Of sheep and dragon

[Anderssn 1115]

 

Emperor of man, a title discriminated by men of false excellence and greed. These Emperors of sheep, presented before you one after another, chosen by no merit or testament of competence. Chosen by a supposed divine right to rule through an ancient name they claim their heritage to. Heritage of a bloodline so shrouded they cannot tell the difference of a dragon or sheep. This ancient name we associate with the unity of man, but a name which bare no weight or relevance in our modern society for there are no dragons left to rule them all. Now they dress sheep in wings and crown them to be presented before you as divine rulers and further disgrace their herd.

 

The kings of the highlander realms, you’ve allowed these sheep to rule over you, although they have no army you should fear, or allies to strongarm you with, you’ve bent the knee to these false dragons who come with nothing but a ancient name before you.

 

Your Royal Majesty, King Andrew III of Hanseti & Ruska, king of raev. You rule a proud people of highlander blood, of Tuvic descent you draw breath and your people you rule well, never should you bow to a heartland sheep.

Your Royal Majesty, Adrian I of House Helveti, King of Kaedreni a highlander folk. You command the strongest army of men, men drawn their heritage from Rosen Warriors no less, never should you bow to a sheep with no army at all.

Your Royal Majesty, Pierce I of House Devereux, king of Curonia. You rule a people who celebrate a rich highlander culture with elegance, of grandeur festives and songs with wine and cheerful nights, and the birthplace of my dearest, never should you bow to a sheep without a joyful soul.

 

No man without merit should rule over your kingdoms as Emperor. You rule your people and your country and you own your right to sovereignty and independence. Unification of man should not be manufactured by weightless title or the ancient name of a shrouded blood, or forced to knees by influence of a pretentious hydra with many heads. Instead you may seek to an agreement of equal cooperation between your realms and let no man tell you which sheep, snake or rat they wish to be crowned Emperor over mankind.

 

 

Brutus of Rubern

 

 

Brutus signed each letter and read them over for any mistakes he might have made before handing them over to the couriers. The letters would be taken to each palace of the highlander realms.

 

[TheIchorDruid 1986]

Winnie arches a brow whilst Brutus penned the missive, peering over his shoulder. "You write so small!" She huffed before traipsing off to resume her daily shenanigans. 

[Temp 2006]

A Kaedreni soldier squints at the missive, “I- Are they? Dissent? In the middle of Imperial land? What?”

[Reckless Banzai Screamer 15456]

“He’s not wrong about me kin,” Cardinal Saint Robert says to himself as he read over the missive. “But he’s wrong to spread dissent like this. Without the Imperium we’d be back in the dark ages again. Life’s just better united.”

A soft and gentle smile came upon Eloise’s lips as she read her fiancé’s letter. “My dear, Brutus.” She whispered softly into the cold winds of Curon.

Alaric would wonder if Norland were included in the “Highlander Realms”
