Domovoi re-affirm skaven pact

The aggressive expansion of the Kaalroen Empire meant that it was now bounded on all sides by hostile enemies. To pursue their plans for world domination the Kaalroens needed to make war on those empires which opposed them and so they sought to establish alliances with the other forces of disorder. The Skaven had long proved amenable to the Kaalroen's advances but despite the large quantities of resources gifted to them by the Kaalroens they had still made no attempt to attack any other empire, Typhus instead spending most of the aid on infrastructure projects within his own borders.

Impatient, the Domovoi sent an ambassador to meet with Typhus at Boiling Peak and inspect the Skaven Empires preparations for war. To test the Skaven's battle readiness a tournament was planned on the larva plains beneath Boiling Peak. Both sides selected troops who's loyalty had been called into question, seeing this as an opportunity to dispose of unreliable elements within their factions.

The Skaven quickly gained the advantage, their army commanded by a particularly adept Warlord who's abilities had drawn the suspicion of the most Divine Emperor Typhus, who mistrusted excessive competence in his underlings in case they turned it towards personal ambitions. As the dust settled the Skaven troops had won an overwhelming victory and Typhus publicly pardoned his triumphant warlord, although he tragically and accidentally fell into a larva lake during the ensuing festivities. The Chaos delegation was treated to an extravagant feast, although only the threat of unspeakable punishment by their overlords held them in check in the face of Typhus' overwhelming smugness, self aggrandisement and references to the Skaven master race.

Typhus assured the Domovoi that the Skaven preparations for war were almost complete and that they would be mobilising their forces shortly. This proved sufficient to satisfy the Domovoi for the time being, although the perception that the Skaven were happily free loading off Kaalroen aid would continue until Typhus actually began to deliver on his promises.
