IronSage has advanced troops deep into the Tuskspire, forcing the native Orc into higher grounds to avoid another conflict of man.

Times are grim.
In one last bid for peace the delegates of both kingdoms meet in the fort of Vliem. The last known correspondence Lord Hyrum Marshallette grim and not offering much hope
It has been months since the skies turned crimson and that dreadful tower rose from beneath the Weyersiph. Long months of strenuous negotiations and political parlays attempting to establish a peace between Ironsage and Glandamier. I have fought tooth and nail to protect my beloved home while attempting to make concessions as requested by Ironsage. It has been soul draining the moments of heated debate, finger pointing and veiled threats. Honestly I am not sure how the peace talks lasted this long but they remain.
So here we are at the final push for peace, my entourage and I meeting with the delegates from Ironsage one last time, on their home grounds, a definite advantage but they would not be swayed. I may not return from this my dear, if that is the case then know I perished doing the duty to the crown.

Lord Hyrum Marshallette
