Location-Shoda Estates


The Shoda estates were set far into the forests. Surrounded by trees for miles, they offered a quiet protection that Juro Shoda enjoyed when he went over the Houses daily affairs. Seated on a small pile of cushions, Juro puts down the latest slate he was reading, something about minor bandit trouble along the eastern roads. While it was not a matter to be ignored, he decided he could leave that decision to his Force Commander. As if hearing his Lords thoughts, Juro hears a light tapping on the door to his office, and Juro straightens himself from the cushions, adjusting his robes.


"Enter." The next moment, the sliding door is pulled aside, and a tall warrior, wearing blue and orange armor enters. Held under his left arm, a helmet, with five large feathers sticking from the top, display his rank as the Shoda Force Commander, leader of the House Shoda military. Quickly kneeling before his Ruling Lord, Kenoke bows his head to Juro, before rising once more. "My lord, I assume you have read the report on the bandit raids?" Suppressing a smile, Juro merely nods his head. "Then, I assume you wish that they be dealt with?" Nodding once more, Juro picks up the slate reading it over once more quickly, the Force Commander waiting silently. "Send a Strike Leader to dig them out, one company should be able to drive them out easily enough."


Bowing once more, Kenoke rises to his feet, quickly stepping aside as a kitchen servant walks in, carrying a tray with a few fruits and pastries. Waving his hand for the servant to go, she bows, placing the tray on a nearby table, before exiting the room, sliding the door closed behind her. Tossing one of the pastries into his mouth, Juro returns his attention to the days affairs.


Outcomes


One Company of Shoda warriors mobilized to deal with raiders.


Economic Ties with nearby cities are beginning to be increased.

Location-House Telf'ar


The House of Telf'ar had always watched the northern most region, it had always prospered from under the shadow of Mt. Koln. In addition to being a very spiritual place, the mountain was also rich with Ninojan steel, the hardest and most pure steel. Characterized by its distinctive blueish tint, the mountain was the only place it was to be found, and very little at that had ever been recovered. But the mountain was rich in other fashions, such as gems, minerals, and other useful items that other Houses would pay well for. Because of this, House Telf'ar had become quite wealthy, and put that wealth to good use supporting its allies and strengthening its self. Masil busied himself looking over various maps that where spread out across a large battle field table, left over from his father.


Silently and quickly and man, dressed in black with a large golden phoenix on his chest and two diamonds of the same color on his shoulders, signifying him as Voust, the Telf'ar Force Commander, "Sir, i have the daily reports." after staying on one knee for a second he stood and walked over to the table and spread the reports in front of Masil. "As you can see the mines have just hit a new vein of silver, it is being transported back to the smiths and mined as we speak. As for the rest, most of them the delegates can take care of. That is, except this one" The man reached behind his back and pulled out a dirty tri folded letter stained with something. "This is from our...sources...in the south." Masil looked at Voust, "I see...so no new bandit raids?" Voust leaned over the map on the table and pointed to a location, "just one Sir, right there, but they are of no threat at the moment" Nodding his head Masil waved his hand to dismiss Voust, after the man left Masil sat down and opened the tri fold letter.


Reading over the letter he saw that it was as he had assumed, some form of bandits or raiders had taken up residence down south. But that was most likely some sort of story spread by the House that did not want to get caught. Mumbling to himself and scratching his chin, "I will need to send a new batch of weapons down to Juro soon..." Satisfied that all was well, Masil stood and wrote down the oder for a shipment of weapons to House Shoda.


Outcomes


Shipment of weapons being prepared for House Shoda


New silver goods becoming available in markets


Spies Hidden: 100%


Spies Found: 0%

House Vulf

Location: The Vulf Den

In the courtyard many soldiers were training and Damon Vulf was observing flanked by the First Strike Leader, the rank the Vulf Referred to as Simply 'First' Some of the men sparring before him when he steps forth and, with a curt nod, opens an arm to signify that he would like a weapon. One of the wooden training weapons is quickly tossed to him and joins the sparring as the Force commander arrives and begins chatting to the First as he observes his leaders skill. After some time Damon manages to lose a fight and takes a blow to the chest, knocking the wind out of him. "I guess I need to train more" he laughed as he headed off to meet with his First and his commander as they strolled across the snow toward the Keep that looked over the large town. "What news?" he asked "Nothing of note, Raiders raiding a clan, clan marching to kill raiders, etc." The Commander Replied to which the First interjected "What about the information that ties between the shoda and its neighbors appear to be strengthening and ties between them and our neighbors to the west?" Damon quickly joined in "Its not worrisome, yet. The commander knows what I need to know, but do keep an eye on it. Keep me informed on anything relating to our neighbors. Now what of our own borders?" he asked "I repeat Lord, naught of note" he shrugged "The game of cat and mouse with the raiders in the icy north continues but in our more affluent lands all is secure and safe."


Damon pondered this for a moment as they entered the keep "Send fresh men to bolster our forces in the north and have the more wearied troops from that age old game of hide and seek take some time in the southern garrisons enforcing the bridge or the western corridor. They should be able to recover their wit as well as their rest and, their experience will prove useful if anything new sparks up in this game of power. Remember, the warlord is dead and I intend to take his place." he said knowing full well war was outlawed but, the way he saw it, much like love, there are no laws in war. Or else the law that raiding was illegal would stop clans raiding one another. Now was just not the time to start one. He turned to his First "Send someone to ready my guard, perhaps I can do something" he then looked over to his Commander "You know the drill, keep the House in good order and we shall look to the future when I return, for now I wish to inspect the state of affairs to the north for myself. Seek allies, look to find which houses will be willing to help me in my ambitions and see how we can win them over" he finished as he headed off to grab his Wolf Pelt and other assorted military gear.


Outcomes

Troops sent to refresh the troops bandit hunting in the tundra to the north of the house, lead by Lord Vulf himself.


The Troops being replaced are going to reinforce the southern and western borders


Messengers sent to investigate possible allies, without stating lord Vulf's Ambition, yet. (Though the more cunning lords may figure it out)

Location-Woods Near Shoda Estates


The forest was filled with the sound of combat. The woods, usually a dark and silent place, is replaced with orange and blue flashes, and the sound of steel against steel. Shoda warriors, sent to find a brigand force near their lands, were ambushed during their search, and despite losses, have pushed the raiders back. Standing above one of the prisoners, Kenoke used a cloth to wipe the blood from his sword, looking down at the cowering man beneath him. Under fed, thin, and what appears to be a infection on his upper arm, the man showed all the tale tell signs of a real bandit, and that allowed Kenoke to relax.


Turning his head, Kenoke nodded to a few other Shoda warriors, their orange and blue armor tainted with blood, as they escorted more prisoners into the clearing. As the last of them were tied and forced to kneel, Kenoke did a quick head count. "Twenty three new workers..." Turning, he made a quick chopping motion, and the other warriors moved forward, drawing daggers. The prisoners tried to flee, but their bonds kept them in place. The warriors each grabbed the mens faces, and in two quick slashes, made long cuts along both their cheeks, the mark of slavery.


"Taking them back to the estates, when the next caravan comes this way, we cane sell these men for a decent price." Turning away, Kenoke listened as the prisoners were marched away, some of them crying and begging to be killed, rather than sold into slavery. Turning to follow them, Kenoke began mentally writing his report for the Lord.


Results


Bandit activity near Shoda Estates eliminated


Shoda begin dealing in the slave markets
