Cyran recognition of Darguun Independence

Diplomatic action

Nymm 8th, 988YK

Worried about the political embarrassment of Breland recognizing Valenar as a sovereign state Cyre recognizes Darguun in order to secure goblinoid mercenaries.


Just as Breland was forced to address its lost Darguun mercenaries, Cyre now cast about for additional troops. Even as warforged warriors continued to pour out of Eston Cannith's forges, the generals knew they needed more, particularly if the Valenar shift signaled a new aggressiveness on Breland's part.   In a scheme no doubt motivated by revenge, Cyran negotiators were ordered to secure goblinoid fighters from House Deneith. Lhesh Haruuc drove a hard bargain—he, like the elves, wanted national recognition but was mostly unwilling to lower his price. Cyre complained but ultimately paid.
