Rescuing Principium

    After a few months of planning a recon mission into the Seneran Royal Navy's Headquarters in Port Surrey-on-the-Brahms, news finally arrived of their fate. La Camaraderie spies caught wind that the captured crew of the derelict ship, the Principium, was to be executed on the 11th Day of the 9th Month 1275. However, many members of the crew of the Rozenmaiden disappeared on the 4th Day of the 9th Month during the Parade of the Spirits.

    Depending on when the displaced members of the Rozenmaiden crew return, other members of La Camaraderie will be forced to do something, since the literal deadline is coming soon.

    The broad outline of what I expect to be preparing for on this adventure:

    • The Travel Phase
      • Whether or not La Carnalis and some others are forced to move forward to Senera there will be a part of the adventure where the Rozenmaiden will be sailing.
    • The Reconnaissance Phase
      • While La Camaraderie do have operatives on the ground, and have had some of that information related to them, the latest information has not arrived yet
    • The Rescue Phase
      • The players are free to do all kinds of shit here, so we will have to complete the map of the area, and define NPCs that act and react to certain things. However, ultimately, the aim of the Senerans would be to be so convincing in fighting against any interlopers, that the rescued member would be simply accepted into La Camaraderie as a long-term spy on Raibon Island.

    We're return to the Thera at the 7th day of the 9th month, which gives us 8 days to get to Surrey-on-the-Brahms. There are a couple of complications before you get them tho.

    • The Sanerian government is requesting access to the the Town of Hama. Since it's technically a new settlement within the bounds of the Sanerian state, it is within its jurisdiction. It is with precedent, but the issue is that some "missionaries" from the Reformists were also trying to get in. The Hags of Hama had denied their entry into their port, and they were asked to remain in their ship. Along with the Sanerian administrators, they were invoking the Doctrine of the Freedom of Religion which was explicitly listed as a Freedom in the Declaration of Freedoms in the Articles of Confederation to demand access. Antoinette Dubois, acting as the Hags' counsel, filed an injunction to keep them away, arguing that the town is a private commune owned collectively by the Hags of Hama themselves. Although there isn't any present legislation in Sanerian state or Confederate law, there is some precedent where such uncovered cases may cite Silent Age law, so she used Sanerian Silent Age Common Law. A 910 AI law cited that any new undiscovered land can be claimed as private property. She argued that the Town of Hama, being new land not defined within the founding documents of Raibon Island, is undiscovered. She submitted evidence that the Hags as a collective had discovered the land
