Union of Willow and Hart

Post by Orion »

After decades spent in a loose alliance in their mutual defense from Saxvenii and Calderii raids, the Kingdoms of Willow and Hart are uniting with the marriage of their two monarchs. King Landon of Willow has married Princess Anne of Hart, in a grand Valentine's Day ceremony, officially closing the gap between the two Brettish kingdoms and reuniting a significant portion of the Isles. While the two states have long had an alliance as a means of mutual protection in fending off pirates from Caldera, they both have had separate armies, government, and so forth, making coordination of resources extremely limited. Historically both Willow and Hart have held the least differences between two opposing states, and continuous raids from the Calderii and Saxvenii pushed them even closer together. Details of the unification process have not been revealed yet, but talk is of establishing a new national capitol as a fresh starting point. Locals are eager to see the armies forged together under a unified command, as this will severely hurt the efforts of Saxvenus and Caldera.

It has already been reported that the news has not been met favorably in Caldera, where thinning resources and a decimated infrastructure are leading to infighting among the population. Saxvenus, who have waged an intermittent war with Willow, mostly consisting of raids and border skirmishes, is said to be mulling the possibility of negotiating a more permanent peace, knowing it would likely lose a war against the united south-lands. If Saxvenus does indeed forge a pact with Willow and Hart, it will most certainly spell doom for the Caldera pirates.
