In the wake of Ostia's destruction, monsters and undead now roam the countryside, terrorizing the populous of the Lycian League. Normally the League would turn to its leader, Ostia in times of such hardship, but with the cornerstone of the Lycia gone, the federation's unified government lies in shambles. With the loose ties of confederacy shattered, every Marquess finds themselves only concerned with their own safety.
As a result of this weakened government, bandits have begun to prey on the Lycian populous, finding themselves only impeded when they stray to close to major cities. Laus, growing ever more frustrated by the continual loss of territory and influence, has begun to rally its forces in response, offering commissions to any knight willing to fight for their cause. This rapid rise to supremacy has begun to spread murmurs of discontent among the other Marquesses, particularly Marquess Ashby of Santaruz, but Marquess Revelin cares little, citing his concern for the continuing survival of Lycia.
Due to reports of movement along the Etrurian border, Marquess Revelin has begun pushing for a stronger alliance, under his leadership, between the territories, citing Ostia as a tragedy that "shall not happen again".
