Now that the issue of the exchange of hostages and the treaty signed the time has come to make our dispositions for the next year. The first issue is what to do now with the British invaders, their homelands are in chaos but each has more than enough resources to threaten us all. The Linnui have been quiet despite the rejection of the Treaty of the Giant's Ring and they have not responded to the theft of the O'Dalaigh caravan. I have reached an understanding with the Accadons regarding my own prisoners but there's no mistake that the South is vulnerable to further assault. My second concern is the worth of Lord Cuchulainn. He appears loyal enough to the cause of Irish liberty but his actions are erratic and his agenda remains his own.
