__Stal27 262 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) AN OPEN LETTER TO JOHN AURELIAN Issued by the HOUSE OF BARCLAY On this 5th day of July and Piov of 419 ES To servant of the Anathema, John Aurelian of Novellen, Last month, during a conversation between Princess Klara Elizaveta, Lord Jakob Dimitry, Lady Sibylla Barclay and the Orenian ambassador to Haense, John Aurelian, an argument had broken out within the Palace of Haense. The quarrel that ensued had primarily stemmed from the ambassador himself, of which caused him to spew insults in the name of our revered princess, as well as to assault Sibylla Barclay, who had sought to prevent the assailant from escaping. We shall afford only a question to this Novellen; how far have you fallen? Have you no honour? As an ambassador to Haense, I am certain that you would have had some form of education on etiquette and the proper manners to conduct yourself whilst at the mercy of a nation's people who are actively in conflict with your own. In the years preceding this, our nation has offered and allowed for those of Orenian descent to take part within our social season. We have treated all as visitors, not as though they are of a nation that we are at war with. Despite our goodwill and hospitality, the likes of yourself will always exist; a dishonourable coward who desires to plague our nation. A shameful display, but one that should have been expected. John Aurelian, I implore you to find yourself at the doorstep of Haense, I implore the people of your nation to send this man with shame, for he is summoned to appear within our courts. If he shall not comply, then the men of our house will see with all means that he is delivered.

marslol 672 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Theodosya Cecilya Barclay blinked at the letter sent by her Deputy Ambassador - at first, pride filled her subtle smile to see the boy so passionate in his work which quickly devolved into appallment and disgust. "What a joke - why ist Siby constantly being picked on? And Klara? Someone 'ought to teach boys manner, this ist getting ridiculous." 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MapleSunflower 1078 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Within the confines of the Huntshill-Novellen estate, a certain raven-haired Countess seethed over the open letter. Hidden away from the world for years, Isabella Marie vas Ruthern Huntshill-Novellen practically frothed by the mouth in rage upon coming to realize what her kin was up to. Her father was dead. Her daughter was dead. And now her only son brought her unfathomable shame. How she deplored her children. The darkness of her inherited curse choking her mind further. The only light in her life… her husband and her grandson. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

satinkira 5995 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Indeed; this was the fellow who threatened Haelun'or in a meeting with Elesia, claiming that they were the 'most powerful nation in the world'. An elf hums, stamping and sending off a letter. How uninformed. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnsider 4542 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Gunter Barclay raised up his head up to Skies and let out a few curses. He shook his head; something to confess later. "This is why you don't associate with Anathema. Lie down with dogs. Wake up with fleas." 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Grand mama, why does Uncle John get up to so much trouble." The boy mused, a perfect angel he could cause no trouble. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
