From now on, I will be extra strict on sea travel. Leaders will need to have ships to travel across water. (You can have more than one leader on a single ship)
Also, NPNs will have a more active role in managing their domestic affairs. I am doing this in hopes of making some of the smaller positions more playable in the future.

Liao Chien, Khan of the Hsing'Nu, Imperial Governor of Liao Province
Diplomacy: Liao-Tung(f), Shangtung(p)
The Khanate, raising another four thousand six hundred well-equipped mounted troops, decided it to re-take the region of Shangtung from the Honan. So, they marched their army of twelve thousand heavy cavalry troops led by the brilliant tactician Liao Xi-Ju, into the region to re-conquer it. However, this time the Honan army would meet them on the field of battle to answer the challenge. Honan's army was slighly larger, having about fifteen thousand mounted troops, mostly heavily armed. However, Honan's numerical advantage did not translate into favorable results, as Lia Liao Xi-Ju's strategy to concentrate on Honan flanks surprised the Honan leader, leading to their withdrawal. But the Honan would counter with an attack of their own that would give both armies a significant bloody nose. However, both armies would again reorganize and prepared for a third volley which would prove to be the deciding battle. By this time the Honan had lost their numerical advantage, but tries to keep a formation to give the illusion that they still had the greater force by spreading their army a bit thin. General Liao Xi-Ju immediately saw through this plot and ordered his troops to concentrate on the middle to burst through the Honan lines. This strategy worked perfectly as the Honan army was completely routed and devastated. General Liao Xi-Ju carried the day and claimed the region of Shangtung for the Khanate.

The death of King Samarjit, and his brother Ardhatada a bit earlier, left a vacuum in leadership in the Pegu capital.

Emperor Hamadhamba passed away, but before he did, he ordered vast improvements to many cities and conscripted many new troops. However, Emperor Hamadhamba was a very suspicious man, and he ordered a purge of the military. Literally thousands of troops were executed, often without cause. Even Jarti was found guilty of something and executed. In the end, the military was decimated. Hupta would take control of the throne, putting an end to all the killing, at least for now. Lord Delatthi was sent on a diplomatic mission to Pegu, but that nation didn't take too well from such overtures and killed him on the spot. In other news, there was a wave of Humanist Thought that swept through the nation, making religious fervor weaker in the nation, and religious actions largely ineffective.

Sahmaru died in captivity as a rescue attempt failed. Angcur would lead the Zoroastrian army to the gates of Mecca where we would act to prevent the actions of Parsee leaders. During this time, Tethys ordered his religious leaders to crush the Parsee heresies, for which they were successful. The extremist elements of the Parsee were now significantly marginalized, and there was no chance in them splitting to form their own faith based on Zoroastrian teachings.

Finding that the lending of money is not, in and of itself, inherently more good or evil than any other activity, His Holiness, Brendon I, lifts the restrictions against usury from the good and faithful members of the One and True Holy Pelegian Church. With money lending, as with all endeavors, His Holiness charges the Flock of the Holy to ensure their motives and actions are charitable, true, just, and fair so that their souls would not weigh heavy with the sin of greed. This declaration was proclaimed in Maya where he Consecrated a Cathedral before passing away in his sleep.

However, it is on this mission that she perished from some unknown disease. Her death was marked with great sadness among the men of the Kingdom, and it was only by the stern objection of all the Kingdom's women, that her passing would not be marked by a national day of mourning.
