Well. The Madinan Civil War has certainly just seen a major change, what with Fissoa reversing its position. I gotta say, I'm bummed about it, because the alliance to contain Madina was quite entertaining, and the hissy fits across the Candiels Straits are fun to read... I'll be sad if Aurvandil is destroyed.
Blame Aurvandil for sucking at diplomacy so much.
