It has been calculated that virtually no Freemen commanders survived the war, with the exception of their leaders, Lord Benitgal and his Admiral, Rakillian. A group of Imperial allies, currently in Port Ocelot, have volunteered to seek them out and bring them to justice.

In Catalania, Milar of Catalania has founded the Society Arcane with eight other prominent wizards.

Goods being imported to that city are still taxable. A new index of taxes has been formulated, however, using the prevalence of the imported goods on the local market as a basis for higher taxes.

After the Company of the Three Stars recently excluded Pallassi from it's trading routes, the Duke of the city has been implementing measures to further the safety in his region.
