sneakybandit 1503 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2023 ON DWARVEN JUSTICE By the Authority and Will of the King of Norland Issued on, 12th Caedric’s Kindling, 462 FifAeSF (7/9/23) To the People of Sólheim, On the 8th of Caedric’s Kindling, within this fortnight, a dwarven party of six, led by Lord Justicar Thromdrick Irongut, entered the Capital City of Norland, Vjardengrad, seeking an audience with me. These Dwarves claimed to be ambassadors of the Grand King, Garedyn, and came under a flag of truce. I, seeing the chance to deescalate the situation and bring peace between our people, welcomed them in my audience chamber and heard them out. They sought out the truth of the punishment of Frostbeard thieves and slanderers to which I dutifully provided the facts of the matter, with all witnesses to account as well. Quickly the Dwarven party questioned my sovereign authority to deal justice to criminals. They questioned why the Sons of Urguan were not sent to Urguan to face justice through their own courts. I explained in the simplest of terms that the Grand King had refused to engage in diplomatic relations with my Kingdom and in doing so, refused to sign any sort of pact which would offer extradition. I informed the Lord Justicar of the Ireheart and Frostbeard Clans’ well known reputation as war-mongers and evasion of ANY law, be it within or without Urguan. At that moment, the Lord Justicar began to beg me to immediately sign an extradition treaty with the Grand King and that, to quote the Dwed himself, “The one who killed and maimed our Dwarves can be brought to trial in Urguan.” The Ruriksting assembled roared with anger upon his inflammatory statement, condemning me, King of Norland, to suffer Dwarven Law for enacting Norlandic Law against outlaws. When asked to clarify, so as to ensure the Dwarf was serious, rather than telling a famous Dwarven jest. Unfortunately he informed the Ruriksting that he was utterly serious and that the Grand Legion of Urguan will descend upon Vjardengrad so as to capture all Norlanders guilty of wronging Bakir Ireheart and the Frostbeard Clan. AND SO IT SHALL BE the wrongs and insults cast by the Grand King’s administration shall not be tolerated further. The Grand King’s administration SHALL deliver the following to the Kingdom of Norland: Deliver to the King of Norland a weregild of 100 mina. The Lord Justicar offers a public apology to the Sovereign King of Norland, making known his respect for the laws and sovereignty of the Kingdom of Norland. Our Will be known to all on the 12th Caedric’s Kindling, 462 FifAeSF, at Vjardengrad, Kingdom of Norland, BY THE BLOOD OF THE HERALD Balon Eiriksson Ruric, King of Norland, High Chieftain of the Rurikkid, Jarl of Vjardengrad, Defender of The Red Faith, Bulwark of the Norlandic People 42 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

_pr0fit 2945 Share Posted July 10, 2023 "Surely the dwarves do nay believe this?" Vykk furrows his brow, confused at the logic presented by the dwarven representative "Demands of the dwarves?" Vykk says reading the document "More reasonable then I would have imagined, in fact, they are beyond reasonable, surely Balon is a just and righteous man." 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ichigomaster98 643 Share Posted July 10, 2023 "Name, nation, country, allegiance, organization, clan, house, family, guild, ethnic group, region, religion, reason, and why?" Io asks the standard gate questions to a new arrival to the fortress capital city of Vanskgrad. "Do you have any weapons? No? You should buy some in the city for a reasonable price!" Io gestures down the street towards the stall of Paragon Vykk 'The Founder' Volaren, where many fine wares of various types can be purchased for a mina fee. "There's lots of bandits around lately, but they seem to mostly cry and run away, sometimes they leave a hand or two here, sometimes they leave more. Oh! I almost forgot to ask! What is your favorite color, favorite food, favorite drink, what is your ideal first date, do you think tacos are sandwiches- Oh, tacos? Well, everyone knows tacos! They are a Norlandic invention, it's a type of sandwich, just as any other sandwich." Io thinks a moment, nodding. "I think that's all! Watch out for the short ones who doodle green lipstick around their eyes, they're very loud and annoying, but they're not particularly dangerous." Io then allows the new friend entrance into the city. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
