IMPERIAL AND STORMCLOAK AMBASSADORS EXPELLED
---------------
After a day of bickering, the ambassadors sent by Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak and General Tullius have been expelled from Understone Keep, the City of Stone, and the Kingdom of the Reach and it's territory. The Court has sent with them a message regarding Imperial and Stormcloak influence within the Reach and Whiterun, which of no doubt will be an offense to Jarl Ulfric and General Tullius.
---------------
RESULTS OF ORC MEETING
---------------
The meeting between the Orsimer tribe of Dushnikh Yal and the Kingdom of the Reach has resulted in a major friendship between the Orsimer and the Kingdom. The document issued between the two governments shall be posted, with no information withheld, for every citizen of the Kingdom to read. Chief Burguk of the Dushnikh Yal Orsimer welcomed the thought of a meeting with open arms, stating "It is time that the Orsimer of Dushnikh Yal opened the doors to their civilization, just like it is time for the Kingdom of the Reach to recognize our presence and independence".
---------------
MARRIAGE BETWEEN THE KINGDOM OF THE REACH AND THE KINGDOM OF WHITERUN
---------------
Today, in the early hours of the morning, the marriage between Jarl Halftand and Eranela of the Kingdom of Whiterun were committed in the eyes of Mara. This marriage marks an excellent progression towards stability within the Kingdom of the Reach. The Jarl of Whiterun, Ragnar Thorn-Beard, gave his blessing in what appeared to be a tone of relief. The marriage solidifies an alliance with the Kingdom of Whiterun and the future reign of Jarl Halftand over the Kingdom of Whiterun.
---------------
THALMOR DEBATE AND ULTIMATUM
---------------
With the debate still occuring between international leaders, most favor the Kingdom of the Reach against the Aldmeri Dominion. Currently, the Aldmeri Dominion demands the deposition of Jarl Halftand in favor of a person with Imperial beliefs. While no demands are being made against the Dominion, the leaders who favor the Kingdom of the Reach have put forth requests for treaties as a precaution of a Thalmor invasion. The leaders that favor the Kingdom are currently King Shadow-Tail of Argonia, Queen Faeren Redoran of Morrowind, High King Ra'taq of Hammerfell, and Jarl Ragnar Thorn-Beard of the Kingdom of Whiterun. The leaders that favor the Aldmeri Dominion are currently Queen Arannelya of the Aldmeri Dominion, Mane Ka' Rad of Anequina, and Mane R 'Tuc of Pelletine. The current neutral leaders are Emperor Titus Mede II of the Mede Empire and Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak of the Kingdom of Skyrim.

THALMOR AMBASSADORS
----------------
As with the Imperial and Stormcloak ambassadors, the Aldmeri Dominion has sent Thalmor ambassadors to the City of Stone. However, the Court has refused the entrance of the Thalmor in any way, sparking a heated debate among international leaders. The debate includes a supposed breaking of the White-Gold Concordat created at the end of the Great War between the Dominion and the Empire. One party suggests that the Kingdom of the Reach breaks the treaty by disallowing any Thalmor influence within the kingdom, while the other party defends the Reach, and for that matter Whiterun, as the Kingdoms were not included in the treaty. This debate holds the attention of most of the international leaders, including the King of Argonia and House Redoran of Morrowind, both of which support the Reach and Whiterun in it's defense.
----------------
ORC MEETING
----------------
As previously released, the Chief of the Orsimer stronghold Dushnikh Yal has agreed to the meeting between the Kingdom of the Reach and the stronghold of Dushnikh Yal. The meeting shall be held at the Reachwind Eyrie tomorrow at noon sharp. General Fire-Bear, Thane Strong-Arm, and myself shall attend the meeting to show our thoughtfulness to the idea. The results of the meeting shall be given when appropriate.

VAMPIRE ATTACK IN THE CITY OF STONE
----------------
Tragedy struck the City of Stone today in the marketplace, when a group of five vampires attacked citizens of Markarth. Two citizens, a woman named Margret and a man named Eltrys, were murdered by these monsters and three more citizens were injured. The injured citizens wish to remain anonymous. The guard, as well as the soldiers, put the group of vampires down before they could harm anymore civilians and advance onto the Court itself. Information regarding this attack shall be released once available.
----------------
Message from Whiterun
----------------
Today, at around six in the afternoon, a woman from Whiterun arrived in the Court bearing a message for the Jarl. The message, requested by the Jarl to not be distributed, details a request for a Noble marriage between the woman, the only heir to the throne of Whiterun and Jarl Halftand. The Jarl of Whiterun, Ragnar Thorn-Beard, included in his message the woman, of which is identified by the name Eranela, is Jarl Ragnar's cousin and only surviving family member. His concern is that once he passes on, she will inherit his throne and because of her lack in political skill, he wishes for Jarl Halftand to marry Eranela in order for Whiterun to have a competent leader. This marriage would mean that the Kingdom of Whiterun would be annexed by the Kingdom of the Reach, thus doubling the size of the current kingdom. Jarl Halftand issued his decision on the subject, being to marry Eranela and aid a fellow Jarl and Nord. Details of the marriage shall be released once available.
