It's time for the fight that may just determine the outcome of this war. Best of luck to all three groups; the rest of us will be covering you as best we can!

Princess Lymsleia, under her unacknowledged-by-us position of Queen, has issued a challenge to the Aurora Army, for brother and sister to meet in battle. This is most likely a result of the Godwins using their puppet as a desperate resort, and everyone here is treating it as such, even His Highness himself.

It's encouraging to be part of a group that doesn't allow an extended downtime to effect their performance; despite the lack of activity since the Doraat campaign, all members of the Aurora Army remain well-prepared, physically and mentally, to follow the Prince on his many excursions - good thing, too, for he seems to be making enough excursions for three entourages.

For those who weren't at the meeting this morning, the plan is as follows:

Ground Forces:
1. Approach Doraat until you notice a signal coming from the inside.
2. Move away from Doraat. If you can lure enemy troops to pursuit, all the better.

Steps 1 and 2 must be done while staying as far away from the Feitas as possible.

Naval Forces:
1. The ship led by Zerase, along with the Beavers, charge into the enemy naval forces, with everyone else being ready for back-up. No Godwin ship is to be left floating.

Ground Forces:
3. While the naval forces are occupied with each other, push the offensive.

The objective, as you all know, is to pass through the gate. Once inside, the Prince's entourage will engage the enemy leaders. Good luck!

So the date for the wedding of Gizel Godwin and Princess Lymsleia Falenas has already been announced, to the surprise of pretty much no one. Invitations have been sent to all neighboring nations, from our difficult neighbors to the Scarlet Moon Empire. No doubt the Godwin faction are seeking some legitimacy in the world's eyes.
