Assassination!

Or an attempt, anyway. It's certainly got things fired up in the Ruler's Channel.

Wait, what? So, there's a possibility of a near future war not involving any gang-bang to OW? Sweet!

Lame! We'll just have to make sure OW is wiped out before we start anything serious.

(Still haven't heard anything about this IC though.)

Nothing at all? An assassin was caught trying to murder Galiard while he was on a state visit to Kindara. This is complicated by the fact that the assassin was a member of Kindara, and kinsman to the Kindaran duke that was hosting the visit.

Oh that. I thought you meant something more current. That was, what, 4 days ago?

Yes. Yes, it was.

Still a lot of back and forth in the Ruler's Channel, with little resolution in sight.

I hadn't really heard anything about it since it happened. I had assumed it was mostly a non-event, or already resolved. But I see that Caspius just did a message dump. Kind of entertaining.

Yeah, war seems pretty likely at this point. Be interesting to see who it ends up involving, exactly.

I got your resolution right here!

Whelp, I'm sure that we can find time to take care of OW as well as Kindara. The big obstacle at the moment is coming up with a name for the new colony - the Sartanian Grand Duchy of Sasrhas perhaps?

I wouldnt get your hopes up.

Not everyone wants to be stuck with you stuffy Sartanian types this far south!

This is not the war I expected to be having right now.
