Terry 1859 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2021 [!] A painting made by a Dwarf, with the mountains of Urguan seen in the background. A CONCISE VICTORY In this third month of the War of the Wigs, a chapter has come to a close. Urguan spends their time celebrating one of many victories that they have earned when news reaches the halls of Kal'Darakaan of treachery within the Empire. The Emperor of Oren, Philip II has vanished without a trace and in his place, a usurper has risen. In addition to plotting to overthrow the Orenian government and previous Emperor, they have sided with their fellow usurpers to the South. The once peaceful hamlet of Sutica, that was defended by all of Arcas against Oren, fell to the same underhanded peoples that now lay claim to the Holy Orenian Empire. With this fact in mind, they have perpetrated the honor war between Urguan and Oren. Due to this, we see no purpose in continuing a war against those who had not transgressed against us. Therefore with the capitulation of the 8th Empire of Oren, the Grand Kingdom claims victory in this short but brutal war. Philip II, much like myself, had led our people with our heads raised high with both honor and pride, but one cannot yet say the same for his so-called successor. This is not the way we wished nor expected the war to end, but these discrepancies must be attended to all the same. Because of the power vacuum caused by the previous Emperor’s disappearance, there is only one certainty that the future holds. The sons and daughters of Urguan shall remain steadfast come whatever may happen. And as such, will not stand aside while aggressions are made to our kin from this new Empire. If the usurper of Philip II wishes to come to the lands of the Grand Kingdom, then he will be met with full retaliation in accordance with his transgression. If he wishes to remain in his new city and begin an era of peace between our folk, then we will accept that with open arms after seeing all grudges settled. Therefore as of this missive, I, Grand King Ulfric Frostbeard, of the Grand Kingdom of Urguan, proclaim victory over Philip II in the War of the Wigs. What comes next is to be decided by he who’d take advantage of the power vacuum, be that Philip III, or any other ambitious Umri who have not yet felt the wrath of Dungrimm. But until then, we shall remain dormant with our victory. To whoever manages to take Oren by the horns and lead them the way their predecessor did, we Dwedmar shall fervently await their response.

Elite Snipes 3542 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) Bakir "Orcs Blood" Ireheart toasted Levian'tol with a group of Irehearts in the Urguani tavern. He'd stand up before them putting out his drink "How Empires and Kingdoms fall to the Irehearts, how wigs are snatched by those shorter than them! The ISA crumbled beneath our axes, their generals no match for Ireheart prowess and how King Philip II fled like a dog as we marched up his city. The man who is named Duncan will never find a place to truly rest, as the Irehearts will never rest until we have his HEAD! But today is a great day, victory against the humans, but let us hope this other philip does not make the same mistake that most kings do, and underestimate the might, the unity and the true strength of the Kin of Urguan Edited December 6, 2021 by Elite_Snipes_ 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mika1278 2689 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Mika Uialben read the missive from up in his tower once more, enjoying a nice hot beverage within his hand as he read such, gaining a slight smile in the process "Ah, some rest to my bones. The throngs can go home once more and I can finally hang around again without being stabbed in the gut." 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhewen 348 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Volden Frostbeard sits at the mouth of the mountains of Urguan, beholding the vast valley before the tumultuous rocks behind him. He saw the fields riddled with blood and flame, the haze of war strewn about the hills. Shaking his head he puts the thought behind him. There is important work to do. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Indy 135 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Ferek would lean back in his chair, his room in the bastion of Rhewenholm shimmering as snow blew through the windows. His journal lay sitting on his desk, the ink drying quickly in the dry, frigid air. "Damn 'et, ah was 'opin 'tat 'tis'un'd last ah few good battles, 'tis book was goin' 'tah be mah best one yet..." The dwed would stare out his window, watching the sunlight glint off the falling flakes of snow, wondering what the future might hold. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnBaed 8957 Share Posted December 6, 2021 "Is this the point where both sides start declaring victory over the other? At least the good working people aren't being sent to die on the front lines anymore," remarked Celiasul in a brief bout of sobriety, until she found out her flask wasn't quite empty yet. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
