   Greetings to all from the Atala Confederacy.

   Our land claims are well documented on the many player websites
   as in the previous of the Times.  The Atala Confederacy claims
   sovereignty over the continent of Atala in its entirety.  This
   has been so for many olympian months and years.

   Recently, we have seen an increase in the frequency of incursions
   and scouts within on our continent by the that faction "The Celts"
   lead by the notorious Hugh O'Neil.

   To avoid future debate and rumourmongering of the our ruthlessness, I
   hereby make it public known that I, as speaker of the Atala Confederacy,
   has contacted Hugh O'Neil and gave him 6 real-life days to reply to my
   messages with a suitable answer to my request that he leave our lands
   peacefully.

   The deadline has now passed and I have received no reply with regards
   to The Celts leaving our lands.  Therefore..I make it publicly known to
   all, that the Atala Confederacy will give Hugh O'Neil and his faction
   exactly 2 Olympian months to vacate our lands peacefully.  After which,
   we will kill any non-Confederate nobles found on Atala.

   This is our first and final posting on this matter.

   Sincerely..  Speaker of the Atala Confederacy.

Travellers Warning! Eastern Provinia & Western Camaris

Rimmon & Yellowleaf and entire surrounding area - High Hazard
Good chance to be caught up in this - better stay away!

Greyfell - Hazard
Large stacks have been observed in the area. Stay well clear
of especially Luxor [m44] in [ca52].

Harn - Hazard
The Tanstagi are now at war with the Lords of the Crown, also
the Southmarche seem to have become dragged into this. It is
likely others might be inadvertently dragged into this as well.

Western Camaris - Ultimate Hazard!
Crimson Dragons are at war, and have promised to slay all trespassers.
