>Turn 10
Action 1:
Akat the blacksmith was bent over his forge when the young princess stormed in. She held forward her spear, broken at the socket.
“Akat! You call this fine forgery? I cannot throw this without it splintering.”
“Jannah, forgive me. This is the best I can offer you, the best spear in all of Tarnia. But mere mortal metals cannot match divinity. Surely you can understand that?”
“Then I shall teach you the secret of the divine metal, the gilded material which trims Hamsa’s sky-chariot as he wheels it across the heavens.”
And so it was that the Tarns were taught to forge bronze.
>Alloying Technology/Invention of Bronze
>Hail Jannah, daughter of Arana, mistress of the Holy Forge. From your bosom spills forth gifts of green and gold. May your grace be honored by our work today, may your blessings channel sweetly through our fingers
Action 2: Prospecting
Such a miraculous discovery cannot be shared with others, nor can a holy material such as this be forever dependent on another land for its production. As such, a directive is set forth to begin prospecting the lands for a source of tin. Tin comes from the Ahmosi, so it makes the most sense to begin prospecting from the south and moving north.
>Prospect southern regions
>Free Action: Army Moves North
Tensions with the Ahmose having cooled for the moment, the Tarnish Army begins to move north, aiming to station themselves at the burial mounds in anticipation of the forthcoming Ocenian expedition.
