A Ludovar's Last Stand [PK]


Recommended Posts

Spoiler

 

 

Stepping into the fighting arena, the elderly Aleksandra Sofiya Ludovar prepared to retain her title as Grand Champion of Karosgrad. Despite the grays of her hair and the limp of her step, she remained a warrior at heart. Nevertheless, the terrible effects of age had taken a considerable toll on her. 

 

In the first round, she was set to fight the Lord Marshal. To the astonishment of the audience, the 87 year old Dame managed to secure a victory against the Marshal, albeit, barely.

 

In the second round, she was contested against the young and acclaimed warrior, Prince Lucien of Savoy–of whom she was no match. As their blades clashed, the Prince’s strength exceeded her own, causing her to stagger backward. Collapsing to the ground in coughs and gasps for air, her life flashed before her eyes.

 


 

Her cheerful youth in Johnstown; life was much simpler back then. The small, cozy keep surrounded by shacks with roofs of hay. The farm animals and their unbearable stench. Her friends who accompanied her on adventurous excursions. Her family who had always been there for her.

 

Her expedition around Arcas in her young adulthood. The people she had met; the sights she had seen. The lengthy travels down windy roads, accompanied by none but her horse. Peaceful, in a sense.

 

Her eventual and unexpectedly abrupt return to Haense upon hearing of the Inferi threat. Her travels to their hellscape to dispose of the creatures.

 

Her enlistment in the Haense Royal Army and her eventual promotion to Sergeant. The difficult duties she had to fulfill in her position; namely, the slaying of her own father when he drew a blade upon the Queen. The long-lasting fight against the trolls. The loss of both her arm and leg on an expedition to the trolls’ cavern; yet her persistence, even when all seemed lost. 

 

Her dedication as Kastellan of Settlement. The countless Haeseni newcomers she had assisted; the smiles she brought to their faces. Her eventual knighting as Dame of the Lily. 

 

Her short lived, though memorable time serving on the Aulic Council as High Seneschal. Her ultimate realization that she was a leader not with a pen, but with a sword. 

 

Her expedition to the Attenlund, disposing of the violent creatures which inhabited it.

 

Her return to Haense where she proved victorious in the Grand Champion Tournament; becoming the first woman and second ever to acquire the title Grand Champion of Karosgrad. 

 

The generations upon generations of Ludovars she saw grow, and her immense love for each and every one of her kin. The pride and joy she felt when the County of Otistadt had been returned to her House.

 

Then, all went black.

 


 

When she awoke some time later, she found herself surrounded by anxious medics, the King of Haense, plenty of unfamiliar, blurry faces, and her great-niece, Adele. The medics tried to assist the dying woman, and the King himself begged her to remain strong, but it was no use. After a long, joyful, fulfilling life, she was finally ready to pass on. Beckoning her kin forth, she used her remaining strength to utter her final words:

 

“Do niet forget me”

It's been a good run for Aleksandra and I figured it was time to put an end to her story. I've played this character for over a year and a half now, and I've had a blast every step of the way. Huge thanks to @Rudi@ColdestPepsi, and @MissToni, who gave me the opportunity to try out leadership for the first time. Additionally, I'm incredibly grateful to all of House Ludovar and the Haense community as a whole. It's been real o7

 

Here are some random screenshots I wanted to throw in. Enjoy.

Fionn Castaway had a smile on his face as he witnessed the aged woman enter the Seven Skies. He recalled the memories he had with her, his friend and predecessor as Seneschal, but none of it would matter now. What mattered is that now he could bother her for all time. "Welcome to Hell." he greeted her jokingly as he tossed a Carrion her way, one of many he had hoarded.

Adele Emma Ludovar lowers her head in respect for the accomplishments of her Great Aunt. "Ea... Ea will niet, Aedymamej, ea promise." She whispers, holding back a mournful sob. She had been very shaken by witnessing Aleksandra's death, and the responsibility and respect that had been given to her following the event had caught her off-guard.

"I will miss vy Aleksandra." The Elderly former Count of Otistadt, Kazimir would mutter to himself as he took a sip of Carrion Black, again in-front of a crackling fireplace in an undisclosed location. He would proceed to sign the Lorraine cross and remember the many fond times they had.

The count of Otistadt have just left the clinic when he heard of his great aunt's death.

His already pale face lost yet another shade. He waited a bit before showing his real emotion, staying strong beside his daughter.

When he finally got to his cold room in the top of the keep, Johann broke down. His only aunt who stayed with them, the only aunt who always lent a hand when he needed her... "Spasibo for everything... Vy will be remembered. Spasibo.." He muttered

Viktor Romstun scans over the missive with a small hum, crumbling and throwing it away without another thought.

The Elder-Hieromonk would hear of the new from a bird. Upon reading the letter the Aged Monk would lay the letter next to himself, taking his cane and standing up looking over the mountain on the outskirts of Louisville. His eyes set towards the north as they filled with tears "Aleks....you stubborn woman, why did vy have to keep fighting. Vy did inheirt Papej's fighting spirit but" he choke on his words" My vy find peace in the seven skies dear Sister. I will see vy someone" he'd finished before falling to his knee in sobs

      Stein's Final Moments
      Alone, that was the feeling he felt, as he laid on the table in the surgical room in the Hohkmat clinic. Fear made itself  known as well, as he was recently cured from vampirism in that very room. The fear only grew as the restraints seemed to get tighter and the room spinning. Two others made there way in, separate, and at different times. They were once friends, family even if it came down to it. But his actions caused them to forget him as someone good. Hour's passed by as Stein, now called Almer, laid there on the surgical table, waiting for his fate to be decided. The door creaked open and his restraints came loose, allowing himself to sit up. His fate had been decided, the only thing he could do, was make it painless. The choices were simple, die a painful death, or be put to sleep, feeling nothing. The decision was simple, as he took the Nightsap juice given to him.
       
      Before drinking, memories of his life flashed in his mind, memories of his childhood on his farm with his family, that he had forgotten so long ago. Now taking a drink of the juice, memories of his time in Reinmar, the friends he made that grew into a family outside of his original home on the farm. And as he slowly drifted away, his memories were of his new friends, now wishing him dead. The last image that made it's way to his mind was everyone he knew, gathered together. Almost like a final farewell, even though he did not deserve it. As his death drew near a tear rolled down his face, before his heart stopped, his limbs and body turning cold, and his image, slowly fading away, into the darkness, as he drew his very last breath.
       
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      OOC NOTE:
      Finally, after almost three months of playing as Stein/Njal/Almer, I have finally made the decision to pk him. This wasn't the ending I wanted for him, however this is the ending I am giving him. I am taking this time to thank everyone that was a part of his life, these past three months on the server have been a blast. Stein and myself have made a lot of friends that I hope to keep and play along side them with other characters I make. So for those reading this thank you and to anyone that knows, give a salute as "The Stone Fortress" has finally fallen.
       
      I will now take the time to thank those that have impacted Stein's life greatly @FunkehMelon @melonth @ickyNuN @confusedjester @Rocky_Wolf @SmothBM  @Irishmanmichael  and of course many more that I am sadly too lazy to actually search up and apologize for it. However though not everyone that has impacted Stein's life will be on here, I have not forgotten you and will never forget you. So thank you all for the fun three months, and I will see you all in my next lives <3!
