Burnings, Battles & Butchered Babies...

Just your average happenings in the Baronship.

Guardsman Recruit Franki Lusion was hung and his body burned after confessing to a number of crimes, most notably the attempted murder of the Commander's wife, Railen Morana.

His drunken acts of violence against the staff of the Green Goblin tavern and his subsequent assault on the pregnant wife of Commander Morana led to his capture, imprisonment and subsequent execution.


His accomplice in these crimes but not in the attempt on Railen, the Goblin's acting Manageress' life, Guardsman Recruit Starkad was also imprisoned and flogged for his drunken deeds. Let this be a lesson to those Covians who think lawlessness will be tolerated.

On a brighter note the heathen forces of Vesper were routed and driven from Covian lands by our brave guardsmen aided by the Yewish and their allies. The massed ranks of Vesper's wytches could not stand against the onslaught of Grenadiers and Besiegers as they blasted the Red Menace out of Cove.


Sadly this, as all battles was not without it's casualties. Though the death of a barmaid's young daughter during a Vesperian reprisal attack on Cove's tavern is a sad reminder of the atrocities of which Vesper and it's hirelings are constantly capable as they wage war on innocent civilians.


This reporter for one hopes that Vesper will be held accountable for these war crimes once this conflict has come to a close.

Clergywoman Assassinated!

A grim day for all Avatar-loving men and women indeed, and an embarassing one for the Duchy Guard and Knights Templar. This evening, while spreading the word of the Lord to the masses gathered at the Moot, a Cleric of the Western Chapter of the Avatarian Church was brutally murdered by a deranged Vesperian woman.

Templi from the Western and Northern Chapters secure the fallen Sister's body after handing the assailant over to the Duchy Guard.

It all began when the Cleric's sermon on Women was nearing its end. Sergeant Reann of the Duchy Guard approached the Templi and demanded that they disarm, stating that the Duchy Guard and the Knights Templar had the security of the Cleric well in hand. No sooner had the Templi agreed to disarm than a woman leapt from the crowd, a cruel blade coated with a villainous toxin tearing into the Sister's unarmored flesh.

The Templi could not respond in time, and the Sister was slain. The assassin was quickly apprehended as she tried to flee the scene, her identity revealed as Elaine of Vesper. Those crowding around the Sister's corpse were adressed by Father Northwode of the Western Chapter, then dispersed so that the fallen Sister could be relocated and given a proper burial. The assassin now sits in a cell awaiting Trial.

The Duchy Guard has yet to comment on or acknowledge their embarassing failure to protect their esteemed guests from the Avatarian Church, but it is expected that many shall be much less confident in their so-called "Protection" in the future.
