The Present: Update 2/2012

As the attacks and the upheaval has started in the various colonies the Scepter Trials are on everyone's mind. The bloody pacts and treaties that still hold the colonies to each other seem to have faded into the dust. There seems to be only distrust of the other colonies as the Wandering Tribes gain power and continue to ransack the convoys of trade between the colonies.

The only pacts that are held out of the dust of time are the pacts dealing with the trade and control of the various elements each colony possesses. It is wondered whether the secret battalions of old that were never disbanded will be come active once again or if a somewhat peace will still reign supreme between the colonies.

The politics have become more trying as some of those who have tried rebelling the world order in the colonies have started to come to court. The issue? Which colony has the right to try them? along with what punishments are allowed without exceeding morality?
