The War of the Nine Kingdoms

The War of the Nine Kingdoms is an ongoing war in Erde. Started on May 7th 2717SS, it affects every nation on the continent, and although some nations have proclaimed neutrality, such as Suuz, Ciril Danath and Rodrana, they are still involved.

The Western Front
The war started on May 7th 2717SS when a five-thousand strong army of The Order of the Black Rose laid siege to Boeime. Shortly after, Erich Reimund crowned himself King of Nesfeneu, and assassinated many high-level diplomats in The Great Purge of 2717SS.

Boeime was militarily guaranteed by Fandalor, who declared war on the now united Nesfeneu immediately. However, Reimund had managed a perfect surprise, for Fandalor was not ready or mobilised for war.

On 29th May 2717SS, nine thousand men of The Royal Nesfeneu Army laid siege to Castle Ferre before the local garrison stationed in Mainnois could reach it, cutting them off from reaching the tired defenders. The army, led by Ser Ian Rickensen, a veteran of war, manages to break the walls with concentrated artillery fire in only twelve hours, holding off on an assault of the keep due to the larger Fandalori army mobilising by Mainnois.

On 30th May 2717SS The Regedai Empire imposed a blockade on all trade within The Frozen Sea. Overwhelmingly affecting Shaw Cral, a nation who regularly trades with Nesfeneu, Shaw Cral aligns with Nesfeneu, although not declaring war.

The Elven Front
After hearing about the mobilisation of The Regedai Empire, Achait proclaimed themselves neutral but guarantors of Suuz. On the morning of Monday 4th June 2717SS, Eigar Umalen, Doge of Achait ordered three-hundred ships carrying two-thousand men to set sail headed for Suuz to defend the city from any Regedai attack.
