| More Sordnaz Letters |
| The York Journal has received copies of the following letters sent to all the rulers of Atamara. In the interest of providing the complete story to our readers we have decided to publish them as they relate to the prior article. Both were sent yesterday around the same time.
Letter 1: Greetings I dont know who is spreading rumours around this world but right now the Barony seams to be a favourite subject as both I and my general have received several messages from different realms asking if or even why we are to attack them. They all had more or less reliable sources telling them that BoM was comming their way, one ruler didnt beleive it and told me right up that it was a lie but why bothering me if he was sure about it? Fact is that my hordes where travelling south and ended up in MI, I kicked them out of there and sent them home as they couldnt hold a map straight. They had no real rally point but orders to follow federated borders, ...peaceful mission by vikings? During this last week I have been thinking (tried to) and analyzing my relations with other realms and the history behind them, some needs to be altered in order to show the presence and not the past. Sordnaz Dictator of Barony of Makar, Duke of Sale, Marshal of the Makarian Peace Corps. Letter 2: One small error. Fact is that my hordes where travelling south and ended up in MI Fact is that my hordes where travelling south and ended up in Winwich a region under Norland banner but still disputed as Minas Ithils claim on it was so fresh that the paint hadnt dried yet. Sordnaz Dictator of Barony of Makar, Duke of Sale, Marshal of the Makarian Peace Corps. By Relkin Sypher May 3, 2007 |
| Barony of Makar Troops in Winwich |
| As Norland succeeded in their brutal takeover of Winwich, Barony of Makar had troops just across the river in Mansbridge. In the time since the takeover BoM troops have been repeatedly seen in Winwich. Its unclear what Sordnaz's motivations are in allowing this but they do not appear friendly to the people of Minas Ithil. These actions appear especially egregious since this happened mere days after the Treaty with Abington to limit the war to only Norland and Minas Ithil forces.
In response to our King's letter Sordnaz replied with the following: My men where simply strolling along the river and due to bad communication some went over a bridge when they found one, just lucky that it wasnt filled with nasty MI soldiers as they would surely have attacked my men without asking. No harm done and I have used my power to override any unclear order given by the general, in other words my men will stroll on the right side of the river without tresspassing into any disputed regions or into a battle with MI nobles. The answer I got from one viking was that he saw the federated banner on the south side of the bridge and as orders were he was allowed to go there, when the order was issued winwich was under the MI banner... Sordnaz Dictator of Barony of Makar, Duke of Sale, Marshal of the Makarian Peace Corps. Two days after this letter was sent some Barony troops remain in Winwich. By Relkin Sypher May 1, 2007 |
