After this series of crushing defeats, this independent Ray faction, known as the ODRL (Old Dynasty Restoration League; their leader claiming to be a descendant of the original Imperial dynasty that was overthrown by the Mantaxes) retreat to their main base; Gryphon Island, which they'd forcefully claimed several years ago by taking advantage of the Empire and ET's peace treaty at the time, preventing either of those factions from fighting back. ODRL 'Admiral-Emperor', Macabre: "If this keeps up, we won't last for much longer... It looks like the ET has bolstered its numbers with beings from that eastern continent we've heard about." ODRL Captain: "On the bright side, at least the ET are the only ones who've broken the peace treaty. The Empire hasn't made a move to attack...well, anyone." Macabre: "For now, but how long do you think that'll last...? Those accursed Mantaxes are probably waiting for the ET to weaken us just enough to swoop in and finish the job themselves." Captain: "So you think the Empire's indirectly using the ET to weaken us, while still conserving their manpower and resources?" Macabre: "Precisely. We can't hope to ally with the ET against the Empire either, since they're just as opposed to the origi--to the true royal family, as they are to the Mantaxes. We need to look elsewhere for reinforcements." Captain: "What about The Fangs?" The Admiral-Emperor snorts. Macabre: "Those kids? Not only are they principally anti-Empire, meaning they wouldn't fight to restore me to the throne, they're also completely under the boot of that old lion they rescued. I'd trust that Luggington fellow as far as I could throw him...without having chi plugged." OOC: I'm not introducing the Manta Ray Empire proper just yet, because of an agreement with the other RPers that I wouldn't start the West Sea Wars until after the Fire vs Ice story line is over, and also because I'll need time to make the HQ topic and set everything up (there are going to be a lot of characters) before the Empire gets plunged into conflict. Fighting the ODRL for now is still providing the ET with important victories, as they claim more islands. OOC:by the way are the mantaxes the second dynasty? this plot can work well, I can work it out with saying the outer ET tribes would want an alliance with the ODRL, while the holeowls would want to avenge horiax,the frigatebirds franis, the eagles the gryphons and the tigers would want to help their loyal allies(I’m only speaking about colony tribes)and defeat the old dynasty too OOC: Yeah, the Mantaxes were the family who thawed out Faerin and her phoenix, so she manipulated half the Empire into supporting them. The Imperial Civil War ended 215 years ago with the defeat of the original dynasty, and it took over a century for the Empire to become mostly unified and rebuilt (explaining why the Empire didn't do much in the 200-100 BR era). There are other gryphons? I'd originally intended for Galvanor to be the only one within the RP, but of course, anyone else can feel free to use the species after I got it approved by the FAC. Sounds like that'll make for a good twist.

Sounds like that'll make for a good twist. no I meand the reasoning is: outer tibes:defend chima holeowls:avenge horiax frigate birds:avenge franis colony eagles:avenge the gryphons colony tigers:help their loyal allies rebels:probaly place a democracy only the outer tribes want something for which helping the odrl can help see no gryphons at the left,but I can do something with an island colonized by the gryphons

IC:on the island ryzarlian used as main base while waiting for the storm the ET starts building a semi-naval area-integrated stronghold that is meant to become the equal of the hollow. mountains, to break the dominance of the colony over the ET a little and house an invasion or anti-invasion army from chima. OOC:I will post the lay out later, maybe even on an apart topic.by the way if the sea wars start at last,the chimean troops will have to go through ET or rebel territory to unboard safely.the hollow mountains are the key to reach the southern rebel walls safely from the sea and this base will be needed to wait for the torms to lay off and if you want to safely reach the coast and the northern rebel territory you need to go through it and the fortifications at the other islands against the manta’s

OOC:this will become an apart topic if you say you want so or if it becomes to busy

OOC:this will be the demographic centre of the ET,an attack centre in the sea wars and I want a semi-superweapon/movable base too IC:the city consists from ships and temporary neighboring islands connected with bridges and a maze of canals and a few ships have buildings and walls on them.in the centre lies ryzarlian’s government base.the city/stronghold is made to crash on the shore and become a change base for fleets of chima to unboard
