By postings, courier and word of mouth does news travel across the Republic.
The sister-cities of Gloomlight Grove and the Martyr's Vigil have endured many years of war in the previous decade, but as a brief period of silence follows, news of a joint training session held between those of the Bastion and those of Goldlight Order soon surfaces. Diligence is required, and now more than ever the newer generation of soldier-magi need hone and sharpen their capabilities. Following tradition, construction laborors and various non-magi began to prepare a watchtower between the two factions. A Mock Battle to come, a continuation of the previous exchange known as Steel and Stone II.
Alaric Bargiel, the Commander of the Bastion Wrote:For many generations have Gloomlight Grove and the Goldlight Order stood together to represent what is largely today known as 'the Republic.' Together we have endured many great sacrifices and championed many great victories for Meranthe. Now, we stand together again, in the name of growth and comradery, to sharpen the blades and hone the shields of the generation to come. As my mother once said,
'It is our duty to never grow complacent'
For the Republic, for Meranthe.
As per tradition, this battle will be held at the watchtower between the two cities. The Bastion will be tasked with defending the keep, whilst the Goldlight Order is tasked with invasion and conquering the tower. An opportunity for the lesser ranking soldiers of each military to display their capabilities and leadership skills; while simultaenously an opportunity for relations to be built between the sistering factions as they prepare for future endeavors. Their greatest strengths, in their union.
Objective: A mock siege between the Republic.
