To Protect the Heartlands

[Harald 2875]

 

To Protect the Heartlands 

 

 

21th of Peter’s Glory of 123 B.A

The Heartlands once more erupts into war, as Ravenmire has forgone any hope for a peaceful resolution. The Kingdom of Balian has long held friendship with Aaun, the Treaty of Spires shall be upheld. We will not stand idle as a usurper claims the throne of Aaun and shatters the peace so many who died in the League war had fought for. 

 

Since its founding, Balian has held the storied and coveted title of Protector of the Heartlanders, not once has this title been treated as anything but a duty, our Crown and people have always raised blades in order to defend their fellow Heartlanders when they found themselves in war or any form of strife. Now as the Usurper Tiberias marches at the head of Ravenmire’s host to steal the throne of Aaun, Balian shall not forget its duty.

 

To the misguided people of Ravenmire, know that Tiberias leads you only to ruin with his greed for power. He shall use your realm as a husk, just as he has convinced your Sovereign. Thus now it is the duty of all Canonist to come in defense of our Holy Mother Church and the Crown of Aaun. only toss away once Aaun is his. Do not allow yourself to be led astray. Renounce the usurper, and seek peace through the Holy Church once more.

 

The Kingdom of Balian declares that it shall march North to defend their allies in the Heartlands.
 

 

Signed,

His Royal Majesty, Alexander II, by the Grace of GOD, King of Balian, Prince of Providence, Duke of Helena, Sunholdt and Lorraine, Count of Pompourelia and Kositz, Viscount of Eflen and Anatis, Baron of Renzfeld, Brucca, Valens, Malenos, Montcoure and Ciavola, Lord of Portoregne, Atrus and Monterosa, Warden of La Costa Rubinissima, Keeper of of St Lothars Hold, Prince of the Holy Orenian Empire, Protector of the Heartlanders and the South, etcetera

As the Legate of Balian frowned at such a declaration, the Count of San Adriano would've gritted his jaws and summoned a nearby servant. "Write down these words. House Temesch will march with our King and Country. Ave Balian, Long Live the King."

"My King, my Kingdom calls me." stated the Count of Salia, before looking to his wife, @Cheese"Let us hope that our children will never have to suffer war as we will have to Esfir." he'd state firmly, a look of concern on his face as the inevitable has come to pass, war never changes.

The High Keeper witnesses Alexander II get told to 'shut the **** up' by the princes of Númendil through her scrying orb, she is shocked.

 

Percy de Lyons witnessed, actually in person, the craven, pathetic Norlanders shelter the Veletzers and their ilk- after throwing what few bodies they had to their death during the war for the MIDlands. "Eh- they've been pathetic fighters since the fall of Dunharrow- if this totalitarian dictator wishes to throw heathen bodies into the flame, who am I to deny their death?" He quipped, glancing at his blade."Looks like we might get our revenge after their pathetic mewlings for peace- and their betrayal of the Covenant."

[Kursion 463]

Young Cedric, a fervent soldier of the Kingdom of Aaun, who attended the meeting as part of the kingdom's delegation alongside His Majesty Prince Godwin, was outraged by the attitude of some delegations, especially that of Ravenmire. "Some delegations present blamed the whole of Aaun for alleged crimes that have already been paid for by His Majesty. King Charles and his royal wife - did not wish for reconciliation, but to punish an entire kingdom for the actions of a few individuals - thus going against the church itself." He would condemn the words of Tiberias and his delegation and sigh with great disappointment at their actions.

 

Cedric would be pleased by the support of some delegations, which proved to be true servants of GOD. "I am glad to see at least that, despite the differences, there are authentic canonist nations. I hope that whatever happens, faith unites us again. The Kingdom of Aaun and its people are forever in debt with our friends in Balian"
 

 

"It has been proven which nations seek peace and which seek war" the young Cedric would say.

Asbjorn Carthaig keels over, as yet another war begins. But he takes up not arms with Haense in the past, but with the Raev he once defeated.
