The long Raider drought at last found its exception, though the manner of the breaking will please no one in Madrid. San Agustin, held under Spanish colours by NAEP, has fallen out of Spanish hands entirely — the port wrested loose and left to fly no flag at all, neutral ground where a garrison once stood. This column, having spent three consecutive editions cataloguing the Raiders' unbroken record of futility, must now record the ledger's first blemish, even if the prize itself sits unclaimed rather than triumphantly annexed by any victor's banner. No other summons, siege, or scheduled visitation troubles today's docket; the harbours elsewhere rest exactly as they were left. The treasury ledger, true to its recent character, offers no fresh drama. KAMI retains its accustomed first place, its forty ports unchanged since yesterday's count, and no rival clan presses near enough to disturb the settled arithmetic of its supremacy. Caribbean fortunes, for all the stir at San Agustin, remain otherwise content to sit precisely where they were left.
