Flaying 26 Share Posted November 3, 2014 1st of Sun’s Smile, 1469. A missive to Edmund Horen On the future of House Horen and the claim that he unrightfully holds on the titles of Pertinax Horen, I, Pertinax Horen left the realm of Anthos with the most faithful of companions as the patriarch of the greatest house to ever grace the earth. In truth, I never relinquished the title to the cowards such as yourself who decided to stay behind, destroy the empire that my forefathers created and still have the cheek to call yourselves ‘dragons’, the audacity of the line that cowered in Anthos whilst better men searched for ways to expand our Imperial majesty knows no bounds. I understand one of your ilk calls herself the ‘Storm Dragon’ yet my father, a man you call Saint Godfrey said no more had existed past myself and my 2 brothers. Not only that but to further bring shame to the name of House Horen I was struck by three men during the fight against the Undead. It is not a coincedence that this happened and therefore I accuse you of treason and kin slaying. Although it is not my place to decide guilty or innocent, I leave it in the hands of the Emperor to provide a just judgement. With my return I, Pertinax Horen the Red Dragon, expect said titles to be returned to me with due haste and no compromise or there will be bloodshed and doggage.Signed by, Pertinax Horen 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

susitsu 871 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Lucas Black stares for a long moment, counting the years, before realizing that if this person is young enough to even have a steady hand, they're not human considering how many Elven years ago that was.

Avacyn 1712 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Deep within the bowels of Kaer Angren, within the twisting, winding, dark caves that the Rosenbergs once called their Promised Land, a figure hastily slides rings across the massive abacus that the frugal bankers called "Shekelmeister'". Upon sliding one last ring, the Duke, Martial Solatius, looks between the huge abacus and the missive Edmund Horen had shown him earlier. Black crosses wave within his mind's eye. The warhorns of the North echo in his memories. With a horrified stare, he turns to look at the cavern entrance, mumbling to himself."It's so simple... he hid in the most unlikely of places... only one man- no, only one creature could have lived this long."The Duke trembles."Clade Teutonica..." he whispers softly. "Our ancient enemy has arisen. Mirtok walks among the living." 24 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With my return I, Pertinax Horen the Red Dragon, expect said titles to be returned to me with due haste and no compromise or there will be bloodshed and doggage.Signed by, Pertinax Horen "Dear Pertinax Horen" "I am Edmund Horen, son of Augustus, who was son of Horen V. I had come to this Empire at the behest of our family in Aeldin to steer the House Horen of this land back to a righteous path and so far I have done well in that regard. I have heard of you Pertinax Horen, you were the one who deserted the Empire and its people in its time of need and you think you have the right to judge me? Me who was not born until after the Exodus, me who does nothing but serve the people of Heartland, Raev and Waldanian. You come to me with these claims that I stole from you? Everything I own now, lands, titles and wealth is mine because I earned it. I got off a boat with nothing but my sister to protect and the clothes on my back, I may have a bloodline ancient and proud but I've never had anything. You come out of exile with a few allies of yours to try and threaten me. I am a Dragon descended from the Black Dragon just to refute your claim. In any case you cannot war against me because you simply have no claim to my titles or lands due to the fact I am the first title holder of these lands and thus only my children could have claim to such. As for claims of kinslaying, I did not even know you were in these lands, yet alone still alive as no one had informed me. Not to mention kinslaying implies I have murdered you and well since your writing this letter to me you are alive. Oh and one last question, what damned titles are 'rightfully' yours again? Next you'll claim the Imperial Crown because you think it is your right." "Further more I will not be blackmailed by some ineffectual, privileged, effete, soft-penis debutante. You wanna start a street fight with me, bring it on, but you're gonna be surprised by how ugly it gets. You don't even know my real name. I'm the ******* Lizard King." *signed* "Lord Edmund Horen" 22 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaying 26 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 -snip- A small folded letter is sent back in reply You say that I deserted the Empire? What of the Chivays, my brothers and my father? They are considered Saints and legends yet when I follow along on the same boat im called a deserter. You also ask for a street fight and I bloody welcome it although I ask not to be trialed when I hang your body from the front gates of Petrus.

Signed by, Pertinax Horen ; ) "You didn't ask for a trial, you asked for all my titles with no compromise or there would be and I quote 'Bloodshed and Doggage'. Now for the Exodus, my personal feelings on the Exodus is that I believe it was the greatest mistake mankind made and that anyone who took part in it caused the death of innocence. As for hanging my body from the front gate of Petrus, you are an affront to the Maker, you threaten murder of your kin and I merely threatened a fight, I think we can see who is really the one here who is willing to commit murder. " "To remind you that any war against the House of Horen for my landed titles is illegal and you can never hold my titles, as you simply don't have claim to them. You can expect many things, however I hold no titles that use to belong to you so I cannot give you what you want." *Signed* "Edmund Horen" 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalehart 1096 Share Posted November 3, 2014 The clash of metal on metal is heard as Peter stands nearby a makeshift forge, pounding the dents out of his charred helm. Seething quietly as he recalls the letter he had just read, he brings the hammer down with such force to puncture the metal entirely, "Bloodshed, eh? I'll welcome this arrogant fool to try." 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
