ACTUAL NEWS

The realms of Darka, Barony of Makar and Heorot have officially surrendered, knowing the impossible situation before them. The Caglian Empire and their allies have finally secured the entirety of Atamara. The League of the Eagle has begun building ships to bring war to Dwilight, expecting the combined might of all Atamara to be sufficient enough to take on the many realms that comprise Dwilight.

When interviewed, General Enri admitted that this had been the Caglian Empire's plan all along. "We knew we'd be able to take Atamara. You'd be a fool to think defeating Vikings would satisfy us; they were just too lazy to sail to Dwilight!"

Aren't you just a wee bit quick on the crossbow for April Fool's prankery?

But since you;ve started it, I've heard that the Blackest Cult is returning to make amends for their misdeeds.  Apparently they're looking to go on the road as a travelling morality play about the dangers of too much sweets in the diet leading to immorality, assassination and the desire to pet goats.

News Bulletin:

The Cagilan Empire has proclaimed Merlin Silverfire Emperor of Atamara. It turns out that the Prime Minister and General really just wanted to say that they had won Atamara before turning over control to a puppet. Who better than someone who would really think that the DID control things? There was much rejoicing amongst the peasantry because they were each given a loaf of bread in celebration of the event.

Oh heck yes. Give us a cross-island invasion fleet, and I'm pretty sure CE can convince Darka and Heorot to join forces and invade Dwilight. After all, why fight a losing war when you can go loot some poor sap who's weaker than you?

We'll even let you pick whether we attack Aurvandil or SA. Are you listening dev team? ;D

On behalf of the Darkan High Council, we accept your statement of Empire loss and suggest a joint pillaging of Outer Tilog for a brisk game of Peasant Bowling.  If the devs work quick through the next five months, we could be sailing the intercontinental invasion fleet in time for a Rollsovar BBQ.

Mmmm.....BBQ of Eternal Damnation.... ;D

Yes, yes it is. As soon as BoM Eston split, Darka lost the war.

Correction.

Funny thing that we have lost the war, without losing single region, without having any major battle fought on our lands :)

But gotta admit, our situation aint look too bright :P

I'd glady join forces with those fancy pants southerners if it meant looting Dwilight. It'd be shiny, new, and full of lots of fun.

Is Atamara always so quiet in the ruler's channel during a war or does the whole of Atamara just not care? Over half the war declarations against Heorot have gone without anyone bothering to even say why they're doing it.

I figured having a ruler on Atamara for the first time would be a bit more exciting than this, but its turning out to be not a whole lot different than just playing with a bunch of quiet players in the Barony.

Well, you can always go exchange letters with Triple-K and see what it's like to be

GREETING'D!
at the start of every letter.

I've received "strongly worded letters" before iRL, but I can;t help but think I'd pay more attention if they started like that more often.

GREETINGS!

So... are Darka and Heorot the ONLY realms not associated/allied with the Cagilan bloc now? On the entire Island?


How ridiculous is this getting?

Yeah, Atamara is an awful, awful island to be a ruler on. They're all so old and jaded that most of them aren't especially active anymore, so they don't generally bother to say anything beyond what's absolutely necessary. All the important things are decided in private conversations well before something like a declaration of war actually takes place, so once it gets to that point there's nothing that needs to be said; everyone already knows where they stand, so the kind of grandstanding you might want to do on other islands to affect the opinion of neutral realms is almost entirely unnecessary. On Atamara, everyone already knows who's on who's side when the war starts. There are no neutral realms.
