GENASI KINGDOMS

• have now taken over TWIN FALLS, WARRENSTONE, DRACOSTELLUM, GIMLOTH and BOLUDO (first attacked by X-Cultists who ransaced the Cathedral To Boldrei and stole the ROD OF RESURRECTION, THEN Cloudscape invaded)
• Left token garrisons in these cities as they retreated to protect their own cities from invading forces from the Far Realm and armies of the newly revealed CABAL OF CTHULHU

• now allies with WINGPERCH and GIMLOTH
• Trying to rebuild after losing many lives and forces to Cloudscape and Fugore, all but Wingperch on high alert from Star Spawn from the desert and UNDEAD from the Wastelands, barely enough to troops to protect their own cities

CURRENT MASSIVE BATTLES

• PALMPOINT - UPDATE - Fugore and Oreton forces have retreated, Ushani left for NEW SHI, on their own, most are packing up to flee to BRIGHTSHELL harbor, one of the last safe and FREE Bastians in Oroccid (since its a walled city, safe from the UNDEAD and STAR SPAWN)
• BRIGHTSHELL HARBOR - Moderately okay after the Genasi War, but full of REFUGEES (think Ba Sing Se) and all troops working to repel UNDEAD from Wastelands being sent in by X-CULT
• ETERNAL CURRENT MONASTERY - a ruin currently, all having FLED to Brightshell harbor
• GIMLOTH Currently Under MARTIAL LAW under control by Fire Giants and Other Massive Creatures from Elemental Plane of FIRE, the few that remain of the dwarves are shoring up defenses against the undead, the enemy Garrison offering little help

• CHALINOS- water blockade by Aboleth, daily assault by Dragons from Magia, Protection holds still holding, but people are frightened and supplies are starting to get scarce, especially with all the refugees from Magiault
• THINDRILINE - last Bastian of Freedom and Security in lower Domunz
• NEW SHI - blocked at sea by Aboleth's, handling LOTS of refugees, but holding strong, despite increasing infernal presence in area around the city
• ZYN and UNDERDARK - currently under attack by Cult of Lolth terror groups, bombing, cave collapses, and Dryder/Spider/Wurm attacks, travel in the area very dangerous
• MIRAXALIM - last Free Bastian of security in NORTH of Domunz, thousands of Obreriault refugees from all the islands, holding off daily scouting assaults from Mind Flayers from Obreriault Island and their strongholds across the island chains
• (also see "The Trap" section below for more details)

JUDAI'ARUK'S NEW PLAN

COMPLETED PARTS

• JUDAI'ARUK Taking Control of the Cabal of Cthulhu
• T'nin defects to Judai'aruk, having regained his memories, bringing the Vedalken the bottle of LUKAS HELVIIREN, who T'nin overheard speaking about his master, the Djinn Genie Keth. They torture Lukas and get the location of Keth, and they head to EXPA to demand wishes from her, bringing the might of the Cabal alongside them.
• Next he finds the mortat remains of DREW SCROLL, intent on raising him from the dead using the ROD OF RESURRECTION stolen by the X-CULTISTS from the Cathedral to Boldrei in BOLUDO, so he can cast the MASS RAISE DEAD spell he created over 100 years ago
• Next, he sets RENARD to find Eldath and STEAL THE CARAFE, fulfilling the VISION
• At first Judai'aruk wishes for Cthulu to be awoken and freed, but not even Keth has that power. Next, he wishes for all the recombined ORRERY of the WANDERER, which she reluctantly grants him, massively weakening herself in order to save LUKAS's life. The half drow escapes, but not before he sees Judai'aruk kill Keth in her weakened state, having used so much power to gather and reconstitute the remaining pieces of the Orerry.
• Stole the KRAKEN SKULL in front of the YAW SHIP
• Next he has GAULDENAL head to GIMLOTH to kidnap Myrra (Speer member for the ritual), now has both SAPHIELLE and Myrra for the ritual, may use one of them as bargaining chip
• Next, he sends the ABISHAI to Magiault to Steal the POWER STONE (slowed by lack of Mak'Ti's eye) - if Group gets it, he'll blackmail them with BORD's FATHER/ family - they STEAL other 2 STONES to see if they will work, Judai'aruk after two weeks is confident he has worked out a variation of the ritual using these stones
• Without Bord or his child, Judai'aruk confident he can either blackmail Bord with his kidnapped family members who he just returned from the Elemental Plane of Air with, or just sacrifice Bord's father, ALSO a Bard
• Judai'aruk enhancing missing pieces of ritual components with Shards of Living Gate T'nin STOLE from Da'ath at the Gimloth house
• He has given the signal for "The trap" to keep Forces of Terus, including SPEER, at bay

STILL TO DO

• Currently, he is in Obreriault to collect the parasite from the Mind Flayers, the last step needed for his ritual to become an ELDRITCH LITCH to perform the ceremony Eldritch-lich - there until LUCOM 20th
• After the ritual, Judai'aruk is heading to LAKE URDA for THE AWAKENING, feeling confident he will finally be ready, and having already summoned hordes of warriors there to protect it already, including the Sahuagin
• T'NIN can decide during the battle/ritual whether to help his old allies or not
• JUDAI'ARUK does not realize it is ALL A HOAX to keep people distracted so the GREAT OLD ONE can work on warping the MIND of BORD

THE TRAP TO KEEP FORCES OF TERUS AT BAY

• Mind Flayers invade DOMUNZ, with World Brain touching down on Obreriault with main assault force (keep Magiault, Miraxilim and Obreriault at bay)
• Aboleth forces invades the Lancu Sea, attacking the smaller islands while Main Force attacks Chalinos
• Tiamat sends dragons daily to harass Tufenes from Magia, including using the portal to Abyss near CHALINOS to attack Tufunes (keep Chalinos and Thindriline at bay)
• Malar's Hunters attack Eldath once more joined by hired help from Dark Ember Monastery
• Undead Armies rise up in the WASTELANDS, heading for populace centers already decimated by SECOND ELEMENTAL WARS
• Eldritch Horrors reveal themselves from their gathering points in the Nalied Desert, striking at Llegosert, Palm Point, and Nomadic Tribes
