The Return Of A Son

[monkeymo14 53]

Many years ago, a child was born. The mother died during labor, leaving the father to deal with the child by himself.

 

For nights and nights, the father sat with his young son, caring for him, and keeping him in good health. One night the father looked down at his son and smiled, then spoke.

 

 

"I think I shall name you Castor."

 

 

The father raised the child until the age of six, before sending him off to be educated by a knight.

The child grew, being trained to fight by the knight, and educated in politics, and basic math, and the church.

For years the child did this, and quickly he and the knight learned that the boy was not a fighter. The boy was sickly and thin, and he was not soldier material.

So the boy studied and stayed inside, and at least once a month he got sick, and could not learn for a week or so, then back to the normal routine.

 

He did this for ten years.

 

 

At the age of sixteen the boy said goodbye to the knight, thanking him for the years of teaching. The boy made his way home.

 

The boy rode slowly back to his home, not wanting to return. He would miss his knight friend.

 

Castor reaches the county of Furnestock, and rides to the construction site of the new manor. He rode up to the man overlooking the construction site, Lord William Horen.

 

"Hello father. I'm home."

 

William looks to Castor and nods.

 

Castor Jrent, bastard child of Lord William Horen has returned home.

"Your not just a bastard, but a royal bastard"

 

William hugs his son tightly having a joke

Magnus peers out of the tent at William and Castor, blinking, still clutching Nero's crown, he sighs heavily and then goes back to tracing the designs on the crown in the dark

Somewhere else Jon is trying to add up the years

"At 6 he studied for a knight... And did so for 12 years... Then how the hell is he 16 now?"

Jon grumbles continuing to try to solve how he himself is 6969 years old.

[Aetosion 2062]

((Did you legitimize Castor as a part of the family, or does he remain a Jrent?))

(( Still a Jrent I think I'd have to go to the church to legitimize him ))

Lucien II hasn't legitimized him because nobody brought the fact that there is ANOTHER Horen bastard.

Wishes the High Pontiff was around Abresi so he may have a chance to speak to him.

[Haribo 385]

Lucien II is accepting letters.

[Archbishop John 85]

Would like to inform Lucien II that he should never, legitimize bastards, and be faithful to his name sake Lucien I, in that he valued family, and frowned upon laying outside of marriage. He also would like to say that the mother is unknowed, and it is disgraceful to legitimize a child with a unknown mother being that the mother might be lowborn. 

[Haribo 385]

Lucien II was never informed, and never intends to legitimize bastards in the first place.
