In the troubled Kingdom of Yew…

Under the glow of red-moon, a great cry can be heard from the forests and streets of Yew Proper.



VICTORY!

The allied forces of the Britannian Protectorate under the command of our Governor-Regent and four of his legionary generals have broken the invading forces of the Armunn Empire with minimal casualties and –no- damage to the city or woods of the Yewish Kingdom of Sid.

Lord Gariner himself along with King Skyfire of Sanctus, Lords Walter and Isk of Magincia, Lord Malo of Honor’s Landing and Lord Sidhe of the the Tokuneese Islands kept the wall and led the charge.

To the victor truly go the spoils, in Protectorate custody and awaiting trial Ditto Armunn , wife of the would be emperor and his daughter Imyrr Armunn were apprehended by allied forces on allied soil in direct violation of the mandate regarding nationals of the Armunn Empire entering Protectorate-Protected territories.

These early days of the Armunn Campaign have seen many joyous events in addition to The Protectorate’s crushing victories!

Niall McStravick and Hashim of the Kingdom of Sanctus were formally knighted by King Skyfire himself moments before the lines were attacked by the meager but skilled Armunn forces.

Also, in a more gentle moment, Ivory Wright, mayor of Sanctus was adopted into the line of Skyfire and named a Baroness!

The Governor-Regent encourages all allied military forces to converge on the Court of Truth tonight for one push of the Armunn forces out of the Kingdom of Yew!

First Yew, then to Mazewood and Skara Brae!

The Golden Age is dawing!

Our Victory is assured!

The rightful King of Yew, Lord Sid, shall keep his throne intact!

The armies of the Protectorate cannot be defeated!

All hail the five tipped spear of Governor-Regent’s army!

Long live the Protectorate!

May the Virtues sustain us!

After being read a copy of news Tarothin just started laughing.

Victory? Over what? We haven't invaded Yew. If they find victory over pushing out small scouting parties of a few people only then they are more pathetic then I realized.

Then again that doesn't say much for my daughter on actually being caught. He turned angry at this, but more so at his daughter then them. She is a fool to have been taken. But something different then his wife's arrest. This caused him to be angry. Not because of it being his daughter but the fact one of his soldiers and a Lady of the Order to be taken so. His wife was a... special case. One that actually worked to his advantage. She is liked by many and any mistreatment that is given to her will only cause dissention. A shame really should he have to outlive all his children.

As he turned to the maps once more...

It is taking longer to gather the troops then he had first thought. The land had spread them out too thin and he was starting to pay for it he knew. Would they even be able to be gathered should they get the nerve to dive further in? After Minoc they have become lax. That will need to be rectified.

I have been to Yew personally and even with being outnumbered he knew all he needed were a few more of his soldiers with him and the Protectorate will be singing a different tune.

I will be so put out should I loose any ground. The predicament that Darrien has put them in regarding Umbra has made things a bit sticky for his liking.

He could only continue to wonder how long his force will be until fully united again like in Minoc.

Imryrr stood in her cell. Since being double shackled late last night, she had so far refused to sit or to eat. She stood stoically staring out at nothing and everything through her cell bars.

Her interrogation had been amusing and very enlightening. She knew more now about the enemy than she ever had. A tactical advantage if she were to live.

Dying in battle was the ultimate dream for her kind. Execution of a soldier felled in battle was to humilate them and showed no Honor from the executioner in her eyes. Perhaps she had again overestimated Sanctus' own Honor.
In several discussions with the Lich Lord, she'd fought for the honor of their enemy. He wanted them taken for Oblivion's benefit, but Imryrr had wanted any soldier that fought the Dark Order to recieve their rightful respect of dying in the heat of battle. It was honor amongst soldiers. The only thing she was willing to give to the enemy... a glorious death. It was a pity that she would not be shown the same respect.
Her only regret was not fighting hard enough against the binds when she was arrested. Damn the weakness in her legs! Her own pending execution was not her main concern. She'd been humiliated. If she, by chance, should live, every Sanctan would pay for this insult done to her honor. Peasant, children, soldier. Every single Sanctan.

For the first time since the removal of her finger, Imryrr glanced down and stared at the wrapping that covered the stub. One pinky would give no advantage to the enemy. But it could, if she survive, bring more torture to them in the future. Imryrr smiled cold against the throbbing pain. She lived everyday with the ice cold pain in her legs. The pain of the removed pinky was undershadowed by it.....and so she smiled just as cold as the pain she felt in her legs.

After hearing the news, Vaen tapped his chin as he chuckled slightly.

"Good to see nothing has changed. The virtuous ones always forget about Humility."

****

Back in Minoc....


Vaen glanced down at the ever-present chessboard, and moved a pawn forward with a slight grin. Leaning back, he observed the battlefield and the positioning of the chess pieces, waiting for the opponent to make the next move.
