Ethnic Avalonians living on the peninsula in the Sea of Ormica begin to be harassed by the ruling native ethnic Britons in the area (the Britons fear that the Avalonians, now more connected with the fatherland, will rise up and attempt to join Avalonia). Violence erupts in small and sporadic incidences in the region but is not widespread. Avalonia begins to beef up its navy in the Sea of Ormica.
Avalonian ships heading East reach where most Belanese accounts indicate that travel to the Eastern Kingdoms by land should commence. The spot is marked on maps, but no attempt is made to act on it yet, as the logistics of traveling through unmapped and possibly hostile land seems daunting. Instead, the Avalonian ships report it back to The Council, which authorizes setting up some form of walled settlement there to aid in future travels (Due to the route that the Belanese took to the sea, the location of the settlement is significantly more Northerly than would be desirable to reach the Eastern Kingdoms, and instead would take travelers to nowhere; Avalonia does not know this).
