-====== Song of Whitemeadow ====== 
-Whitemeadow is a mostly social and political [[guide:roleplaying|roleplaying]] plot created September 24, 2017 by [[:guide:game master|GM]] [[user:gallant]]. 
- 
-It is a spiritual successor to [[plot:scythe]]. And strongly touches on the themes of political intrigue, intrapersonal relationships, coping with grief and social expectations. It has been commented that the Song of Whitemeadow reminds people of the fantasy drama, Game of Thrones.

-==== Plot Overview ==== 
-The Frontier of the Frontier, the system of [[system:heled|Heled]] is the first of [[faction:asteria]]'s new colonies.  Located on the far galactic south of the Asterian Frontier, the habitable planet of this system remained unclaimed despite being cleared of its [[species:mishhuvurthyar]] presence by an earlier expedition from the [[stararmy:fleets:fifth_standard_fleet]]. 
- 
-Early in Hachigatsu, of [[calendar:YE 39]], a charter was granted to one of the [[character:bhelith blackspear|Mikado's]] nephews; Lord [[character:npc:Aniseth Whitemeadow]] was given land holdings on the new planet to found an outpost and begin to colonize the new holding with a mind for turning it into a rich resource for the expanding state.  Colonists of all sorts piled upon the ASV //Deluge//, a converted civilian cruise liner, to stake their claims and make their way upon truly unclaimed land.   
- 
-But Whitemeadow, who is still quite close to his minority, is a fledgling at best, and like the colony he and his foundling Knights and Retainers must grow to brave the unknown hills and valleys of their new home with wisdom and courage, proving themselves, in the Asterian way, "Noble by prowess, brave and true," as the fate of a world and the success of the colony rests in the attempt.

-  * **Month 9, Day 1,** Aniseth issues the decree that only nobility, the Free Companies, chartered surveyors, or visiting dignitaries would be allowed to carry weapons, and the Council could issue specific charters for special circumstances.  
-  * **Month 9, Day 28,** Aniseth renders his final verdict on Isao's fate, banishing him from Heled and ordering him to take volunteers to conduct a raid along side [[character:creature]]'s Azalea Free company to fill the Whitemeadow coffers. Isao is to serve Aniseth from a distance and never set foot on the planet again.  
-  * **Month 9, end of the year,** Aniseth establishes Guilds on Heled and issues charters while Aleksasha colonizes and fortifies the planet beyond the city. Both Whitemeadow are beloved by their respective groups but polarizes the city. 
-    * Opal City is chartered and established, with Baron Hatfelzer named lord.  
-    * Glass Starport is established and other offworlders build cities.

-===YE 40=== 
-  * **Month 1, Day 28,** tensions in the City of Glass between the Wyverns and the Roses reach a tipping point when the Whitemeadow manor catches fire in the early morning hours and Lord Whitemeadow is abducted by unknown forces. Lord Sutatuo's men are first on the scene, having seen the fire from orbit and the [[faction:asteria:uial_lug_free_company]] were the next to respond. The House of Whitemeadow militia suspects Isao and Lady Whitemeadow of setting the fire and possibly killing Aniseth.   
-    * Inside the manor, Aleksasha and Cherish discovered that someone compromised one of the Wyverns and murdered an unknown person claiming it to be Aniseth and for Aleksasha's benefit. Aleksasha denies the identity of the charred corpse. Aleksasha scrambles her men and [[character:ozzie_tyson]]'s Roses and coordinates with Isao's men to catch a rapidly retreating vehicle to catch Aniseth's abductors.
