High Chief Simriq
Actions
[Faith] Convert HC 86.1 from Jalyeong-bo to Frostbinderism(15) The snatching of Ignatix’s temple from Mt. Anar is recieved poorly by the Frostbinder clergy. The Jalyeong-bo worshippers must be driven out, and the Acolytes are warned that if they resist, they shall be purged violently from New Bhule.
[Diplomacy] Stabilize the Cays (FAIL)
[Faith]Aid the Ringing of the Chimes Fellow Furnace League member Amham has declared a bold new initiative to end the Long Winter: the blowing of the Spirit Chimes from the south. To attempt to aid this maneuver, Frostbinder priests are carrying out work near the tomb of Gxe'dhok, preparing glyphs based on a combination of Frostbinder holy symbols and sigils leaned from the Sycorax.
[Economy] Buyout TP 12.1 for Iron (12) With the iron mines in Dvatla abandoned, New Bhulic merchants are dispatched to try and take control of its products for the purposes of supplementing the forging techniques available in Bhule. Rather than their traditional raiding tactics, however, they purchase the iron with currency, perhaps in hopes of accumulating respect among other nations.
[Economy] Buyout 11.1 for Giant's Silk (12) While merchants in Dvatla attempt to secure a supply of iron, New Bhule also sends people to obtain a more exotic material. The Giant's Silk of Reflas is becoming a desired commodity in New Bhule for making clothes, sails, and other fabric items.

As part of the agreement with the Furcap rebellious group, High Chief Simriq has married Mari Llerhan, the sister of Ambassador Chell Llerhan, and a very distant cousin of the Danderhuf line. All parties appear satisfied with this arrangement, and the union has produced two sons, Tatqret and Ilgah, heirs to the New Bhulic throne.
Although disappointed that Whern and Isknevald chose to side with the gods of Gamle Mater rather than joining Frostbinderism, Priestess Anhah and the other priests of Ignatix are willing to accept their decision and wish them luck, at least for now. Followers of Gamle Mater are treated with respect in New Bhule, if not to the extent that Frostbinders are.
The reluctance of the Jotun in the Cays to assimilate into the New Bhulic nation is frustrating the government. The Cays are being regarded, for the moment, as a hotbed of danger and enemies, not least the Acolytes of Akkha and their Jalyeong-bo followers.
While the Frostbinder immigrants to Whern suffer from the Whernian racism in their enclaves in Fferharbor, relations between the nations are too critical to risk a major disagreement over such a trivial issue. Thus New Bhule suggests quietly to the Frostbinders found there that if they are unhappy in Whern, they are still considered New Bhulic citizens and are free to return to a nation where they will be treated better.
