24th
At the first Muster, it was confirmed that we were at war
with the Vipers, but we were told to be careful as we had
been placed next to them. The problem on Mauritanja with the
Vipers and the Skathen still rages. We have also got the Aeguptians
guesting with us, they had been given part of the camp to
set up in with their own gates for their privacy. We were
again warned not to go around by ourselves as there are many
people wishing to get rid of Unicorns, and it was later disclosed
that our close allies, the Gryphons, were also under attack
by the Vipers.
During
the afternoon, the camp was infiltrated by a goblin hag, The
hag was accidently freed by a group of children at the second
moot, and the hag wanted to get rid of all children because
she believed that only children had the imagination to imprison
her again. The children started the hard work to do just that,
with all of the children from the different Factions working
together.
At
about 6:15 pm, the Vipers attacked our camp. A group of Tarantulas
vistining our Faction at the time aided us with the fight.
At about 9pm, the Gryphons attacked the Vipers and the Unicorns
went to the aid of the Gryphons.
The
evening Muster started straight after the fight. During the
muster, Grendel recieved an appology for his arrest earlier
in the day.
Nadrac
said that he was worried about the Dark Trade taint on the
land. He also asked Guild members to ask at the Guilds about
any strange incidents. He already lmew that both the Mages
and the Armourers Guild were having problems and needed as
much information as possible.
The
Shadowkin were also discussed. They have taken over Shadow
Isle, the occupation being led by Valdrazar. Vadrazar actually
came into the camp in the afternoon, asking to see Queen Adelena,
claiming that he wanted peace. He left without seeing the
Queen.
After
the muster, Shiva and Vadek got married in the Ghostwalker
tent.
Saturday,
25th
The
M.P.D. (Mauritanjan Ploice Department) were touring the camp
to discuss Neighbourhood watch. The M.P.D. also asked if the
two doctors that reported an assult at the Faction Moot were
there, and if they could please contact a member of the M.P.D.
They applied for any witnesses to the alleged murder of Taylon
of the Vipers to report to the M.P.D. with any information.
It
was also revealed that it was now possible to remove Dark
Trade Taint safely.
Near
the end of the Muster, Grendal got Mage Bolted and refused
to be healed. He was seen heading for the camp exit. Vadek
went after him and managed to stop him leaving, before attempting
to heal him. Vadek realised that there was something wrong
with Grendal and used the power of the Ghostwalkers to destroy
the possessed soul of Grendal, allowing the real Grendal out
again.
The
Ranced Tusks, an orc group from the Vipers, came into the
camp with the Militia and the MPD, accusing The Tengu of the
murder of Taylon of the Vipers. The Tengu venomously denied
this, and Grendel agreed to a trial at 12 noon on sunday if
enough evidence and a body were brought. The names of the
two witnesses were given as Blink of the Lions and Felix of
the Rancid Tusks. About an hour and a half later, they returned
with a severed arm, a leg and a face, claiming that they belonged
to Taylon. They were told to bring them to the trial and were
warned to be there on time, or the trial would be cancelled.
In
the late afternoon, there was an arcane meeting run by Ailwen.
The meeting discussed two subjects, the main one being Far
Reach. Ailwen and Rowan spent three weeks there as guests
of Lord Tallarn and they had much information to share about
the life on Far Reach. They were also able to clear up many
questions that the Factions had. Manthar then revealed that
he had spent threee months there among the people and had
in fact been there while Ailwen and Rowan were there. He then
spoke of his experiences. The general opinino was to leave
the island alone, to let them get on with their life in peace,
although a few wished to visit Far Reach for themselves.
There
was also a discussion about some vistors we had had. They
wanted us to stop using magic, claiming that it was damaging
their homeland. They said that they had been to the Mages
Guild, but the Guild would not liase with them. We were told
that if we did not stop using magic, they would teach us a
diffeent sort of magic. We were also told to persuade the
other Factions and the Mages Guild to stop using magic. At
the meeting, it was decided that it would be best to remain
nuteral on the subject..
During
the day, a group of ghosts were repeatedly seen reenacting
their last battle. They were completely harmless if left alone,
but if anyone showed any agreesion towards them, they would
become violent towards the aggressor.
There
was a massed attack in the evening. The first wave was led
by Monotone. The battle raged for a long time, as we were
attacked by first the Vipers, then the Dragons and then the
Bears. The Unicorn Forces repeatedly drove back the attacks
until the oppenants gave up.
Lord
Rhino came back from Avalon on Saturday. He had been gone
for nine months, but where he had been, there was a time difference,
and he had been away fighting for nine years. He seemed very
distraught. A message went out to all factions, asking them
to attend an urgent meeting in the Unicorn camp. At the meeting,
Lord Rhino asked all the Factions to put aside their difference
and fight alongside each other to destroy the Progenitor and
tge Nosta Kar. A small party of Nosta Kar, led by the Progenitor
were going to invade Aegyptus the following day, and if they
were not stopped, all of Erdreja was doomed. A meeting to
discuss tactics was arranged for the next morning.
At
10pm, the bonding of Shiva and Master Sly took place. This
was attended by Master Sly's family and all of the Ghostwalkers.
Sunday,
26th
Most
of the morning was taken up by meetings about the Progentior
and the forthcoming battle. At 11:00 am, Military from all
Factions came to the Unicorn camp to discuss a battle plan,
and at 11:30, a meeting was held at the Mages Guild. At 12:00,
a muster was held to discuss the forthcoming battle, with
everyone asked to attend. At the battle, each faction was
to take a death mat to kill the Nosta Kar, and a warning was
issued to be careful, as when the Progenitor was killed, the
alliences would end, and the Vipers may attempt to use their
death mat on us.
We
were given the unfortunate news that Rowan, our High Ambassador
had been replaced with the Demon of Fraud and Deception. The
discovery was made the night before, when the Privy Council
were tested for Dark Trade. When it was discovered, the Demon
disappeard. The Bloodwyn was later abducted by this false
Rowan. It became of vital importance to find the real Rowan
and to find the demon and destroy it.
At
12:20, the Rancid Tusks arrived for the Trial. They were turned
array for being too late. They were very angry about this
and said that they would return later with their own judge.
The
battle was a success. Unfortunatly, Lord Rhino was killed
by the Progenitor with the Word of Death. This distracted
the Progenator enough for the Mages to cast their spell. This
in turn allowed the attack with Artifact Weapons to go ahead
and destroy the Progenitor. The warning about the alliance
stoping proved accurate when the Vipers turned on the Unicorns.
Rowan
was returned to the camp at approx 3:30 pm, after a long search.
She had been taken prisoner at Far Reach. The Bears Ambassidor
came shortly after and informed us that the Bloodwyn was also
back.
The
competition for the Faction Champion was held in the afternoon,
and the winner was Lord Kitaru, head of the Tengu. This was
followed by a muster in which everyone involved with the translation
of the Ice Temple was thanked for their hard work, and The
Will of Babd Catha were asked to look after the axe of Lord
Rhino. Manthar warned everyone to stay away from the Vipers,
as they were putting all of the people they captured on the
Death Mat.
Monday,
27th
The
lineup for the Battle was Unicorns, Dragons, Harts, Lions
and Gryphons against the Tarantuals, Bearsm Wolves, Vipers
and Aegyptus.
The children worked hard to imprison the Hag. During the weekend,
they were told to find the four elements; fire, water, air
and earth. Two were found on Saturday and two on sunday. After
being transported to 'The Fairy Tale Realm,' they fought the
Hag's guards, then placed the four elements into a key and
started hitting the Hag. She had no powers and after one of
two minutes of fighting, the children were teleported back
to the Gathering Lands, unconscious. The children that found
the elementals found them back in their hands. The Hag was
gone, as was their guard imp. They were informed that the
balance of Good and Evil had been disturbed so that now good
was overpowering evil, and they were told that the balance
needed correcting. The Unicorn Children then gathered together
and raided the Vipers Camp, stealing six flags.
