Year 2067 AC

---

The horns of war had been ongoing during the entirety of this year as the fight between New Dexia and the Golden Horde had reached an ultimatum.
The Bats of Nyt'jhem writing upon a ritual on the walls; an act that had been seen by them, and yet none who attempted to stop it. A destruction to an unknown variable that would only be seen during the aftermath.

The day of the war had come; a bloodied battle on both sides, the outcome to be decided by the leaders of both Dexia and the Magyars.
A battle of Fire and Ice, a song of clashing blades. Drakanite upon drakanite, rage versus a joy of battle inevitably leading to a close finale -- Taglia Djulkorren, fallen by the hands of Elvira Kerekes.
Overshadowing the victory however was the moonbeam obliterating New Dexia.

Absolute destruction. Hundreds, gone.
Taglia given a warriors death, life force fed to the fire spirit born recently; allowed a peaceful passing.

• New Dexia is no more. Vengeance for their fallen Kargan had been successful, and their initial goal of forcing the enemy off of their holy sands has been done. No more do the Magyars have a bone to pick with those of New Dexia, albeit the Dexians most likely shall hold one forevermore. The breadth of the destruction of lives claimed through a literal moon nuke perhaps has left a sour taste within the Khans' mouth.
  
• In light of new information received, Liviana Na'hrem is no longer under the protection of the Horde nor of Elvira personally. A momentary grace period has been given to the bat of Nyt'jhem by the Khan in order to honour all that they had been through together - but others' hands are not stayed during this period. It is noted through the whispers of the swordsmen by those passing that once this grace period is over, the Kerekes herself will be hunting the Na'hrem to also honour an agreement made with Lirael Equisol of Aphros.
  
• Amidst all of this, the Horde can be seen once again preparing themselves - but for what? Whatever it is, it's quite obvious that they remain as busy as ever in the light of their victory. Perhaps plans to initiate growth further into their holy dunes?
  
• Prior to the war, Kasia has been named Tarqan - Head Smith - as well as emissary of relations between the Horde and the Frontier. Those who live in the Frontier and wish to try and broker some sort of deal are encouraged to speak to her.
  
• In light of the victory, plans for a Kurultai are also underway; but this Kurultai in particular seems to be... different than the last, somewhat changed from a simple Rite of Initiation.
  
• New Dexians are no longer at risk of being hunted.
  
• Mercenary contracts are re-opened, although it remains to be seen if any truly wish to deal with the Horde in this manner. Old bounties are once more reignited; witch hunting and demon hunting have begun in full.
