@Chaeronea I just halved their stats for the stay at hand thing, mostly as an experiment for this. This means Russet would have a Martial score of 12-13, but how much of that is the truth or an estimation is really unknown.
And yes, Henry is more stable than Razz, but you'd have to have Dust Threads covering your entire body and come to a dark realization about how the world works to be less stable than Razz. (At that point, the dark realization would have made the person MORE stable!)
Edit: And ninja post. The answer to that first question is which is closer. You'll have your answer then. A ceremonial war is pretty much what I had described in the "You have chosen Menagerai Knight" post. A war where the combatants really just gather to throw insults at one another, occasionally throw spears and shot and then redefine territorial lines. It's a stupidly roundabout way to save face when the real thing happens in a bit of negotiation (give me this land and I'll give you this, and we will both look honorable because we were fighting each other). Doing the duel is another way to do it that will also cause prestige loss/gain.
I know I'm going to have a lot of hell for choosing that name, but the key context word for that line is "still". Atlas the Lands, during and after the Before Times, basically has nothing to do with Menagerie since it is literally on the other side of the world. The only real contact is through the rare raiders who get really, really lost. Most of those raiders die before they get past the lower section of Vale due to hunger.
Atlas the Hunter is the one who your father was still giving money to. Skye has no clue why this could be, but the players are free to guess.
Edit Edit: Until Atlas the Hunter leaves the story, I'll refer to anything coming from Atlas the land as Solitas/Mantle, given that it's the name of the continent/the actual name of that area's Kingdom.
