2013 — The Twelfth Year
<< 2012 | Year Trail | 2014 >>
2013 saw a lot of interpack politics, conflicts, and alliances. Cour des Miracles and Casa di Cavalieri strengthened their southern alliance by hosting a friendly tournament. Casa di Cavalieri marched on both Anathema and Salsola to confront them about their policies on slavery, and were later attacked by pirates. Yearling packs Vinátta and Sangi'lak struggled to maintain neutrality, eventually driving the Nomads to seek a new territory closer to their allies, New Dawn. AniWaya suffered a flu-like epidemic that left their members gravely ill. Cercatori d'Arte, Vinátta, and Anathema brought about the deaths of notably troublesome loners that dared to harass their pack members. At the end of the year, Sangi'lak was disbanded.
