2017AC

In the years since the reformation of Dal'Thala into a Diarchy, many events and decisions have been made both within and without, along with steps in the right direction towards the advancement of technology and faith in the city.

• After the sudden outbreak of Red Psychosis, King Lionel Avarion has swiftly become the leading expert in the disease- assisting in the treatment of and even managing to cure two individuals. 
  
• Many of the refugees of Ryai'Sumar have moved to the city-state, with most of those displaced being welcomed warmly.
  
• The Elzara were reinstated under a new commander and recruitment has been opened for all interested. Training regimens have begun being regularly hosted within the city grounds in preparation for the war to come.
  
• A peace treaty with the Sacred State of Aphros was negotiated, and war was declared on Vdalion.
  
• The eastern district of Amaryllis was constructed- a district that will be the station of the Elzara, as well as home to a public event room that is planned to be loaned out to those who wish to host sermons, gatherings, or events of that ilk.
  
• A new Faeborne House is appointed as many names that used to be well-known within the city faded away. House Elythine, headed by Orlisarte Elythine, is the new Noble House that is to be one of the pillars of Dal'Thala. Discussions of further reforms and changes to the Nobility are pending.
  
• An alliance with the Freeport of Fortune has been struck after the execution and joint sacrifice of the Cultist, Dauntless, and with it, Dal'Thala is officially in conflict with the Sunken Order.
  
• Research on the runeoaks, and the creation of a religious sect that shall focus its sights on such task, have begun in full force.
  
• Sounds have begun to be heard from the cave beneath the Whispering Oak. Many residents of Dal'Thala have noticed an increase in the number of Greathive drones skittering around the city. A new Queen has been found. Yet, notably, King Vessix Aonachd has not spoke much of such, and continues to serve in his position as one of the Kings of the Diarchy.
  

Aphros - Friendly

Vdalion - Hostile

The warhorns of the Kingsmoot were blown in earnest upon the battlefield of the Mootgrounds, freshly blooded by the conflict in which its defense was ensured. Here, the great voices of the north spoke in earnest, prophecies were made, and an order assembled not just amongst Vdalion’s succession, but also that of the Tal.



Offering these words as a speech to the gathered peoples of the north, the one eyed Hofgothi of the Zealots of Ymir would have this to say of the proceedings.

Quote:“My prophecy is certain; the flame prince will march upon the great tree and immolate himself in its tainted lumber. From the flame will rise the chosen one, the path of Prince Glufdor is certain. Surtyr claims the throne in the meantime beside Kane, and of the two great necromancers that could have become Tal, a pact was forged and the infamous felinae necromancer of Aphros made heir to the new Tal Samir. So begins the age of flame, and the great war that will turn Meranthe upon its head. Ymir’s heart shall beat again my brothers, this I swear on the blood of kings." - Shaggard DeGray

2020AC

The recent events have left Dal'Thala in a state of dimmed morale. The recent attack from Vdalion was warded off, though the cost was perhaps too great.

Aphros - Friendly

Vdalion - War

                             
                                          
                                                             

                                    

trials for the next Oracle are held, in the interim an interesting choice for leadership arises…

Hadrian Dominic’s successor within the Church, Logan Ackers, has been named as the interim leader of Aphros until the next trial is held.

In recent days, activity has once resumed upon what was formerly known as the Isle of Icaria. Changes to the development of it's exterior, and more recent renovations to the church have been made to accomodate a differing audience than what was originally intended for the followers of Athelios.

-

From a place that were once under the complete hold of Aphros as a sub settlement, has become neutral ground for any and all who commit themselves to Faith in the Primordials. The ten of the Pantheon now have a place where all are welcome, to convene in matters of the betterment of Meranthe as a whole; a place of positive development.

-

Rumor states of a robed figure, roughly five and a half foot tall, talking on the matter of the subject. From settlement to settlement does the figure travel, speaking of a safehaven upon the former Isle. They have named themselves Oathmaker, the advent of Enarr, and the coordinator of the Pantheon.

Quote:"People of Meranthe,

I come to you this day, offering unity. Meranthe, the land we call our own... Falls to shambles before a threat beyond our realm. The darkest corner of the Cosmos, this threat arises from Hel itself.

Need I mention the names, that we all know?

I have seen firsthand the destruction before us, if we do not take this matter into our own hands. Thus, I call those of Faith forward in this time, to act. For where we do not, the oppression upon Meranthe will only continue to grow.

To you, children of Ymir, and those birthed of her therein... I offer you a haven. A place to grow amidst one another. Free of political strife, the Pantheon shall see no war that would tear this land apart more than it has become. A place where we may all become something better, as the Primordial's intended.

I invite you, o'faithful, to the Pantheon of Man."

-Oathmaker

'Meranthe,
My council has sent their regards. Their warning and suggestions. Offered uplifting, safety under my banner and throne in all it's strength.
Your culture, and your legacies, will be preserved as they once were under the Great. Our conquest will not stop at Meranthe.
The very fabric of the realms is discordant. Beneath our feet lie untold powers, chained in sacrifice and unending vigil.
Children of Felfyraxes. Ancient civilizations. Primordial knowledge.'
 
 
 
'So I extend my hand in offer a final time. Unshackle yourselves from splintered governments.
From fear of what Meranthe was once in a golden era. Rejoin the true empire of Meranthe and see the next era, or drown in pride.
The primordials will not deliver you as Ymir once did. Amier, in your young dialects. They themselves could not restore order to the realms.
Busy in the disconnected machinations of their thought godhood. Exalt your gods in their true form. Their aspects shining their brightest once more.
Or perish with them.'
