Harvest Time
Erinestra, perhaps seeking a new chapter in her life's story, made the decision to liquidate her small shop.
Broar and Ten-thane Finn embark on financial ventures, taking loans from moneylenders. Broar swiftly uses the funds to repay an existing debt, demonstrating a keen sense of financial responsibility.
Hundred-thane Ondureen's efforts to encourage a God-talker at the Babeester Gore shrine to resign meet with resistance, showcasing the challenges inherent in such requests.
Finn's aspirations for a Hundred-thane position within the Eaglebrown Warlocks regiment meet a roadblock as no vacancies are available at the moment.
The pursuit of opportunities as aides leads to both triumph and disappointment. While Broar, Johannes, Rufus, and Ten-thane Erik's attempts to secure positions yield no results, Lavi's perseverance results in an appointment as Aide to Lady Doisola Jarnarensdaughter. Similarly, Ondureen's dedication is rewarded with an appointment as Aide to Lady Instershi Terdisdaughter.
The decisions of leaders, such as King Argrath and Elusu, shape the course of events. King Argrath reappoints Gananvar Tolaison as Warking, a role integral to the tribe's leadership structure. Elusu appoints Ten-Thane Havula Carasraisdaughter as her aide, reflecting her faith in Havula's abilities.
Efforts to influence the involvement of Mularik’s Company on the front lines bear fruit through persuasive arguments. Warlord Henastsdaughter's decision to volunteer the entire Mularik’s Company comes as a result of Ten-thane Rufus's compelling reasoning.
Rufus and Jarrek also tried to get Warlord Kalvathsdaughter to volunteer Goldgotti’s Company, but she refused. Jarrek, however, managed to persuade Hundred-thane Lisganison to volunteer Battalion 3 of Goldgotti’s Company. And off they went.
Initiations into cults mark moments of spiritual growth. Erik and Quatlu's initiation into the cult of Orlanth reflects their commitment to these beliefs. Grumbold's initiation into the cult of Issaries takes place before his departure for the front. Erinestra sought a position as God-talker of Issaries, but was bypassed. Lavi wanted to initiate into the cult of Lhankor Mhy, but was told to wait a while.
A mix of motivations and circumstances leads individuals like Julian and Rewolf to volunteer for service at the front lines, highlighting their courage and dedication. Julian volunteered for the Colymar tribal levy, and Rewolf for the Sun Dome Templars.
Newly arrived Rhosyn, the child of a poor Dinacoli cottar, joined the patrons of Erinestra’s Axe Emporium and Tattoo Parlour, where she bought a magical spear. Ondureen was planning to take her shopping to a shop Grumbold had talked about opening, but he had left for the front instead.
Broar, Dararda, Erik, Ondureen, Quatlu, and Rhosyn indulge in moments of conspicuous consumption. Erinestra became a regular at Fantarn’s, and Rhosyn at The Red Beaver.
Dararda asked Lt Warlord Duresata Natalsdaughter of the Snakepipe Dancers to be excused from a week of regimental duties, but she declined the request. Ondureen’s plea to be excused from a week of cult duties was also denied.

Re: 1630 - 8 (Late Earth) - Turn Report
The Front
Even when most are needed at home for the harvest, some have to protect the Kingdom of Sartar and Dragon Pass from its enemies. King Argrath decided to take command of the troops himself, reassigning parts of the forces to non-Lunar threats, and detailing tactical maneuvers and ingenious use of magic.
Assault on the Tusk Riders
Addressing the Colymar tribal levy, King Argrath reassigned it to assault Tusk Rider camps in the Stinking Forest.
The assault was inconclusive. Casualties were high, including the Warlord and the entire 2nd Battalion.
Hundred-thane Afur, leading Squadron 2 of the Colymar Cavalry, was mentioned in battlesongs.
The Siege of Bagnot
The Kheldon tribal levy, with the 3rd battalion of Goldgotti’s Company attached, was instructed to keep the siege of Bagnot going. Unable to provide the town with the grain needed for winter, and suffering from a lack of defensive troops, the town surrendered! Another victory!
The Defence of Slavewall
Addressing Mularik's Company, King Argrath ordered it to set up defensive positions around the recently liberated town of Slavewall, against Lunar counter-attacks.
The performance of the regiment was inconclusive, despite the instructions from the King. Minor units of Lunar raiders managed to harass parts of the local populace busy with the harvest. Despite this, the Warlord was promoted.
Assault on the Chaos Hordes
Addressing the Sun Dome Templars, King Argrath ordered an assault on Chaos hordes gathering in Snakepipe Hollow. The result was a bloody victory. Volunteer Warrior Rewolf was mentioned in battlesongs, and temporarily promoted to Subaltern. He was also seen looting the foul corpses on the battlefield.
