[Kiha]

 

 

 Vdalion's warhorns and blackened banners remained upon their mountain for the last four years, in a time of fragile, faux peace that was shattered when tragic deaths piled up at the hands of fel magi and their machinations. Yet upon the dawn of the final year before the next election blackened banners are hoisted high upon the cliffs, their shadows an omen of the strife to come. Great legions once more emerge from the north as preparation for war ensues. In the midst of this uneasy time, a Moot adjourns and with it's conclusion the next chapter of the frozen north's unyielding efforts to restore their former glory begins, starting with Ryai'sumar.
 
Town criers relay the events that took place betwixt the Standing Stones and word spreads through caravans and relocating bands of Huskarl as weeks pass.
 
 

'After stating her desire to forge the nation into an equal to the land of Giants, Vycera was challenged to a duel of honor! She chose exile instead of combat! Ryai'sumar joins Bjornheim as a true settlement of Vdalion! Cirilla Folhammar accepts the terms her predecessor refused, rising as Voice of the Sands! May she serve upon the council wisely for the people of the Expanse!'

  

In wake of this change, a new demographic finds itself present within Vdalion's people in the many calling the melting pot of a settlement their home.

With his development, the far edges of Meranthe have united once more under a single nation, with abundant trade being established on both eastern and western coasts.

 

 

With the unreconcilable deaths and destruction caused by Perdition, the blackened banners of the Huskarl stand tall and warriors of every clan of Vdalion prepare to descend the mountain once more. Until Perdition and it's denizens are returned to the cycle they struggle to escape, the north will not rest.

  In lighter news: To ensure efficiency in Borya's temporary leave, the young fairy Eluin has been appointed to fill his seat.
