Official Communiques dated for the Song Incident
Ministry of War
-----------------------
Althought the ministry itself suffered no physcial damages, there wereÂreported riots in all the forts around Mistone. The casualty numbers are high from the fightings between the soldiers and also between the commoners. A numbers of troops were sent out to contain the civilian riots, but, unfortunately, it projected minimal effects. All the forts are now recovering from the incident, and all those involved are forgiven for their conducts. Still accessing total damages.
Ministry of Intelligence
-----------------------
There were no indication of the starting of the incident from all the resources available. All the intelligence network shutted down, and we lost a few contact with the scouts forÂa period of time, but they have all reported back. A few of the scouts reported a party venturing trying to stop the whole event, namely Reventage D'vinn, Brac'ar Fireface, Plenarius Ashely, and Athus Dephillie. It is aquired from the conversations that the whole incident is caused by an Harpist being kidnapped by a mastermnd, presumed Milara, general of Blood. It is also known that this incident related to Ilsare. Further inquery is being conducted at this time.
Ministry of Magic
------------------------
Most of the mages endured the shock of the song without losing insanity. There are still a few incidnet of the mages on rampage, including Mage Dalton of Fort Ilast, who summoned balors in the fort. Scrying confirmed the extended of the damages, and is now handing over to the Ministry of Commonwealth to access. The mages have yet to find a way to counter the haunting melody, other than a strong bard who can counter the song.
Ministry of Commonwealth
------------------------
The inital damage accessment is staggering. Not counting the loss of human life, the physical property damages is around 5,600,000 gold pieces, and with the reports coming in, we suspect it will rise further. Currently a Level-One Accessment is taking place. Futher inquery is being made.
Ministry of Justice
------------------------
There are staggering number of cases currently on file during the Song Incident, ranging from looting, assault, to murder. Under careful review, most of the cases will be dismissed due to the outside influence. Most of the detention cells are filled to capcacity, and we have requested additional personnel to help process them.

Replies from the Alliance Ministry of Magic Research Team that was sent to Dregar to recover the artifact
Even though there are much rumor about, the excavation teams came up with no result on finding the artifact. Looks like many factions are into finding this ampilifier glove as well. We spotted some members of the Black Wizards, the Shadow Thieves...and we have reason to believe that the Layonara Merchants Guild have hired a group of adventuers to do their biddings.
Upon returning to Lorindar, there's rumor that the Merchant's Guild have aquired the artifact, thought further research is needed.

Report from Senior Agent Tarus
The team in Dregar have successfully retrieved the Core of the Magician's Gaunlet from the desertÂwith the help of Celgar Magnus, Lia Di'makiir, and the rest. It's on it's way back via Captain Weaver's ship.

Report from the Office of the Triumvirate

The Mistone Alliance Office of the Triumvirate has passed Emergency Resolution #33. Resolution #33 calls for immediate report of reserve troops to the central command and increased guards in all major cities. #33 also prohibits any travels via the Fort Velensk Dock and place the headquarter on war time alert.

Ministry of War

In compliance with ER #33, the Ministry of War has called upon all reserve troops to active duty and request the formation of location milita in all towns and cities. The Ministry has also placed request for new weapons and armors from the local crafters.ÂIt is unclear when next will Blood's force strike.

[Milo]

Ministry of War

The collection effort is going exceptionally well. The arms and armors donated so far will aid in improving the soldier's combat abilities greatly; however, we still have a sizable gap between the current stocks and the goal.ÂBlood's force has struck again at Fort Velensk, but a group of valiant heroes was able to put a stop to the attacks. Combat reports are still being evaluated and pending analysis.

Ministry of Justice

Due to the resources shortage, non-essenial personnels are being transfered to other ministries. Trials for petty crimes has been suspended. All proceedings are being processed according to the War Time Special Article 45. Side note is that a halfing named Taislin Burrik was arrested for disruption of war effort. Specifically, the stealing of public goods donated to the war effort. He has served his sentence and released under stricter survillance.

Ministry of Magic

Large amount of spell compoents are still needed. Extra effort will be put into collecting those in preparation for another invasion

Ministry of Commonwealth

The donations in terms of gold pieces are going surprisingly well, although the stock of healing potions are still low. More effort is being put on collection those.

Ministry of Intelligence

All reports are pending analysis.

Office of the Triumvirate

No new resolution is being proposed and voted on at this time

[Milo]

Office of Triumvirate

The Office of the Triumvirate, with approval of Queen Allurial, has passed and now enacting Emergency Resolution #34. ER #34 requires all registered Mistone guilds and organizationsÂto transfer 2/3 of their inventory or possessions to the Mistone Alliance. This also applies to any city or town councilmen and mayors. ER #34 also raised the goal for collections of items by 1/2 and gold pieces to 1,500,000. ER #34 was proposed because of the fall of Roldem to the Bloodstone's forces. The loss of an valuble ally and stragtic position requires build ups ofÂtimely responses that is not possible with the current fundings. This Executive Directive is mandatory, any guilds, organizations, and individuals, if found evading the collection, can and will be tried in the Mistone Court for disruption of war effort, tax evasion, and war crimes. The guild, organizations, and individuals that qualifies must contact the Mistone Alliance to schedule an collection date. The votes are 3-0. [PM Milo]

Ministry of War

The collection of arms and armors is still underway. Due to the loss of the Kingdom of Roldem, the goal of the collection has been raised by 50%Â. All reserve troops are now active and deployed around Mistone. Any attempts at retaking Roldem are still under evaluations.

Ministry of Intelligence

The Special Operations Corps equipments are still being collected, and it will be much more efficent if the collection goal is reached. The prelimary intelligence is that the Blood forces have not been sighted around Mistone after the fall of Roldem, but precautionary measures still needs to be taken to ensure the safety of Mistone. Also, after receving inital report on Roldem, the evaluation is that the retaking of the Roldem islands are impossible without a full-scale war that will cost Mistone greatly. Other attempts are being considered.

[Milo]

Office of the Triumvirate

Emergency Resolution #35 proposed by the Ministry of War is being considered at this time. ER #35, if passed, will require all houses of noble status on Mistone to transfer at least one-half of their house guards under the Ministry of War's command at request. Voting on this proposal will commence in a few days.
