Drama
The most recent large scale war has come to a stalemate, the outcome is still undecided though.
A threat is festering in the great southern jungle, none who have entered in the past 200 years have ever come out.
The Northern tribes continue to raid the coasts of the continent and strike with lighting speed. In recent years however the frequency of the raids has decreased. So far there has been no viable answer to the problem of the raids.
The Dwarves of the ringing mountains, with the help of the greatest Chaldic artificiers have been succesful in creating a new type of weapon. One that will revolutionize warfare, and potentially be the downfall of the current Feudal system.
