The battle for Rohrmarch continues

Early in the month of Keltier:

Gavin Tael was busy training his troops.

Boeruine moved some troops northwards, and was otherwise busy overseeing improvements to
Rivien.

Lasica Diem seems to be back. She was seen in Alamier this month.

The Mhor and Shannon Boeruine was involved in a Investiture ceremony this month.
The province of Sufhanie changed hands from Mhoried to Boeruine.
The province will be governed by Shannon Boeruine herself.

Paumel Cariele, a 3rd cousin of the previous Duchess of Coeranys, was instated as Duke of
Coeranys this month. Not much is know about Duke Paumel Cariele, though he's reported
to have been raised in northern Mhoried.

The Imperial Temple of Haelyn was reported to make several offerings to Haelyn on Diemeds behalf.
Haelyn seems to be blessed, as a couple of fields of grain was found standing ready to be harvest.
One of the fields had been harvested once just a few months back.

Guilder Kalien was in a small private meeting with Diirk Waterford.

Troop movement was seen in Markazor. Also training of new troops.

Late in the month of Keltier:

The war continued to rage between the forces of good, and the vile creatures fighting for Gorgon.

The Celestial Jewel of Seramie tried to gather more followers in Bhrein, but those recently
settled in this province, where to busy to attend to any religious functions right now.

Prince Avan announced he would crash down on the pirate nest in Mhowe.
A large fleet, and army was seen to sail out from Avanil.
Some say that the Prince would never have dared to do something like that if Arch-Duke Boeruine
weren't busy fighting the goblins.

The Baroness of Roesone, was said to have been sent to her old teacher to again try to learn something.
Obviously the Baroness aren't all that bright, and was in desperate need of some refreshments
when it comes to how to administer your realm.

Duke Alam started a large, and no doubt expensive, project to fortify his northern provinces.
With the activity in the north, this might not be the dumbest idea.

The Strait of Aerele Shippers was seen to take over the guilds in Brosengae.
These guilds have been for a long time out of operation, with now it seems the SoAS
have made a deal, and became the state approved guild of Brosengae.

Early in the month of Faniele:

Arch-Duke Boeruine lead a new war host into Thurazor.

Again Elenie started making sending more people into the streets of Coeranys
to govern the people there. While some of the men claims to be teachers,
just eager to teach the people what they are supposed to know,
others can no doubt be nothing but hired thugs to make sure LPAs will are heard.
A few days later these people beat up, and scared away the honest workers of
the government of Coeranys.

The Mhor disappeared from Mhoried. Many wonder who are to lead Mhoried now.

Several miracles was seen around in Roesone. Young calves was fattened, and grown
over the night, and the trades of Roesone found that they made twice as much as
they should have compared to what they had sold.

The war between ARF, The Anuirean Relief Force, and VFG, Vile Followers of Gorgon,
continued this month too. Many people in Rohrmarch are tired of the war, and started
packing up their goods to move away. Some even to Anuire.
The war it self didn't go completely as the General Stab of the ARF would want,
as the casualties where high. A mounted army from Binsada came to help with the fighting,
making the ARF capable to continue the fighting.

Late in the month of Faniele:

The Celestial Jewel of Seramie was rumoured to have hired large man for something.
Some say CJS follow the "more is better, and biggest is best" saying, and just want
to hire large merchants to scare away would-be thieves, but other say CJS wanted
a reliable courier.

Lady Siele Ghoried was seen meeting with Marlae Roesone.
No doubt some trade bussiness was discussed.

Boeruine Trading Guild tried yet again and dumb lots of cheap furniture, and goods
on the market in the Imperial City, and thus drive out Princes Pride.
Princes Pride seemed calm, and weathered the hard times, but seemed to getting
angry over BTGs blunt ways, and obvious disregard for agreements.
Princes Pride then sent a few people to set up shop in Seasedge, just to make a point,
but after a few days, they packed up and left. A lot of time spent just to make a point,
but if time is money, well then Princes Pride should have lots of time.

Gaelin Thuried and Adaere Doneim both met unfortunat deaths this month.
While some belive it was accients, the generel agreements where that they where killed.

The province of Osternord, was invested away from Rohrmarcht.
This is a grim day for the civilized world for sure.

Early in the month of Pasiphiel:

More people from Elenie was sent to several provinces of Coeranys to govern the people there.
HA sent their troops to throw out these new people. Obviously the conflict between
LPA and HA isen't quite over yet.

ITH recruited expanded their operation in Tier.

Hearthland Outfitters made a slight recovery in Tier. The people here think it's good that
it finally was done, as it's been months since everything was destroyed by first the spider,
then the undead army.

The war raged on in Rogrmarch. Heavy casulties was inflicted on both sides.
Although it first appered that the Binsadans cavalry had recived a harder blow then
what was the reality. When the trained war horses returned without a rider, they where
counted as dead, but it seems that several people that had been knocked down of
their horses, had decided to wage a gerilia war against VFG instead of returning
to camp, and waiting the battle out.

In Roesone the new guild in Haelynara tried to open up a trade interest in Bellam.
While this might be a good idea, The Spider River Traders, lowered their prizes
so low, and the new shop after just a  few weeks had to start considering to close
down, as no one bothered to shop there.

Celestial Jewel of Seramie built a new large cathedral in Bhrein. The people there
was so impressed by the gilded icons, that the temple promptly gained more followers.
A man was supposed to have said, "that CJS manage to build such expencive places,
just shows the power of Seramie. Hopefully by venerating Seramie, I will gain some
of that wealth too".

Late in the month of Pasiphiel:

Baroness Marlae Roesone where, according to a servent, "talking to some hooded men".
If this is relavant to anything are unclear at the moment.

Arch-Duke Boeruine granted the right of the title Vis-Count of Seasedge, to the family
of a longtime Lieutenant of the Boeruine family. The Lieutenat was also granted
a small manor the the province.

In Ghoere, there where made improvements to the fortifications in Ghiere, and Achiese.

Rumours:

*High ranking members of ITH was seen hanging out on some opium parlors in Ilien.
Maybe this is the reason behind some of the recent decisions.
