GloriaPreussens 798 Share Posted February 24, 2016 The crowning day of the man known as John Godfrey was quiet, as was that of his brother John II. In the hall of Vandoria’s capital, not more than two dozen sat at their tables and watched as John Godfrey and John Sigismund strode forth to the hall, giving a knowing look to each other before the latter took his spot at the front of the hall, flanked by ever loyal guards. John Godfrey, flanked by a dark armored guard and the Bishop of Brelus Noah Weezer ascended to the base of the throne where the would be King knelt, the various lords and courtiers of Oren and Vandoria who had been invited, looked onwards with smiles and nods of approval. As the young man of twenty-three knelt, so did the spectacled bishop recite the following: “John Godfrey Horen - do you swear in the sight of the Creator, GOD most high, and his people to uphold the laws of Vandoria and the Faith?.” “I do swear.”“John Godfrey Horen- do you swear to forever protect the people of Vandoria, until your dying breath be it in battle or peace?”“I do swear.”“John Godfrey Horen - do you swear to never falter in your conviction and fervour for the word of GOD, to uphold His word and Church?”“I do swear.”“Then let thy hand be strengthened, and your right hand exalted. Let justice and judgement be the marks of thy reign and mercy and truth be held. ”Noah rested the crown upon its due mantle and thus spoke“We name you John Godfrey I, King of Vandoria.”Henceforth a loud ovation erupted from those present, wide smiles and happy voices murmuring in approval, sure that this man would lead them to a bright future. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"How about the people of Vandoria? And wasn't you're name 'Godfrey Krinford, or can you just change names to anything you like to make a false king proclaimed by piece of paper written by Nafis' assassin." asks Felix Fitch. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heff 2460 Share Posted February 24, 2016 28 minutes ago, Adam_barnett said: "Is he the Emperors blood-brother? This official doccuments of nobility within Oren says otherwise. Regardless, this 'King' made a holy vow to protect Oren. What good is that when he is ruling Vandoria, not Oren. He has not vowed to protect the people of Vandoria so why should the people of Vandoria want to be lead by somebody who does not wish to protect them?" "An outsider shouldn't be questioning human culture. By blood-brother, it is clearly by definition a natural born brother, half-brother if you will. Perhaps it was a mistake by the Bishop Noah in his speech, as said Bishop has spent his whole life in the Empire of Oren. If you think to call this man an assassin, do so to his face not behind the cover of mask or pen. It is common knowledge the two, Nafis and this new King, forged your now peaceful nation from a trivial, chaotic state. They worked together, ruled together. You are a weak man if you think to leap upon the mistake of a simple Bishop to draw your reasons that this man is a false-ruler." James retorts via public letter, assuming this anomynous poster is doing so as well. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archbishop 1784 Share Posted February 24, 2016 "Perhaps it is a mistake but it is a vow to the creator. He has not vowed to protect the people he is meant to be ruling. Never did I call him an assassin, though I called his rule illegitimate. The main reason in doing this is because after Nafis died a public proclamation as created and hung everywhere. This 'proclamation' called Godfrey de Krinford the new ruler of Vandoria. Yet this has no signature or anything to prove this is from the fallen leader, Nafis. Anybody could of created that. Just another ruse by Oren to control more Nations in fear they will turn on Oren, as their vassals seem to be doing as we speak. You speak of Nafis and this King pulling us out of war. But what has Godfrey actually done for Vandoria? Nothing. He has not forged anything just merely came out of the shadows and claimed himself to be the King of Vandoria, with nothing but a piece of paper. This letter actually." “To the people of Vandoria,It is with great sadness that we deliver the news of the death of the Lord Protector Nafis Yar. A victim of a proclaimed jihad in the name of “Faiz the Incompetent”. The assailant remains at large. As per the law of Vandoria, Lord Constable Darius de Denesle is summoned to Ard Ghorrock to become Lord Regent until a new ruler is picked and last minute affairs are handled. It is at the request of the late Lord Protector’s Will that within the next two Saint’s Days upon his death that Lord Godfrey de Krinford is made the next Lord Protector and the fourth Vandalore and reigning. As for a king, Nafis has picked LEOPOLD OF MARNA to be crowned King of Vandoria. Until he is 16 years of age when he shall be fit to rule as sole ruler of Vandoria, it is requested that Lord Godfrey de Krinford mentor the young King until said age. When Leopold is 16 years of age and has learned the Vander Ideology, he is to be made the fifth Vandalore and reigning. Should Leopold die before he is with child or at his own wish, Lord Godfrey de Krinford will be the designated heir.” "There are many things that show this letter is fake. One because it says who his assailant is, which is aparently Faiz. But how could a letter be written by Nafis pre-death? How would he know of his killer before being killed? He wouldn't. Besides there is no signature. Just because a letter appears after Nafis' death does not make it from him, though being from him would be impossible as he is now dead. If the new Emperor of Oren would die and I put an unsigned poster around Felsen would that make me emperor or put me high in position? No it would not. Neither should this." says Felix Fitch.

Vrarrdata 205 Share Posted February 24, 2016 2 hours ago, Imam Faiz Kharadeen said: Ashruf Kaneen grunts as he shakes his head in disapproval, speaking out aloud. "I serve the Sultan and only the Sultan." The Amir would place a hand on the Qalasheen's shoulder. "Well said my brother.""This man may be a king, however, We are not his servants. I serve the Sultan and only the Sultan." The tired Qalasheen man would return to his abode, proudly gazing at the majestic Khalestine flag, flying proudly in his garden. May 'The Creator' guide us in these times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
