Looking out over the capital today. Le Brias has finally fallen into the proper hands, though I can't help but wonder... if our forces suffered such unexpected friction in the Fenn Kingdom, what kind of chaos awaits us as we push further east? It's highly unlikely some band of uncivilized barbarians could muster a fleet large enough to challenge the Empire, yet the reports keep getting stranger. Am I the only one who feels like we're stepping into a storm?
