The scouts have been dispatched, heading south from Feynesse.
We are seeking a suitable city to form a highly civilised city-state.
We seek like-minded nobles to engage in a loose federation, for
mutual defence, and other cooperation.  Drop us a line if you're interested.

Journal entry
Thunder and rain, month 5, in the year 1

Rochville has become a town of no inhabitants.
The greater mass of nobles seem to have stripped it
bare, and all slipped off like thieves in the night.

learning the political landscape of the new found
kingdoms to come.

Thank you,

pricipality, one of two results must be sought. Either
they ought to be well treated or they should be crushed,
and if crushed, the injury that is to be done to them
ought to be of such a kind that one does not stand in
fear of revenge.

To understand the meaning of the cryptic
writing on the ancient mirror one has to look
at its pure function: the chirality of
reflection will give You its true riddle.
