Kael is a resident of Tournai in Flanders, France. While his is not the first ship to make its way to the English shores, it was the first carrying trading goods. After docking in Hastings, Sussex and being officially welcomed by the then Countess Opheliaverse, he and a small party made their way across the southern counties. "First of all the attraction of the innovation...the discovery of another culture...the hope to weave friendly bonds without forgetting the commercial business..."

When asked what advice he would give to someone traveling for the first time,he replied, "That depends where one goes. For example you must know that for English who will arrive in Flanders...the economic aspect will be important since on our premises the food products are appreciably more expensive...patience, much of force and courage. It is not easy to leave...for an unknown area."

His first and favourite memory of our land was "...my first steps on the grounds English and the reception received on your premise."

The battle took place outside the town of Lios Mor on 29 January 1458. Lios Mor, a town of An Mumhain, had been made independent by the ONE army on 19 January. 

On 20 January, various leaders of An Mumhain and Cuige Chonnacht were called together by Sajanzv of Laighean to resolve the situation, and discussions ensued. The leaders included Daubigny, Garik, Padraig_mackenzie, Borisinborough from An Mumhain, and Steven7788 and Springtime of Laighean. As a result of the discussions, a plan was formulated and forces were mobilized. Of special note was the Laighean sanctioned army of Steven7788, which had soldiers from all three counties of Ireland under one banner.

By 28 January, the three armies had surrounded the ONE army, and battle ensued at dawn on the 29th. Over 100 soldiers of Eire from three armies were involved, fighting against almost 45 ONE soldiers led by Moldan. The ONE army was totally routed. Almost all of their soldiers were found at the point of death or injured. Notable among these is Anghelos, Commander of ONE. 

Only eight ONE soldiers managed to flee the battlefield. The Eire forces have stated they will hunt them down.

This battle marks the first total defeat for ONE on Irish soil. Ever since they arrived in Eire in January of 1457, they had been a cause of turmoil for both An Mumhain and Laighean. This victory also marks the first time both counties have come together as one to fight a common enemy.

The Independent Politicians(TIP) list were fully elected to Oxford Castle as there was no opposing list running. This is a first for Wiltshire in the two years since County governance was introduced.

The previous campaign for the elections saw three parties run. "China is King" (CiK) , United Brotherhood (UB) and Peace all sought to gain governance over the Treasury of Wiltshire, its Courts and Military. CiK took the majority with 5 seats, UB was second with 4 seats and Peace received 3 seats. A disagreement occurred about who should take the ducal seat. There was competition between Nivera, leader of CiK and Millicent, leader of UB. Peace supported Millicent, but a deadlock emerged when a list member of UB voted for Nivera (making the vote 6 vs. 6). After some talks between the Parties, it was decided another third candidate would be proposed for Duchess. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, it was announced the next day that UBs Millicent had been recognized as the new Duchess of Wiltshire. 

As the Election time swung around again , CiK did not yield an election list, but a Independents list, formed mainly of Peace and Non-partisan candidates lead by Millicent, made a stake. This terms election made history in Wiltshire as beyond its normal 3-4 lists, only the independents list stood.

As the TIP Councillors took their seats after election day, it was decided that Millicent, formerly of UB, is set to retain the Ducal seat and lead the new Government. When asked what her governments plans were she replied;

1. To make a drive with Player retention,
2. Next, we face severe economic challenges, along with the rest of the Country. TIP has not yet come to any official tactic for addressing the County debt but the majority of us seem to believe that Wiltshire is currently best served by focusing on maintaining a healthy supply of goods in the County inventory, 
3.Trade and Port development.

Chinahero was asked whether he would aid the new government. He replied: I am in the process of building a ship so I won't be around much. I'll help the council with Trades so long as they pay me enough.

They took the power away from the elected the council and the leader of the army installed a council of his own. The occupation lasted until just before the end of the year, when negotiations ended the conflict and installed an interim council.

On November 6th, the list The Hard line won the Chester Elections. They were the only list running in those elections. On the same day, the banner of the army Legion of Silence was raised, indicating its creation. The army was not sanctioned by the Chester Council. The leader of this army was Rouguelaw. The group responsible for its creation called themselves The Corsairs. The Wolves of Sherwood allied themselves with The Corsairs and joined the army.

On November 8th, Lorddragon was recognized as Duke of Chester. At the same time, a discussion started in the Military Council on how to deal with the Corsair army. Military leaders within the Council started preparations to deal with the unsanctioned army. The Chester Council feared that the Corsair army would attack Chester Capital and started preparations. The County inventory was emptied and taken to safety. According to Lorddragon, a 6 day reserve for mine maintenance was left behind.

The next day, November 9th, the Legion of Silence marched into the capital. No fights were reported. Either nobody had defended the town, or the army was allowed entrance by the mayor at that time, Aravis. The army occupied the city and took the castle. A new council was being installed, Rouguelaw declared himself Duke of Chester. The elected Chester Council fled the lost capital for Holywell. In the mean time, Elmix, Marshall of the Knights of Phoenix, asked permission to Lancaster Council to pass through their lands south in order to aid Chester against the Corsair Army. Lancaster lays to the north of Chester. Lancaster granted Elmix passage on November 11th.

On November 10th, Arthur_loxley, Duke of Stafford (the county south of Chester) announced the ducal decree Stafford Neutrality Proclamation. Its purpose was to indicate that Stafford did not want to support any side in the Chester conflict, not the ousted Chester Council or the occupying Corsair army. Stafford did announce a shipment of aid in the form of food, fodder and stone. The exact content of this shipment or how it was used was never made public.

On November 13th, Arkrantos, member of the Ousted Council, creates an army Chester Bowmen 2nd Division in Holywell. This army was sanction by the elected Chester Council. In the mean time, a message is spread in Lancaster Lancaster - stay neutral or vengeance will follow  WoS. The Wolves of Sherwood neither deny nor confirm to have sent the message. Lancaster chooses to help the ousted Chester Council.

In the House of Parliament, a State of National Emergency fails. It was called for by the Regent Gabrielle_ before the Chester conflict started and put to vote during the conflict. The ousted Chester Council did not support the vote. Lorddragon stated We stand opposed to National Emergency legislation solely because we need one command structure, one leader of our forces, and one body that decides which forces will enter, what their actions will be while they are here, and when they will disband. That body, per our law, is the Council of Chester. There is no need for the decisions to be taken from the hands of those elected to the position. Lorddragon does ask for soldiers to come help fight the Corsair Council. At the same time, Rouguelaw demands access to the Chambers of the Counts of England. The Regent denies Rouguelaw access and does not recognize Rouguelaw as the legal Count (and therefore leader) of Chester.

On November 17th, the ousted Chester Council in Holywell decides to make the town sovereign, as a form of protection against the Corsair Council using its power from the Capital. Holywells citizens lose access to the County services, such as the Courts, the University and the purchase of animals.

On November 19th, Helius, in an unknown capacity, raises an army in Beeston, Chester County. Lorddragon and Rouguelaw both deny responsibility for sanctioning its creation.

Going through the second half of November, Elmix KOP army and Arkantos Chester Army try to gather enough soldiers to deal with the Corsair army. At the end of the month, Elmix must move his army to the Northern border in Cumberland to defend it. England is defended with a victory, but the Chester Castle stays occupied into the start of December.

The Chester ousted Council searches for soldiers as the months passes on. On December 19th, 12 Sussex citizens travelling in 2 groups on their way to join the army in Holywell, are attacked by the Corsair army in Chester Capital, the first and only fight in the Chester conflict.

At the same time, it becomes clear what the purpose of Helius army was. Negotiations took place and the plan for an interim council were formed. The Corsair army would disband and the interim Council would take power until new elections take place. This plan is supported by the Regent and is carried out. A vote is held in the Chester Inn on the plan. 15 people living in Chester agree with the Council, 6 vote no. The total population of the two towns was tallied to be 244 people at that time. The vote receives opposition claiming it was not a real election. A request is given to the House of Parliament to recognize the interim council as the Council of Chester.

On December 29th, the plan is carried out. The Legion of Silence disbands and the Interim Council takes power in Chester County. The vote in the House of Parliament to recognize the Council fails: it does not meet the necessary quorum.

After New Year, Holywell is turned back to the County of Chester. On January 4th, the new elections conclude. The list Democratic people of Chester wins the election and gains 10 seats. The list Chester United gains 2 seats. Lylefujin is recognized as Duke of Chester.

In return for the peaceful resolution of the conflict, the people serving on the Legion of Silence were given amnesty. One person would stay to face charges for betrayal: Aravis, the mayoress of Chester Capital at the time of the conflict and current council member of Chester. Her case is still ongoing.

There are no reliable reports concerning the damage done. ]]></description></item><item><title><![CDATA[Election of Wiltshire's council :  TIP have obtained the absolute majority of the seats.]]></title><link>http://aap.lesroyaumes.com/depeches/depeche325137813.html</link><pubDate>2010-01-12 04:02:15</pubDate><description><![CDATA[LONDON (AAP)  The list Team of Independent Politicians have taken the lead in the Wiltshire  county council election race, and have gained an absolute majority of the seats.
