[Tsenacommacah]

I know this is more than one a week, technically, but then I made the last one early on a Sunday morning as I recall, which is more like the bare, extreme end of last week.

Terrain in Tsenacommacah ranges widely, including jungles, desert and savanna. Daily temperatures are coldest between May and August at roughly 15˚C - 20˚C, or 59°F - 68°F, and warmest between November and February at roughly 25˚C - 31˚C, or 77°F - 88°F.

Naturally, these estimates are only rough and in many places, noticeably the highlands and the deserts, gross differences take place.

[Wolfenium]

Angry mobs are a common sight in rural villages. The targets for these mobs are usually suspected worshippers of Amythyist's gods (considered heretical by Wolfenian townsfolk) or freakish-looking monsters and demons. But ever since the emperor adopted a young fox-girl and gave her the title of Princess, attacks on the latter group have dropped exponentially.

[Greater Albion PLC]

This week His Majesty, King Victor III, was crowned as Emperor of Barrapur as well as his previous title, King of Greater Albion PLC, due the creation of a new colony, Albionic Barrapur PLC. The crowds rejoice in the capitals of both cities, and some hasty constitutional changes are made on both sides of the world, as Albion and Barrapur steady themselves for this new Union. His Majesty has also ordered a new suffix to all official announcements, which you may view now.

Long Live the King-Emperor!
