Xarkly 12618 Rep Farm Share Posted March 28, 2022 IS THIS THEIR PEACE? KRUSAE ZWY KONGZEM Issued by the CROWN On this 20th day of Tov and Yermey of 418 E.S. Spoiler VA EDLERVIK I ALMARIS In my youth, I looked forward to one day sharing the mantle of humanity with our heartlander brethren. There is no denying my forebears held little love for the Orenians, for reasons both substantiated and invented. On the foundations of their distrust and grudges, I hoped to one day restore what was lost. My tutor took me to Providence as a boy; I played chess with the Imperials; an Imperial girl was my first true friend as a child. That, however, is now gone forever. Tell me, Oren. How many of your guest-rights will be broken, your honour decimated, in pursuit of broken pride and to placate rabid mercenaries? How many of your own people will you watch get cut down at court with no justice? How many times will you see attempted murder and assault pardoned, under the banner of patriotism? How many more tens of thousands of mina will be drained for unneeded land? Edlervik i Almaris, they think to say they have offered us peace. When the Dwarves declared their grudge against Philip the Fiddler settled, the anathema renewed the conflict with unmeetable demands. Is this their peace? On a whim, an attempt was made on the life of the High Pontiff to install a puppet; a schism that fell apart within a Saint’s night. Is this their peace? Josephine Tuvyic was murdered, hacked apart without last rights by the anathema, merely for who her mother was. Is this their peace? While selling grain to the poor in Sedan, Ser Erwin Bishop and Lord Sigmar Mondblume were captured and hanged without last rites. Is this their peace? Ser Abraham Othan was shot while guarding the Karosgrad gates without any provocation, while the Lady Laurentina Helvets was, at that very moment, welcomed as a guest in Haeseni walls. Is this their peace? When the anathema was likewise welcomed in Karosgrad and treated as a guest, the Haeseni party were slaughtered as guests on the lands of Archisdorf by Imperial soldiers. IS THIS THEIR PEACE? When the anathema demanded the Grand Kingdom of Urguan sacrifice their lands to the very soldiers who were applauded for their massacre, the anathema termed this a fair compromise. IS. THIS. THEIR. PEACE? Men and women of Oren, who shall bear the burden of this great and terrible final offensive - the Kongzem of Haense will always welcome you as a fellow Descendant. It shall always welcome you as a friend around our fire. No matter the outcome of this war, no matter the trials we see during it, we will continue to show kindness and mercy upon the common Orenian who is forced to pay this terrible price for mercenaries -- as we showed Laurentina Helvets, as we showed the House de Rosius, and as we showed the Empress herself. We know we will call you friend again, once this age of darkness has passed. Your leaders need only pull their heads out of their arses. IV JOVEO MAAN His Royal Majesty SIGISMUND III by the Grace of Godan, King of Hanseti and Ruska, Grand Hetman of the Army, Prince of Bihar, Dules, Lahy, Muldav, Solvesborg, Slesvik and Ulgaard, Duke of Carnatia and Vanaheim, Margrave of Korstadt, Rothswald and Vasiland, Count of Alban, Alimar, Baranya, Graiswald, Karikhov, Karovia, Kaunas, Kavat, Kovachgrad, Kvasz, Markev, Nenzing, Torun, and Toruv, Viscount of Varna, Baron of Esenstadt, Kraken’s Watch, Kralta, Krepost, Lorentz, Rytsburg, Thurant, Venzia and Astfield, Lord of the Westfolk, Fidei Defensor, Protector of the Highlanders, etcetera. 102 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milenkhov 4522 Share Posted March 28, 2022 He who bore the plated embrace derived from the haeseni-hegemon breathed a deep sigh. His gaze was caught absort within the scripture he was delivered within the Nikirala- Lucien, the renowned swordsman, the commendable duelist that had favored honour to avoid the detriment of a core chivalric value recalled the combat in which he issued triumph against the stalwart Champion of the Brotherhood. As he reigned with his blade, there was PEACE. As he offered his hand to the fallen one, there was PEACE. As the entourage cheered, and prepared for the departure, PEACE NO MORE. No matter. The Prince that was promised waved his farewell, as the combined efforts of Haense and honourable combatants from the very soil in which he fought were ravaged and slashed by the Brotherhood. Lucien managed to swing, bob-and-weave his chance away from the perils of towering men of great skill that wished his ultimately death. They did not know who that once boy, under the guise of the Marian Retinue's plating was. For them, he was simply another foe, another body to the tally. Yet it was all known by those who advanced upon compromise of honour. He was the Prince of Savoy; Lucien the PEACEMAKER. Upon his arrival, the bloodied, battered and bruised Prince was welcomed with open arms by the surviving party of Haeseni-folk that protected his arrival whilst men from the Aurelian Brotherhood saught to trample him with their mares. He met with his childhood friend, his brother from another mother; Karl Sigmar. "Woe to the usurpers of peace, woe to the kindred of malevolent deeds." "Vy have lived." "Honour reigns, and GOD embraces my watch." "They have enacted terrible betrayals." "And so they will see. In the nearing, the setting Sun above." "What of vyr people?" "I am but a simple man, servant of honour and humanity. I wish not for further danger." "Vy are commendable." "I am but one, I am no army, but he who wishes to end the ire and hatred from those who had caused harm." And so Lucien offered a bloodied arm to Karl, the pair nodded. Their friendship had been untainted, unbeleagued by any thought or fear. Like when they were kids, toddlers - the future was dark, stranged. But so long as there was hope and companionship, honour would reign in the Savoyardling's visage. "For peace, for honour." 25 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erictafoya 2309 Share Posted March 28, 2022 In his lonely and quiet study, Andrik was reading the annual Hearsay of Haense, and tossed it as he’d found it to be bland. Not long after, a more interesting piece written by his own brother caught his eye. Andrik sipped his evening tea as he relaxed on his chair. “Finally some good ******* drama” 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramon 3965 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Tylos II sighed as his Secretariat brought him word of yet another battle to come. It bothered him that two Canonist nations would now once more raise up arms against eachother, albeit that deep down he knew it had been the fault of the Anathema for denying proper terms of peace time and time again. He wondered if perhaps their pride would be their downfall. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

garentoft 8353 Share Posted March 28, 2022 "I have thought long, and I have thought hard," stated the Lord Palatine. He did not reach a conclusion to his statement, nevertheless, he proceeded to, a couple of minutes later, begin ranting to three of his daughter (specifically Isabel, Saoirse, and Eileen) about how he spent much of his time in his childhood in Providence, and how he yearned to hopefully visit again in his lifetime. @sarahbarah @Toffee @lalosia 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"We have something they do niet. They fight for bloodshed, but we fight for salvation - Godan will see to it that their gilded walls are coated crimson with blood." 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
