The County of [[Mirioth, Amity, and So-Sara]] (or County MASS for short) is a feudal countdom that spans over a large archipelago with five major islands and dozens of smaller islands. Being only a few hundred miles from the equator of Micras, it has a monsoonal, tropical climate, with jungles and mountains in the interior of the islands and beautiful beaches and craggy cliffs on the edges of the islands. Each of the five main islands have a dormant or extinct volcano on it as well, which have not erupted in thousands of years.

With the Yardistani archipelago's history stretching back to antiquity, the modern County of MASS formed only a scant 10 years ago, when the County of Amity and Mirioth annexed the county of So-Sara into its fold. Having been promoted and demoted several times in the feudal structure of Shireroth, it has been a county, a barony, and even briefly a duchy. It is considered a holy land for the Cedrists, and contains the Cedrist Temple north of Nordagaat on Mirioth, as well as the enigmatic and creepy Children of Mors.

Are you ready for a blast from the past? Because [[Kaiser Mors IV]] has just emerged from a few millennia of mortal sleep and dragged his undead hide all the way back to the Mango Throne! It seems he isn't too happy about his original reign being interrupted and would like to complete it, thank you very much. The Shireroth he returns to is a little different from that which he left, though: the [[Imperial Charter]] is a little more restrictive on his office, but he has considerably prettier headings for his decrees thanks to the outgoing Lunatic [[Kaiser Mo'll I]]. It's just as well the undead are making a comeback as the Summer Activity Slump appears to have claimed Rossheim, as well as Ardy. Perhaps they have been claimed by the icy hand of Mors, to adjust for the new Kaiser slipping from his Celestial grasp. The Gods work in mysterious ways...

Shireroth has seen fit to punish [[Ryker]] Everstone with a turn on the Mango Throne, and now as [[Kaiser Redquill]] he fills the boots left by the 'suicided' [[Kaiser Sehml]] - as fine a time as any for the IRC cabal to spring the latest plan they've been cooking up, namely the secession of [[Kildare]]. In at the deep end it is, then!

The good news is that the worst mid-year activity slump of this decade appears to have been ended by the recent shenanigans, and some renewed mutters of interest are gradually emerging from the Shirerithian woodwork. And that's just swell!

Ooooh....

Shireroth has seen fit to punish Ryker Everstone with a turn on the Mango Throne, and now as Kaiser Redquill he fills the boots left by the 'suicided' Kaiser Sehml - as fine a time as any for the IRC cabal to spring the latest plan they've been cooking up, namely the secession of Kildare. In at the deep end it is, then!

The good news is that the worst mid-year activity slump of this decade appears to have been ended by the recent shenanigans, and some renewed mutters of interest are gradually emerging from the Shirerithian woodwork. And that's just swell!
