Jakesimonson 691 Share Posted May 14, 2017 The Akovian Opinion 4th of Sun’s smile, 1611 “Courlanda Delanda Est” has become the new battle cry of House Ruthern. House Ruthern the great House who refused to pay 7,000 minas whose honor would not allow it. Where was this honor when the House Ruthern stabbed their King, Marius Barbanov in the back as they saw the war turn out of their favor? Where was this honor when they slaughtered the entirety of the Roswell family? Where was this honor when drew their weapons in the throne room of the King Joseph Alexander Staunton, a man who they swore their loyalty to? This House Ruthern is not honorable, they are nothing more than the mere rat. They will do anything for their own survival. They will do anything to fill their stomachs for another day. This House Ruthern holds no moral standard, their conscience remains silent as they commit heinous crimes with no remorse. These men are not noble, they are not trustworthy. They deserve nothing more than to be six feet under the ground. As their plans to expand their power fail, they attempt to lie. House Ruthern refuses to accept the adequate punishment presented to them. The lies spit from the mouths of the elders of the House seem as if the Lord Joren has penned them himself. These elders of Ruthern hold no intelligence, no loyalty. The only thing has kept them alive for this long is their rat like nature. It pains me to condemn this young Lord Joren Ruthern, who has been groomed and manipulated by his uncles. It pains me this young Lord must lose his future, as his uncles poison his young mind. House Ruthern was once a honorable house, back when the Rutherns ruled over the island nation of Valence in Anthos, however these days are long past. House Ruthern speak as if they won their rebellion, a lie far from the truth. House Ruthern will be crushed, yet I pray that they see the foolish of their actions. I pray that no more blood shall be spilt in the North. I pray for them to see the light. Signed, HIS GRACE, Franz-Josef Kovachev, Grand Duke of Akovia, Duke of Carnatia, Count of Kovachgrad, Karovia, Istria, Vsevograd, Baron of Vsenk, Godansk, Laval, Warden of the North Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iris1612 1780 Share Posted May 14, 2017 "Here see the noble Duke of Akovia, who would justify the slaughter of an innocent eight year old child for refusing to pay those 7,000 mina. We did a service to you and your Kingdom by removing a traitor lord and you repayed us with threats and ultimatums. Did the men of House Ruthern rebel then? No, because we know honor and loyalty. We gave in to your demands, regardless of how egregious and false they might be, all in the name of peace. And then you rejected it, still seeking more. We called for a meeting because you would have preferred just to kill us and be done with it. How foolish we were to assume your honor. So I ask you this, you spineless, gutless, cowardly RAT of a man--how could you EVER justify the murder of a child over the loss of 7,000 mina? Your letter is both false, degrading, and slanderous. House Roswell was never "slaughtered" in fact we had not ever killed a SINGLE Roswell. You claimed that we had murdered Edward Roswell but he is quite obviously alive and well. We had exiled him, and now he has returned. You push a lying and craven narrative by insisting that we murdered him, when this is obviously and factually false, you incompetent sack of lard. Furthermore, I find your claim that we drew weapons on you first to be vile in its craven falsehood. It was your prince, Frederick Staunton-Baden, who drew his sword after we were labelled traitors by your snake of a king. This same Frederick Staunton-Baden who murdered Count Boris when he sought peace between Haense and Courland years prior. It's almost amusing that you're so cowardly and desperate for men you have to resort to petty lies to make your cause seem remotely just. You speak of our "heinous crimes" and our lack of honor. I ask you, what heinous crimes have we committed? We found a usurper lord who betrayed his Kingdom, confronted him, and he surrendered to us. There was never a crime committed by House Ruthern, you have continued to claim that while supplying no evidence of one occurring. Another absurd slander by the Kovachev pretender. Your supposed prayers disgust me. You pray that no more blood shall be spilt in the north? You started this war, coward. How could you ever claim to want peace, an end to this conflict, when you begun it by murdering a child? You truly are a revolting and perverse man. I wonder how much you'll be able to lie and slander us when your head is on a pike?" 1 minute ago, Buddér said: "The Rutherns started this war , and we will end it" "You're a ******* idiot" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andustar 4143 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Viktor Kovachev would shake his head in disgust. "First of all, House Ruthern was fully willing to settle for peace, they had already made a large reparation, Courland's greed in the situation resulted in the loss of some of their most powerful vassals. Second, Victor Alric Ruthern, the one who turned his back on Haense is dead and during that war the line of Ailred Ruthern stayed loyal to the crown until the end, Ruthern did not turn its back on Marius especially when his wife was in fact a Ruthern. Thirdly, Ruthern engaged the Roswell based on their knowledge that Edward had committed crimes against the Kingdom of Courland, they also acted entirely within the law of the Crown until being unjustly called out over a law that didn't exist. This blatant writhing is nothing but an attempt to disgrace the name of a House that has many times upheld its honourable status. I'd only wish this 'Archduke' could see that before siding with these Staunton cravens." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did not say that you could pick and choose which terms you wanted. We did not say that you could pick one or two, we asked generously that they accept all of the terms. All The Rutherens were losing out on was a mere 7,000 minas for their crimes. We gave them several opportunities to accept this offer and to move on from this event yet they refused.
