Slaughter in Unagae
Date: Nov. 27 2005

A huge battle took place in Abykal with aproximatley 1000 men on each side. A blood bath was assured. Castimir lead his force in a standard Ikalakian formation with archers infront, infantry behind and Calvary as heavy support, while Sebastian chose a fortification defence formation even though there was no avaiable walls. The Ikalakian force rushed forward into a hail of archer fire from the superior Sandalak bowmen before rushing into close combat. The traitor Jair was captured quickly by Ikalakian forces after he was surrounded by Ikalakian infantry. The Ikalakian infantry continued there steady advance on the right flank however the Ikalakian calvary had smashed through the first rank of the Sandalakian infantry and had left themselves dangerously over stretched. Sandalaks calvary then charged the unsupported infantry in the middle of Ikalaks battle line. With the two flanks of Ikalak cut off from each other it wasnt long before the right infantry flank collapsed however Sandalak was preventedfrom charging the remaining vulnerable bowmen thanks to a brave last stand from the Ikalak General who drove his Mumakil straight into the right flank of Sandlak, delaying them before he was finaly overrun, wounded in the process, with the wounding of Castimir, the remaining Ikalak forces were quickly eliminated by the bows and swords of Sandalak.

The cheers of Sandalak were short lived however when reinforcements arrived for Ikalak, outnumbered nearly 2-1 the forces of Sandalak were easily defeated and the take over of Unagae was stopped.

Ikalaks prayer answered?
Date: Nov. 20 2005

Ikalak has looked very weak as of late, even the victories over Sandalak have been hollow, for every battle they win they lose three skirmishes. All hope seemed to be lost for them with there council in turmoil and indesicion and chaos in the high council with some members who have been found to be clearly corrupt while others were nothing more then thieves. However it seemed negotiations between Lone Wolf and Yavanna may of actually had some effect. One Taselak battle group broke off there attack on an Ikalak territory (costing Taselak a victory) and began a takeover in Toren Stronghold. This territory was banned from being taken over by either side according to an ammended contract which the battle group leader claimed was void since the leader of Sandalak had changed since the contract was made. Lone Wolf has been unavailable for comment but seems to have let this Taselak loosecannon take over his part of the army away from the actual General. This breach of the treaty has not gone unnoticed by the other two realms. After the various spys caught on all three sides of the war no realm can claim to be the honourable one, but mearly the least dishonourable. Reguardless of this fact fierce fighting continues around the region of Aboal and Unagae while Taselaks army regroups.
