STAVKA - CHIEFDOM OF ENERGY DEVELOPMENT Saint Andreisburg - Maj Gen. Asya Smola, Chief of Energy Development, has announced that the "Blue Sea Energy Group" based in Danu has been awarded exploration and exploitation rights over the "Danu Gas Field #1" site, 25 nautical miles south-south east of Danu. This is the first phase of exploitation of the Danu Gas Field. Maj Gen. Smola stated: "The Free State will always maintain energy sovereignty especially when we are surrounded by those who oppose us and our way of life. The opening of Danu Gas Field #1 will enhance Dalimbari strategic energy objectives and allow us the ability to sell excess natural gas to willing foreign buyers. Further development of the field will continue to strengthen our energy power." Danu Gas Field #1 is roughly 1,300km3 in size under the sea floor in the Blue Sea, a complex of fields which extend well into the Vostochii-occupied part of the Blue Sea. Danu Gas Field #1 is expected to produce 45×1012 cu ft of natural gas over its production cycle. Col. Vladan Tomich, Chairman of the Blue Sea Energy Group, stated: "We are proud to be part of Dalimbar's energy future, and we are especially proud that as a local energy company, the Free State has chosen to invest in the Blue Sea area. We thank Stavka for allowing us this opportunity to serve the nation in maintaining energy sovereignty." Construction of the site, including offshore platforms and other infrastructure, is expected to start in early Fall of 1424, with extraction operations commencing in Fall 1425. Preliminary work by the STAVKA Working Group on Energy and the Chiefdom of Energy Development have already facilitated a significant portion of pre-development, aiding in the speed in which the Blue Sea Energy Group can begin their important work.

FSTV4 - History of the Pathseekers Episode 4: Meeting the Choden Narrator - A pleasant land was Choden. From the banks of the big river, the forests marched in unbroken ranks. They stretched across the lowlands; they climbed the mountain slopes. Thousands of feet above the valley floor they gave way to tundra, and rocky crests. High over all, the peaks glistened with the eternal glaciers that, in the hot months, fed their waters to the river's flow. In the land of Choden food abounded. Each year, with the fullness of the late springtime, the salmon came up the river. They came in a silver horde, millions of fish; running against the swift waters to reach their ancestral spawning grounds. From this migration the People of Choden took their toll. With great traps they caught such fish as they needed. They dried them, and smoked them; preserving them against the winter's need of food. In the forests wild creatures lived. Caribou, deer, and rabbits, and groundhogs. On the mountain slopes the hoary marmots had their homes. In the high peaks the mountain goats fed on the alpine meadows. Grouse flew in the lowlands; ducks and geese had their homes on the lakes. Big grouse - the blue ones, and the ptarmigan whose coat is white in winter - dwelt in the lands of the high peaks. And in the creeks the trout swarmed. Truly a pleasant land where food abounded. Each summer, when the seasons came, the wild berries ripened. Of their abundance the People took for their winter stores. Roots grew in the forests. On the low lands wild carrots could be gathered. Other roots provided medicine to cleanse the body; to heal diseases. Still others furnished long supple threads which with the people sewed their baskets. The skins of the wild animals provided clothing and blankets. From the skins of deer, and caribou, carefully dressed, they made fine buckskin for leggings and coats and robes. Fishers and martens, mink and weasels gave their glossy furs against the winter need. So warm clothing and soft blankets were made under which the People enjoyed their sleep. It was a good land, and a pleasant land: and land where the Sun God gave lavishly to his People of Choden. The Pathseekers, the Dalimbari, reached this land and began to learn the land. We explored deeper and deeper into the lands, trading with the sun-worshipers. Finding knowledge abound, and safety from the harsh sea.

RWC5 - Day Three What a wild tournament. H&J reminded us that they did win RWC1 by beating the host nation, Overthinkers. Avadonialis and Rivalfiume came down to the wire on who would win. Larxia is starting to find their legs, beating Varanius. United Adaikes, probably the strongest Polarii team after Dalimbar, just absolutely smoked Nieubasria. Fujai also obliteratted Zhiznovsk, a testament to their domestic rugby development. Sekiya got the job done of beating New Velka. Ryxtylopia proved that they weren't a one-hit wonder by narrowly beating Saint Mark. Peourouin had a good clean afternoon against Nouveauterra. Arifiyyah pushed Einherfell lower in the rankings. Dalimbar quickly shaked off our previous loss to hit Min-Su hard. Ostronia went even harder against their opponent, Nalibia, and can boast of having the greatest differential in any match in RWC history by besting their opponents by 32 points (the previous high score was Sekiya beating Ionia on Day 3 of RWC4 by 31 points). Finally, Mygrdiyah continues to impress with their rise and there may be a few few gents in the Department who are putting bets on Mygrdiyah.
