2053 AC

Many a happening had befallen the lands of Fortune. After their recent Name Day Celebration talk of a potential recurring festival has gone about its people. Many feel an annual recurrence was in order, but some feel it’d be easier to manage every few years given Fortune's size. Once this is resolved, the whole of Meranthe could expect a celebration of liquor, meats, and a grand tournament unlike any other.

☠

Fortune has continued to grow. Its lands spread with every waning moon, and now with the fall of Lyonesse? Its people having abandoned those once glorious lands, made in the light of her ‘Majesties’ country. It was all for naught; they would see the place torn down brick by brick; board by board. Lyonesse was no more, the settlement well and truly gone. But this left a void within the southern seas, one that Fortune would be filling. One that they had been longing for, eyeing for so long. Yet now, the island had been dubbed by a new name, the Sapphire Bay was born. A new glorious capital to the nation of Fortune.

☠

The tri-headed council of Fortune has come together. Firstly, after the christening of the Sapphire Bay settling Fortune’s borders was important. Making sure the seas were clear for safe travel, making sure the lands of Meranthe saw them in a brighter light. But most of all, making sure that their nation would prosper for years to come. The Sapphire Bay not only serving as a focal point of the nation but also, a colossal trading hub across all of the southern seas.

⎈ In the advent of their celebration, Fortune has begun fully settling the Sapphire Bay. Erecting many a home, a stall, and a shop. Allowing for greater prosperity than they’d managed before. Especially with the travel between Port Fortune, and Nilhirra no longer barred by Aenite waters.

⎈ Fortune’s growth continues to rise, with every passing day more come to the jewel of the Southern Ocean. And its capital the Sapphire Bay provides a mercantile opportunity they’d not had in the past.  It was an epicenter of trade in Aen’s day, now Fortune would take a piece of that success.

⎈ The island chain now boasts a collective population of over two thousand. Fortune’s citizenry remains thriving under their banner of freedom. That, and the banner of Vdalion’s empire flown in unison.

⎈ There is rumors going about, that the tournament held during the Name Day Celebration may become an annual activity. But this is still being deliberated by Fortune's leadership. There has also been talk of a sentencing, that a thief would be handled accordingly. Rumor has it that the Ookami known as Rasalas Thatcher will be offered up for a specialized trial. If word holds true? It'll be a spectacle for the ages...
