TreeSmoothie 4901 Share Posted August 22, 2023 An avocado-toast eating man reeled at the news, slapping his knee with a ring-clad hand. He nearly choked on a glob of guac as he cackled, tears pricking his only eye. "Serves them right for that egregious letter!" John Augustus snickered. "Look at this, mi tesoro." He went to hand the letter over to Rhys, his golden grills shining in the lanternlight. @Nilyeet 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazedpudding 2125 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Irena Kortrevich resolves herself to work harder than any Kortrevich before her. Josefina Barclay sighs softly, stroking a finger across a small frame, holding a familiar portrait. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

marslol 672 Share Posted August 22, 2023 A witch of eld wanders the woods near the Haeseni walls, snatching up a discarded missive in front of her cabin.

Phersades 1165 Share Posted August 22, 2023 The soul of Ser Nikolai Mikhail flickered somewhere in his vessel. Should the news grace him, the spark would turn to a roaring flame. Who knows what it would mean. Klara Miray however pressed her lips thin as she read through the missive. She thought of the Bulls she once cared so deeply for, her thumb pushing around the ring that bore the house's sigil, a ring once fit for a queen. -------------------- 4 hours ago, marslol said: A witch of eld wanders the woods near the Haeseni walls, snatching up a discarded missive in front of her cabin.

"You don't think this is because of that dinner, do you?" @louislxix Nikolas examined the formal missive with a hint of suspicion in his eyes as he accepted it from his wife. The seasoned prince let out a sigh, his voice conveying a mixture of skepticism and contemplation, "I'd be inclined to believe that such weighty decisions are rarely influenced by isolated incidents. There's likely more to the story." Nonetheless, Nikolas couldn't help but ponder whether his recent clash with the Matriarch during that rather tense family dinner had played a role, particularly given the outcome of their duel. His brows furrowed slightly, a sign of his internal musings, as he considered the possibility of House Kortrevich nursing a grudge or seeking some form of payback. However, instead of fear, an almost eager gleam flickered in his gaze. If change was in the air and challenges were brewing, he wasn't one to shy away. The notion of confronting a potentially vengeful house only heightened his readiness for whatever might lie ahead. As his mind ventured back into history, he recalled a dispute from his youth, at the midst of night, many a year ago, where he stood victorious over a defeated Vladrick Kortrevich. Back then, Nikolas had worried that the wrath of a house might just befall him, leaving him hopeless in defense. But now he almost welcomed the thought, a glint of a smile touching his lips. For Nikolas, the prospect of a challenge and the intrigue of conflict were as alluring as ever, a fire that had only grown with time.— ✤ — 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

beetle 2761 Share Posted August 22, 2023 If she could, Esmée Gabrielle Kortrevich would be rolling over in her grave. Dimirti Kortrevich let out a gasp that nearly killed him. "Can't believe he would disgrace his mother like that! Ungrateful son! HE CARRIES THE SAME BLOOD AS US!" The old disgusted man couldn't be bothered anymore and went back to sleep, waiting for his own doom. And for the lost triplet somewhere in the lands of the swamp, read the missive with an eyeroll. "Stupid nobles," hissed Nika Kortrevich. "This is why I stole the hand!" 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
