The City of Magic:
1808 AC
The highlights of the past year are the victories Osrona achieves on both the northern and southern front of the war. The Deep Company is repelled and the treasure obtained from victory is immediately redirected back into the city. With their claim at Baleford fortified and garrisoned, the City of Magic takes a key forward position in the war.
On the matter of internal news, there's a clear direction to focus on building up infrastructure in the less fortunate districts of Osrona. The Faith has been taking a frontline role in providing homes for the homeless and food for the poor. Alongside this, some smaller pieces of legislation have passed.
Addressing his people once victory comes, Archmage Amori takes to the stage:
Quote:"Two victories back to back against both the Fireblooded and the Deep Company has cemented us as a city to be respected, however our enemies made a grave mistake in sentencing our citizens to death.
They've awoken something within us. A light that fills our chest. A resolve that will bend mountains and part the seas.
Like hyenas they flocked, clawing at this lion's ankles and then claim unjust when we bite back.
They mistook Osrona's mercy for weakness - her kindness for stupidity.
We returned Balmung as a sign of goodwill to the Temple of the Fireblooded and it did naught but turn such a blade against us.
No longer will Osrona and her people shy away from her rich history trying to appease inconsistent demands.
I am proud of Osrona and our blood that runs red with all of the Heroes that came before us.
Dragonlords and Varceal, I'm talking to you now. I told your brother to soar high and he flew into the sun and now you lead your people to their deaths, unable to accept justice decreed. It's war you wish? Then so be it.
I've realised trying to appeal to reason won't work, so instead it will be our iron will you'll see.
You started this war but Osrona will be the one to end it."
With a fire stoked in their chests and momentum at their backs, the esteemed Order of Second Dawn charges from their position at Baleford Bridge to the nearby Tarian Mounterlands. Another claim of territory is made. If they're capable of taking this territory, it'll put them on the map on the western side of the country; adding to the Celestial Territory and Baleford Bridge they currently occupy.
Naturally The Faith of Osrona is spread to the towns and cities the knights occupy. The Order of Dawn offers enlistment opportunities as well. Due to these efforts, the number of cadets and soon-to-be knights is on the rise.
