War Has Begun!

I will take a group scouting a few days before the feast. This group should be comprised of those who can move somewhat silently and can handle themselves in a fight (or at least get away quickly should one arise). Message me if you can join and I will send you the details and inform General Harrison.

Friends,

With the mounting war effort, I am sure that General Harrison will not happen upon your missives here. Please remember to send him a post to his tent, else your actions may not be properly cataloged, which will cause confusion in the war planning over the next critical days.

Again, please remember to not clutter this important missive but to send your correspondents via private post to General Harrison.

For King and Country!
Squire Lucas R. Brand

You insult the Count and a General of the King's army Odo. You openly speak of a code of honor, and enax in the same breath, while speaking of compassion. You should respect your betters and know your place. Do not presume to lecture me on war. I've been in wars plenty of times with your "people."

Last I checked enax was all about authority, tyranny, and war. You disrespect all aspects of these, while toeing the line of treason. I imagine a "good enaxian" would fall in line and respect their leaders. So, you are either with us and disrespecting those who are your betters, betraying your own race, and offending your god, or you are against us.

I stand with my King and Country, and will not hesitate to cut down any of those who do not. Explaining these things to goblinoids is a waste of time and I will not lower myself again to their level, this is my last word on the matter.

May the True Gods protect us and watch over us in our time of need.

Howdy,

I don't know about what the armies of New Gaaldron use to grease their wheels, though I'll take the word of the Count on that.

There are a few things that I do know and think bear mentionin'.

Not a month ago I had to stick my sword through the ribs of the smith that helped me get my armor ready the first time I came to Travance. Old Silas, the man that owed me two silver and a plow? I had to cut his legs and arms off. I'm right sure that each and every person that was in Travance last moon have tales like mine.

When heroes come to Travance they know they are doin' dangerous things and get ready for it. But this plague that New Gaalderon created didn't go after the masterful warriors, the great mages, or cunning scouts. It went after people that just wanted to live their lives in peace, turnin' them into weapons. Travance can't let this stand. All of people that would bring Kormyre down have to be shown that if they plant the seeds of death among innocents that they'll reap bitter fruit. Otherwise regular people'll have to deal with whatever horrors our enemies come up with.

I'm pinned down in Alisandria dealing with leftover infected and a small bit of undead so I can't stand with you and I'm sorry for that.

I ain't a noble so I can't order anyone to do anything. I can only ask this of those that I see as my friends, my brothers, and my sisters.

Give 'em heck!

And don't worry about savin' any for me when I get there in August.

Atrus - I beg you to consider your words, as in my almost 6 years in Travance Odo has been as loyal a subject as the Baron requires. Authority does not equate to treason. While it is true I have fought, and killed, many whose skins were green, the enemy I have fought most frequently and in greatest numbers are what we call "human beings."

His Grace, Count Winterdark, and the King's General Joshua Harrison, are capable of deciding when their honor has been impugned.

Odo, will as you, Atrus, will stand for Travance in the battles to come and I would be comfortable with either of you at my back in a fight.

We do not have to look for enemies, as our true foes will be sufficient.

General Harrison and Count Everest,

All the resources of the Enaxian Church of Korymire are at your disposal.

In service to Korymire,
Bishop Emar Dark-Root of Enax

Removed, Bishop. I am sorry I allowed myself to be tactless.

-Odo

Thanks and kind regards for the warning.

While I am small in dignity in Travance, I will do what I can under the direction of the Master of Arms. And, I will likely remain behind to do what can be done in Kaladonia.

Subjects of Travance,

I understand that tempers can run very high in times of war, however we would do better not to misplace the passionate feelings we have and put it to use on the battlefield.

Working as Acting Magistrate I will ask that these matters be persued no further by these means; the question of loyalties will come to the surface soon enough and anyone found to be treasonous will be punished acordingly by the proper authorites of the Barony.

I respectfully ask the Lords to put their seals to this message in an effort to focus the attention of all the lands to the matter at hand, such as lending themselves to the Sheriff/Captain of the guard, building reinforcements, running supplies just to name a few instead of these meaningless squables...

with respects...

Fellow citizens of the Proper,

It seems I have missed quite a bit in my absence, and as a healer and mage, I apologize to all of you that could have benefited from my services. I vow to stay clear from the danger no longer, and look forward to serving with all of you in the battle to come. It is difficult for me to imagine I will be coming home to war at my door step. Though heart ache and death have always seemed to surround me, it is quite different when they directly target the men and women who have done nothing but ensure my well being since I have known them. My power, and my life are at your disposal. All I ask is that you utilize them wisely. I am not quite ready to give in to the cold, endless sleep.
