NOTES FROM THE ALLIANCE

Storm clouds are gathering, or is that just smoke from the funeral pyres.  King Faelrud has come out of the lowlands of Ketos bordering Argos.  He has tried to raise support for his legitimate claim to the throne of Argos, but has not had much success.  He feels his moment slipping away and decides to cast his lot.  Now or never!!  He gathers what followers he can and makes his way to the capitol of Argos.  He will demand the Alkes Nobles recognize Faelrud, the true King of Argos.   In Ketos, Rolf the Rough fidgets and worries about reports from outlying borders.  He has supported Faelrud, but is unsure what turmoil Faelrud’s coup may bring to the coast.  There is word that Brown Dort was sighted at night in one of the market squares.   The withdrawal of Eridanus and Piscis from the grand confederation is troubling.  Rumblings of war are worrisome.  Rolf sends word to his Kaelum ally, Anndoquat to beware of King Ralph.  Anndoquat is annoyed.  He has been occupied scraping together a treasury and trying to keep Count Clannano in line.  Fearing trouble from his neighbors he hires the Salvation Army for his own protection and warns Rolf to sharpen Keton swords.  Rolf decides to sell off his golden throne and use the funds to build a fierce defense.  The population of Ketos is put to work building a great wall of protection, The Wearwall.
