	According to ''Sea-Wraith'' Rahab is at Sabadellano, apparently relaxed and resting. Sea-Wraith claims he is camped outside the village's meagre stockade under the shade of a verdant wood, evidently much more jubilant and celebratory than in recent weeks. Something has changed with the orc and he is now, apparently far more genial than before, most likely due to the discovery of the Star of Attar.

	It is not clear why Sea-Wraith is providing this information, but whatever their reasons, this is a one-time opportunity to eliminate the governor. Successfully killing the governor won't destabilise the situation in Feroz, he will be quickly replaced. However the orc is widely hated across the Brass Coast. He is believed to have given the ~~Aseaveans~~ permission to attack the Isle of Osseini, allowing them to butcher all who lived there and Feroz has suffered under his increasingly tyrannical rule.

	Killing Rahab will bring a cheer to the Brass Coast in these trying times which will help the Freeborn armies stymie their current losses caused from [[Army#Insufficient_Supply\|insufficient supply]]. For the coming year, each army will only suffer the loss of 250, rather than 500 force each season (this can be reduced by a further 250 for each army if the Marchers continue to use [[The_Marches_economic_interests#The_Imperial_Breadbasket\|the Breadbasket]] to support the Brass Coast).

	A few days before the summit, the office of the [[Ambassador to Faraden]] receives a mysterious letter. The writer claims to have got wind of an Asavean plan to use their warships to attack an important Imperial target. Apparently orders have been sent out to the Asaveans, but only they know the actual target. The letter is signed "A friend of the Cupbearer". If this is a trap it is a very strange one. The Empire has allies in Faraden, but the Asaveans are there in force, so it's not improbable that a friend of the Empire has got wind of something and is looking to tip the Empire off.

	Rahab is no solider, so he will likely shirk from the fighting for the most part, leaving the tawdry business of combat to those beneath him. Even so, this will not be a simple proposition as the forces in the area are well supported and present in large numbers. Given the importance of Lord Rahab, the mercenaries under his pay will fight extra hard to ensure they are able to claim extra pay for protecting their ward.

	Rígbarddán is a relation of a recently arrived family in Apulian, having forsaken family ties and joined the moridun back in Attar ten years ago. Known to be a canny unit leader and tactical commander, his real forté is in logistics and business shipments. The family, and rising magnate ''Leann Dubh'' are keen to secure the return of the wayward relation, eager to turn his talents to bettering the economy of Apulus and the territory of Spiral.

	The orc is understood to lead a unit of Stone Born known as the Dune Scuttlers, and is unaware of their relation's shift in allegiance to the Empire. In order to convince Rígbarddán to betray the Grendel and travel to Spiral they will need some reassurance that Leann Dubh means true and they are not walking into an elaborate trap. The merchant prince of ~~Appulian~~ has informed the civil service that a white banner depicting a spinning top and fishing hook is an old childhood coded message that only the maistir would understand. If such a banner can be carried to battle, then there is a chance of yielding a defection. The League egregore has also made it clear that it is next to impossible that the orc could be accepted into the nation mid-battle. Instead, a casting of The Cuckoo's Egg will need to be performed to bring him to Anvil.

	The fighting has been fierce in Madruga this season. Whilst the Grendel have been pushed back it has come at a great cost in Imperial lives. The orcs of Attar and the Broken Shore still have a hold on the plains outside Siroc, just managing to hold off the armies of the Empire with guile and coordinated command. The war for Madruga is far from over and it is likely that more gruelling combat lies ahead for both sides.		The fighting has been fierce in Madruga this season.

	The Empire has been received information from ''Sea-~~Wrath~~'', the Grendel informant, that Governor Rahab is visiting the village of '''Sabadellano''' in the south of the Siroc Plains to address his soldiers. A conjunction has been identified on the Sunday of the solstice to the outskirts of the village. This unremarkable settlement holds little strategic value to either side in the conflict and lies many miles distant from the current front lines.
