384YE Winter Solstice winds of fortune
Overview
Winds of Fortune
I Knew You Were Trouble (Plenipotentiary)
- Archmages and the Imperial Conclave; specifically invited guests including: whoever is in charge of the Anvil Library, Minister of Historical Research, Imperial Advisor for the Feni, Seer of the Gateway, Imperial Seer, Imperial Archivist, Loom-Master Borys, Boyar Vasiliy Strascovich, Enchantress Remys, Lutobor Branislavovich Glinka, and both Tuktu and Raziel of the Saker
Each archmage can each communicate with a single eternal each season by sending a plenipotentiary message to their magical realm every season. The eternal is bound to respond - perhaps with a formal parley, perhaps with something unexpected. As the Winter Solstice approaches there are replies to each of the messages sent the previous summit. Not every eternal has agreed to a formal parley, and one eternal has refused point blank to speak with the archmage directly.
You can find the details of this season's plenipotentiaries in I knew you were trouble.
Write Your Own Ending
- Urizen, especially citizens of Zenith; Imperial Senate; Imperial Synod; General of the Seventh Wave; Imperial Consul; citizens of Highguard, the League, the Brass Coast
The Empire has finally regained complete control of Zenith. The armies of the Empire have forced the orcs of the Mallum out of Lustri and sent them fleeing into Sarangrave. With the land liberated, the territory is again part of Urizen. Now the Empire seeks a way to restore it. The Druj have left a bitter legacy, destroyed everything that could not be stolen, and left the once beautiful territory in ruins. Now every sinew of the Empire's body strains to the challenge of restoring Zenith. An appraisal has been commissioned; the Prosperity assembly has asked the virtuous tu turn their eyes on the territory; a potent enchantment has enfolded the mountains; and the Imperial armies have devoted their efforts to gathering information and uprooting the Druj's poison. The war for Zenith is won, now the Empire must make something of the victory.
You can read about the situation in Zenith, and the opportunities to recover it from ruination, in Write your own ending.
Other Events
There are a number of other events and situations which are noteworthy, but which for whatever reason have not led to a full Wind of Fortune in their own right.
Trade Summary
Rather than spread this information out around the various foreign nations, we've collected it here for ease of reference.
Mandates
- You can find details of the mandates, along with the rest of the Synod judgements, here.
Nine mandates were successfully upheld in the Imperial Synod. All mandates have been automatically enacted as long as the named priest has sufficient liao in their inventory before Downtime opens. Some mandates were upheld by their respective assemblies but not enacted.
Autumn Conjunctions
- Last event there were a number of conjunctions of the Sentinel Gate; their known outcomes are listed here
During the Autumn Equinox, there were a number of conjunctions of the Sentinel Gate identified by the Imperial prognosticators. In each case a band of Imperial heroes used that conjunction to travel to a location far from Anvil and intervene in a ongoing situation. These are the known outcomes of those conjunctions.
