===================

The Abresi Town Hall.

===================

 

 

Home to the Maer, as well as the meeting place for

many an official transaction or dealing within the city.

 

Upstairs, in his office, Jospeh Lane can be found behind his desk,

penning another document.

 

 

 

 

((

The forum thread to discuss matters regarding Abresi if you are unable to locate myself (Senda/Joseph Lane) or any of the Stewards in-game.

 

Having said this, this -is- a roleplay thread, so take care to treat it as such.

Uriah Darby grumbles as he walks up to the desk, pulling out the chair and seating himself. He folds his hands on the table, clearing his throat

"Would you sell the old Arena?"

He bluntly asks

Meanwhile in the old arena, Lark tortures some poor sod who had been stealing his wine skin off his belt and emptying it for the past week.

Joseph Lane raises an eyebrow slightly, then puts his quill back into the inkpot.

 

Leaning back slightly as he folds his hands together, he answers:

 

"I am afraid it is not for sale.. and scheduled to be demolished."

 

Pauzing for a moment, he continues:

 

"I am however, of a mind to host the occasional tournament, for which a temporary arena would be erected."

 

"What exactly is your interest in all of this to begin with?"

"I wish to hold grand tournaments of fighting."

"I wish to hold grand tournaments of fighting."

 

Joseph looks at the man intently.

 

"Grand tournaments you say.. Interesting."

 

"Well, I can tell you that we intend to hos a grand tournament as soon as the entire Abresi construction is completed. With that I mean the construction of the Royal Keep, the remodeling of the city wall and gate.. as well as the demolition projects around the old city, of which the old Arena is one."

 

"As soon as all of that is done, I shall be on the lookout for someone to host a grand tournament in celebration of all the efforts that are then behind us."

 

"A celebration of that magnitude would entail the construction of a number of temporary structures to support it.. but I envision those same structures to be removed once the event has passed, for to have a grand arena would only see it empty and in a state of decay for most of the time. A temporary structure.. or multiple ones, then becomes a far better alternative."

 

Joseph pauzes before continuing.

 

"Would you be interested in organizing such an event?"

[Thatpyrodude 2008]

"It would be a honor to host such an event to celebrate Oren's great accomplishments".

[Senda 472]

"It would be a honor to host such an event to celebrate Oren's great accomplishments".

 

Joseph smiles thinly.

 

"Very good. Then I suggest you plan the event with all expedience. The sooner you can present it, the sooner I can wave it in the face of the workers, to embolden their efforts to demolish things with haste and host your tournament all the sooner."

[Thatpyrodude 2008]

"I will begin Planning, what exactly do you want me to plan, an arena and an event?"

[Senda 472]

Joseph Lane crosses his arms.

 

"The remains of Old Abresi have nearly been cleared out.. a vast swathe of open land can now be found in front of the city."

 

"Nothing shall be built here, unless we host an event such as your tournament."

 

"At all other times, we shall allow a forest to spring up. Nature shall thrive when we give it leave to do so."

 

 

Pauzes briefly, then looks at the man.

 

 

"I would like to see how you would have this tournament take place."

 

"Clearly, how have a number of ideas, or you would not be here to talk to me about them."

 

"Bundle them up into a plan and present it to me."

Vassily of Strelt of Abresi enters the Town Hall. His step betrays itself, humble as an strelt's walk should be, but with a swagger as no other would have among this city of Heartlanders. His clothes are tatters, his bardiche worn, and his face an absolute horrid mess. What more could an outsider expect from one of this passionate serf?

 

He strides up to the second floor, a small retinue of fellows following him. Among these is Borik Godzimir, cleric to Godanistan, Bjork a fine strelt, and the Krawfyod brothers. With a few curt words and gestures his fellows shuffle about, only Borik and Roderick Krawfyod following him into the Maer's office. 

 

"Good greet Maer Josef!"

 

He appears to make an awkward point to be friendly, something that would easily appear out of character to him. The strelt coughs after the boisterous greeting.

 

"Vassily Leonidov, Strelt of Kralta and Sovet of Bresi."

 

The strelt offers Joseph a firm Raevish handclasp, continuing rather bluntly into business.

 

"Maer Josef, I will be quick to make my point. We are representatives of Kraltan streltsy, and those who are moving into Bresi. It has been will of us strelts to reestablish Sovetski, one of ancient guilds of Old Raev. We feel that if Kraltan strelts are to retain cultural purity and social community in Bresi, this is big matter,"

 

Vassily allows Joseph to take this in for a minute minute before continuing.

 

"Of course, that is little importance to you for now. I will be blunt Maer Josef. We streltsy feel that other Bresians do not respect our culture, beliefs, and ways. Because of this, we are looking for place to establish a home in Bresi."

 

He chuckles looking back at his fellows.

 

"My brosa call it 'Little Kralta'. They called it that long before macecatching skirtmen came into town. Now, Maer, this Sovet District of town will be home for all men of Raevish origins and all members of Sovetski. All sovets will live, work, and meet here. We are hoping for fine Sovetski meeting hall, where Raevirs can gather and drink and meet to discuss matters important to us. I spoke with my Lord Carrion, and he agreed on all these points. I also made speech with former Maer Tuv and old king. There is a space past taxation offices that would work. So long as streltsy are allowed to make adjustments to those buildings, we will move in soon enough. If not there, we will make room some place else. What is it you say Maer?"

 

Vassily puts his hands on his belt, waiting for the maer to respond.

 

((If they so wish, Borik and Roderick can respond to this and take part in the conversation. if further explanation is needed, I can offer it in a PM.))

~ Request for Little Kralta to be built /adapted from the new housing behind the Taxation Office.

 

Joseph Lane, after fumbling the handclap completely, only to have it explained without words by the other strelts as Vassily continues his address, straightens up.

 

"Well, this is intruiging."

 

"What you request has actually been planned many elven weeks ago.. and was put on hold while we had to sort out a number of things in the city, following Tuv's sudden departure. Now that most of those pressing matters have been resolved, we are back on track.. and we are nearing completion on the Little Kralta project."

 

"Essentially, you shall have all that you ask for, given a few more days, wherein mason Manfred and his team can work to give the district a proper Kraltan look.. as right now, only the bare structures have been put up, lacking any defining features, other then matching the basic style of Abresi itself."

 

"When it is done, it will be our sincere pleasure to allow you to call it home."
