City Troop Withdrawl

The proposal for unilateral reduction of troops on the City Surface was aborted due to the complicated political situation. Currently the Union and Confederate forces are matched, but uninvolved in more than self protection until a firm position can be decided. Minor losses have been suffered at the hands of the rioters, but within acceptable parameters.

Assault on the Sky Fortress!

Months after its completion, multiple attacks have been made on the sky fortress, forcing expensive reconstruction work.

The attacks were carried out by lone storm mages, one utilizing chaos, the other darkness. As yet the fortress guards have few leads on who or why, though they are requesting details about a trade vessel known as the scurrying rat.

The High Life

The Dixie clan have finished a masterpiece of contraband technology: A drug known simply as 'spirit'. All who have tried the stuff comment that there is nothing on earth like it and then steal your wallet to buy some more. A recent trade deal with the city fell through, meaning the clan have a spare supply going on the open market.

The People's Stadium Opens

A rousing song in the name of El Presidente:

I will build for Him
Build for Him whatever He may ask,
And for Him, this always will be
For nothing can keep me away,
It is my destiny.

I will build for Him,
Ever since He touched my heart I knew,
There isn't a capitalist pig,
A fragment so wide it can keep,
Keep me away, away from His love.

I love Him, I love Him, I love Him,
And where He says,
I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow.
he'll always be my true love, my true love, my true love
from now until forever, forever, forever

I will work for Him,
work for Him whatever He may ask,
There isn't a fish that's so big,
A mountain so high it can keep,
Keep me away, away from His love…

I love Him
(Oh yes I love Him)
I'll follow
(I'm gonna follow)
Follow Him
(Him Him)//

There isn't a capitalist pig
A fragment so wide it can keep,
Keep me away, away from His love

I will follow him...
