	The prognosticators associated with the military council have identified a major conjunction of the Sentinel Gate leading to Clisearn during the Spring Equinox. They are cautious about what it might portend, but they ~~cautiously~~ speculate that it might involve an opportunity to strike a stinging blow against the Grendel and perhaps demonstrate conclusively the sincerity of the Imperial claim to Mareave.

	Though the invaders have been pushed back into Fleisardh, they do not intend to remain there. The ''Brine Turtle'' and the ''Iron Gulls''; the ''Storm Sharks'' and the ''Naguerro'' push back against the [[Army orders#Steady Conquest\|steady conquest]] of the Imperial forces, and they push back ''hard''. Nor are they alone. Even as the new shoreline of southern Mareave is settling into place, the naval forces of the yellow-sailed Golden Winds and the crimson-sailed Shamal are sailing south from [[Redoubt]]. They sail past the cliffs of Icarion and Sinfoyard, through the waters of Beoraidh, to the rocky beaches of Fleisardh. By themselves, they would be bad enough, their marines well versed in the art of the shore offensive, but they also bring with them the Black Eels, the Bone Nautilus, and the Hamsin. The latter are supported by a a cohort of heavily-armoured [[Asavean Archipelago\|Asavean]] soldiers, mercenaries paid by the Plenum itself to make war on the Empire. The Grendel of the Hamsin - it is a rare army of the Broken Shore that is made up of the rich and powerful inhabitants of the cities and ports rather than the sun-hardened inland septs - are more than happy to fight alongside sell-swords they do not need to pay themselves. While the armies already here bleed and struggle to slow the advance of the Empire’s soldiers, the newcomers disembark, form up, and ready themselves to join the fray.

	The Empire are not without allies of their own. As the harbingers of the storm blow from the west, two [[Frozen Citadel of Cathan Canae\|frozen citadels]] rise in Mareave - one in [[Mareave#Nadir\|Nadir]] to the north, the other over the foothill of [[Mareave#Clisearn\|Clisearn]]. The latter is a sight to behold; a massive wall of ice stretching across the eastern end of the valley where the ''Ohwinn'' river winds through the foothills. The Fundindelve is sealed away behind great gates of living frost; the waters of the Ohwinn cascading through the wall made frigid-cold, colder than any waters have ever been in this arid land. This is no random citadel from the [[Realms#Summer\|Summer realm]]; it is the ''Isjättens Väggar'', and the garrison that issues forth is composed of massive frost-armoured warriors and a dozen immense ice giants drawn from the domain of Cathan Canae to protect the lands of the [[Imperial Orcs\|Unshackled]].

After [[Poets_light_but_lamps#Defensive War\|negotiation]] between the [[senator]] and the people of the mountains, a force of [[Skoura\|Skouran]] battle-engineers comes down through the narrow passes to the Redoubt. Perhaps five hundred in number, every soldier is equipped with magical arms and armour. Three hundred bear magical shields alongside their powerful warhammers; the remaining two hundred are empowered with talismans that keep them on their feet even as they press the hardest part of the fray with their massive thundering mattocks.

The winds from the sea pick up speed, raising dust clouds and wiping away the bootprints of the Imperial soldiers as they retreat, slowly, back into Clisearn, yielding the ground they have claimed in Fleisardh to the Grendel.

	After the Winter Solstice, the Empire is pressing south and west into Fleisardh. At first they continue to make headway - slowly, but inevitable pushing the Grendel back. Then the tide starts to turn. By themselves, the defenders of Fleisardh struggle to hold the Empire for more than a week or so - but that is all that is required. As the forces out of Redoubt, maritime and terrestrial alike, join the fray the Imperial advance slows. They hold the lands they have taken… but then the forces against them become too much to resist. For all their allies, the Empire’s forces are simply too badly outnumbered. The Grendel press them hard, and step by step they are forced to retreat.		After the Winter Solstice, the Empire is pressing south and west into Fleisardh.

	Fleisardh is lost; the Seventh Wave and the Winter Sun pushed back. As the weather worsens, they make a stand in south-western Clisearn. With the ''Isjättens Väggar'' and Rucraic’s Redoubt at their backs, with the magicians of the [[Golden Pyramid]] at their [[Mareave#Grand Lodge\|Grand Lodge]] offering what support they can, they erect their own wall of ice and steel between the valley and the arid flatlands of Fleisardh.

	The two sides have ~~maneuvered~~ around each other, the Grendel [[Army qualities#Resilient\|grinding forward]] and the Empire attempting to take ground with [[Army orders#Steady Conquest\|as few lives lost]] as possible. Here though on the border between Fleisardh and Clisearn, the skirmishing thrust and counter-thrust comes to a head. Blood soaks into the sandy soil, blood of orcs and human and supernatural warrior alike, and the ground swallows it thirstily. Thundering cries of battle, a storm of swords and shields, a furious tempest… and what is below is echoed in the skies. The storm breaks, the clouds tear open with a peal of thunder that deafens and dazes many Highborn [[naga]] with its sheer violence. Rain begins to pour down, and the soil drinks it just as greedily as it drinks the blood.

	It lets something loose, this Spring storm. The fury in the clouds is echoed by the soldiers fighting below. In a different time, in a different place, it would be chaos but not here, and not know. The Imperial armies are bound by the clarity of Day; the Grendel armies may be barbarians but they are ''disciplined'' barbarians. A mad dance of strike and counterstrike unfolds on the border between Fleisardh and Clisearn. Each ~~maneuver~~ is met and countered, each counter turning into a riposte. Here three landsharks fight human and orc warriors with a towering ice-giant; there a bronze colossus is beset by a dozen Stone Born and just before it is brought down Unconquered arrows force the Grendel to withdraw.

	The Sannite on the battlefield hear the voice of Rucraic himself roaring in the storm winds, urging them to strike without fear and show their former masters ''who they are''. Their warcries are echoed by the Black Eels, the reaver-army that roars the name of Rucraic even as they strive to steal the bounty of rich Clisearn and the Funfindelve. Sannite and Grendel clash like never before in that liminal space, that shore between the dry land and the mountains.

	[[Mareave]] is a dry land. There are areas where the ground will nurture crops, but they are few and jealously guarded. The fertile valley of Clisearn knows the gentle touch of fresh water, but even the Brine Turtles must rely on their purified waters to sustain their sept. In the north, the soil is dry and arid and easily blown by the winds. The Unshackled are working to bring water to the north, with their great aqueduct, but it is a slow process. For most of the people of the southernmost land of the Empire, the only fresh water they know is dragged up from deep underground, or falls unpredictably from the sky during the violent Spring storms. This year is no different; dark clouds gather above the Bay of Catazar as Winter fades. They rumble and grind against one another, portending the tempest to come, and the waves that will crash once more against the western cliffs as they do every year.		[[Mareave]] is a dry land.
