I sent my turn, but I won't be able to send the next before 3rd.

T'ien Ch'i scouts confirm: Nature's Wrath mitigated. Carrion Dragon vanquished. Bakemo allies misunderstood and unjustly slandered.

Attention Gem Traders; T'ien Ch'i to trade Fire and Death in exchange for Air, Earth, Astral. Trade of gems in exchange for forged equipment considered.

Address offers to The Celestial Court.

Maybe the game could be delayed a little since Mictlan hasn't sent in his turn and I certainly won't make it since it is almost 9 pm here and... it's new years eve.

[Valerius]

Sure, no problem. Sauromatia can't complete his next turn until the 3rd and we had planned on a New Year's delay anyway. So, I'll delay hosting for this turn by 48 hours (until 22:40 GMT Friday).

The proud lords of Pangaea are not so proud as to request help when it is clearly needed. Tien Chi grows more powerful despite our best efforts as our armies suffered several key defeats last month.

Any who currently huddle within their turtle shells while the battles rage should consider acting now to thwart it's advance, or it will rule the world very quickly!

The Van have watched this conflict from a far with only a passing interest. Our focus has been the demise of the great and powerful Wat, whom we have found to be a foe worthy of much respect.

While we find the growing might of T'ien Ch'i a power to be reckoned with, we note that it was the beasts of Pangaea that began this conflict, waiting no doubt for those of stonger mettle to first engage the foe. Now, after proving to themselves--and their allies?--that they are insufficient for the task, they ask for aid.

The Van take a dim view of such cowardly antics. We call upon all to witness: We hereby cancel our NAP with Pan.

Someone must have brewed some powerful beer in the Vanheim halls this year!

Where is the bravery, or sense, in declaring war on a kingdom who is joined with allies trying to contain a growing world-threatening superpower? We label Vanheim's actions 'hypocracy' and will eagerly await their mead-sodden troops for our minotaurs to chop into (pre-marinated! Quite handy, really) stew.

Were these the words of a true Prophet there would be calls for celebration throughout the world. The peaceful and just rulership of T'ien Ch'i is surely the undying hope of every man, woman, shambler, markata, bakemo and child of the land.

Were these the words of a false prophet of Pangaea any honorable citizen would question its credibility.

The Celestial Court has sought peace with both the Mictlan and the Ry'leh to no avail and are currently beset on a third front by the Pan. Our "world threatening superpowers" are wielded only in our self defense against intractable enemies.

The Celestial Court has itself received delivery of several casks of Vanheim spirits and nothing of its equal have we ever served. Not even in our humblest commoner inns are the foul grogs and vinegar wines of Pangaea dispensed. Have caution to who is called a threat and think twice before criticizing another's libations.

Good fortune,
The Celestial Court

Calm yourself fearful one. The Van war leaders can sometimes be harsh in their ctiticism, but this hardly contitutes a declaration of war. Arco's might transcends all public reports, and as we said in our previous missive, they deserve our full attention.

Is is truly war that you wish?

Indeed nature's wrath has been nearly tamed, though we are not defeated until the last naked lustful crazy lady sings!
