>>6144004>>6144008>Action 1: SerjeantsAt War, all Ormen need leadership. And whilst the majority of this is to be found in and from the ranks of the nobility, there are many Nobles who would pass upon this privilege of leadership to ride instead with their fellows as Knightly bands. But leadership for the masses must emerge from somewhere; and so it is to the Serjeants that the Orcmanie must look to to lead, embolden and rally the ranks. A freeman who has proven himself capable and competent at leading and commanding upon the smaller scale may oft be awarded a Serjeanty beneath his feudal lord, so that he might rise from the ranks to serve as a leader and an 'interpretive' intermediary between the commands of nobles, the situation on the battlefield and the course that will produce actual battlefield success.
Some Serjeants may yet earn a Knighthood through skill and valour over the course of their service but elect to retain their position rather then take on the trappings of the greater status, officially serving instead as Knight-Sergents.
>Action 2: Northern HarbourThe Isle Blanche is frigid and frozen; yet the scattered small Orcman holdings on the south of the isle still require support and contact. To that end, it is decided to build a true harbour for the isle within the more sheltered bay in the south; protected from most of the fiercest waves and storms by the frozen stones of the isle itself or the lesser Petitblanc.
