Council Affairs of Note

The Redoran Council has unanimously elected Ralos Venim, son of Bolvyn Venim, to lead the reconstruction of Ald-ruhn. Financed by generous donations from Redoran nobles, the Councilors themselves, and the Tribunal Temple, Velothi and Orcish laborers are being hired, and many seasoned warriors brought to Ald-ruhn to help in the restoration of the clanstead.
Master Lord Hlaren Ramoran, having no holdings in the West Gash, his domain, has pushed for the foundation of a town named Maltir Bal. However, the Redoran Council, deeming the Ald-ruhn issue to be more pressing, has decided to postpone acquiring the deed for the construction of Maltir Bal. The Ramoran Clan still holds the rights for the construction however, as it is their land.
Briras Indarys is being considered as Chief Watchman of the western Ashlands. His valiant efforts to save the civilians of Ald-ruhn from the Daedra are commendable and his estate of Bal Isra had provided a sanctuary for refugees. The Council has yet to vote on the matter.
Master Lord Garisa Llethri, who founded the town of Shishi five years ago, is pushing for a formal alliance with the Urshilaku Tribe. The tribe has become steady seasonal trading partners with the Redoran of Shishi, but is hesitant to enter in a formal, and binding alliance. The Redoran Council has yet to announce their decision as to whether to seek an alliance or not.
The ancient Dunmer strongholds of Andasreth and Berandas are to be cleared out. The Redoran Council has announced that a general mustering of militia and warriors in the Gashlands will take place in a month to flush out the bandits and criminals hiding in the two strongholds. Four Redoran warriors had been slain there and the Council has unanimously declared their punitive war on the bandits.
Caldera, originally part of the Sarethi Clan?s territory, has been held as an Imperial chartered town and mine. The Redoran Council has informed Duke Vedam Dren of its intention to present their plea to the Grand Council. Normally this would not go overly well, however, with the fall of Ald-ruhn and the Redoran saving Vvardenfell from an Oblivion invasion, the Grand Councilors are considering the Redoran demand.

Council Affairs of Note

During King Hlaalu Helseth?s civil war, the Hlaalu and Dres had fought the Indoril. The Hlaalu Council of Vvardenfell has announced its intention to have a part of the Indoril war-indemnities, as seasoned Hlaalu warriors from Vvardenfell had been sent to the eastern Deshaan Plains during the brief but bloody civil war.
The so-called Massacre of Thieves killed off all known members of the underground Thieves Guild in Balmora, Vivec City, and Sadrith Mora. Ald-ruhn?s was caught in the Oblivion invasion. Great House Hlaalu maintains that there was no knowledge of an impending attack, however it is obvious that an outlander criminal syndicate would face extreme competition from the native Camonna Tong. The Council declines to reveal any of the intelligence gathered on the killings but it seems that thugs killed all of the Guild-thieves they could find and then escaped or bribed nobles or guards to be set free.
There has been discussion by the Hlaalu Council for the construction of a new town near the Shurdan-Raplay Pass. A Nothryon clansman has stepped forward as a potential founder, however he has little monetary backing. The Council awaits a suitable financer before presenting their holding-plea to Duke Vedam Dren.
Aid for Ald-ruhn had been proposed to by Master Crassius Curio, however it is still hotly debated as Master Yngling Half-Troll, Mistress Nevena Ules, and Mistress Velanda Omani object. As of now the debate is at a stalemate and it seems no aid from Hlaalu will find its way to the Redoran any time soon.
Diplomats from Black Marsh and Elsweyr have asked Great House Hlaalu to provide their freed slaves passage back to their home provinces. As Great House Hlaalu is not a great slaving House, it has been decided that passage will be offered, however it seems it will be at a cost. This means many of the workers will be forced to stay on Vvardenfell as tenant farmers for some time.

Council Actions

The Telvanni Council had sent a band of Telvanni to aid the Redoran at Ald-ruhn during the Oblivion Crisis. Though Ald-ruhn had fallen, Telvanni had been able to help the Ghostgate Temple garrison defeat what remained of the Daedric army. The Telvanni Council has sent ambassadors to Great House Redoran, expecting that their agreement to prevent a Mages Guild monopoly will be honored.
The so-called Massacre of Thieves killed off all known members of the underground Thieves Guild in Balmora, Vivec City, and Sadrith Mora. Ald-ruhn?s was caught in the Oblivion invasion. The Telvanni Council maintains that gangsters perpetrated the raid on Dirty Muriel?s Cornerclub, and they had left no trace. The large tavern is now closed off by the Telvanni guards of Sadrith Mora.
With Master Gothren dead, Tel Aruhn had begun to decline. With the official end of the slave trade, the city was close to ruin. However the Telvanni Council has proclaimed Tel-Aruhn to now be a mercenary capital for the Telvanni. This sudden shift to militant aims is alarming, however the Telvanni have assured the Grand Council that it is simply a more centralized form of their large hireling-conscription and a way to bring Tel-Aruhn out of economic decline.
An alliance with the Ashlanders has been considered by the Telvanni Council, which plans to send envoys to the Erabenimsun and Zainab tribes. Past attempts at a solid alliance have fallen short, however the respective Ashkhans have shown interest in an alliance in case of war.
Recent rumors of Telvanni not abiding by King Helseth?s abolishment of slavery have arisen. The Telvanni Council of Vvardenfell declares that it has done all that it can within its traditional bounds to prevent slave trading. However, the Council warns that they cannot and will not effectively stop underground slave trading.
The Telvanni Council has decided to allow the settlement of Indoril refugees on Azuras Coast. Tel Branora, Odirniran, and Mawia now all have small Indoril populations. The main group of refugees however, are now in Vivec City or Molag Mar.

So you just made the player from morrowind a dunmer councilor for Hlaalu and Telvanni? That's a good way to get around it.

I actually like these more than the originals.

yeah, that way it works out, there is progression and it seems like the Houses did something in 6 years

and yeah, i go into more detail about politics than the originals... plus, in recent times lots of things happening, so normally complacent Councils would be a lot more active. Hlaalu have a little less corruption in the people, Bolvyn Venim no longer dominating the other councilors, and now Gothren's gone, Aryon is gonna get the Telvanni to actually do stuff... sometimes...

but its a good basic explanation of things to come, there are tensions growing and the Houses are getting ready

[blackbird]

Unfortunately I have some comments on which we can discuss:

Yngling Half-troll is still a member of House Hlaalu. I thought he wasn't popular and nobody cared when he was killed.
Mw Dialogue:
Yngling Half-Troll is a foreigner like me, but he simply doesn't understand the Dunmer like I do. If you were to dispose of him, the other councilors would not be upset. If you kill any of the rest of us, of course, it is a different story. He lives in Yngling Manor in the St. Olms Canton.

Perhaps aryon is different then I thought, but why should the telvanni send some aid to Ald'Ruhn? I thought they were only interested in their own villages. Nobody liked the telvanni in MW and vice versa.
I thought that house telvanni didn't abolish slave trade or that they hold as an tradition to have slaves.

It's an useful text, btw and it shows indeed some progress.

[KuKulzA]

well, my thoughts is that Yngling Half-troll is the reason for the Sheogorad nord cooperation with the Hlaalu. Afterall, Yngling was a Nord from Skyrim, he understand Nords, and he knows that Hlaalu with all their wealth could fall prey to Nordic raiders, better to pay the Nords and befriend them so they will restrict their raiding to Telvanni and Redoran coasts right?
but he'll die, oh, don't worry... just he's not dead YET

The Telvanni are said to have been around closing Oblivion gates... remember Aryon is a progressive and aggressive Telvanni leader, unlike how Gothren was... and Gothren had been the archmagister since... since as far as most can remember... remember, the Telvanni are growing more involved in others affairs, at least thats what Aryon wants to do

Yes, Telvanni still trade slaves, however, King Helseth officially abolished slavery... and since the Dres are no longer slave-raiding, that means that Indoril will have fewer slaves to bring up from the Dres, and the Telvanni will also. There is still underground slave-trade, but that the Telvanni Council officially says that the slaves were freed and that by tradition and practicality it will be near impossible fo them to shut down the underground slave market

[blackbird]

Ok, that remind that house dres sold slaves in TR en the offical lore (with Tear as tradepoint).
I can see your point of view, but there will be still a black slave market, right? I think some telvanni are to old to adapt some changes.
I can see some things about the mainquest.0

yea, I mean, Neloth sure isn't gonna give up his slaves, many will and many won't...
but just remember, most Telvanni aren't the rich powerful wizards in shroomholds... they are young aggressive magicians trying to carve out their future in their House... and so they don't have slaves usually...

plus Telvanni use slaves as servants or test-subjects... not usually big farm-labor unlike Indoril and Dres...
Hlaalu TEND not to use too much slavery, but when they acquired the fertile Ascadian isles, they conveniently changed their morals and ethics... though once Helseth abolished slavery they once again changed that policy
