Year 23

[Sypher]

Well, its the first day of spring of Year 23 in Dwilight. I thought it might be of value to have a thread to discuss the events that happen during the next in-game year.

Here in the southwest, Falkirk is starting off the year with only it's capital left but Aurvandil has vowed to restore Madina Isle to Falkirk. Aurvandil however faces internal challenges (to put it mildly) and the recent loss of Tovabur on Falmilak Isle to Fissoa. Meanwhile, Luria Nova has been slowly gaining strength as it absorbs the former lands of Luria Vesperi.

[Baatarsaikhan]

Well, this is only for Iashalur, or Niselur since the rename.


The tale end of the rebellion has more or less arrived, with the formal crowning of the King and his two Dukes.  Things are still somewhat hazy as to the monarchy as a whole, since King Leopold recently invited Sir Tugomir Bribir Lux to the country and set tongues wagging by immediately appointing him General of the Niselur forces.


Plague is in the process of taking four people:

   
• Lady Farahnaz, who may be a unknown blood relation to the Mendicant family from the south.
• Lady Amelia, Lord Allan and Sir North'n, who apparently are unrelated to the Mendicant family, but were likely participating in foul perversion of some sort.  Why else would the gods strike them down?

Winter has left, and for once there has been no starvation in any of the regions, despite several knights away crusading, defending the homelands, and the rebellion aftereffects.


Expansion is expected to proceed just as planned, although the low numbers of nobles in the land may present issues with land being properly stewarded.

The wedding of the Dragon King-elect, Machiavel Chénier (Duke of Paisly, Margrave of Paisland, Royal and Ambassador of D'Hara, etc.) with the deceased king's daughter, Dragon Princess Selena Ironsides, is planned for the first day of Summer, the 26th of April.

Astrum wins huge victory over Asylon due to incompetent leadership, Asylon destruction imminent.

[Glaumring the Fox]

Huge victory? You have lost ever fight we've had until this last one.

[Indirik]

Wait... Astrum wins huge victory over Asylon due to incompetent leadership... who's incompetent leadership, Astrum's or Asylons's? ???

[Kwanstein]

The incompetence is widespread, no one side in particular is at fault.

Asylon missed a chance at a huge victory, though. Had they attempted to bait the Astrum army with a misdirection rather than with the real thing then they would have annihilated the Astrum vanguard today.

[Glaumring the Fox]

Yeah would have been nice but it was a risk we couldnt afford to take. Hindsight 20/20. We have a plan but it has nothing to do with fight on Astrums terms lol

[Indirik]

The incompetence is widespread, no one side in particular is at fault.

Sadly enough, I have to agree with that.

[Glaumring the Fox]

That being said whatever casus belli Astrum and its alliance is no more and now they wage a war of pure aggression. Asylon fights on alone.

??? Didn't you ally Asylon with Aurvandil? I haven't been on Dwilight in a while, but IMO that's all the casus belli Astrum would ever need, to be honest.

The Farronite Republic is "welcoming" Allison and her followers, with the ruler Khari trying her best to convince the rest of the realm that we need nobles more than we hate Allison...

Meanwhile, we have vote on and agreed to join the moot... which seems somewhat of a moot point with Terran in the condition that they are in.

Psh, boot Allison.

And the future of the Moot... we'll see. Even if Terran doesn't pull through, it's possible Phantaria or Saffalore may eventually want membership.

[Vellos]

Heck, or maybe even Swordfell.

[Geronus]

Psh, boot Allison.

But she's so much fun. Sure, she's going to be a pain in the ass, but the next six months of your life will be way more interesting with her around than otherwise.
