Azure of the White Sea, Adventurer Extraordinnaire...
He walks in with a determined gait. He knows what he seeks, he knows that he will succeed.Many are surprised to see him, as he had been last heard to be fighting bear in the lands of Oshawa. Why he had come back for this Council, well, was unknown. But he was here. And he strode to the centre of the Great Hut, and spoke thusly
I am known as Azure of the White Sea. I am here to let all know that I have heard of Chief Slayer of Many Chairs, and his wish to clear out Conneticutt of any hostile natives. I say this:
"Do not waste your men. I will ensure that they join our mighty nation or die in the process..."
The Chiefs rose,and Slayers of Many Chairs raises his eyebrows in curiousity. Azure of the White Sea saw this, and spoke calmly...
I do not want Conneticutt, no, great Chief. I have bigger plans, and you needn't fear me. I will head through Conneticutt, and follow the coast until i reach the mythical lands of the Micmac. From there, I will see what I will see. I will make good use of the Carrier Hawk Service(CHS), or if desperate, send it via Very Quick Carrier Hawk Service(VQCHS). Rest assured, the Council will know of my successes, and rest assured, the lands of the Confederacy shall expand to such heights that we will see the Great Spirit Herself!
And with that, Azure of the White Sea left. Amid much consternation. Amid much hurried glances, quizzical shrugs, and quiet awe of a man so brash as to compare himself to the Great Spirit. Truly, quite an entrance.

Cheif Big Bears Squats In Woods rises and speaks to his council.
"I will get to the point so we can all go home to our naked women.
I will raise 4000 Warriors , and 2000 HorseBack Warriors (44d)and then
send them to the land south of Deleware. If the locals need to be wiped out so be it , but in any rate I will sens a colonist there. I also would like to raise my city defences (75d)."

Chief Slayer of Many Chairs, having heard the speech of Azure, rises to respond.
"Mighty Azure of the White Sea,
I thank you for your generosity. This will be of great help to me indeed. Nonetheless, I will still build a great army of 10000 warriors in Mohawk; they simply will not travel to Connecticut. The great Army of the Chair, as it shall be called, will instead help me to build an upgrade to the housing and defenses of Mohawk, which I will finance."

Chief Sits When He Pees rises to speak once more.
Chief Big Bear Squats In Woods! I must object to your choice of lands! For the land immediately south of the land of the Delaware is the land of my people, the Chesapeake! Our province is occupied by us, and we will not allow your armies to march into our lands, rape our women, kill our men, throw small candies at our children, and raze our village to the ground! I hope this is merely a misunderstanding of your words, for it would not do for our two tribes to begin a Haudenosaunee civil war!

Many Apologies Cheif Sits When He Pees. I meant to the south of Your land. That it if I am allowed to go there. If not well then I will have to look north.
Accept this eagle feather for I meant no harm for any of our Haudenosaunee brothers.

Blows on Jugs raises his hand in trepidation.
"Mighty Chief, to increase the defences of your city will cost much more than you think.[125d for level 2 fort, 75d for level 1, just add 50d/level]. And Mighty Chief Big Floppy Donkey Dick, will you not send any colonists out? Let them waste away in Tuscarora? Might I be so bold as to suggest building some troops, clearing out the Catskills, and sending a trader there to increase our empire?"
"And do people wish to build new cities to the glory of the Great Spirit? Or increase the Trading Empire that we have?"
And with that, Blows on Jugs goes back to chronicling the Council

Thank you, brother Big Bear Squats in the Woods. May I offer you some of the finest Chesapeake tobacco? As for Chronicler Blows on Jugs, I agree that we Haudenosaunee should enhance our trading efforts. If it pleases the other chiefs, I propose that we send traders with the finest products from each of our lands to Mohawk, where we should all profit from their work.
Blows on Jugs raises his hand again
"Sorry, but when i said traders, what i meant was that trading posts be set up throughout the empire. That or new villages, thus the sending of settlers . So, to recap, to send settlers shows that the Chief wishes to start a new village. To send out traders means that you wish to build a trading post for the increase of our trading empire. I hesitate to mention this, as the Great Council is filled with the wisest of men. I will say no more"
*******************************
[OOC: Sorry, need to know what people are sending. traders are cheap, but less money in the long run. colonists are more expenseive, more difficult short term, but lots of money to gain in long run. Many thanks. As soon as ig et the confirmation, i will start. And any stories, whatever you want to start, there is a story thread]

Chief Sits When He Pees rises once more.
Ah, of course. I should have realized, Chronicler. Our Chesapeake dialect still has many words that differ from the standard Haudenosaunee tongue, and I must have mistook the word you spoke for another. I offer my sincerest apologies to the other chiefs for this misunderstanding. Please, allow the council to continue its affairs.
Chief Sits When He Pees sits again, puffing on his pipe.
Chief Slayer of Many Chairs rises to speak.
"Great Chronicler, I would like to restate, so as not to cause any confusion, for the record that I wish to:
*upgrade Mohawk's city defenses;
*improve Mohawk's tax collection system;
*conscript a grand army, the "Army of the Chair", which shall stay in Mohawk to assist in the upgrading of the city defenses;
*send a colonist to Connecticut after the great warrior Azure of the White Sea either converts or destroys the local natives.
Thank you, Great Chronicler."

"Me, cheif Swings on the End of a Rope of Manhattan, will restate what my will is too:
* I will raise 3000 new soilders in my province
* I will appoint a tax collector
* I will send a trader to catskill"
With a determined face, Swingie sits down.

With a determined face, Swingie sits down.
We the Onodaga have decided to send our troops too Niagara when they are trained to defend our settlers.
A new Council, A new Dawn...
The day has come. The new Council begins. The previous year saw much joy, as well as much sadness.This day, December 31 1492 is the beginning of new and wonderous things for the Haudenosaunee. The Chiefs enter, all of the usual suspects
As they all take their seats, the King enters, followed by two regal men. These must be the new adventurers that had been spoken of. One of them is huge. Simply enormous. He must be as tall as two men, if that. He has a fur patch over his left eye. This must be Blind Elephant. No one is certain what an elephant is, but assumes it means the size of the man. The other has two wolves as white as snow which pad closely beside him. The King speaks:
King: I trust all Chiefs find themselves in good spirits?
All Chiefs in unnison: Yes, Bear Paw.
King: I bring before you two new adventurers. I give you Blind Elephant(motions to the massive man) and White Wolf(motions to the man with the white wolves beside him). They have been known in other areas of the lands as Great Leaders, Great Warriors, and Very Sage. I would hope that you will treat them as such.
The two adventurers bow, and everyone waits for them to speak. But first Bear Paw must finish:
King: The Head Chif for this Council is Oswego. I trust all will follow procedure, as I have heard of the visitation by the Great Spirit. I would warn that if this happens again, the power of the Council will be lessened considerably...
This last comment is met with some startled glances, and some murmuring. This is the King who speaks to them like this. Several Chiefs make a motion that shows their displeasure. Bear Paw leaves, and lets the Great Council for 1493 begin...

The massive man steps forward and bows before the assembled chieftans. The man easily towers over any of them by a good foot, he sits and waits for his appointed time to speak.... Ah !
Greetings Chieftans of the great people's. My Full name is Blind-Elephant-Continuously-Hits-His-Head-Against-A-Wall-Trying-To-Go-Through-It-Stops-Sits-Down-Bewildered-Then-Gets-Up-And-Trys-Again (curse the spirits that caused my parents to be living next to a circus at the time and honouring the old tradition of naming the newborn after the first thing they see out of the teepee). But u most people call me Blind Ewephant. (slight speech impediment showing...)
I have led my mighty band of warriors here to announce that i intend to travel far to the South, to lands where there are other people fabled to be called 'Aztecs' and 'Inca's' by the ancient writings. It is my life quest to find an ewephant and bring it back to show all people what i am named after !
Blind Elephant gets up and signals to his men to prepare to move out and seek out the unexplored lands of the South.

*the other explorer waits patiently for blind elephant to finish, and then he too, stands and bows to the assembly*
and i as well, great chief, wish to use my skills as an explorer and traveller for the good of the tribes. i too have heard tales of great cities to the south and far to the east, and i wish to see these for myself. they say that these cites are the color of the sun in the evening sky. if that is true, then the gods themselves must have built them. i will find them, if it takes my life. south also i go, and then east.
*white wolf falls silent, allowing his words to sink in*

Chief Big Bear Squats In Woods rises among the other leaders of the Haudenosaunee to begin the new year with the address to the council
My brothers in blood, My brothers in Spirit we as a nation have taken great strides across our land. I see that our influence over the other outside tribews is growing , but need to grow even more. There have been a few setbacks to our destiny , but nothing we cannot handle. Now, so we can get this underway allow me to get the meeting going so we can all get back to our tribes.
I Chief Big Bear Squats In Woods will send a trader to Penebscot. I will however send 1k of both my infantry and horseback riders to Penebscot to await their arrival. I will also raise 2k infantry , and 2k horseback riders. I will also promote a fur collector. That is all.
He motions for Chief Big Floppy Donkey D!ck to address the council. Chief BBSIW sits down and begins to puff on the peace pipe smoking the tobacco that Chief Sits When He Pees gave him earlier in the year forgiving CBBSIW for his obvious slip of the tongue with his settler placement.
