The weekend past saw both the Kami and the Karavan harden their respective positions in the struggle for hearts and minds on Atys, as both sides announced huge rallies to be attended by as many of their supporters as possible. In reality these turned out to be two of the best attended events ever in the Saga as hundreds of players arrived from all over Atys to hear what their faction leaders had to say about the coming War.

When they arrived, they were greeted with a surprise on both days, as the importance of the occasions meant that in support of the Karavan both King Yrkanis of the Matis and Governor Still Wyler of the Tryker race appeared in person. The next day, the Kami conference saw the appearance of no less a person than the emperor of the Fyros, Dexton accompanied by Grand Sage Mabreka of the Zorai peoples. Loud and long did the assembled Homins cheer their leaders whilst marvelling at their unique attire and potent weapons.

After the officials finished their rousing speeches, it was time for the guild Leaders of Atys to have their say. Much lore was displayed and great wisdom shown as the majority of the guilds on both sides reluctantly decided the inevitability of the coming war and reiterated their support for either Kami or Karavan. A very few lone guilds opted to stay neutral and it will be interesting to follow their position in the coming days of strife.
Finally, the floor in both meetings was opened to allow the Homins of either persuasion to speak at the assembly that matched their allegiance and faith. With sadness and determination the main conclusion was that Hominkind should follow their leaders and Jena or Ma-duk into the coming struggle. All Atys is poised for war - what will happen now?

Meanwhile the supporters of the Kami and the Karavan have not been idle, and have produced these affirmations of faith for their Homins:

It seems as if the differences of faith and ethos are now irreconcilable, and it behoves homins to hold fast to the faith they so clearly hold testament to whilst preparing themselves for the events that are poised to unfold over the next few weeks.

The struggle for Atys - are you ready for the fray?
