Council on the Second Crusade

Political event

"It was the will of Theandros. And by his grace, we pushed the pagans out of the land that rightly belonged to the church. If only men had seen fit not to interfere with God's will, the prophecy of our Lady Alaena may finally have been fulfilled this day." -Presbyter Gaius Tuscany, Against the Pagans

Having received word from Samayaris that Presbyter Lione had been murdered by cultists, the Presbytery Council meets to discuss what must be done. The Cruciferiery party within the council brought forward Alexander Cruxan III's petition for a second crusade once more. In a vote of 85 for, 15 against, the petition was passed.   On the 28th of Theandrar, 469 3e, a second Crusade was declared on Samayaris. Scores of Church forces left for the distant land immediately.
