While Angelica has claimed a throne, for the most part, each town makes its own rules. There are several edicts that have come down from Liwich Castle however: no slavery of any kind and a small tax to be paid to the castle quarterly. [[Hurm]] and Wymere, the largest towns, are in agreement with Angelica's rule, while several smaller outposts and a good deal of the offshore pirate bases are holding out against her. But with Monsignor Morgensen of Hurm and Lady Edaith Ambersson of Wymere supporting her, their protest means little, and it's only a matter of time before they are <span class="ITALIC">encouraged</span> to get in step. | |||
Currently, Liwich is at war with Sedera. This actually predates Angelica, but has become an official conflict since she created the throne. The war began to brew from repeated pirate raids on the port in [[Audira]] by several Hurm-based ships. Audiria built and deployed three naval ballista ships to counteract the piracy (at great cost, given the lack of suitable wood in their kingdom). One of these gun ships killed the privateer schooner <span class="ITALIC">Nimblewind</span>, and two of the crewmembers on board were the youngest sons of Lady Edaith Ambersson. Her grief and anger were such that war was declared on the entire Drifting Kingdom; however, even now, this war exists more for those on the water than those on land. In Rondora Lake, the smaller villages and family groups still trade with the tea-colored nomads that ply wares along the northern desert border, albeit clandestinely. | Currently, Liwich is at war with Sedera.
