The Dauntless

The elven nations of Evermeet and Evereska are allying with the Faerie against the insanity going on in Faerun. The Metallic Dragons and then the Gem Dragons join the alliance.
The Sharn, never well understood, are joining this alliance also.
Then the dwarves of the North, the dwarves of the Great Rift, and the dwarves of the Old South join the emerging alliance.
The halflings of Luirien join this alliance. The Ffolk of the Moonshaes join. The Free Peoples of the Moonshaes join.

Lichtenhart and Bugbear, have played a big role in this unification.

This organization agrees that Truth is the weapon to use against those who would corrupt and enslave the free peoples of Faerun.
This organization denouces the gnomes for what they have done, and exhorts the gnomes to employ their magical prowess for the betterment of people, not their enslavement.
And if the gnomes will not do this, then the gnomes and their books will not be welcome in the lands of the new confederation.

They call themselves The Dauntless.
For they say that while the Chosen of Mystra may have sold out their principals to expediency, they themselves will not do so.
They will stand for what is right, what is ethical, and what is reasonable.

The elves of Ardeep Forest (the elven Flying City) remains with the Chosen, however, and does not join The Dauntless.

"I seriously doubt they are doing this of their own free will."

"I know this is dangerous, but perhaps we could use the mind-influencing affect of the gnomish magic to write a new book, one which will compell the readers to act as they normally would, disregarding and previous influences?"
 

Misha will stand with the Dauntless, for their beleives are in accordance with his own... and if possible he will place himself at the mercy of the court of Evermeet, and be its sworn protector... and the Protecter of all of the Dauntless...

"A dangerous idea... that could backfire... I say we focus on breaking the enchanment, our enemies may have seen to placing certain dictums in their writings to counter that threat..." Misha replies.
 

All four the Editions of the Gazette reprints the old issue on how to deal with outsider, with many improvings, on fast-apprehending books, and delivers it massivelyin the countries threatened by the Infernal Horde.

I am somewhat surprised since I stand entirely with the Dauntless on this, I agreed with the gnomes only to get the books so that I could give them to my allies for analyzation. As Hannover is doing.
 

As news of the political alliances forming reaches the meeting.

"Interesting, it appears these Dauntless, and the Chosen are forming alliances similar in rationale, but different in means."

"I for one will support both. As their views are in line with my own, and are far preferable to other groups now moving across the land."
 

"I stand with the Dauntless, they seem to espouse the sme ideals of my own, and I agree with them, the gnomes, must pay for their extreme disregard of morality..." Misha replies.
 

Imaskari

In Mulhorandi, the effects of Serpenteye's magic is finally banished by a concerted effort from the government.
All Gnomish books in the country are confiscated by the government, then taken away for careful study. The effects of those books on the populace are painstakingly broken by the massive application of dispel magic dweomers.

There is great anger in Mulhorand at both the gnomes and at the Meritocracy.
Mulhorand declares them both to be enemies, and declares them the enemies of all free peoples (since Mulhorand has been on a warmongering effort of it's own, that is the pot calling the kettle black.)
Mulhorand states that it will 'liberate' Thay, Thesk, Unther, Chessenta, the Vilhon Reach, and other places from the corrupting effects of the gnomish magic, and ultimately will 'liberate' Lantan from the tyranny of the gnomes.

Apparently, the Mulhorandi, using the new understandings of magic, have unearthed great artifacts out of their own past - artifacts from the Imaskari Empire.
Whatever the case may be, the military power of Mulhorand has taken a sudden jump of enormous proportions.

The Mulhorandi Army will soon be on the march.

Damara, with it's newfound power and alliance with the Spirits of Nature (who appear as unicorns, mighty creatures of legend, living tornadoes, floods, great gouts of fire, and as living stone) join with Mulhorand.
Damara has it's own legendary past, and the Damari state the time has come to put aside their historic differences with the Imaskari and seek common ground.
The threat from abroad requires intelligent men and women to seek consensus.

The combined Damaran-Mulhorand Alliance renames itself Imaskari, after the legendary nation of old.

Murghom, caught between these two powers, and under intense diplomatic pressure from both, agrees to be annexed (well, I wouldn't say that agree is quite the right word ...) into the new nation.
 

Not surprisingly, Krysophrenos expresses full appreciation at the creation of the Dauntless. he offers a space in the Gazette whenever they need to communicate quickly with the population.
