I'll put this out as easy because of the chaotic situation on Taltheran.

*Resolution:* Diff = Easy (+1) + Dice (000-) + Extras () = 0 Mixed results

*Results:* Information Secretariat continues its growth. However, it
is possible that counter-spies are infiltrating the organization.

In a bold move, the Secretariat involves several Eerith that had taken residence with some senior Secretariat agents, seeking their advice on the nature and direction of their research into this new "mental science".

Keaton: I'd appreciate your input here about how do you see Eerith
acting about this issue... any bonus?

Now, I really have to put out some numbers. There are some
differences between population figures on the Qaiyore world and
game websites (w.r.t. Kaeir). Hmmm... I'll have to fix those at
some point, but for now I think it's safe to say that the sizes
of Kaeir Republic, and the area Salokin controls are about the same,
and therefore also the amount of troops is about the same. However,
Kaeir has swelled its ranks with volunteers, and there's the previous
increase, too.

Salokin's royal forces: size Very small (-3), force Great (+2) = -1
Salokin's militia: size Small (-2), force Mediocre (-1) = -3
Kaeir navy: size Very small (-3), force Good (+1) = -2
Kaeir volunteers: size Fair (0), force Mediocre (-1) = -1

Mods: -1 for Kaeir (see actions in 1436), +1 for Salokin (defending)

Total for Salokin: -1 (greater value of separate troops is used) +1 +1 = +1
Total for Kaeir:   -1 (...)

Thus, basic difficulity for Kaeir is -2 (very hard).

Any opinions or questions before I roll the dice?

*Results:* A small embassy is established in Jabau, but its access to 
outside of
town is very limited.
