THE SACRED FLAME FOR A SISTER NOW LOST

 

It is with great sorrow and solidarity that the brothers Helvets and the remainder of their kin invite all those of the Commonwealth to honour their departed sister; the Princess Arianne Renée Helvets, first-born daughter to the late King of Kaedrin Adrian I. After a week’s long expedition unto the lands pillaged and plagued by the sea-peoples moored upon the northern shore it was with great trepidation that the remains of their beloved sister were recovered from a lone and gruesome fate. Else-wise left for the maggots; beneath the earth without use of even a simple wooden casket. It was there in this place marked by a simple tombstone from which she had therefore been recovered; the forest nearby torched to extinction and the soil muddied and prone to degradation. Under guard of the Imperial Garrison all Provincial residents are invited to attend the ceremony which will be held at the Palace of Varoche, inside the small Chapel to St. Peter. There she will be put to rest, in accordance with the wishes of her family and with all the honours due her by Rhoswenii tradition. By the words of loved ones and upon a sacred flame to lift her soul from earth to the heavens above. 

 

The late Princess Helvets was unerringly kind and charitable, the model of a Rhoswenii women in all aspects. Sent to the Haeseni Court and betrothed to a King the marriage was not to be, and so she chose to remain and lay down her life in defense of that Kingdom, the mistake of a rushed burial on the field of battle now finally able to be rectified and reversed by GOD’s good grace. Her spirit made ascendant via the safe passage guaranteed by the pious people of her home country, in the shadow of Saint Catherine’s holy bosom.

 

Held in highest regard and is survived by the three brothers of Helvets, Henry Frederick, Robert Castor, and Richard Victor, as well as her youngest sister Margaret and their children, who will never forget their blessed sibling.

The King of Haense had set his gaze upon this document procured for him by a subordinate of his, a look of disgust spreading upon his face as he came to terms with this information; Arianne’s desecration. “Kaedrini degeneracy at its finest.” he scoffed, crumpling the paper into a ball. “To go scrounging about in my royal forests and digging up her body - which we laid to rest in God’s own sight, in the land that she loved, swore to defend.” 

[ReveredOwl 5639]

“Those who desecrate graves ought to be punished, alas the remnants of the Pruvian bloc will prevent anything from happening and the Curia will simply turn their eyes away and feign ignorance.” said Boniface.

[Zaerie 3747]

Queen Viktoria, for once, would be shocked. “They desecrated her grave?!” she’d look over Sigismund’s shoulder, as she read it. “Disgusting! How shameful. The woman defended me, our people, and our lands, and they’d rather come and dig up a rotting corpse and dishonour her resting place for some fancy skravi event?” She would look from the paper, wiping her face, “Disgusting, absolutely disgusting.”

[MikoMonster 1396]

Princess Amelya Valeriya gasps as she dismounts her horse, having ridden to the burial site upon reading the missive. She draws a hand to her mouth as she looks over the desecrated grave of the woman who had died defending her. The grave she had dug herself to lay the Helvetti woman peacefully to rest, lay churned and ruined. “What putrid, rancid people. To dig up one from their final resting place is an act against Godan himself. Lady Arianne was a woman of Haense, this will not go unpunished.” The young woman cursed under her breath, laying a lone flower across the headstone that was now knocked askew. “Requiescat en pasce.” she murmured, “We’ll see this injustice solved.”

“Lady Arianna Grande will be avenged.” The Tarcharman swears upon his heart after hearing the news.

[TheNunnery 1853]

Sabrina Halcourt shouted out in anger in Auvergnian. “Ces gens horribles! Seront-ils damnés en enfer!” After making her loud statment in her room she’d additionally say. “How dare these people do this, she has been laid to rest and they think because of blood or relations they may rest her body? No it is wrong she was laid to rest! In the ground! Selfish bastards! Such a sinful action I swear! This woman fought bravely! And you disrepsct her resting place! You selfish Kaedrini! Shame on you!” As she’d finish her last comment, the lady would sip her morning tea in a rage, after hearing the terrible news.

[Callistus 989]

A scorned and outcast Ruberni heard of the dispute that now festers among Kaedrin and the tyrants of Haense, deigning to mock this incident with great impunity (for he settles presently at foreign land).

 

“Did I not tell you, Sullivan? Observe! See for yourself the very fabric of degenerates who insolently scorn an act of kindness in this ludicrous facade of 'scruples' and morality. And no small wonder! The earth itself vow against this pretense, this fickle falsehood of theirs.”

. . .

“They are fiends, the devil’s very henchmen. Now I am sure of it.”

[Drew2_dude 2636]

“Hm, Ah well.” Sigmar Baruch would shrug wondering what the fuss was about, only remembering the girl as the remnants of the vesnians who betrayed Haense in the Two Emperors and who harbored a Devilish militant group that attacked him and his cousin Erich Stafyr on multiple occasions.

Richard Helvets prays most piously in the Chapel at Varoche, the dear Bishop of Ves in his company as the remains are consecrated before the coming traditions. As he does this he imagines the sheer horror which might have befallen his sister’s remains if they had remained casket-less in a shallow ill-prepared grave, buried without the proper rite, nor any true kin informed soon enough of her demise to attend the ceremony.

 

He then recalls the remorseful expedition he embarked on so long ago to rescue his dearest sister, disgusted himself by the treatment of her remains by a dumbstruck and brainless people. Upon the high ground of St. Catherine did she belong, far away from the dangers of the lowlands, and from the plainly obvious risk that the sea-faring barbarians raiding and raping the coast of Haense had. There his sister would remain safe under the mountain, as she always should have been.

He remembered his long trek, with little else to indicate location save the vague whispers of his newly acquainted niece whom shared their delusional ideal of death. Indeed all he had wanted was to see his sister one last time. The only figure he had in his youth, the second mother who had been sent as fodder for the wolves and bears to devour in their stupor. The downpour was the worst,the mud and excrement of recent battle as he dragged his ward de Falstaff through the leagues of foreign territory to find his forgotten kin. In the end they found her, buried too among-st the shite, a section of the forest behind still up in flames despite the rain.

 

The oath he swore would be maintained, no longer would his family endure the constant dangers of the world at wide. They would all be at home, at peace in the land of their Father. Protected, able to live long lives, raise children and watch the crops from their window; see the rose of their country flourish and prosper.

 

Dearest fiend! The love I bear thee can afford, no better term than this: thou art a villain!

James II receives news of Lady Arianne’s exhumation and the subsequent controversy. He addresses the Curia, “Dispatch the Knight-Regent @Harald and the Auditor of the Tribunal @Porkgasm to investigate the matter.”

[MadOne 4945]

Osvald Barclay shrugs indifferently. "It is up to her family to decide where her final resting place is, for they shall be the principal mourners in the years to come. I don't see the fuss." He said to Alfred, his son as they conversed.
