| Apparently, while Esraval and Isobel were on their wedding trip, a ship was raided near where their own vessel was sailing and Esraval got on a tear about 'putting an end to such infamy' and has promised his young bride that he will eradicate this threat to Fortian security as a wedding present. The Weyrleader has been going around to the various holds along with other riders to coordinate new efforts that involve pledging a certain number of guards to the effort and in the coastal holds, providing some sea support with boats and at Boll especially, putting riders on ships, posing as sailors in order to be able to call air support in the event of a raid. At Fort, Esraval is hiring additional guards and rapid-training them so that defenses along the roads can be spread out better. The same is being encouraged in all holds in the Fort region. All small holds that 'look to' Fort directly or indirectly through a minor hold will shortly find guard posts being set up along all roads and guards from the Hold becoming more visible and present in general in the area. At Ruatha, the focus is on the river, rather than the roads and patrols are being set up using small boats. At Boll, support for sailing ships is the focus, with guards stashed on as many cargo ships as possible. Will all this activity finally put a stop to the raiding? |
