Editorial

Something special has happened in my RW campaign: I got married!
The wedding took place on 21 June, hence I couldn't devote much time to the Atrilian campaign in June. This is why this issue is, again, a little late. This had little incidence on the campaign itself, however, since many players seem to have got into a dormant state.
I shall repeat it again and again, but this is YOUR campaign. You shouldn't wait for me to create random events in order to stir up some response. YOU must act in order to get the game going.

Current Threads

THE GITHZERAI PLATEAU
The Xolas and the unheard-of nomadic tribe called the Nation have established a camp near the destroyed Githzerai tower, Mellin.
On the 10th day of the 2nd month of Peret, the camp was just going to be attacked by invisible, flying white-skin sorcerers (seems to be their favourite battle tactics) when something alerted the natives in some way, because they managed to scatter moments before the attack, reducing its effectiveness. The White-Skins cast some fire balls and stinking clouds, then left.
The total toll was about 40 dead.
Hadn't the nomads been alerted, the number of casualties would've been much larger.

THE RIVER PANGANI
The water of the river has become salty to the point that it has become unsuitable for irrigating and drinking.
As a consequence, famine and drought have stricken this farming region.
Starving people are leaving the countryside and are flocking to the cities and towns by the sea.
However, the recent increase in the numbers of salt-water crocodiles entering the river from the sea has hindered the fishermen in their work.
As a result, food is getting scarce in all the Pangani region.

MÂFIA
The ethnic strife between the island's Xolas (armed by the Pheacian military government of Admiral Yoram) and Bandogo has abated.
Rumour has it Admiral Yoram and the Ómukama are discussing an agreement between Pheacia and Dogobar which would bring peace to the Siren Sea.

THE RED COAST
An unknown ship was spotted in the waters near Shedet (see the previous issue).
The ship was surrounded by Gyptian vessels; the intruders claimed they had nothing to do with the attack against the Gyptian shipyard in Shedet. The ship was escorted back to the north whence she claimed she hailed.
However, the ship managed to evade her Gyptian convoy in the labyrinthine waters of the Pirate Islands.

PUNT
The peaceful Xolas living on the southern coast of Punt have started building a large harbour near their villages.
Imám Abú Djâfar says the harbour is being built with a peaceful intent.

SECT STRIKES ANEW
The new sect called 'the Slayers' which has recently attacked Búr Hammon and Búr al-Sâadat (during the 1st month of Peret) struck again.
On the night between the 3rd and the 4th days of the 2nd month of Peret, 'Slayer' raiders desecrated Pheacian temples in Dár al-Hamra, the largest Pheacian settlement on Mâfia.
