[USER=13647]@seoulmate[/USER] Ruling

• House Peirgarten mobilizes its troops to join up the many many armies already in Torse & Arlora, and send 4 wealth Tokens worth of supplies with them to support Lillian Howlester's attempts.

[USER=15361]@ChapterDeath[/USER] Foreign Consul East

• Lillian, Alesia, Alastair, Amelina, and Rodrigo travel to the authorities in Torse & Arlora. The East Consul pays out 10 Wealth Tokens from its (non existent) bank, thus spending in deficit. These Wealth Tokens are sent to reconstruction efforts in Arlora and Torse.
• Lilian Howlester brings orders for the Mac Conall and Peirgarten armies, however the Mac Conall army never shows up as it wasn't mobilized.
  • Present in Arlora & Torse are de Azcoissia, von Schwarzkrau, Delmotte, Peirgarten armies. There are so many armies present that the local economy and colonial food production is unable to sustain the presence of tens of thousands of soldiers that now outnumber the locals. Attempts to spread them out is proving more and more difficult. As a result, [USER=15738]@Arhbi[/USER] [USER=16675]@Birdsfoot_Violet[/USER] [USER=19439]@Hemingway7[/USER] These houses are billed 2 Wealth Tokens to send additional supplies because the local area is unable to supply this many armies. Peirgarten is not billed, because they already provided supplies this cycle.
• The realms indicate they have had very little contact with Hyttelåm, Kermån and Hålman, but they suspect that these nations fared better during the Bone Horror Crisis because their population had a higher degree of martial training, being Velheim. They say that even before the Bone Horror Crisis, these nations closed their borders to the Torse and Arlora states because they were waging war with one another, and say they have had practically no contact with them, but the border forts and towns still show some sign of life.
• There is also no contact with the Aontaithe realm, saying that since the Allorn basically took over, and the Asha started coastal raiding, they have closed their borders also, with only limited Allorn fleets sailing in and out occasionally. They remark that some of the ships going in and out closely resemble slaver ships of the past, but that they couldn't get hard confirmation on them.
• They have very limited information on the mainland Essallonian states as they are an ocean away from them. All they know about the Oltaran Hegemony is that they are a strictly atheist republic ruled by Oligarch families who have massive armies and wealth, and that they are in a constant sphere struggle with the hyper religious and occult hating Heser-Herriarch Theocratic Empire, ruled by the Supreme Primarch and the Council of the Clergy. They say occasionally Oltaran Hegemony merchants show up, but that they are always turned away because they are not signatories to the Naval Acts and as such aren't allowed to trade with Torse and Arlora.
• Mac Conall and Peirgarten set up the deployment of troops. While initially there were plans for Mac Conall and Peirgarten troops in tandem to be set up, since Mac Conall troops were never mobilized, they make do with Peirgarten troops.
