Recent
conflict in and around Hochoch has led to the appointment of Watcher
Caticial Fangorn, Vengeful Elder Wyrm, to a new post in Hochoch.
Officially, Watcher Fangorn and his entourage are responsible for
clearing the way for more troops and supplies to enter the war zone.
All work crews and caravans on the Buxton's Crossing to Hochoch route
now report to him. Several rumors make his real purpose out to be
something more sinister, though such rumors have been extremely vague
thus far.
Elector Basilio Gesmundo of Barony Dieren died in honorable combat
with the Champion of the Realm after being brought up on charges of
gross dereliction of duty in regard to recent troubles in Liabac while
he was away attending to personal business in Thornward. He is
succeeded by his 14-year-old son, Esmil. A Regent has been appointed
to oversee the Electorate until Esmil has completed his military
service.

Following
the defeat of the goblinoid forces besieging Fort Endurance in the Dim
Forest, Commandant Magnus Vrianian traveled from Hookhill to
personally recognize the bravery of the fort's defenders in a special
ceremony where he awarded numerous commendations and dedicated a
memorial to those who gave the last full measure of devotion to the
March. He had this to say concerning Gran March's foreign commitments
and recent internal struggles.
"There are those who sit today in foreign capitals and plot to
foment dissent within our borders, foolishly believing that this will
make us turn a blind eye to those who have allied with us against the
blight of evil. I say to them, do not be deceived. The word of the
March is the bond of the March. We will stand, and, as our memory is
long and our courage undaunted, we will one day have our revenge."

Rumors out
of Hochoch have Knight Field Marshal Helanasdotter planning a spring
offensive against the giants in Geoff. Supplies and troops have been
pouring into the region and there are signs of imminent activity.
Gastus Huller, a Geoffite refugee known for his bitter distaste for
the Gran March troops who stand between him and giant stewpot, has
been vocally decrying these rumors, explaining that these signs of
activity are merely intended to appease the refugee community while
Gran March secures its hold on Hochoch.
Through representatives, Knight Field Marshal Helanasdotter has
denounced Huller, though she refuses comment on the rumored campaign.
Huller was overheard in a tavern in Orlane speaking of armed rebellion
against the forces of Gran March. After this report, made by refugees
who have fought and bled along side Gran March forces, Huller was
declared wanted. Anyone with information regarding Huller should
contact the nearest military officer immediately.

Wild rumors
abound that an ancient scroll written by Trilesimain was found in the
Rushmoors. Goblin raids have increased along the Dim Forest road. Only
quick action by our brave soldiers kept vital war supplies from being
stolen by the cunning raiders. Raids have also increased against the
horse farms near the Dim Forest in Barony Malthinius. In other news,
setbacks have plagued the Herdmasters Guild in their rebuilding of a
ruined keep northwest of Hookhill. Some (mostly members of the
Farmer's Grange) speculate that the repairs will not be completed in
time for the Herdmasters to claim the land.

Vitness
Tragorn, Warden of the Rush March, reports that the Flan barbarians of
the Rushmoors have been restless of late and issued a warning to be
wary and avoid travel deep into the moors. The road improvement
between Buxton's Crossing and Hochoch is proceeding apace, having
reached the edge of the Dim Forest. The work crews have been
reinforced for the massive wood cutting and paving required for the
next stage of development. Gault Stalmir, Warden of the Dim March,
addressed concerns about increased goblin activity there. "Those
who spread rumors of large numbers of goblins operating in the Dim
Forest are sadly misinformed. Our patrols have found only scattered,
ragtag bands numbering fewer than a score."
Military Dispatch
Due to losses suffered in the Battle of Bloody Ridge, the Gran March
military is now at a state of high alert. This means that:
1. All veterans should be ready to report at a days notice and return
to active duty. Travel outside of the March must be reported to your
militia commander. (Out of Character: For now, all travel waivers will
be granted but this could change.)
2. All situations should be considered threatened.
Adventurer's Story
Tarcenian Nightstar (Paul Zellem, Florence, SC), an elf of Gran
March, recently found himself stationed in the Principality Ulek,
where elves are not held in high regard. He was overcharged for a
broken spear but continued to perform his duty with distinction,
uncovering a band of humanoid spies and rescuing some halfling scouts
that had gone missing. When offered payment for his assistance,
Tarcenian returned the money, saying, "The army of the Gran March
does not require payment for assisting our 'less fortunate neighbors'."
Rumors Recently Overheard
The giants in Geoff are planning a counter-strike into Gran March
territory. They're building enormous seige engines to launch
themselves across the Javan and then sneak through the Rushmoors to
attack Orlane.
Former Commandant Petros has returned and Magnus Vrianian will soon
be stepping down so that he may resume his duties. He apparently was
on a long religious pilgrimage to visit every temple and shrine of
Heironeous in the Flanaess. His hair is now a snowy white and he
speaks with even greater assurance than before.
An old religion has resurrected itself in the Rushmoors. Wild stories
are circulating about animal and possibly even human sacrifices.
A devastating sickness has hit Fort Tribulation. Most of the troops
within lie sick and unable to defend the fort. Word is that the
lizardmen are responsible. |
