	Regardless, it seems that Cold Sun has made only minor gains this season in territories bordering Lantir. Sadly, while only a few regions have changed hands, there have been numerous deeper raids aimed at claiming [[mithril]] and [[ilium]] that have seen hundreds die and further stretched the resources of the [[Silver Chalice]] to help grant succour to the ''scions'' civilian victims.

	There is some good news, however. Emissaries of the Commonwealth and the House of Princes have agreed to meet on neutral ground to discuss cooperation against the devastating rampage of Cold Sun. The Jarmish were already prepared to accept the need for collaboration with their bitter rivals due to the [[Weaving tangled nets#Celestial Arch\|politcal machinations]] of the [[Celestial Arch]]. The [[Archmage of Autumn]], '''Vossk of ~~Zenith Ascendant~~''' prevailed on the [[Prospero\|Sovereign Lord of the City of Bridges]] to bring the Commonwealth to the negotiation table, and provide neutral ground for those negotiations to take place. Neither side trusts the other, but a summit to discuss a ceasefire and potential cooperation was agreed to.		There is some good news, however.

	After some discussion with key embassy staff, the civil service has grudgingly responded to enquiries by indicating that their involvement means that it would be possible to make the formal letters sent by an ambassador a matter of public record. Arguments that the letters represent a "meeting" by an Imperial body facilitated by the civil service, and thus fall under the right of [[Member_of_the_Synod#Witness\|witness]], so all formal correspondence should be given to the Synod gets short shrift. But, if the Senate wished to do so, they could require that letters submitted via the embassy staff be recorded and copies published. This would remove any doubt as to what an ambassador has or has not said, and potentially allow valuable continuity between ambassadors.

	The civil service stress that this would ''only'' ~~effect~~ letters set via an embassy. Correspondence sent directly during a summit via [[Call Winged Messenger]] would not be made public. Furthermore, it would not be possible for the Senate to demand that ambassadors only communicate via the embassy - it is at the discretion of the ambassador how they discharge their responsibilities. Finally, it would be "all or nothing". Either all embassies would work in this way or none would; t would not be possible to pick and choose.

	The fact that both the Commonwealth and Jarm are making claims about what Imperial Ambassadors have said makes some folk uneasy. The only Imperial citizen who knows for sure what was actually in the letter is the Ambassador themselves. And, theoretically, the Imperial civil service of course. Each [[embassy]] has a staff of civil servants associated with it that will [[Ambassador#Communication\|handle communication]] with their counterpart in the nation they deal with. This handily defrays the costs of sending a [[Call Winged Messenger\|Winged Messenger]] and gives the ambassador an opportunity to compose a missive away from the chaos of Anvil.

	According to ''Lord-Magister Anton Trescher of the Hidden Hook'', '''Ambassador Thaumiel''' has revealed that Imperial spies have uncovered who it was that invited Cold Sun to destroy Lantir City, devastate the tiny nation, and begin the rampage that has so far cost thousands of Jarmish lives (never mind those of folk of the independent border region, or the Commonwealth). Thaumiel reassured their opposite number that the actual perpetrators were no more - that "''only ash remains''." They did not reveal ''who'' these perpetrators were but the ambassador said their investigations had confirmed "no Jarmish Prince was foolish or desperate enough to conjure up the Oblivion Flame" and invited the Lord-Magister "''to draw the appropriate conclusions''."

	Obviously, Trescher immediately reported to the House of Princes. Despite their public insistence that the Commonwealth was behind the atrocity, it is likely that the Lord-Magister may be quietly relieved to discover the attack wasn't carried out by one of their own. None-the-less, they have responded by ''demanding'' that the Empire ''immediately'' share everything they know. While the magicians who caused the breach may be dead, the people behind their cowardly attack must face retribution. The fact the ambassador has chosen to be coy on this matter means there are only three realistic conclusions, according to Lord-Magister Anton.

	The last season has seen the fighting continue, and members of the Conclave orders involved continue to provide support both on the front lines and behind the scenes. The presence of experienced [[Rod and Shield]] warrior-magicians fighting with Commonwealth soldiers has proved especially effective at countering probing strikes by the ''scions''.

	Following the Spring Equinox, and in part thanks to efforts by the [[Celestial Arch]], there has been an unofficial redirection of forces away from the battle lines between the two nations. This repositioning doesn't represent any kind of ceasefire, but perhaps a grudging awareness in both governments that soldiers fighting each other are effectively doing Cold Sun's job for it. Negotiations about a full ceasefire are underway, with the Jarmish broadly in favour (again thanks to the Celestial Arch as much as anything else), and the Commonwealth being stubborn.
