Another Wind in the Hangmen's Noose

21st of Godfrey’s Triumph, 1776

State troopers in Owynsburg bravely warding off a pack of wild Hangman bandits.

 

 


 

When the Haeseni affirmed their dedication to the Orenian cause through full mobilization of their forces, deranged plotters scattered about the western mountains and southern coast flew into conniptions, demanding immediate punishment for Humanity’s audacity to stand strong and united. Unprepared groups of “begrudged soldiers” were directed for the Empire’s rural provinces, hardly a pair among them speaking the same tongue or sharing values beyond their envy of Oren’s success.

 

A patrol of State troopers caught the enemy bandits attempting to pilfer a granary, indicating the ragtag coalition has little food to go around. Assembling a few patrols of troopers alongside local subjects levied to defend their homes, the Orenians rushed to meet the enemy raiders on the field. But as is typical of their kind, the Hangmen cowered from the lightest touch of combat.

 

The raiders skirmished and fled from the disciplined formation of Imperial troopers and militiamen, taking heavy casualties every time the fierce Orenians caught up. The raiders’ legs eventually gave out, resulting in two thirds of their numbers lain dead or dying with the remainder routed into the woods. The surviving enemies were summarily executed by Orenian justice and their corpses left for wild beasts.

 

“Those who have distanced themselves from the Empire have found themselves lost and destitute; those who have harmed the Empire have found themselves cursed and destroyed.” - Guide to The Holy Orenian Empire, 1751

 

God save the Emperor; God save the Empire!

This must be a joke. Good morale boost for the lads, I guess. Winning a three versus fifteen must have been quite the heroic showdown.”, the ‘aheral scoffed.

Hadvar av Mitteland chuckles to himself, remembering the days of the AIS, "So the Haensetti wish to die as well? That can be arranged." He says to his Squire with a broad smile. "Rally the troops of Norland, it's about time we got involved in this sh** show."
