IC: Bliston: "Well one would think the Forgotten would've at least had the decency to provide you with food and water."
(OOC: can you don't?)
Bratta: "They did provide us the necessary supplies and foodstuffs, it was around for three months before they began to slowly resent us during some sort of "reformation" going on in the group..."
Barney: "Yeah, thats when we decided to bail out and come back to you, thinking other tribes wouldn't wanna harbor us."
OOC: *Can you not.
Bliston: "Alright. You two come to the throne room of the new castle when you're recuperated. I have explaining to do of my own, regarding why we moved to this island. My castle is in the middle of Balthazar city, behind the fountain and the central courtyard." Bliston flies out of the hospital.

-barney sighs and looks at his two new children once Bliston left-
Barney: "Something tells me he really doesn't care for your new children..." -he'd looked uneasy about it-
Bratta: "Nonsense, dear! He loves them, he'll be a great uncle." -She'd smile, happily cuddling her newborns tight against her-
Barney: "Well, i gotta go, i gotta see what Bliston's up to now, so i'll see ya when i see ya!" -he'd grinned and hastily flies out to follow Bliston quickly...-

OOC: Oh.
IC: Bliston arrives in his throne room, and is presumably soon met there by Barney, since the latter had been following him. Bliston: "Oh, Barney. You're here already. Well, what I tell you now, you can relate to Bratta later. Keep in mind that what I'm about to tell you, I think only the bats know...well, I've suspected that the Empire of Balance is aware of it as well, but I'm not sure. The point is, that I want you to keep this information only to the Bats and our closest allies, for now..."

Bliston: "The Empire of Balance is a recently created faction comprised of the Vulture and Leopard tribes. The Brotherhood of Vultures was one of the tribes that froze the Crawler Empire, and the Leopard Tribe was an enemy faction of theirs. The leopards helped rescue me and the other frozen Chimians from the Icebears' HQ, and soon after, the vultures detached themselves from the Ice Hunters and allied with the leopards, for reasons unknown to me. Anyway, I wanted to inform you of the existence of an empire somewhere out here on the sea, that could pose a threat to the entire mainland of Chima."

(OOC: I still call dibs on Shark 1IC! Team Aqua FTW! ) -Barney looked a bit shocked at the news of all this- Barney: “Wow, talk about a news flash... especially those new tribes that pose threat to the mainland, what are they about so far...?”

OOC: The Rays have been around a while, so maybe the sharks could be new allies for them.
IC: Bliston: "While on his travels, during our war with the Chima Alliance, Balthazar ran into the path of a scout ship piloted by members of an unknown species, claiming that a long-standing empire of some sort was planning to conquer the east now that they'd confirmed that there's a continent that way to be conquered (Chima). Balthazar destroyed the scout ship before its crew could report back to their Empire what they'd learned."

"Even us outlanders aren't alone as well..."
Bliston: "This island we've claimed rests between Chima and the unknown western empire. We're heavily weaponizing, militarizing, and building a new, gradually more technologically advanced fleet; New Bat Island will act as a sort of wall for Chima. If the northern and southern tribes of the mainland are still locked in combat if or when our western enemies invade, we Bats could be the only neutral party to defend the eastern continent as a whole."

Barney: "Guess the irony isn't lost on us, eh? Well, i have seen multiple different island around this chain, we can use them as boarder patrol points and for extra, if not, added super weapons against this new threat." -he'd said, crossing his arms-

Bliston: "Yes, we have been building docks and outposts on the small islands off the coast. The largest island besides New Bat Island in this area is about a mile south of us. It's been claimed by a branch of the Forgotten, calling themselves the Forgotten West."

(OOC: You mean St. Olga? That island is mostly settled by Eagle and Crawler Fisherman and merchants, sure there is a small presence of Forgotten, but they are there for transport to the mainland.)
Bliston: "Hm, guess it seems like we'll be island-hopping round and round just to fend off this new threat. I dunno, king. I feel our defenses are spread out too much. Can't we concentrate and turtle here? and make all the other island decoys? I mean, i feel like there might be well over a hundred isles in this Galapagos, but if there's ever a major naval conflict, at least have production facilities on most of the islands around NBI."

OOC: No...New Bat Island is extremely far away from the mainland and the other known islands. As in, you couldn't see Chima over the horizon if you stood on the shores of New Bat Island looking through binoculars. New Bat Island is almost completely remote, with the only island nearby (that isn't super tiny) being the southern island the Forgotten claimed.
IC: Bliston: "So... are you proposing artificial islands? We can't make bases on islands close to the mainland, because that's too close to the reach of the Ice Hunters, and I don't want to have to deal with them again; I've heard that the Sabertoothes have a fleet."

(OOC: Hm, i see. I don’t remember occupying a southern island. ) Barney: “Hm, if they have a fleet, then we’ll used the combined power of our airforces as well as our. Burgeoning Navy to destroy every last ship they own!”

OOC: After you left, I had (what I thought at the time were) the remaining Forgotten from the crater migrate to an island south of New Bat Island. Now they're still there because of storyline and future lore purposes, so they're kind of a splinter faction.
IC: Bliston: "No, no. We've already fought the Ice Hunters. Part of the reason we migrated out here is so that we're out of their reach, and can thus focus on building up our defenses against the western threat. If the Ice Hunters find this HQ, we will defend it, but I will no longer engage the Ice Hunters.
