West New York ARMY MOVEMENT DISCOVERED

[Balandar]

As the day of toils worked its way through all the villages and the threats of WAR and conflict kept many a citizens ears perked and eyes wide open....today seemed to be a day of busy busy scouting and reporting. It was seen in many parishes that wolves were stirred by the recent movements of Armies and as buzzards circled battlefields....so did the wolves find new places to find easy meals of the dead. Many Brigades were sent to dispatch these wolves across Western New York.

It was not till late this evening when my Herald asked me to send out a scout to verify a rumor of a large conquering army from Tupper Lake moving southwest. My Scout reached the parish of Tupper Lake and sought information and upon reaching another scout (from BEASTS) they traded information and indeed verified that the garrison in Utna did send out an army led by a captain carrying the colors of HOUSE 1 and Faction TRG Gaming. This village is owned by Viscount Blain905 and has his religious zealots holding an interdiction on the village for 11hrs.

Once the scout had informed me of this news..I sent him and a pair of other scouts to check the status of any other holdings that Viscount Blain commands. A final scout was sent to pick up the trail of this conquering army and determine its targeted village.

One by one my scouts returned and to my surprise the first to return was the one tasked with finding the conquering army......it was at that time just passed the boundaries of Onedia Parrish and he had found that they were marching on the village of Arthur in Jefferson Parish of WESTERN OHIO. This would take some great speed and I tossed the scout some coin to get a good meal and ale at the INN and then go take the fastest horse he could find and get to Arthur and if this be an ally village to warn them.....since Western Ohio was controlled by House 2 a lone standing rival to House 1.

As the other scouts returned they all reported the same Interdiction situation at Viscount Blain's holdings....

Aren where Blain is the Steward of the HERKIMER Parish and a "new village" that has no name as of yet for it is still within its 10hr construction bubble.

I began to look through the notes of the scout and the Castle defenses that he had scribbled of Utna..... devising a plan for any of the more powerful may like to see. Utna was an imposing structure but without its main garrison.....it appears vulnerable to a coordinated strong attack.

As dusk moved further into night and deep darkness....word via carrier pigeon arrived from my advance scout who had made it to Arthur. Prince Drakohio (aligned with no house or faction) owns Arthur and he has put a protection on the city for 2 days time.

Interesting....Blain's conquering army will arrive before this protection is ended...unless that protection of 2 days is broken somehow....I wonder what that army will do when they reach the village limits.

Perhaps I should begin some religious study myself to further understand this tactic and counter tactics that the men of cloth can bring to bear upon the greatest of armies.

If any of the Faction readers would like copies of the reports and/or an assault option....send a scout to my Heralds office where they will be accommodated.
