The People Act...
Two weeks will pass, and all Missions have been completed, for better or worse. The clan's demographics will be updated. Give a general strategy for this idle time, allocation of bevy units, encouraging certain factions, patrolling, whatever you think would be appropriate.

Layleth would attempt to foster trust in the Battleborn among the other two clans by basically spending as much time as possible with them, having herself and her bevy take meals together with them, train with them, go hunting with them, inviting them to prayer sessions, etc.

Nix would spend his days, as usual, amongst the warriors, ensuring the perimeters of the clan were well guarded, and the men active and training.  On his more leisurely days, he would often be seen amongst the godi, conversing in matters of the gods and supernatural such as he had never done in days past.

Varin keeps his bevies assigned the same way they were before.

He relaxes and enjoys his new position, his well deserved position, of leadership.

Tyra was often seen aside from Layleth in those weeks-not opposing her aims, but not exactly working toward the same goals. She spent most of the time trying to encouraging membership in, and forging bonds between Truthseekers and Wanderers-it was clear to her that the Battleborn, more numerous and ready for violence, had to have a counterweight. They had grown arrogant and over-proud, she was often heard to say. To her Battleborn detractors, she would often state a hammer swings best when it's well balanced. Only by hanging together, she cautioned, could they keep them from imposing their wills entire on the weaker, smaller clans. She had no shame in playing up her own recent achievement-piercing the wind wall, becoming one with the Spirit Boar, and helping to drive away a foreign Godly presence. She would often point this out as proof-that it was not only the Battleborn who could fight, or were favored by the Gods in war...

Unsurprisingly, most of her nightime stories in this time tended to venerate Truthseekers and Wanders (and a few noble Battleborn), while shaming bandits, tyrants, and bullies. A clearer message, could not be sent.

Moreau spent his time walking among the people discussing with them the maters of late. The appearance and trials of the new gods brought forth many questions, and Moreau was there to answer them. Our gods had not abandoned us, and the new gods of this land will accept us in time. Furthermore, the people keep an eye out for other strange going ons and instructed them to send for him if strange occurrences began.

Moreau would often take a few hours s to meditate and align himself with the natural world in order to better understand the spirits and gods. He would walk in the forests and feilds, with his notebook sketching and taking notes on the flora and fauna of this land. Equally as often he would walk along the beach and swim in the ocean, observing the wildlife there as well. He took special interest in any unusual or seemingly magical creatures.

Ara immediately begins gathering people for a diplomatic envoy fully disclosing that on some kind of expedition several people have been captured and a diplomatic envoy must be sent.

The Ring Assembles...

The Masters assemble for the second meeting of the ring. The enigmatic Milo Kaliss, Greater Khan, has not shown himself, nor spoke to anyone but his closest advisers for the two weeks since the first meeting, not even his Lesser Khan. For the first time, though, the ring is graced with his presence.

The derisive comments regarding his age might have been exaggerated, but he is indeed young, perhaps 15. It doesn't help that his lean frame dwarfs him standing beside his mountainous guards. What's more, it's seem he has devised a very... unique regalia for this meeting. He wears an unsubtle amalgamation of the three previous Khan's traditional regalia, horns of an ox clash with the white, petrified snake circlets adorning his head. He makes a show to toss an arrowhead on the table before him, then he stomps his oversized staff three times.

The combination of rituals is bewildering, even comedic. But his face is etched stone, hard with fatigue but unmoving.

GREATER KHAN, Milo Kaliss: “I have heard all of your contributions, and I’ve come to this decision regarding the issues: We will not be sacrificing any weapons for the time being, though I allow the Master of Mystics access to a modest amount of cattle and craft to be sacrificed as necessary, if necessary. We have remained here, doubling our efforts in seeking more food. The Master of Forage has directed these efforts admirably, but the time for mobility is at hand. Finally, we will allow a sacrifice to be made in Cauda’s name. I reserve a fair portion of cattle and sheep to these ends for the Master of Mystics to sacrifice as necessary, if necessary."

The guards and bevys shuffle ever so subtly. This is old news, of course, but it seems the Khan is sticking to his script.

"The meeting shall commence!" Three more strikes, and the Ring move to their seats.

"Before I bring to you the major concerns, I'd wish any reports or petitions to be laid out now." His guards delicately disassemble his regalia as the Khan looks around the room, staring intensely at each Master.
