 +===== War in the Northeast =====
 +=== 1/1/10082 - Ongoing ===
 +Jovial New Year’s celebrations in Shinneok were violently disrupted by news from Pthora and a brutal, yet short-lived attack on a military base on the eastern Shinneok coast: in retaliation for an attempt on the Pthoran High General’s life, Pthora has declared war on Shinneok. 
 +
 +This is no surprise to anyone keeping up with events of the past few years; the conflict has been a powder keg for a long time, and it seems like this attempted assassination finally blew the shed. The Shinnean army denies any such matters, putting any such attempts on the High General’s life up to the activities of an unrelated adventuring party. 
 +
 +Regardless, the New Year’s attacks have stirred ire in Shinneok. They now look westward to their allies in the Oxis and southward to Ley’Ork for assistance in a counterattack.
 +
 +As of 1/10/10082, Ley’Ork has responded and sent troops, as well as supplies, to bolster the Shinnean forces. Arenti and Vervand have made no such moves, seemingly leaving Shinneok to fight this war itself. Some say this is a bad sign for the formerly tightly-allied Oxis…

 By 8/10/10081, dimensional magic had begun to stabilize, and the anomalies seen with elemental and spiritual magic subsided. The topic of whether Mordrik should be fully reincorporated into Vervand was debated, but by New Year's Day of 10082 they decided to make the island an "Autonomous Administrative Division" of Vervand. It continues to govern itself while both Vervand and Ulos assist its reintegration into Cahyali. By 8/10/10081, dimensional magic had begun to stabilize, and the anomalies seen with elemental and spiritual magic subsided.

   * **Ginkawa River Valley Battle:** 8/16/10081. Won by the Ruefang Continental Army, securing major river ports and establishing a chokehold over transportation and supply lines over Juuken. They close in on the suspected location of Bakuhatsu Kenzo, acting warlord of Juuken.   * **Ginkawa River Valley Battle:** 8/16/10081.

   * **Tetsutou Iron Mine Battle:** 8/22/10081. Won by the Ruefang Continental Army - barely. As the Raikoujin army began to see defeat on the horizon, it was found that they had rigged the mine with explosives prior to the fighting. Just when the RCA thought they had run, the mines exploded, collapsing and burying an as-of-yet unknown number of people inside. The mines have been rendered impassable and inoperable.   * **Tetsutou Iron Mine Battle:** 8/22/10081. Won by the Ruefang Continental Army - barely.

-  * **The Second Cloudfall:** 8/29/10081. During a battle, a certain magical event led to an eruption in the Raikougan leylines, destabilizing the weather patterns and leading to a second Cloudfall event. From 8/29 to 9/6, passage in or out of the Raikougan was impossible due to the hurricane, and a constant storm covered the entire nation. +  * **The Second Cloudfall:** 8/29/10081.

 +After the end of the Second Cloudfall, it was revealed that Nan Fengge had been working with a group of conspirators to foster war in the Abundance. Him and his associates have been court-martialed and will stand trial by their respective governments, and the RCA has been disbanded and replaced by a **Commission of Justice**. Additionally, a **Commission of Development** in charge of reclaiming Ruefang's wilds lost to the leyline crisis and continuing infrastructure is being established. 
  
 +There is no remaining alliance or partnership between Ruefang and Raikougan, and any lands claimed by the RCA during the war have been peacefully handed over to the Shogunate.

 Others are hired on by the [[settings:jaern|Jaernian]] company Lithicore Mining, who has set up a headquarters near Tiancheng City in the north and seems to be importing advanced cybernetic technology developed off-plane. These adventurers assist a small underground resistance in fighting back against the company. Thanks to the help of these adventurers, Charles Lithicore falls and the Ranch comes under the control of its workers. Others are hired on by the [[settings:jaern|Jaernian]] company Lithicore Mining, who has set up a headquarters near Tiancheng City in the north and seems to be importing advanced cybernetic technology developed off-plane.

-Still more adventurers investigate the mystical side of Ruefang, discovering and awakening the five great slumbering Long, guardian dragons of the land. They also discover the machinations of corrupted spirits who may be tangled up in the Ars Machina affair as well... seeking to use the engine to transport themselves and their influence across Cahyali. They devise a ritual to stabilize the lines, getting rid of the corruption that plagues the land.+Still more adventurers investigate the mystical side of Ruefang, discovering and awakening the five great slumbering Long, guardian [[lore:creatures:greatbeasts:dragons|dragons]] of the land.

 Events come to a head as the Engine launches on schedule midday of 6/5 - however, every passenger car is left behind, as adventurers appear to have disconnected the engine and front security car from the rest of the train. Alone, these two cars speed ahead, and a fierce battle takes place: Zuanshi Hua, Charles Lithicore, and a coagulation of corrupted spirits face down the valiant efforts of adventurers and their allies, only to be defeated in the end as the engine approaches the leyspring. Events come to a head as the Engine launches on schedule midday of 6/5 - however, every passenger car is left behind, as adventurers appear to have disconnected the engine and front security car from the rest of the train.
