| *a ragged page blows down the breezy streets of your town* VOLUNTEERS ROUT AS D'GAR RECLAIMS CEDARWOOD!  The thundering machine of the Lord Protector rolled into Cedarwood last night and flattened the entrenched resistance of the Volunteer force as it stood in the midst of the hamlet. Seemingly caught off guard, the rebel defenders were scattered and their unruly numbers spread about the clearing as the guardsmen entered and formed their neat ranks. Professional soldiery clattered against a poor imitation of the old militia and the rapparee band were hit for hefty losses. Free Yew's Volunteers had gone a long way from their guerrilla roots but will likely be considering the worth of their changes in the wake of considerable loss. The organisation of Lord D'Gar's men was clearly superior and the Yewish engine of steel and flesh was sturdy as it drove off the dissenting crowd.
Cedarwood was silent in the aftermath as survivors straggled into the woods of Yew, scattered in every direction to lick their many wounds. The besieger presence of Master Walker and tidy ranks of crossbow fire broke the rebel lines with ease and the usually hardy defenders appeared jaded, beaten as they rallied to save their freedom.
As the Lord Protector surveyed his newly retaken domain, the rebel leader and his entourage are believed to have escaped, if barely, clutching severe wounds and heavily dented pride. Rebel whisperings have been muted by fear across the township, and Yew's stunned silence is testament to the militia's might. None the less, the rebel factions lays somewhere, for now dormant, in Yew, considering it's next move.
