More tornado help, now moving to fixing roads, bridges, houses and such.


More raids are issues.

This month, another assassination succeeds with poison.

Barkal the Red approaches Alzar, the leader of his tribe of barbarians and the nominal leader of the rest as well. He was Alzar’s best man at his wedding with Vix. He has aged to the point that he will no longer be able to run the barbarians. He was ousted by his son after losing to him in battle.

Barkal is given a role in his tribe as elder now, but his son is the official person to communicate with now.


Leeha are taking in some halfling refugees.




IMPERIAL NAVIES CLASH


In naval action, the Alphatian fleet sails around the northern end of the Isle of Dawn and approaches the main*land coast. Thyatian naval units stationed at Dawnpoint in the Thyatian duchy of Tel Akbir head north to intercept them, as do elements of the Retebius Air Fleet, the elite flying corps of the Thyatian military.

The years of warfare have now all but eliminated the effects of Valerias's earlier efforts; the weak officers have been eliminated by execution or have died in battle, and the common troops have been whipped into shape and weaned from the debilitat*ing effects of the zzonga fruit. So this promises to be a mighty clash of naval forces, and it is. The two sea-navies inflict great harm upon one another, and the Retebius Air Fleet and the Alphatian sky-ship navy lose many of their heroes in bloody fighting.

The engagement is a qualified victory for the Thyatians. The Alphatians are unable to make landfall on Thyatian soil; the Alphatian navy retreats to the Isle of Dawn.
