Scars of War - Background Lore

Kris writes in to point out a nice piece of lore / background story from Scars of War on the Iron Tower forums (second post).  Here's the opening paragraph:

Mirtar was the most directly affected. A bountiful nation of farmers and traders, their land was the centre of the conflict and bore the brunt of it. Fields lie fallow, farmers slaughtered or displaced. The council of Nobles which took control after their King died and Lethan attempted to conquer them sits in the capital and fights over the succession, their ranks divided into two factions. While they squabble their people starve. They respond by using military force and hired mercenaries to keep the peace. But they haven't the forces to control their entire territory, they guard the capital and main cities and the people in outlying areas are left to fend for themselves against bandits and the Sidhari raiders who still linger in Mirtar, intent on looting.
