Death of Ardennes

[Publius 4098]

”God preserve Illatia, God preserve the Heartlands”

Spoiler

 

 

Dusk had loomed over the Heartlander estates of Ardennes, and men in the company of Septimius Bracchus brought food before Summerhall as a commotion came into view. Quickly, these men readied their blades and entered to the sight of dead Illatian folks – one an old time friend of the Bracchi family, Marco d’Montelliano.

 

Beholding his body, the man remained with draped in despair, burying his old friend before his body could be dumped in the Baltas. There was little optimism in the man as he saw clearly now how much progress would be lost upon his people and ideals.

 

Soon the madness that the man witnessed, he read a series of decrees – the Margrave renounced his titles, and the vassals lost heart in his leadership. For all of the Chancellor’s work, nothing would be left to show for it.

 

Looking out towards the Goldfields, Septimius would simply lament. His Illatian brothers become kindred again, and he himself lost the prestige of his position and work. Saddling his horse, he rode to Carolustadt, unsure of his future and that of his people. Passing Adria, he saw a see of disheartened Heartlanders return to Belvitz.

A shout could be heard from the distant, “Ave Illatia!”

“Well. Atleast it’s not on my borders anymore..”

He frowned, this wasn’t the outcome anyone wanted, and he agreed.

A frown lined the lips of a young, ashen-haired adolescent. She exhaled profoundly, eyeing the uncompleted Ardennes solemnly. ”I truly wished for this to be completed- Perhaps mother would have liked it,”  She murmured, before beginning her journey to the city of Sutica.
