Southeast Saffron
Posted by Apostate on 03/11/21
The conquest of the Saffron Chain by House Pravus has stirred battles between newfound vassals and their ancestral enemies who have attempted to throw back the invaders, and smash the houses such as House Leporidae that have allied with the Compact. The conclusion to a years long war in House Leporidae's Southeastern Saffron Chain happened on the shores of a neighboring island, Qadaath, where the Abandoned House Potitus, the pirates of Clan Blackreave and their assembled allies were dug in and waiting for House Leporidae.
The abandoned House Potitus, attempting to resist the Compact from their fortress-city of Scythia, had prepared for a long battle. But nonetheless, as they were engaged at sea, the myrmidons of House Leporidae, Lady Andromeda Leporidae, the brothers Pontelaeus, and Lords Remus Leporidae and Orland Amadeo made landfall. The battle on the beaches was bloody overwhelming with severe casualties being had by the forces of House Leporidae, including grievous injuries to Lord Orland, Savio, and Remus that should have stopped their advance. Determination won through and despite the initial bloodbath they were able to carve their way through the city unto the castle proper.
Aided by mysterious assassins, House Leporidae's forces infiltrated the castle in the dark of night and managed to open the gates for their forces. Reportedly Andromeda the Sword of Tremorus alongside Savio Pontelaeus fought the treacherous Darius Potitus in a pitched battle that was initially skewed against them. Despite the odds being against them he was felled by Andromeda, thus bringing the battle already known as the 'Siege of Castle Scythia' to an end. With that surrender, House Potitus and its domain has bent the knee, and the year long war that residents of the Saffron are calling 'the War of Two Queens' has come to an end.
With this victory, Leporidae and its allies control the seas and land in the Southeastern Saffron.
