Technically neither backed down, I assume that means the Durma continued. Yes and no, K'lo stopped the Durna from happening, and Morya dishonoured herself first by going to attack an Ancestor. In a way he did break the law by bring a blade into the ring but he won't be punished as he did so to protect an Ancestor. Again, would it be dishonour to attempt to attack or attack? I say so because as the Blood Laws are it makes it sound as if it would be attack and not attempt. I do not want Jon dead, I am simply curious. You are right, she only attempted to attack and so no Blood Law was broken, however if she did attack she would turn into a dark ancestor, or so the legend goes, was going to have Jon explain it in my next post. Also he was going to explain that he planned this from the beginning. He will eventually die, but not yet. But he can come back right away. Pseudo immortality right there. I figure it's better for an Artugian to be dead.
That much is true lol, however to summon him will require the ritual, no gaunrantee it will be him or it will be him in a good form.

True but why not keep summoning them until you do. Also BTW how long can an Ancestor be summoned for?

It is risky. When you summon an Ancestor, even for good intentions, you run the risk of summoning a dark ancestor. I roll a d20 to decide what happens (odd = dark, even = good)
After two weeks the vessel they inhabit starts to degrade, after a month they are gone. If it is a dark ancestor however, they tend to go when there is nothing to kill or they get put down. Keep in mind an Ancestor can decide to leave whenever they want and can still be killed like everyone else.

K'lo is then likely to die in the Isles unfortunately. I mean in terms of I think Spade and I came to the understand that Mur were some of the fastest.....and even if we do know exactly how to get back to the Isles, on a small and faster ship than the Thalassae.....The shortest I can really get the trip down to is about 5 days.

Yeah kind of figured she would either die on the isle or on the way. I'm still writing on what happens when her body starts to degenerate. I'm thinking rapid aging with the death being light bursting from the skin in a non violent way.

If I've reckoned it correctly she'd have between 2-5 days of life in the Isles.
Trip from the Two Rivers to Errecist would be a day...... so she'd implode in betweensay 12 - 72 hours after arrival.

The Tal-Man docks would be some of the closest things to commercial docks, a large set of docks built to support large Tal-Men and the ships they use. Along with smaller ones on the side for personal or personal fishing though not extremely popular as sport. Their are sewers that lead out to the docks only close to the city most is disposed of a slightly better way then per-industrial London.

If Raven gets back to be with a Cauti response I may or may not be able to begin liberation/reign of terror along the coast of South Tal-Man.
Peeps won't get a way with disrupting my trade with the good Tal-Man people nor will we tolerate Mur blood spilt on the mainland by shore-walkers.

Wait so are the Artguians in the Mur islands? Because the Tal-Men still conduct quite a bit of trade with the Mur, And Grey even 3 months later should still be their as an ambassador, and in either way I can not imagine the Ants taking kindling to seeing Tal-Men.

Three months has passed in terms of game time since Shuri'den and Grey talked in Skadia.
In that time I've had my expedition that was set into motion before the Festival arrive on the Southern Continent where the Artugians live and settle on the Southern coasts of the land mass where they initially landed. Additionally in that time in exchange for help surviving on the continent the Mur have taught the Artugians to sail though no formal trade agreement has been reached between the two yet.
I'm currently about to have K'lo meet Shuri'den'shalvys is the Isles so she will be the first Artugian to see them, meanwhile Johnny has Artya and Artyee in Pataris with Raven likely with plans to invade Southern Tal-Man to either root out the Cauti and claim their territory or support their efforts.
The Cauti seem to have pushed North and East and established a front a between your territory and the Kilerth County of Osmar using a magic weapon to win their initial skirmish against the humans.
I've no declared the Mur intentions/ or demands to the Cauti that if they continue to hinder trade between Tal-Man proper from the Southern Coastlines or fail to police those routes then I will be undertaking punitive action against them by sending a token force through Osmar to the border between the three involved nations and a Fleet to the South to terrorise the coasts.
The Mur won't be attacking the Tal-Man for keeping slaves even if they are Artugian, they likely will not be purchasing them either, they will not be attacking the Artugians should they land in Tal-Man unless they attempt to hinder lines of trade, harm their people, or attempt to lay claim to the coasts.
Looks like Spade in Osmar is facing a potential coup d'etat by an ambitious nobleman, the expulsion of the Creed from a specific county which can only be a good thing, and now the threat of war with the Cauti in the South West.
Pataris looks to be stirring to aid the Artugians in their quest for revenge though why they fight against the Tal-Man at the behest of strangers they'd not met until now is interesting and likely a cover for something more interesting Raven has cooked up.
The Blood Raiders don't seem to be doing anything at the moment.
And the Kysmal are trying to unite under their King with the intent to leave their continent and look for conquest elsewhere though which way I take them..... North West to the Isles and the Mainland, South West to Artuga, or North East to the lands of the Cathay'Raht I don't know. Tbh I wouldn't mind starting a war with the Cathay Raht.....I think the Kysmal would respect them as enemies.

Right, sorry, I've been playing catch up. I was thinking Raven's post on page 125 could have been it but wasn't sure. Anyway, I'll continue as planned.

Other than that... I do not know.
Ark's people are really the ones who frighten me.
They could've easily taken on the Dwarves. They could still take on most of us.
This is why the Parians will be very careful around them, only taking aggressive actions when we know it'll cripple them beyond repair.

I'm not really concerned. I have a very solid understanding of what Arkena plans to start with and how to progress.... when he does arrive I'd already thought of potential contingencies for him......and now since I know magic exists....something I didn't know previously.... what's to be concerned about.

True, what would you say the Cauti's weaknesses are.
They are already militarized. Technologically Advanced. Magically Advanced. Numerous, Own Large Tracts of Land on the Main Continent. Hell, they have a magical rifle. Pioneering chemical warfare. Oh, and the 'Magical Rifle' works by taking the operators focus and channeling it into a small beam of raw energy that dissipates after about 30m.

Dudes who worry me are the Osmar.
Their racial design is bloody flawless. Rifles, Ships, Pike and Plate Armour. Trader Nation with Naval Traditions. Already militarised. Technologically Advanced. Magically Advanced. Numerous, Own Large Tracts of Land on the Main Continent, Owns Crasmere in the North. Has potential to annex Tal-Man between the Cauti, the Bloods, and his own lands. Aeschild's more lenient rule is on the decline. Knows about the Cathay-Raht which we don't. Is friends with them. Cathay Raht are giant ******* Cat People with Dwarfs.
From a military perspective they have everything my people lack. Experienced Modern Soldiers. Disciplined Formations. Vast Lands. Naval Traditions Rivalling my own. Etc. Too flexible and adaptable for its own good.
Unlike Spade other RP factions have more obvious weaknesses to exploit.
I apologise if I've presented them as flawless, that wasn't the intention. Militarily, the chain of command is both a strength and weakness. Whilst it lends to well organised and disciplined formations if that's cut it's put into disarray. Particularly when you consider that presently Earls and Barons themselves tend to lead armies. Say if Coenwulf became king and declared war on the Paric. A quick way to end that might be to take him prisoner in battle. He would however refuse to give up land. On that note, a combined strength and weakness is that the nation is heavily influenced by its ruler. Say again Coenwulf becomes king, his rule could lead to Naval traditions being somewhat neglected in favour of land.
The earls also have a great deal of autonomy, they are only required to provide a quarter of their soldiers to the monarch in times of war. They can provide more if they wish, but that requires them to like their liege.
Also I don't think I've gotten any magical abilities yet.
What're you looking at me like that for? I'll shank you I will.
