"Our troops are tired." Warlord Ria said as she pounded her fist against the table. The Archamge and Council of Twelve were gathered in the Basilica of the Twelve. in the center of the room between the half circle table of the council was an inlayed map of qaiyore. Magical images were placed around the map. A army was poised on Zelkor, troops along the Tanimbar border, and troops found deep within Tanimbar.
The council looked over the reports that the Warlord had handed out to the council members, archmage, and attending goverment agents.
"Moral is extremely low. The men rutenlly get sick, no, nothing to series mostly food minor poisoning and bad bouts of the runs." the Warlord contiuned. "then add to the fact that Tanimbar is help muddling the water with Sedonia, and so the troops are spending more time in that dieses ridden county side then fighting. The few raids we make against the goblins fail, and we have lost more men then nessisary. For crying out loud some idiot let Somacratisa get screwed by Gahntomich. Now our dragon is more intrested in her nest of eggs then the damned goblins. The troops are complaining, and loudly. The list could go on."
The Archmage raised his hand. The Warlord stopped talking as the Archmage came forward to look over the map. He waived his hand and images appeared in Rhudyn. "We have recieved a request to aid Rhudyn against the Ice Daemons in Aixelsydan."
Ria opened her mouth but slamed it shut when the Archmage looked over at her. He looked over at his son and then to Opozoya who sat in a throne on a balcony over looking the assemble.
"I have already read the reports and talked with King Opozoya Villard and King Victor Athelari." The Archmage said as he waived his hand and and line appeared from the troops in Tanimbar back to Mirabalpur. "I accordance with the agreement of Mirabalpur, we will continue to provide supplies for the war, and keep one coutrie in Tanimbar for the goblin extermination, but as of this moment we will begin the removal of all other Mirrish troops from Tanimbar." He pointed at Rhudyn, "We will provide the nessisary material resource against the Ice Daemons, and an advisor, and if at a latter time our troops are needed we will look once again at our situation."
The Archmages voice resounded with finality. He moved back to his seat and looked around the room and nodded to his son. Niotrosa stood.
"In acrodance with tradition the Council will now vote on the Archmages proposal." As to be expected it was unanimous.
********
Far to the south along the east coast a set group of five ships sat off the coast looking over the land as winter set in. Along the shore was a natural harbor with a palasade build around a large section, as barracks were beging to go up. Lord Asuada stood looking over the harbor from the Miracradsa they had been down for several months and had desided that not only would this be a good location for a settlement, but it was peaceful.
"I think it must be that the Ice Daemons are to exhausted after their latest invasion." Captian Olrand said next to Lord Asuada.
"We can hope." Lord Asuada said.
"It is a beautiful location." Captian Olrand said pointing to the mountian range in the distance. Lord Asuada looked at the white peaks in the distance. They saw a large shape dive from a rocky cliff.
"In Mir you never understand the beauty of a mountian. They truely are majestic." Lord Asuada said looking over them an sighed. He looked over at a sorcerer next to him. "What about the next expedition?"
"It will be here next year with more people." The Sorcerer Yul said as he looked over the hills. A set of dragon riders and breaders will join them. They ask that we begin planning for the magical defence of the settlement."
Lord Asuada looked over at the sit. They had managed to find a sit close to dragons, with a good defencive harbor that could actually support a small city at a later date.
"Let us go to shore."

NOTE: the results for Warmages conclude the action. Mir now has a working
training program for Warmages, which produces Coteries at a rate of 1 per
5 years. There are more Coteries in training, but the mortality/burnout
rate among the students is still high.
