Perdanese Monarch captured in failed attack

As the night fell upon the East Continent to bring an end to yet another day, the armies of Perdan, Fontan and Sirion were once more engaged in the savage war which is from all reports a seeming stalemate. However, unlike this battle for Perdan, who in recent weeks has had much success against her adversaries, the impetuous Perdanese nobles arrived in far fewer numbers than the defending troops and were delivered a heavy defeat in the region of Bescanon to the north of Perdan City, though further information gives light to heavy casualties which were also inflicted upon their opponents.

This failed attack, which resulted in the wounding and capture of many has also unfortunately resulted in the capture of the Perdanese Queen, Clarissa. It shall be an interesting turn of events to see what Fontan does to her while she languishes in a prison in Westmoor, for it is widely known that she has dealt some insult to the Fontanese Chancellor Gregor. The Old Rancagua Press will keep you as updated as possible on this matter....

Itoruntian High Marshal killed!

News has only just reached the Press in the north of an unfortunate turn of events which have befallen the southernmost realm of Itorunt. In a shocking occurence, the only newly appointed High Marshal of Itorunt, Alex (who was also the Editor-in-chief of the controversial but acclaimed newspaper, the Itorunt Informer) was slain just days after his appointment to the top military job.

The battle unfortunately, was only a minor skirmish in the region of Igno just south of the Capital of Yssaria and Alex it is told, fell due to highly unlucky circumstances. The Old Rancagua Press mourns with Itorunt for his loss, and sends their condolences to the realm of Itorunt and the Itoruntian Informer, he shall surely be missed. Inside reports in Itorunt have delivered us news that Alex's replacement is a noble by the name of Wilfred, a former Division commander and reasonably experienced military leader. The Old Rancagua Press wishes him luck in his future endeavours as Itorunt's chief military offical.
