Lady Catherine Marie had made for the Huntshill estate not long before the end of the candidates debate, her baby twin boys pushed along in a pram as she went. As she made her was into the estate, a servant helped carry the babies to their cot in the Lady's bedroom. As she was tucking the little boys in, making sure no chill would reach them underneath the thick blankets, a servant burst into the room. "SShhhh" Catherine immediately became annoyed, hoping the loud noise would not wake the babies. "I am sorry m'lady, but there has been an incident... Lord John has-" she would not let the servant finish, running out of the room in her limping gait, tugging the servant along. Still she did not want to wake the babies, but her fear grew. In the halls she stopped, turning around and frantically waiting for the servant to finish. "T-there was the dinner after the d-debate m'lady" the poor servant seemed scared to say "The f-ferrymen... they came- He fought well. He fought but he perished at their blades" 

It made no difference whether in the halls or in the bedroom, the sound of the womans cries woke the babies and their own cries mixed in with hers. Her brother was dead, she had not been able to protect him, even when she knew she was not fit to. How many more? How many more of her family must die before it ends? This DAMN WAR has become so pointless, she thought. Her Grandfather, her elder sister, friends, loved ones. Now yet another room in this ever growing lonely manor was left empty. She could not bring herself to travel back to Providence for the funeral, she was in too much of a state of remorse.

@CanadaMattDespite what some in our family may think, I did like having you as my brother. there were ups and downs and many loop de loops, but I think I liked John the most out of any of your persona's I've interacted with. He really showed how well you've become at roleplaying. I'm legit really sad to see him go, but hopefully we can roleplay on different personas once more in the future!
