Campaign Outcome

The ceasefire prohibits Imperial armies from entering territories claimed by the Jotun, including Liathaven and Mournwold. Jotun campaign armies in turn will not enter any Imperial territory.

At the Spring Equinox 378YE, the senate voted to accept a proposed extension of the treaty which will now end at the start of the Spring Equinox 380YE.

During the Summer Solstice 379YE, the senate voted to abrogate the ceasefire early, to allow them to provide military aid to the Lasambrian orcs against the Jotun.

Notes

Subsidiary motions to outlaw raiding on the Jotun during the ceasefire, and to declare the Jotun foreigners for the duration, were proposed and defeated.
