	With the Freeborn moving large numbers of cattle through the Wranglers Market, it would be easy for Sunstorm military units to use the trade to spy on Arbonne. They could accompany the herds as they moved south, on the face of it acting like guards and wranglers, whilst actually spying on the slavers.

	At Bramar, a Wrangler's Market could be set up, and a Chief Wrangler appointed to manage the cattle trade there, working with the Dhomiro of Afar whose interests also lie squarely in this area. This would operate much like any other ministry, trading with the Iron Confederacy in rings (representing the exchange of cattle) in return for orichalcum and weltsilver, which the Iron Confederacy is rich in.

	But the suggestion of the Sunstorm is that the Imperial Orcs could use Wrangler's Market as a front to spy on Arbonne. Moreover, as long as the ministry was operated each season, the Suranni would have no way at all to discover the network. Indeed it would be in the interests of corrupt officials - of which the Confederacy most certainly has its fair portion - to not look too closely and even to cover up any evidence of spying that they did discover - because it might disrupt the lucrative trade.

	This has some in the Sunstorm concerned. It is great that the Imperial Orc nation achieved its first [[Ambition]] and won its own land, and that many septs have made a home for themselves in the nation. However, what makes the Sunstorm unique is that history of being forged not just in the heat of battle but in the discipline and order of legion life. Obviously the Winter Sun and the Summer Storm benefit from this tradition every time they resupply, but outside the fifteen thousand or so soldiers who make up those armies, there are many more orcs who would once have been part of smaller banners and legions, who do not seek to live the [[Reaver\|reaving]] life.

	The Sunstorm who have travelled here have noted that Afarjasse is in many ways the region of the territory in the greatest predicament. While the herds of Afar have restored a small measure of prosperity to the struggling region, Afar itself was never large even in its ~~heydey~~. The issue is that there is simply no reason to come here. Yet, the Sunstorm point out, these languid hills that roll hot and humid in the south would be a perfect place for a training encampment. That's interesting to them because Feroz is not like Mareave, which is hot but also notoriously dry, and it is certainly nothing like Skarsind, of course.

	Yet in time, they envisage, the Empire will surely go to conquer the rest of the Broken Shore, and that will mean dealing with hot and humid regions. There are said to be some parts of Claudheel, for instance, that are thick jungle. Feroz doesn't have that, but it is an excellent place for soldiers to learn how to cope with high [[Wikipedia:Wet-bulb temperature\|wet bulb temperatures]], for instance. If a Sunstorm training camp was built here, it would mean that the two armies who draw their supply from the Sunstorm would have no issues operating in regions with the humid quality. It's quite likely that Claudheel, at least, has regions which are humid.

	A year and a half ago, the [[Imperial ~~Orc~~\|Imperial Orcs]] began to seriously address the problems of aridity faced in their new territory of [[Mareave]]. Since then, amongst other wonders where once there was desert there is now an oasis in the region of Icarion. This was in large part possible because of expert Freeborn advice. That advice was not dearly, it seems they genuinely wished to aid their fellows. After all, the Imperial Orcs and the Freeborn have a bond forged by the Exemplar Ahraz that is a flame eternal.

That advice was not dearly, it seems they genuinely wished to aid their fellows. After all, the Imperial Orcs and the Freeborn have a bond forged by the Exemplar Ahraz that is a flame eternal.

	However, the [[Brass Coast\|Freeborn]] aid did not go unacknowledged. The Imperial Orc Assembly passed a mandate calling on the [[Sunstorm]] sept to go and offer what aid they could to the impoverished territory of [[Feroz]]. While it took a couple of seasons for the Qanat to be commissioned and for this effort to begin in earnest, for the last year members of the Sunstorm sept have been visiting Feroz to learn about the problems that beset it. Now, they are finally ready to present their ideas to the people of dust, flame, and glass - their siblings in [[Courage]].		However, the [[the Brass Coast\|Freeborn]] aid did not go unacknowledged.

	These times are fondly remembered by many of the older orcs in the Sunstorm sept - a time of learning to exist alongside humans as friends and allies, after Ahraz's hard-won peace and the subsequent end of centuries of enslavement. The legion camps are mostly gone now - while small settlements and outposts do exist, many members of the Sunstorm settled in Skarsind when it was granted to them by the Senate, and many more are looking to make a home in Mareave.
