Details of Incident:

While within Adria word had spread to some of our party that there was going to be an attempted coup against Josip Sarkozic during the Adrian Duma. I myself and several others were notified by the duke himself. Word spread and we quietly amassed a small force within the Ivanovich keep. Josip was being aided by Konyves, who was also aware of the potential coup. Konyves told us to wait 10 minutes before our group marched to where the Duma was being held, to find a large party of Indigo-clad bandits snuck outside the doors of the Duma! Upon our discovery of them, the Adrians inside the Duma came outside - Septimus and his retainers drawing their swords with the Indigo men, Josip and his men siding with our party. Combat promptly began, and our group used kite tactics to return back to the Ivanovich keep and fortify our position. Konyves then came up with the idea to open the gates to lure in the superior force. A portion of their force trickled in, and we shut it on them, killing a decent chunk of their force. They then amassed what remained of their force at our gates, only for us to trap a larger chunk of their force within and capture two of their leaders, then picking of the rest of our force. We sustained minimal casualties. After the fight we then returned home to Carolustadt with Septimus in tow to go on trial.

 

It was later determined by his Imperial Majesty that Septimius Bracchus was to be BLACKMARKED from the Order of the Red Dragon and banished to the Southern wastes. His quest of retribution shall be to acquire two heads from Red Vaeyl Captains. In addition, the Grand Knight of the Imperium Septimus ruled that Charles of Napier and Claudius Bracchus be BLACKMARKED from becoming squires until further notice.
