The Hearsay of Hanseti-Ruska

Edition XI

Tov ag Yermey, 418 ES

 


 

While the city remains swarmed with gossip and drama, our little birdies have been sending us letters and spreading their wings inconspicuously. Many a story has passed by during these long and cold Haeseni months, though never forget that this author will always be here to scratch our readers’ itch with our own secret gossip and scandal report.

 


 

THE MATRILINEAL MAIDEN

~

Now, I’d give out a penny to any who remembers the new Amador patriarch’s wedding -- or any who have seen him since! Baron Filip Amador has simply withdrawn himself from society. In a flurry of newlywed bliss? Perhaps. Their wedding caused ripples of concern amongst the guests present, as the new Amador-Consort, Princess Petyrsa Henrietta, took it upon herself to announce that she would not take the name Amador at the very altar. Her husband, oblivious, was taken quite by surprise. This reluctance to associate with Amador surely translates to her reluctance to integrate in the Haeseni lifestyle, and her attempts to lead Lord Filip astray are evident. The Amador patriarch would surely be wise to read over their marriage contract with a scrupulous eye… to assure nothing else was foregone in their discussions. Perhaps a matrilineal marriage is marked in small print, or other swindling clauses!  

 

BESTED BARCLAYS & VENERATED VYRONOVS

~

It would seem the House of Vyronov has pulled itself from its death throes, for a few promising young upstarts have thrust themselves into the Haeseni scene. The young Lukas, accompanied by Lord Eugen Barclay, faced off against a gaggle of foreign fiends seeking to steal His Majesty’s subjects for their own lord. In the square of Karosgrad they fought many duels in quick succession, faltering only once in the face of overwhelming odds. Such a display of gallantry from the Vyronov, noble of heart, and the Barclay, noble of blood, shall surely win over the ladies of the Lifstala. If they continue on this path, this author sees many-a-maiden swooning in the near future!

 

THE LILY AND DUMB-FROG KNIGHT

~

While this latest debacle at His Majesty’s court arose once more from the deeds of one Princess Klara Elizaveta, this author sees no need to thrash her further, for there are others more deserving. Is it not strange how time and time again the knights of our beloved Hanseti-Ruska simply do… Nothing? Is it not the duty of a knight to defend the honour of his liege, and by extension the honour of his line? I should certainly say it is, yet despite their presence in the throne room as the young Princess was humiliated, none did so much as raise their voice. Is it cowardice? Ineptitude? Why, oh gallant knights, did you allow the Princess to be denied her entry to the order of Queen Maya and the Lily? Why did you allow mere Baronial peers to besmirch her name, and the name of our King? Even though Princess Klara may have been deserving of the criticism she received, the display put on by the Crow Knights was most despicable. For shame, Sers and Dames. How far the order has fallen when a gossipmonger holds more respect for the Barbanov name than those sworn by oath to uphold it. 

 

Barclay, Morovar, Mondblume; It is of no matter. Do not spit on the honour of your liege. Raise your voices and your blades, lest you continue to bring shame to our kingdom! This author would like to note, as well, that the Knight Paramount himself was present for both the insults suffered by Princess Klara and the assault of Lady Elizaveta Ulyana, and in both cases he did nothing -- simply outrageous! Perhaps His Majesty was wrong to hand off the reins so soon. 

 

A NIGHT OF DEBAUCHERY

~

The hive of degeneracy that is Elysium was in for quite the surprise when the young Prince Josef Frederik and his entourage turned up at their gates. My birdies tell me the Prince was joined by Lord Mikhail var Ruthern, Lord Matyas Isaak, Mister Lukas Vyronov, and none other than the Grand Prince, Karl Sigmar himself! What business could this troupe of gentlemen have in Elysium, you might ask. Women, of course! It would seem these Lords sought to shoot their shot with the exotic ladies of those lands, with varying degrees of success. It would seem the future King was the greatest hit with the fairer sex, for he was seen speaking to an Elysian Princess well into the night. Said Princess seemed to be stricken with some form of plague, with spotted and blotchy skin. Though, she must make up for her strange appearance through other means, for His Serene Highness had to defend his catch from Elysian suitors through his quick wit and sharp tongue alone. The other Prince, Josef, who it should be noted was the leader of this group, seemed to be, for a lack of a better word, maidenless for the night. Instead, the Prince drowned his sorrows at the tavern. Not a good look, especially so soon before the Lifstala. 

 

With the Barbanovs out of the way, this author is surprised to report that the mad Baron of Rostig, Mikhail var Ruthern, seemed somewhat popular with the ladies of Elysium when contrasted to his peers. He was spotted chatting incessantly with an Elysian noblewoman in the square! Quite surprising for the boy who naught more than two Saint’s Weeks ago struck the Lady Margrait Baruch in a fit of rage. This was also the case for one Matyas of Alban, who was given a tour of the Elysian lands by what, by all reports, was a rather handsome young woman. Finally, we come to mister Vyronov, who much like Prince Josef, found himself maidenless for the duration of the outing. Though, this author suggests such a gallant young man is merely saving himself for the Lifstala and for a proper Haeseni woman. Regardless, ladies. These are the men to keep an eye on, the prize catches of the Lifstala! Get to it! 

 


 

Rest assured, dearest reader, that your Hearsay will have their pen lifted and ready to scrawl throughout this upcoming Haeseni Season. This issue, I leave a warning to those showcasing themselves at such a splendid affair. There is to be no secrets between us. Our eyes will be watching, observing, each and every one of you. This, I can promise.

 


 

Ink put onto parchment, where the hands shakily dismantle the deception in our court. As with previous editions, my address is afforded.

"Ea did niet hear or know if any insults directed to Prinzenas Klara for whoever spewed them would spew no longer." remarked Ser Walton.

"Whoever suggests the Crow Knights should've started suppressing folk who had valid qualms with the Princess, wishes for tyranny and the elimination of opponents as the foul, oppressive and despotic King Henrik II, architect of the Red Diet... furthermore, perhaps the Knights shouldn't be held responsible for the ridiculous and petty behaviour of the nobility and royalty, who should, by GOD, know better!" bishop viktor grumbles

Eugen Barclay would've read through another piece of the Hearsay's work, "Well.. this Ist a surprise, but Danke for the compliments nontheless." The boy would murmur to himself as his eyes narrowed onto the piece, his face plagued with surprise, he would soon emit a thin grin, folding the parchment neatly before setting off on his journey to find Lukas and show him. @Mio
