Battle at Angenmar Paven

Oron 40, Salgan 10, Adonsik 40 Vylor Cledman VI

As tensions between Lord Chancellor Rubanya Cledman and other members of the Imperial Council appear to be rising, the response to the Lord Chancellor's decree granting control of Imperial Army garrisons to local Ulors has been chaotic and has led to bloodshed in more than one province.

Imperial Army troops from two different Verronese provinces are reported to be fighting each other in the town of Angenmar Paven, capital of Salan Kajakan Folon.

Rumors indicate well over a hundred soldiers lost in the fighting which centered around the palace of Ulor Tremalkan of Kajakan Folon. According to some sources, the soldiers were sent by Ulor Kortelan of Salan Kajakan Tros to remove Tremalkan from power, allegedly on orders from Lord Chancellor Rubanya.

It is said that Ulor Kortelan violently took control of the Imperial Army garrison in his province on orders from the Lord Chancellor, but that Ulor Tremalkan refused a similar order and for that reason the Lord Chancellor instructed Ulor Kortelan to remove him from power.

Other sources insist that Ulor Tremalkan did assume control of the Imperial Army garrison in his province as instructed by the Lord Chancellor.

It is further reported that Ulor Ziyan of Salan Kajakan Yost has refused the Lord Chancellor's order to take control of the garrison in his province. There is no indication that any action has been taken against him.

Other rumors indicate that soldiers were seen loading on navy transports in Yishil, but it is not clear what their destination is. Some speculate that they are headed to Verronia to remove Ulor Ziyan from power or Angenmar Paven to join the battle there. Still other rumors indicate that they may be bound for Zekran.
