Year 218 AC
A small set of battles ensue between Karoon and Landshire. They were fighting over trade routes, how far their influence and governance extended and the gathering of taxes. Hundreds die and many villages, and even a city or two, fall to torches and raiders.
An epic tour of the world of Martapa, the setting for my High King's Sword Series I hope to someday get published. I hope you enjoy my world!

Year 217 AC
A disease runs it's way up the eastern coast causing stomach cramping, rashes and high fevers. One in ten die, mostly from misunderstanding on how to treat the disease. Magic healing halts the disease in individuals, but there are so few magical healers they can do little. The young and old are effected the most. Blockades of ships from the area occur, even adventurers and nobles are stopped from leaving the cities affected so as not to spread the disease..

The college of Dragon's Fire creates a printing press. It's not fast, but it is faster then hand copying books. The first book they print is "The History of Martapa", printing 50 copies. Hand copies are still the most prevalent way to print books.
Ogres come down from the mountains and attack villages. But they don't really take items, they almost act as if they are being chased and are simply trying to get away, not take prisoners or treasure.

This years gathering brings some controversy. Some of the larger cities want to band together as one nation, to enable the cities, and small kingdoms, to defend each other and build roads cooperative. Many of the eastern side cities do not want to band together, because they like their sovereignty. Nothing is decided, but many arguments ensue because of the discussion.
