Late in the evening word starts to spread both up and down the Fiore river of a daring attack by Eosphora troops on one of the southern elements of the Aequorian blockades. While previous heavy attempts to break the blockade had centred further north, this one is said to have been a short, sharp action timed to catch their target, one of the d'Armaz ships supporting the Royal Navy, at dusk whne the lookouts would have the hardest time seeing. Reports from those that made it out say that the vastly outnumbered defenders fought bravely but were quickly overwhelmed by vast numbers of professional troops, leaving the outcome in no doubt.

Does this strike further downriver mark a change in the tactics of Eosphora?
Are they simply tired of dying in droves at the foot of Duke Augustin and his defences up river?
What happened to the Tribune of the Argent Legion who boarded the ship shortly before the attack?
Just how pissed off is Adriono going to be at the loss of a ship?
What price is the self-proclaimed Queen going to extract for the -two- d'Armaz captains rumoured taken?

Only time will tell.
