	Over the last three months, Imperial forces have engaged in military campaigns. Sometimes those engagements have been wide-ranging and dramatic, other times they have been more sedate. Where there has been dramatic action, or where there are [[opportunity\|opportunities]], we've given a Wind of War its own page; other military actions are discussed here.

	And then at last we come to the eastern border, to the lands where chaos reigns between the water and the peaks. To [[Therunin]], where the [[Pilgrim's Defiance]] marches against the [[vallorn]] of Tharunind. They know they will not win, but the effort must be made to slow the vallorn, to let it rage against them, to answer its abominable furore with virtue and faith. They fight the unspeakable from the darkest past, to secure a future for [[Navarr]], burning with '''[[A bright cerulean flame]]'''.

			Finally let our eye drift further east, to what was once and still is [[the Mallum]]. To the marshes of the [[Sarangrave]], where the Empire advances on the last stronghold of the [[Druj]] in that benighted territory. The [[Sarangrave#Tower of the Skink\|Tower of the Skink]] looms above the woods and wetlands, controlling the pass that leads to allied [[Axos]]. The eastern barbarians are beaten but not yet broken; their forces in Sarangrave are depleted but they still fight. As the Imperial armies move, the air is thick with uncertainty; if we have learned anything at all from the campaign to take the territory it is that there are '''[[Other monstrous geographies]]''' at play in the eastern marshes

	Spring is the cruellest season, forcing life out of ground left barren by Winter frost. The inevitable wheel does not change, any more than war changes. Snow gives way to rain, and the rain falls on the wicked and the virtuous alike. It falls across the [[Bay of Catazar]], across the battlefields of [[Redoubt]] and onto the churning salt-expanse that is the bounded sea. The waves of the '''[[Deep blue sea]]''' murmur of [[navy\|navies]] and rocky shores, and the machinations of the [[Grendel]].

	From the mountains of Redoubt, let the ~~minds~~ eye wander with the wings of the gulls. South to the arid coast of [[Mareave]], now remarked and reshaped by the churning of the hungry sea. The sandy soil is thirsty, and there is neither blood nor rain enough in the world to quench that thirst it seems. The salt-winds blow from the sea and the storm rides on them. The horns blow, the drums beat, and armies clash beneath the '''[[Wide azure skies]]'''.		From the mountains of Redoubt, let the mind's eye wander with the wings of the gulls.

[[Mitwold]] has been invaded for the first time in centuries, the city of [[Mitwold#Meade\|Meade]] conquered and looted.

Across the border to the west, it is the Empire who are the invaders, striving to take back the Dour Fens of [[Bregasland]] from the Jotun who now occupy it. The war is fought over the only piece of dry land in the whole of the marshes, [[Bregasland#Gravenmarch\|Gravenmarch]], and the old stone plateau that dominates its skyline.
