Rhetoric remains high in the TVM/SHARK conflict in Newlands, with leaders from both alliances as well as DSD trading barbs in a heated Illyriad forum debate that has appeared to have not moved the needle on the issue of who will eventually control the key strategic BL peninsula, or whether both alliances can eventually coexist. While tension still exists, no sieges have posted between the two alliances, nor is there any indication that full war will be declared at this point.
The forum discussion has mainly focused on debatable topics such as whether negotiating over a land claim policy indicates that an alliance recognizes said claim, or whether SHARK’s intentions were to move to Newlands to provoke a war with TVM or not. Regardless, the meandering debate has led to some key political statements indicating that other power brokers in the game are reluctant to enter the conflict.
