(Cedonia already did that.) The cedonian general are a little confused by the
way the Mirish army works. Were Cedoians have many generals Mir has only two.
The Warlord, and the Archmage. The big probel is not the armies but combining
the diffrent technqiues together.

The many nations of Qaiyore head Mirs call to war and an almost universal
decloration of war is declared on the Sinari. (The PC players can desided if
their society declares war or not.) But that as far as it goes. They are
contented in the war but thats all. Except Taltheran who has sent its armies to
its border to defend agaisnt the Sianri.

The Sorcerer haveing already determend that it was in the south begin to tare
the south apart. Acoponed by Eerith how on more then once saved them as the
were going throught the southern forest from stay goblins often as not would
always be under the Sorceres feet. They do narrow down the area though.

Eubratosa ever the diplomat seeing that the council is devided desided that the
only way to gain more power is to forse his power on them. He begins to turn
towards the foriegn leaders in Mir for support. Espesial the Celpalar military
advisors.
