Stolen Thunder

Though Lord Pyro's forces were withdrawing from Asgarnia under the eyes of Queen Rosaline's envoys, her army of white knights didn't cease their march. Fort Valance lay empty and defenseless; a prize waiting to be won. However, before they could reach the enemy stronghold, a pale shape burst through the clouds and descended on the fortress with fiery breath. It was a dragon!

The beast had colorless scales and eyes like lightning. Every beat of its wings took it around the battlements where it spewed gouts of dragonfire. Under its unrelenting onslaught, stone began to melt and walls crumbled like clay. The White Knight host, unwilling to face the dragon, kept their distance as it wreaked havoc. It continued unabated well into the evening until all that was left were blasted ruins unfit for squatters, let alone a garrison. Only then did it retreat over the mountains, returning from whence it came...

By nightfall, Queen Rosaline emerged to proclaim victory over her enemies. Fort Valance, its smoldering stonework still glowing with heat, would serve as a warning to others. She continued onward to Silverhill with a detachment of white knights while the remainder of her army, barring Clan Silver (who receive the great honor of defending the ruins of the fort until her return from the north), return to Falador where they may celebrate their undeserved triumph.

Celebration

After receiving word of Duke Arthans defeat of the Zamorakian heathens that dared challenged Asgarnia, Duke Viktor began to make arrangements for when the Queen and the White Knights return.

A parade shall be held upon the day of their return to the city.
It's just business.

The Days After the Battle

As preparations are made for the festivities in the town, and the feast in the great hall, the Duke Arthan issues two decrees in order to restore life and the functions and facilities of society to normal in Silverhill after the siege. He allocates much of his raised army to begin humanitarian efforts; they begin a program of clearing the rubble of ruins of the outer band, which had been battered in the bombardment. Other work included providing foodstuffs and healing the injured, as well as burying the dead. Those common folk who joined the efforts of the soldiers were rewarded in wages paid for by the Duke himself. Although many lost their homes and possessions, no lives were taken in the bombardment to note.

After a generous donation of teleportation tablets from Leila Carcassa, the Duke Arthan hands them over to the brave cavalry of White Knights sent to aid him by the Queen, so that they may return home to Falador.

A letter would arrive addressed to the Queen of Asgarnia from the Archmage of the Wizard's Tower.


To her majesty the Queen.

I regret writing this to you, but Tyler Locke is currently imprisoned in the Tower awaiting a swift trial. The trial may happen by the time you get this letter. I know he is a noble of Asgarnia and he is being tried in his capacity as a wizard of the Tower. He had abducted a student in front of our esteemed Aether Guard who protect the tower. He was then tracked down and refused to comply with the Aether Guard. A fight ensued after he flung spells at the Aether Guard.

The details are still being presented to my as I write this, however I felt it necessary to get this information to you post haste. Especially as an Aether Guard who was at the situation was violently murdered and turned into a monstrosity. Know he has been injured while being subdued by tower mages and his injuries were seen to by the headmaster of the green order who is an esteemed member of the moonclan. We were informed by your royal physician that Tyler Locke suffers from substance abuse and may be mentally unstable. Know that he will not be facing any death penalties here, but he faces potential banishment from the tower and stripped of his titles given from the magical institutions who stand independent of all the kingdoms.

Again we are taking this seriously and he will be released following trial and punishment. It is my opinion that he should be looked at by the most capable of doctors in your kingdom when he returns there. These reports are disturbing especially coming from your royal physician. He needs help. I pray this does not cause unnecessary tension between the Tower and Asgarnia.

Sincerely,
Archmage Syll Sinn

Suitors Beware

As the kingdom celebrates its victory over evil a looming succession crisis threatens to destabilize Asgarnia. Queen Rosaline is a widow without heir. In light of the circumstances, she declares her future husband will be determined by a series of contests. Both noble and baseborn suitors are encouraged to make their case at Falador Castle where they may prepare themselves for what lies ahead.

Progress

Port Sarim has been steadily intaking supplies and laborers these past few months. Asgarnia’s Navy is nearly complete, dozens of new warships filled the docks. Along with this the additional forts and outposts the Duke ordered to be made along Sarimia’s borders were being garrisoned by bannermen of nearby vassals.

There was still a lot of disdain amongst the nobility and citizens of Sarimia towards Zamorakians. Some Lords have chosen to outright ban them from entering their lands and the Duke remained silent on those matters, solely focusing on the fleet and defense of his Duchy.

Reaffirmation

In the time since the siege of Silverhill was lifted, and Duke Arthan triumphed over Lord Pyro's forces, Silverhill began work on repairing from the damages done to the town and its defenses, to lend the service of his army, as well as paid volunteers from among his subjects, to build temporary housing for those who had lost their homes and restore the supply of food.

A few weeks into reconstruction, His Grace departs from Silverhill north with his retinue, intending to entreaty with other northern Asgarnian nobility in the province of the Blackmarch, leaving the administration of the rebuilding of Silverhill in the hands of his steward, to affirm once more the allegiances of those noble men and women to Her Majesty the Queen Rosaline.

Preparations

Duke Viktor was sent word that he is requested in Falador to govern it while the Queen set herself up in Misthalin. The Duke and a retinue of his bannermen would depart for the White City, while his eldest son would takeover the responsibilities of governing Sarimia in his stead.

Barbarian Village

Large group of armoured bannerless warriors tookover the village at Asgarnias borders. The Duke departed with a retinue of his men towards the village.

Port Sarim

A small fleet of unmarked ships would arrive at the port. They were met with no hostility and allowed to dock. Duke Viktors eldest son overlooked these matters and was seen greeting the strangers at the docks.
