Talsil 16th - 20th in the 21st Year After Shalraza
It's been four days since the party was last together, and in that time much has changed. Word spreads of miraculous and stunning events taking place across Loranna, of a great net cast out from the sky which snared Yathnoc the Red and dragged him into the highest firmaments, of a new realm unfurling upon the Atilan Ocean seemingly overnight, and of assassination and upheaval in the dwarven capital of Citadel. Astronomers marvel at six, new heavenly bodies wheeling overhead.
The reformation movement within the Nors church gained legitimacy with the miraculous and simultaneous appearance of the Angel of Hope in every last chapel and cathedral across the empire. The Rebellion and the Free City of Edmark have aligned themselves with this growing phenomenon, calling for all imperials to embrace this chance at equality and freedom, and to cast out the old traditions of oppression and tyranny. Tolerna and Liscara grow restless in the west...
The unusual silence of the proud Jotun of the north has broken, and they pour from their high-holds with renewed vigor in defense of the northlands under the command of the Jarless Northstar, no longer associated with the former King Matthias. The emperor's northern armies, lacking their wyrm, are now in full retreat.
Travelers east bring word of a rising power in the deep woods and craggy coasts, dark dwarves from the times of old, snatching all they can. Out of Izolda, the Vampire Queen Drelzna makes safe her borders with timber forts and the groundwork for lasting keeps. In the festering Otezum, the Sons of Nor have been driven back into the walled confines of Crucible as the native lizardfolk mass with new purpose and a surprisingly keen strategy.
And on the final day the emirates of Azerbad at last chose a side in the
ongoing war by officially supporting the Northern Alliance. Within the coming weeks, the southerners are intent
on providing fresh troops and supplies across all fronts.
