Quote:

"Symbolism runs in the very blood of this city's veins and this tradition we will maintain as we usher in a new era.

Once it was named Elysium to rival the Helscape of Asphodel, then New Tannen to mirror the ambitions of the first king of Barsburg.

We do not turn our back upon these values but instead we seek to expound upon them.

   

Here we give homage to fires man first used to forge their destiny upon Esshar.

We have hammered out our flaws through the anvil of conflict and now quench our fortunes with the sweat of our brows..

..To bring progress to the world.

  

This is a day to rejoice and celebrate for now in Promethia, City of The First Flame, Synthetics shall stand side by side as our equals for the first time as we march toward that progress. Flesh and metal shall work in tandem to give our gifts unto the world."

  

- Oznan, first Marquis of Promethia, 1907 AC

  
AC 1910
 
From the realm of monsters news begins to travel. The years of construction and amassing of armies have came to a close. In a grand speech to the assembled creatures of the shadows, from the vile schemers to the towering destroyers. A clear direction has been granted to the assembled nations. 

The Destruction of Osrona.

Quote:

The time has come! After a century of toil the foundations of this Kingdom are strong and our bonds secured. Now we are stronger than we have ever been! They had believed for to long that we were weak, divided, easy pickings to be left in the hands of their vassals while they played with the Ebon to the north.

 

We shall begin the march to bathe this continent in the blood of the Lion! From the shadowed savannah to the shimmering city! The age of light is ended far to slowly, why don't we help snuff the last candles? Make them fear the dark!

 

Timete tenebris!

• In a shocking revelation to the general populace the identity of an old student of Nanzo's is revealed. Noctis unmasked as she returns to the side of her teacher. A Vorso once more stood with the Mire's children.
  

• For his initiative and leadership displayed in the recent Galamean raid. Clare Adelman has been risen to the rank of Myrmidon and named warmaster in the efforts against the shadowed savanna's people. 
  

• Due to his eternal vigilance and brutal rooting out of spies and traitors. Virion has been risen to the ranks of Myrmidon. They have also finally showcased themselves worthy to be declared the Tyrants heir for the Dreadwood's throne. Jockeying past his many half-siblings for the position.
  

• During the great gathering the Jarl of Clan Maekir, Meiroida, was apprehended by Virion as the blood-shark attempted to fight their way out of the city. Despite an impressive showing of power the young Jarl's aid granted to the Galameans in the recent conflict was met with a swift sentence from Promethia's Duskcaller. Death.
  

• As common cause is made with the Ebonblooded against the Osronans a reminder is given. Naysien remains a banned deity within the realms of the Tyrant. Proselytizing remains punishable by death.

"Too long have the oppressive forces of Osrona dictated the morals and restrictions of Esshar. If we are to progress as a country, if our nations are to advance, we cannot be inhibited by the blind zealotry of the Shimmering City.

Break

For the freedom of religion, the freedom of knowledge, and the freedom of existence for all; man and monster.

Break

Novus marches."

Break

-Chancellor Eris Vorso

 
Affluent citizens from Novus and Promethia gather before the corrupted forests deep in the heartlands of Nanzonia wherein the Marquis Oznan and daughter of the Vorso family are married, solidifying the alliance between the two, and where news is revealed first to the loyal people before it reaches the world at large. In the speech following the wedding, the Marquis revealed his connection to the city of Osrona.
   
  

Quote:

"Today I offer a binding name unto my wife, Krov Vorso, but also unto my city and citizens, but.. That begs the question, what bonds does this name hold?
 
When I initially returned to Esshar, my father gave me freedom to explore the world and form my own opinions. I journeyed from Osrona to Galamea, and my travels eventually brought me to Majin Okabe, who ironically rekindled a connection to the Grimmores as it had been in the past. The total decadence and impurity of Osrona, the deviation behind their light of hypocrisy, was first exposed by the House Grimmore.

  

It's only natural that the Montclaire family, the Grimmore's stalwart bannermen, should stand in opposition alongside them once more. My ancestor's insurrection gained the faith's support, but even though he reigned on the throne, Romani Montclaire was unable to hold the city. These failures are just one of many, because everyone has attempted to keep control of the stones rather than grind them to dust.

  

Celestialism is an illness, and we are the cure. Let them know that the blood of Grimmore and Montclaire is once again united, but we are not conquering the land this time. 

 

We are cleansing the land of light."

- Oznan Montclaire, 1911 AC, upon the marriage vows.

1911 AC

A final, thunderous clash finally concludes the power struggle in Moxtli.
Amidst the chaos emerges Amaranthis Meztin as the Voice of the Tribes all.
The following missive is given in brief;

Quote:

"For too long, has Moxtli remained in slumber. For too long, has Moxtli retained neutrality as enemies flourished."

"Yet none longer. So long as I have the crumb of a breath to speak, we will be quiet a second more."

"I am Amaranthis, the Voice of Moxtli. I speak not for myself, but for all."

"I speak the wrath of my warriors, the will of the Spirits."

"I shall listen, more than I speak."

"And so say we all."

Quote:❀ The World Tree Seed is yet at its infancy, but rituals will soon occur open to the general public to aid it in its growth.

❀ The Grace family have been pardoned for their previous acts. Maple Grace is invited to remain an Elder, to some controversial opinion.

❀ Moxlian warriors begin to converge anew. An offensive front is soon to be declared, yet against whom remains only among rumors.

 
 
"skies clear overhead,
 
the roll of thunder quiet,
 
but, a new storm builds"
 

Quote:

☥ - Aurella Dayndros announces her official retirement.
 
☥ - The title of High Lord has been given to Nolan Dayndros. Armani Dayndros named Lorespeaker in tandem. Though he lacks a title, Hale Dayndros's efforts to preserve the Rhoynish ways and his talents have bought him a seat at the ruling table. The trio to function together to lead Galamea to a bright new age.
 
☥ - With the lack of Vanir representation within Galamea's daily activities and battles, Aurella Dayndros has announced that the High Lord will from here on control all say within the region. Any Vanir that wish to stand against such a claim have been directed to the new ruling heads.
 
☥ - There are rumors of a declined alliance with Osrona, even if the ruling parties do favor them as friends. Ilian is free to do what they please as individuals.

Quote:❀ The World Tree Seed is safe despite an attempted siege upon it, and preparations are underway for its hatch at last.

❀ Fliers and posters standing coalition with Osrona have been removed from Moxtlian boards. It seems the agreement has come to its end, yet no reason is given just yet. Through one reason or another, the two nations have failed to establish an alliance, returning to neutrality.

❀ Warriors of the tribe will now be selected from among apprentices, when they display feats strength, Shamans of the tribe will now be chosen by the Voice of the tribes. An apprentice to bring the Voice a piece of the enemy of their skill will be promoted to a warrior without question.

❀ Rumors of a large project travel among the streets of Moxtli, as construction resumes for the city's expansion. The words 'Spirit Forge' are used plenty.

❀ Sariel ven Pelleaux, now deceased, and his next of kin have been declared honorary members of Clan Meztin, for his display of honor and bravery by Amaranthis Meztin, the head of Clan Meztin.

❀ Relations with the Ebonblooded stand tense. The Voice of the Tribes has explicitly suggested that they are one transgression away from a declaration of war.

❀ When asked about the next Voice of Moxtli in case she falls in battle, the Voice has said the following:

"Whoever deserves it, will take it."

"Novus has been a dream come true, but after decades dedicated to the city it is time the City of Progress continues to progress into the future. With full confidence, I lift the crown from my head and name the new Chancellor of Novus.

Please rise for Chancellor Sol Vanrouge."
