	With Ore Hills and the Greensward conquered, the Imperial army turns the brunt of its attention to the north-west, to Alderly. The Empire has made slow progress in the face of stiff resistance from the [[feni]] that dwell there. Oh, not in the form of armies, but in the shape of lighting raids from the dark, and stealthy sabotage. The depths of the woods are barred to the Imperial forces - simply too dense, too overgrown, too wound around with traps and ambushes and Night magic to permit an army to forge through. There is some suggestion of simply burning the woods, but the consensus is that that is a discussion for another time to be made by generals and senators, not honest soldiers.

	A welcome surprise comes in the form of the [[Black Thorns]]. They emerge from the darkness of Liathaven without warning - thousands of Navarr simply seeming to coalesce from the shadowed woodlands. They are ... hard to see in the twilight of Alderly. In direct sunlight, they can be seen easily. Out of direct light, it becomes difficult to keep track of them, as if they become inconsistent in their location. Powerful [[Night magic]] has rendered them inconstant and obfuscated in some way. They bring news of an umbral march through Liathaven, wrapped in living shadows, evading the ring of death that surrounded them and flowing across the woodlands in spite of orc attempts to pin them down, to stop them.

	The [[Golden Sun]] launch an overwhelming assault against the abominable unliving forces in Weirwater. They do not fight alone. Over forty independent captains fight alongside the Dawnish army - primarily Dawnish knights and yeomen, but a number of League soldiers and Wintermark warriors have also heard the call to defend Weirwater.

Over forty independent captains fight alongside the Dawnish army - primarily Dawnish knights and yeomen, but a number of League soldiers and Wintermark warriors have also heard the call to defend Weirwater.

	The Imperial armies are further reinforced by a grand cohort of knights from the Fields of Glory - some three thousand glorious and terrible warriors of the Summer ~~Realm~~, called from the demesne of Eleonaris by the combined might of the enchanters and witches of Dawn, to oppose the flesh-devouring husks inhabited by fell Winter spirits. Beneath gilded crimson banners. tall lords and ladies armoured in polished golden plate march alongside the warriors of Dawn, Wintermark, and the League. The Empire has seen the Knights of Glory before, but there is something different about these fae warriors. They are more gregarious, less arrogant... less bitter. There is a sense of true nobility about them that has been lacking before. They engage in courteous words with the Imperial soldiers they accompany. When the armies camp, the knights arrange their own pavilions of cloth-of-ruby-and-gold ... but once the tents are erected they send cordial parties to visit the camps of the Golden Sun, sometimes bearing gifts of fine wine and exotic foodstuffs. They act like allies of choice, rather than creatures bound by oaths to fight alongside anyone who calls them forth.

	And fight they do. The abominable invaders have slowly been driven north and east by the Golden Sun. Outnumbered perhaps three to one, they make up for their lack of numbers with supernatural tenacity - and with their unnatural ability to replace their fallen by inhabiting fresh corpses. Rather than a single great army, they split into multiple smaller groups, forcing the Golden Sun to likewise divide its forces. For the most part they seek to avoid pitched battles, preferring to try and prey on the yeofolk of Weirwater - because when they do stand and fight they are utterly outmatched by the Imperial forces.

	As such, the Empire now controls the Mournwold again. Any [[senator]] can raise a [[Powers_of_the_Imperial_Senate#Assignment\|motion of assignment]] to declare the Mournwold to be part of any Imperial nation. While there is a great deal of expectation that the Mournwold will be declared a Marcher territory, there is no legal requirement for them to do so - or even to immediately assign the territory at all. If they do so before Saturday evening, however, the civil service will arrange the election of a Senator for the Mournwold in the appropriate nation. The seat is traditionally elected in Spring, so any senator raised this season will serve a shortened term.		As such, the Empire now controls the Mournwold again.

	The {{Black Plateau}} has been upgraded from "murmuring" to "grumbling" by the Citadel Guard. This past season it has increased all casualties suffered by the armies fighting in Spiral by a small amount (not even a tenth), but the "grumbling" is slowly and steadily getting worse. Illuminates of the Citadel Guard suggest it will be bad enough to increase all casualties in Spiral by a tenth by the end of the Autumn Equinox. At the moment the relatively cautious strategies of the orc and Imperial forces are ~~minimizing~~ the impact of the increasingly dangerous Plateau, but it is not clear how long that will continue to be the case.

	A little more than six weeks after the Summer Solstice, there is another development. The Citadel Guard provide a warning, but it is difficult to disseminate it to the entire Imperial force in time. A night of nightmares sweeps across Spiral, a storm of phantasms and hallucinations not restricted to sleeping minds. Over the next week, there are scattered reports from across the territory of madness and despair - of hardened soldiers starting awake shrieking in terror; experienced scouts losing their way in terrain they know well; disciplined warriors ignoring orders and falling on their opponents howling like mad beasts. It is not just the Imperial forces that are affected; there are clear signs that the orcs have been affected as well. The strange, infectious madness adds to the confusion and uncertainty in Spiral.

	The Urizen know the cause - it is not a stratagem of the Grendel that is to blame, but the very fabric of the territory itself. Roused by violence, bloodshed, and passion the Black Plateau is beginning to "wake up" again. They can't predict how bad it will get, but they are certain it will get worse.

	In the end, the final battle before the Autumn Equinox takes place amid the broken ruins of the farms outside Culwich. The entire Imperial host draws up, and with grim commitment falls on the abominations. Committed to victory at any cost, the glorious warriors of Dawn strike straight to the heart of their enemy, charging en masse across the blighted farmland, flanked by the Golden Host of Eleonaris. The fighting is brutal, even tragic - by this time the majority of the Winter spirits are inhabiting the bodies of fallen Dawnishfolk, still wearing the armour and wielding the weapons with which they died fighting the unliving.

	As night falls - the starless night with only a sliver-thin moon - the people of Culwich light great beacons along their walls. Skilled yeofolk archers, master hunters, launch burning arrows into the oil soaked thatch of farmhouses near the wall, creating roaring bonfires. The polished armour and shields of the Golden Sun and the Knights of Glory catch this light and reflect it back; and for one vital hour, it is as if the sun has never set. The burning buildings serve as a convenient way to dispose of abominations; still fighting, many are forced back into the conflagrations and burned to ash. It is a tragedy, that the bodies of Dawnish ~~men and women~~ who fell in glorious battle receive no proper burial, and some troubadours weep openly when they hear of it.

	Unable to use the darkness to their advantage, the unliving begin to break. They retreat again from Culwich, north toward [[Karov]]. Even with the ability of the Winter spirits to take new corpses, their numbers are greatly depleted. Rough estimates suggest that there are only around two-and-a-half thousand remaining creatures in Weirwater - although not all of these are unliving husks. Soldiers recount engagements with dreadful creatures and even the occasional gang of living warriors among the host - servants of fell powers that have cast their lot in with the monsters ravaging Weirwater.

Someone - perhaps surviving monks from the Abbey - has planted young apple trees at the crest. There is some talk of disinterring the mound, but the Marcher soldiers are adamant they be left to rest undisturbed. The soil may have been soured, but it is still the soil they died fighting for, whether they were Marchers or not.

	There is no fight left in the Greensward. It is quickly brought under Imperial control. A skeleton crew of orc thralls are captured at the Singing Caves, left behind as the Jotun retreated north and west. They seem lost, more than anything else, and raise no resistance as the Empire sweeps in and claims the mithril mine. There is no sign it has been worked this past season. The fields are largely fallow - the yeomen who might have worked them have already left. Some have gone south to ~~Kharaman~~, passing beneath the walls of Fort Braydon. Some have gone east to Tassato, perhaps to join the Whittle folk in Mestra. Others have gone west with the Jotun, turning their backs on the Empire forever. The humans who remain are primarily monks and friars, tending to the dead, and seeking to offer some comfort to the ghosts that now haunt the Greensward.		There is no fight left in the Greensward.

There is no penalty to production until the barbarians conquer the territory, for example.
