Sir Floris bride-to-be, The Princess of Thracia was abducted a while back, and despite his constant efforts to persuade his liege lords, The Rascus Brothers to help him he went ignored. Now he is called to arms against The Blood Legion by The Emperor of Morcia. Sir Floris confronts the Rascus Brothers about this as they prepare to rally their army to support The Emperor, the Rascus Brothers tell Sir Floris to be patient and fight for The Emperor, then they will hopefully gain his backing against Thracia.
Sir Floris begrudgingly accepts, though he secretly has a different plan.

⚔️Siege Of Varyct⚔️

King Syrathian II orders The Hospitaller Army to march and seize the territory of Varyct with support from his Templars led by Sir Pulsarion.

The newest addition to The Shadow Forces Army: The Dread Kings. Raised by a sinister Necromancer, these are the souls of fallen kings and their entourage raised to fight those that they once called subjects, equipped with Dark Magic weaponry.

The relief forces sent to quash the rebellions in Verentyne and Yarrok’s Demise have been successful in quashing the rebellions, driving the peasant masses back to their homes dead or alive.

Following this, the territory of Verentyne has declared their independence in a civil revolt after rallying a huge horde of soldiers, peasants and brigands to their cause.

House Rascus has formed under the Rascus Brothers, two noble veterans of countless wars determined to rule their land in peace. They have now established their own standing army as can be seen in the following images.

The territories of Verentyne and Yarrok’s Demise are up in arms and rioting against their new liege lords, expressing their dissatisfaction about being handed over like cattle.

•Casualties of the riots so far:
Civilians killed: 149
Soldiers killed: 37

The Reptillian tribes have come to avenge their defeat at Blood River against The Greek Cities, besieging the city of Athens!

Final Slides show the location of this battle in The Realm and The Realm as a whole.

An army of peasants manipulated by a Dark Lord attempt to bring down the largest dragon in the realm, but her rider has other ideas!

Full story in the comments!

Following on from the Battle Of Highchurch between Shadow Forces and House Gryphondawn (recap image on image 1) this is the story of Bascurus Gryphondawn who was killed alongside his brother in the battle, only to be resurrected in a twisted ritual by a Bloodmancer…

Long after the funeral for the two fallen lords of Gryphondawn, the resurrected Lord Bascurus Gryphondawn stumbles back across the Gryphondawn border and is met by disbelieving soldiers who believe he is a ‘Revenant’, a wight sent by Shadow Forces to haunt them, the soldiers beat him senseless and exile him from their camp.

Map of the location and Realm as a whole on the final images, more story below in the comments!
