The Theran Mystique - Volume 1, Issue 8
Recently there was a bit of a conflict between the Justice Tiernen and the Warlords Galhea and Corgath. Apparently Tiernen was traveling in winter with Xexes when they saw Galhea in the area. Galhea died, and Corgath went into winter trying to get to his comrades corpse before the others could reach it. They took him to be a threat, and slew Corgath before he could reach Galhea's corpse. Tiernen and Xexes looted Corgath's items, and continued in winter, getting to Galhea's corpse and looting it before the items could return to his pit. Galhea and Corgath took Tiernen's actions to be an act lacking honor, and hope that his actions do not represent the whole of Justice, especially since he is currently the highest ranking mortal in Justice--we can only hope that this does not lead to war.

Minions of Zaikkra are falling to the Theran defenders in greater numbers than ever before. Morale in the dark army is nearing an all time low, as evidenced by the attempted defection of one of their greatest allies, the undead thief, Aeva. First branded a traitor for being seen providing aid and comfort to the fell and abyssal invaders, Aeva now claims, "The whole thing was a mistake" and has petitioned the gods for a change in status. The loss of such a revered soldier has reportedly sent shockwaves through the ranks of Zaikkra's allies, causing some to wonder whether all hope of victory has finally faided. The few who still claim the Lich's power to be indominable have spoken of an as-yet-untapped reserve of fell and abyssal troops, who wait for the correct moment to strengthen the invasion force and overwhelm Thera's defenders. Despite those claims, many citizens see a quick end to the war as inevitable. Talk in the cities has turned rapidly from "How shall we defeat the invaders?" To "What should we do with the survivors? Few, if any, advocate mercy for the remnants of the Dark One's army.
