- Investigations with Arstotzkan SP bring to light Some troubling information; Hooded Strangers found to be making private meetings with high-end Merchants and Bankers with in Cattonia, and while attempts to eavesdrop on these meetings have failed, a small but noticeable discrepancy between the traffic of goods in Cattonia and the wealth of the Elite suggests that the Hoods are being funded through Cattonian businesses.

- More sophisticated barrels and powder charges produce more effective cannonade, with superior accuracy and efficiency compared to earlier bombards.
- Attempts to use explosives to power machinery go sour, as the powder can surely move things, but the powder is not convenient as a source of energy.
- As animal science begins to… "improve"… security measures to prevent the escape of hybrids is stepped up. Additionally, the Snartle is domesticated. Which is cool because they're basically giant armored snakes.

- A study group of Scholars convenes in service to the Emperor, and dedicate themselves to interpreting the less manifest entities of the universe.
- Contact is made with several foreign powers; the first, the Japanese as they are called, are a very secular people, and refuse contact with the Madom. The second, the people known as the Teuchi, are more open, trading maps and openly.
- Further explorations into the east meet nothing but open ocean, and a destitute flotilla of Junkers is forced to turn back.
- War continues favorably for the Dynasty, as Madom claims are no longer incurred upon by the Clans. Casualties are beginning to add up however, even if the Clans suffer the much more.
- The position of Emperor gains evermore power as the bureaucracy of the Dynasty is now almost entirely rooted in China. In response, the Khans and Khagans are recognized as Governors of the norther provinces, no longer owing tribute, only fealty. This does much to stabilize the nation, but also means the Khans gain a great deal of independence, so far removed from the Palace.

- Akash children are hurdled one of two forms of education; the first, religious and philosophical matters, as well as practical knowledge, the other military academies dedicated to teaching martial and military skills. There is some protest, children being useful as labor, but the attendance of girls is significantly higher, due to ye olde sexism.
- Construction begins on a large "sea-wall", a means to hopefully dissuade attacks by the semi-mythical Warcrabs, the Gods and Devils of the ruling Church of Akash.
