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...

"Late in Qarbinionsmoon, the news came... that another great army was marching out of Shirekeep"

The Five Woes of Ynnraile is the collective name given to the history of Shireroth from a Goldshiran perspective. The Five Woes were composed and published by Yvain Wintersong between 3033 and 3037 ASC (25-28 November 2007) as part of the swift development of the Duchy of Brookshire and the culture of Goldshire and Ynnraile specifically during that period.

Each part of the chronological cycle focuses on a different ill or invasion imposed on Goldshire: Treesian colonization, Khaz Modani exploitation, Mercajan oppression, Rrakanychan's wrath, and Brookshirean imperialism. The work forms an important part of the diverse mythology and prehistory of Benacia as an alternative to the Raynorian narrative put forward by SSHIT. It therefore resonates with modern Shireroth's focus on subdivision autonomy rather than centralised Imperial authority.

Kaiseress Kizzy - Beware the banhammer when you see this avatar

The malaise of Daniel III's reign has given way to the open orgy that the ascension of Kaiseress Kizzy to the Golden Mango Throne represents. Drak certainly isn't drek, though there is an on-going conversation about the true nature of Imperial Bloodlines.

Otherwise things remain the same, in the sense that things are always changing. A new Imperial police force called the Mango Rangers have been established, so now the Judex might actually be able to enforce a ruling! No promises on that.
