Raiders of Undine: Chapter II

 

            Word has spread quickly across Temuair of the total defeat of the Loures Undine garrison in a battle at the peak of Mount Giragan. The captain of the garrison, Gnaeus Pompeius Caprarius is dead, said to have been killed by the aisling Timelock. Reports have circulated of the remaining Loures soldiers in Undine fleeing for their lives. Still, most in Undine are not opening celebrating or denouncing Loures, as the memories of the rebellion and siege Deochs 12 and 13 are still fresh in the minds of many.

 

            Despite the disaster at the Loures garrison, before the death of Caprarius, a smaller but well organized loyal group of Loures aislings successfully found and destroyed the rebel base. Its captain, whose name is unknown, was slain by the loyal aisling Kaiderai.

 

While the this battle might be considered a draw, Loures soldiers have retreated out of Undine, as they are not without a garrison.

 

The leader of the High Council of Loures writes:

 

“To all loyal citizens and aislings,

 

Undine is in a state of rebellion against Loures. The council will keep you informed when events of significant happening. We send out thanks out to those loyal aislings who helped find and destroy the rebel base.

 

-Jean

Leader of the Loures High Council”

 

With no guards to tear them down these notes have been seen posted all over Undine:

 

“To all the brave aislings,

 

On behalf of all of Undine we wish to thank you for your assistance in the recent battle. Without your assistance our victory would not have been possible. The war however is far from over. We will keep you up to date on when your assistance will be needed again.

 

-Anonymous Undine Rebel”

 

While both sides plan for the future Lord Ramanayan Caesar has announced the memorial for the slain Gnaeus Pompeius Caprarius in about one moons time. This will take place in the Lover’s Garden (Formally the King’s Garden) just outside of Loures Castle in a double moons time. The body of Caprarius will be burned on a funeral pyre there as his will requested. The high priest of Novus Imperia will also be present to preside over the ceremony and will attempt to learn from the gods why a loyal soldier such as Caprarius meet his end.

 

((Raiders of Undine: Chapter II will take place on Wednesday October 29th at 4:00 PM PST in the Lover’s Garden. This chapter is a strictly role-playing event! There will be no rewards, items, or legends given here! ))

 

((For those who attended the Raiders of Undine event I would to apologize for the chaos that was present at the start of the event for the side of the Undine rebels. Hopefully at future chapters this can be avoided as we will be making several important changes for the next major chapter. I would like to thank everyone who participated.

 

Any rumors of biasness towards Loures in this event are false. Raiders was scripted to take into consideration the much larger side of Undine. (I’ll point out that Loures killed the Rebel captain only a few moments before the Rebels killed the Loures captain.) All items and gold collected from the event are going toward future events.

 

Remember that no forces you to attend these events. If you do not wish to come, do not. If you wish to criticize go right ahead, but do not flame those who spent weeks planning and getting this event set up.

 

Legend marks will be rewarded for the winners on BOTH sides within a week or two. Others will receive “Event Points” (notified via in game mail in a few days) which they will be able to use to purchase rewards during future chapters or other specified times.

 

Any questions contact Ramanayan.))
