Moving on, the summer was also the time when the boys in the archives managed to dig up something you had been looking for. The act of lease concerns the most eastern island of Ölfland between the Order of the Argent Stars and the Kingdom of Svengalia. Signed by the second grandmaster of the order and King Erik III, it would give the island over to the order so it might use it as a base for operations in Sparland.
This obviously never came to pass, and the lease, while signed, was never ratified. Instead, the island remained in Svengalian hands; while it is a flimsy pretence, it is all the justification you need.
The campaign was thus nearly a go-go; you would schedule it for the next year, after the winter. While the seas didn't normally freeze over as tightly, you didn't want to risk it. There thus remained a few things to be planned out, first and foremost, what island shall be the first upon the chopping block? Rosand is the closest to Svengalia proper and thus the one most likely to get the most reinforcements. Though if you could thumb them there, they might not be able to help with the other islands at all.
Alfander is the largest island and the northernmost one; it is still home to a substantial population of elves. Getting them on your side might be useful, though you didn't know if that was possible. At any rate, it might be the most difficult invasion if the elves there would help their Svengalian liege lords.
Ölfland is the most easternward island and the most vulnerable; it is the easiest one to take, you guessed, and would open up Sparland if you wished to invade it next, though going there first might give the Svengalians the time to organise.
