Title: *A Sealed Report For The Baron* Post by: Raiden Morana on October 12, 2009, 05:49:04 pm *This is a sealed report to the Baron and should be treated as OOC information to those who weren't a party to the events described within. More will become apparent later.*
My lord, As ye are well aware sire, we patrol and garrison East Altmere regularly to offer what protection and comfort we can to the Covian subjects that still reside there. Britain has been an absentee landlord and neglected our people in the province since the moment the land was stolen from us as part of the Minoc Accords treaty. Every day that I march the men westwards to clear the road of brigands and bandits Altmerian common folk approach us in the hope that once again they will be governed by Cove and not ignored by the Capital. It is to this end that I took the duty sergeant (Sanderson) to Yew for a hastily arranged audience with the militia Captain Dart to discuss plans for Cove to repatriate the Altmere once more. Dart volunteered that the Yewish have neither claim nor jurisdiction in the province with their boundaries reaching only as far as the cross roads guard post and so I outlined to him a proposal for Cove to once again officially govern the region once more, seeing as though we have been governing it unofficially since the Moot in Britain anyway. I extended the Militia the courtesy of having one or two observers present if they wished to oversee the humanitarian work of our men as we welcome Altmere under our wing once more. I went to pains to ensure that the Yewish did not see this as an aggressive act by ourselves but as the act of mercy that it is. The Yewish Captain, who displayed a lukewarm stance towards the newly crowned queen, offered that our alliance would still hold and that the queen probably had no notion of the Altmerian situation, badly advised as she appears to be. However he did recommend that a letter be penned to the Capital with regard to East Altmere becoming part of the Baronship once more. I have a Cadet eager to make Corporal sire. I recommend he be given the honour of leading our efforts to repatriate the Altmere. *signed & stamped with the Grenadier seal* Raiden, Commander.

We shall once again begin patrolling and resume complete ownership of East Altmere. The province is to be held against all those who would take it from us, and any such act will be seen as a declaration of war against Cove and its people. *Signed flamboyantly* Octiovus Von Richter |
