Action by Martino
After House Malvici crushed the Shav'Arvani House Nonperdo they were left with two weaker Shav'Arvani enemies as well as the issue of the city of Asti to resolve. (Action 4386)
Pledging to finish the war off, after taking the time to prepare the Malvici armed forces, the family and allies, the Malvici move forward once more. Martino will be sending in the Malvici Army and Navy with the intention of crushing both of the remaining Shav Houses and to capture their holdings. Further incorprating their holdings into the Malvici domain. With the family taking command of their respective armies, each will be responsible for delivering a successful result at any cost. Once more giving the Shav'Arvani no mercy in their attack on Malvici, the Compact and Duchess Calypso.
---
In Southport itself, Martino will be recruiting and endorsing the war publicly. Providing rallying speeches and using his charm (and public speaking skills) to ensure Southport delivers. That the soldiers fight with glory, for the Compact and for Calypso once more.
He will also be visiting the city of Asti to pledge that those who bend the knee, swearing fealty to House Malvici will be allowed to remain. Remaining as Citizens of the Compact and adhering to all values and laws that the Compact holds dears. Those who opt to not will be granted twenty-four hours to leave of which after they will be seen as Enemies of the Compact once more.
Action by Desma
Desma is intended to command the Magnotta contingent in her capacity as Minister of War. She'll do her best to prove to everyone that not only are Magnotta a worthy military house but that she can contribute well to leading them in battle.
% With this in mind, Desma is going to be using everything that she has learned over the years, from her years in the Malvici army and navy, to her later training under her cousins Domonico and Thea in the art of war. She knows that the Magnotta fleet and army does not have the numbers of Malvici but she can hopefully have them operate alongside in a trusted supporting role. After all, most of Magnotta comes from Malvici anyway.
By Sea and Sky, Duchess Calypso will be avenged!
Action by Lucita
As is only proper, House Saik, vassal of Malvici, is supportive of Malvici in this effort. Lucita focuses on appling non-military skills in this effort. Charm is the primary factor that can, with social interactions, assist with detecting/investigating if enemies attempt manipulation and discern if they are truly ready to rejoin the compact, bend the knee. She uses honesty to lay out facts and tries to persuade people to accept Martinos words.
Action by Enyo
Enyo has been asked to help out with things facing the family, and as always, she's more than willing to assist. This time around she's going to be using her more subtle skills, by heading to the city to make sure that there's not anyone that is hiding in the shadows that can damage what the family is working towards.
Anyone that seems reluctant to bend the knee, she attempts to convince. But that isn't her ultimate goal, those who are actively working against the interest of the Malvici family are sought out, through hook or crook, and "convinced" to come to the senses, if they are not willing to see the error of their ways, then Enyo is going to deal with them in a less friendly manner.
Action by Eirene
Eirene will not let anyone soon forget she is a Malvici, and that the city of Southport is a military power not to fuck with on the open seas. Leading the naval forces, marines, and her combat medics, Eirene takes personal command of the galleon "Queen of Swords".
She reminds her soldiers she is Malvici by both water of womb and blood of battle, and their oath to defend their home, fealty, and Compact is one of the strongest bonds a soldier can give. And there is NO greater tradition than House Malvici bringing war for the defense of the Compact and destruction of enemy forces.
Eireneand the Malvici fleet will track down the ships of any who do not bend the knee to the Compact and House Malvici and send them to the bottom of the sea. As she's said before, "kill them all and let the Marin'alfar sort them out." This is a mission of conquest, but any sailors who beg mercy will be granted it. Their captains and commanders however will meet with a swift end for taking the life of Duchess Calypso. They will feel her wrath and grief for her niece's death.
Action by Akamos
This will be Akamos's first campaign as both First Knight and Trident of Caer Morien and he knows he has a lot to prove. He's no great leader of men nor strategist but he can fight and do that extremely well.
He'll be putting himself with the troops that are aiming to see combat, either in boarding actions or on land and fighting at the front, doing what he does best and inspiring the soldiers through his skill at arms and battle prowess.
Action by Titania
Titania being a ally of house Magnotta as agreed to help house Malvici. Aiding them with her diplomatic skills, she is going to go in hopes she can bring more people into the fold of the compact and that fighting can be avoided.
Result
Remarkably, it goes smooth. Certainly one could expect some riots and violence, having to put down forces that wished to resist, but it just doesn't happen. Asti and all its inhabitants bend the knee, and there's no bloodshed at all.
