Not so long ago, my family rejoiced at the election of Fiodor as the High Pontiff, and a few days ago my promotion to Lord Commander of Savoy. Unfortunately, there are always worse days amidst the joy. These have just come over Savoy and her vassals again. Today I received the sad news of the death of our beloved Princess Catherine, peace be upon her soul, and of a plot by the Savoy Council. It would not be the best step if we allowed traitors to ruin what we have been building for over 20 years. Just as in the situation of the schism, which is still echoing, we must take a stand worthy of a noble family. We have sworn our friendship to the family of Ashford de Savoie, so we will stick to what we have promised and our swords shall be used for the good of their cause. If necessary, the forces of the Eagle's Watch will assist the allied armies in their fight against the traitors. In addition we extend a fraternal greeting to all the allied forces, in particular House Barclay von Freimark and House Barclay von Reinmar, as well as the Haense forces who have supported their brothers in faith in the face of danger not for the first time! 

 

We Jazlovieckis are a family of farmers, craftsmen and soldiers who value peace and honour. We firmly believe in the possibility of a peaceful solution to the conflict - but if a peaceful solution to the conflict is not possible, we should fight with honour and a chant on our lips just as our ancestors did in the War of the Two Emperors alongside our allies. We shall and will not rest until the enemy is driven out, and our southern land is at peace.

 

LONG LIVE PRINCE LUCIEN AURÉLE!

LONG LIVE OUR ALLIES!

DOWN WITH THE TRAITORS!

 

 

W Imię Boże,

His Lordship, Borys Jazloviecki, Count of Lvinsk, Lord Commander of Savoy, Marshal of The Eagle's Watch, Court Brewmaster of Savoy
