RP: A Brief History of Prison Island
During the colonization of the Northern Island, later named Hymn Island, the Eastern Isle was designated a prison colony which grew rapidly from the influx of war prisoners during the 12 Year Strife. Overtime the isle became know as Prison Island as it was slowly converted into the Atomic Schism's primary max-security prison facility. Its most notable inmates include, Chuscho Ueaernei; a fieldnurse who was rumored to cannibalize on wounded soldiers brought back from the frontlines, Ejeereak Koleps; a priest responsible for encouraging the religious violence in the Borderlands several years ago, and Oleaseer Uoere; a former bodyguard of President Goode and the man responsible for shooting King Hymn I during his dual with Goode.
In Prison Islands roughly 30 years of history, there has been no successful escape from the prison complex. . . And then the Icewindians came.

As the fire from the gunships rained on to the Prison Island complex, alarms blared while guards frantically tried to avoid the Icewindian fighters. Air bases were never established on Hymn Island--and by extension Prison Island--and thus the Fighters flew uncontested by the Republic of Hymn. Despite this, the 500 prison guards attempted resistance to the invasion by firing their laser rifles at the planes overhead and the approaching marines. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to the panicked guards, the fire from the Icewindian ships caused massive damage to one of the Complex's main holding centers, allowing hundreds of prisoners to escape. Running to the docks on the western side of the island, the prisoners overwhelmed the guards stationed there and stole several of the Prison's personal boats, just moments before the docks themselves became a scathing crater. The prisoners were last seen reportedly headed south to the mainland, across the narrow channel and to the coasts just recently abandoned by the Commonwealth's Volunteer Army.
RP: The Siege of Easttown, Eftmind, Valley, and Vteovtea
In the Northern Schism, the Commonwealth's Volunteer Army have reached the cities controlled by the Dual Church rebellion, Easttown and Eftmind. While the rest of the army marches into the Schismian mountains, 10,000 soldiers are left behind to besiege and retake Easttown and Eftmind. However, despite their numbers, the citizens of the cities have been fiercely fighting back.
Eftmind
In Eftmind, the city's population has begun to send out suicide cars, severely disrupting the actions of the besieging soldiers. The very act of the suicides has reportedly deeply disturbed some of the younger troops, especially those from Eftmind. Nevertheless, after brute forcing their way past the civilian barricades, the soldiers entered the city. . . only for its citizens to open fire. With many of the Commonwealth's soldiers hesitant about killing their fellow citizens, the defending 'army' retaliated fiercely, driving the Commonwealth's out through the barricade with ambush tactics and suicide bombers. . .
Easttown
The situation for the Commonwealth's Army did not improve at Easttown. Being one of the larger cities of the Northern Schism, the soldiers sent to recapture it quickly resorted to artillery strikes and sent 4 tanks to pave the way in to the inner city. As the tanks entered however, several dozen unarmed civilians began to walk towards the Commonwealth's camps, their arms above their heads in surrender. But as reconnaissance groups approached them, bombs that were hidden underneath the civilians clothes detonated, killing anyone close too them. It was later determined the citizens killed were members of the New Northern Faith, rounded up from their homes when the Dual Church first took over. Worried that their invasion could lead to more innocents dying, the commanding officers of the Commonwealth's troops recalled the tanks and halted the artillery barrage.
Vteovtea
In the Borderlands, the Dual Church's civilian army has been making headway north, desperate to reach the Schismian mountains before the Commonwealth's forces can reach the City of Expedition. In their path was the City of Vteovtea, where the Church Faithful entered conflict with city's police department upon entering its outskirts. Despite many citizens joining their defense, the city quickly became overran thanks to the superior weaponry of the Dual Church's followers. As the city hall fell and its mayor was taken from his home, Sekturalists--along with practitioners of other religions--were rounded up once more and executed in the town square. Perhaps out of fear for their families, many of the towns citizens also agreed to be baptised in the Dual Church's name and were spared from the executions, but in return were forced in to military service.
Valley
The southermost metropolis of the Province of Dominold, the majority Catholic population was initially able to halt the sudden Dual Church uprising, but over the course of the following days, towns and village were eventually overran, leaving Valley and it surrounding neighborhoods completely cutoff from the rest of the Commonwealth. As such, the Dual Church forces have blockaded the city's roads in an attempt to starve it into submission. It has been reported while the siege continues, Valley's population has turned to intense prayer in hopes of divine intervention.
