A tough but right decision...

To His Imperial Majesty, Godfrey III,

 

Following a long time in solitude and in deep thought, I have made a difficult decision; one I hope my young brother will follow suit with. I, Owyn de Ravensbourg of House Marna, brother of James de Ravensbourg of House Marna, son of the late Jacob Horen-Marna swear fealty to his Imperial Majesty Godfrey III, of House Horen, in perpetuity.

 

A note to my young brother James,

 

I wish not for our good relations to be sullied because of this decision. The past violence and bloodshed of the conflict between Imperium Renatum and Oren was where we were led astray, if we are to do the right thing, the differences with the Empire should be solved civilly –– not with the bloodshed of innocent lives and hiding in the shadows.

 

Signed,

Owyn de Ravensbourg of House Marna
