War rages on in Rhumacht

Raids, and invation of Cariele
Disorder in Mhoried

Early in the month of Haelynir:

The army from Kiergard, after making sure Osernord was properly under their sway,
they moved into the province of Oden. In Oden a new large battle was fought.
The defenders fought valiently against the armies from the north, and managed to
refrain from giving away much land.

Boeruine lead an army into the Gorge, and Storm's Release. The fighting was harsh,
but Boeruine saying that, "The Goblins have harrashed the people of Anuire for the last
time. They need to be though a lesson, that anyone messing with those allied to me,
won't live long".

In Mhoried a rescue party was sent to get Michael Mhoried back, but they where unsuccessful.
Mhoried mustered 2 new units, a Cavalry and a Scout to help with this.

In Coeranys the fighting went on. The forces of the Empire, represented mainly by The Holy
Order of Haelyn's Aegies, and the Military Order of Cuiraecen, have almost killed all of
the merchenaries who invaded.

Endier was very busy talking to verious people this month.

Late in the month of Haelynir:

Markazor continued to build on their fortifications in Riverspring, and in the Shattered Hills.
They also again started with a new fort in Brushfire.

ITH gathered up new new settlers in Ilien. Some outright said they where paid to sign up with
the ITH congression. Probably ITH wants to gain more hold over the Ilian Senate.

El-Hadid opened up a new traderoute between Ilien and the east.

Late in the month of Haelynir:

The Baroness of Roesone, tried to bring more people in to Bellam.
With so many other more interesting places to live, not many wanted to listen to her.

The Overland/Highland Traders removed the last influnce of the guild of Diirk Waterford
from Osoerde.

Gigants and Orogs made a raid into Cariele. Prince Avan is said to that they his the targets
he would, if he where probing for weaknessess.

Early in the month of Anarire:

The Kiergards troops won over the troops in Oden. The remaining troops retreated into
the battlements. The Kiergards troops started laying siedge on the castles right away.

Diemed made a new offical Lieutenant.

Duchess Aubrae Avan made the Law more felt in Brosengae.

Haelyns Aegies crushed the remains of the merchenary army.

Guilder Kalien was said to be seen in Elenie, and on a both headed to the far East.

Late in the month of Anarire:

ITH had gained more followers in Lyssan.

Gigants and Orogs are said to have invaded Cariele.

Early in the month of Deismir:

The battlements in Oden are said to have fallen. This means a very bad time ahead of Rhumarch.
Rhumarch are said to have sent requests of help to Anuire though.

Gavin Tael was seen traveling to Mhoried. He is said to be conserned with the defence against
the Gorgon that Mhoried had held the last two months.

Arch-Duke Boeruine made a new invation of Thurazor. "These filty best need to know
that Anuire is superior to all when it comes to warfare. We will accept for the filth
to come talk to us about peace, now that they see that we sit with all the cards."

Duke Diem made a move towards the Nobles in Endier. Guilder Kalien set aside
a lot of the power the nobles possessed a few years back, and several seems to be
wondering if maybe new rule would be for the best. Representatives from the Endierian
security forces talked to the conserned nobility afterwards, and it seems they've changed
their minds again. It's quite clear that Guilder Kalien has strenghtened Endier is the new
line of the day.

LPA built a new temple in Ranien. After it was finished several new faithful started attending
the mass.

The troops from Haelyn's Aegies attacked, and won over the last forces of the previous
Duchess of Coeranys.  She, and her closest attendents, have been put under arrest,
and will be sent for an Imperial Court at the earliest opertunity.

Arch-Prelate Briesen is said to have talked to several nobles in Diemed.
Most of them are those who sits on key positions in the Dieman military.
What this means are above our knowledge. Maybe ITH wants to have a new
war with Diemed?  Maybe ITH is finansing a rebellion in Diemed?
Or maybe Briesen just though these people haven't been ferment enough in their
attendence of church meetings.

Guilder Kalien was busy having several Traderoutes set up.
But he was a little unlucky this month it seems, both a route he oversaw,
and one his Lieutenat tried, had a severe run in with the law.
In their haste to set up a routes betwwen Moere and Aerele, Guilder Kalien
drow the caravans fast. In Aerele this had an unlucky outcome.
A finanlly dressed Lord was overran by a big coatch rushing to bring in wares
to the local Hearthland Outfitters warehouse.
It came clear afterwards that this Lord was an offical diplomat from Arch-Duke Boeruine,
on his way to talk to Duke Diem.
The Count of Redoubt, the father of the young Lord, has demanded the life of both the coatch
drivers, and Guilder Kalien as the man responcible for it all.
The coatch drivers was all arrested, and is now sitting in the dungeons in the Dukes palass.
It seems the Duke found this matter serious enough to take into his own hands.
How this will turn out are still not clear.
Another sad moment for Guilder Kalien will be when he discovers that one of the routes he tried
to open wasn't a success after all. He was senting supplies to Duene, but it seems that town is
already fully supplied by The Strait of Aerele Shipping.

Late in the month of Deismir:

Adaeron was seen talking with the Baroness of Roesone. Some speculate she was asking
how the Faith of Haelyn would react to her braking up a Lawfully enected marriage under
the eyes of Haelyn.  While we don't know how the Baroness felt after this meeting, Arch-Bishop
Adaeron was seen humming on his way back to Ilien.

After two months of helping Tuornen, and promissing them support, some nobles have voiced that
Tuornen should just becomes vassals of Avanil. Afterall the Prince have show how much he
cares for the people.

The Baroness of Roesone took a more personal approch to get people to Bellam, and it seemed
to work. All of a sudden a lot of people started to move towards Bellam.

Gulfport also seems to have become a spot people wants to live in.

Boeruine Trading Guild set up more trade.

And it seems that the war in Cariele is going bad. The Orogs, and Gigants, together with powerful foul
magic, nearly wiped out the Cariele army.
