THE PEACE

[Timer 1978]

 

ISSUED BY THE PRINCE IN REINMAR 

In the year of our Lord, 2023

 

 

 

ÖHNE UND TÖCHTER VON REINMAR,

GATHER HEED, sons and daughters of Reinmar, and lend ear to the words of your Chieftain, Erwin. Let it be known across the forests and rivers, across the fields we have trod and the fires we have lit, that I write these words not as a proud man, nor as one who seeks pity, but as a man who has gazed upon his reflection and found it wanting. I write now not to command, but to confess. Not to rally, but to repent.

 

I as your Chieftain have led you astray from the path of righteousness and that of our forebearers. For this, I have undertaken penance, that I might cleanse my soul before the sons of Horen, and before GOD Himself.

 

With the sundering and defeat of the Covenant, a new age begins for the sons of Horen. With this new age, the Tribe of Theoderic and Gelimar shall return to the lands of our ancestors, the Franklands and the Langkette Pass. We return to these old lands to serve the King of Burgundy as Wardens of the Franklands and guardians of the Langkette.  Let it be known to all that the tribe shall hold fast to this charge, guarding those lands as our ancestors once did. In my new station as a vassal of Tiberias of Burgundy, I shall style the lands of our ancestors as the Principality of Reinmar and remain the Prince in Reinmar like my grandfathers before me.

Let no man say we return broken, for we return as sons and daughters of the soil, bound by oath and honor.

I. The penance offered to the High Chief of Reinmar shall be acknowledged as served by all signatories.

 

II. The High Chief of Reinmar and the Reinmaren people will swear Oath and Allegiance to Tiberias van Aert of the Kingdom of Burgundy.

 

III. The Reinmaren people will migrate to the Franklands, and will have the duty of Warden over the Franklands and Guardians of Langkette.

 

IV. The Principality of Reinmar is encouraged to retain their local laws and customs and may enforce them within their domain, notable exceptions handled by the King or his council.

 

V. The Principality of Reinmar is permitted to sustain a Levy and Knightly Order.

 

VI. The Principality of Reinmar has the right to punish Reinmaren for committing crimes against the Kanun within the territories of the Kingdom of Burgundy.

[Sarven 2619]

Theodemar, the Reinmaren Herald-Duke smiled softly, this was a sured path, upon seeing the missive spread he'd proclaim,

"Wer Rastet, Der Rostet!"

"The Wardens of the Franklands return to their homeland!"

Ted Brae, the Clown-Honktiff, smiled and honked his nose,

HONK

PEACE WAS NOW!

[Morphine 823]

The Burgrave of Wesenburg rejoices for the coming years when he will return to the land of his grandfathers!

[Random 1694]

“GOTT has willed it, Reinmar will be on the right side of History once more. Goodbye, cruel and unforgiving north. Goodbye, Ferdenwald.” Martin commented as he read the Prince’s missive, idly walking through the Kanunsberg manor as to prepare for the coming exodus.

[Crevel 7557]

Robert Tiberius Alstion would surely have been rolling in his grave were he alive this day, having to find that his new home would only return to the Franklands of which he personally resided in a begrudging past. However, in his legacy came a new generation in that of Martin Alexander Alstion. A boy of more humbling character and fruitful spirit, and most importantly a boy unclouded by grudges of the past. In this land he had only heard of, the Alstion boy would surely find his future.

[Fionn__TWG 2795]

Whilst reading the conditions of peace agreed upon by his great-great-grandson, Wilheim Barclay would forget to look where he was going, losing his footing and subsequently tripping down the largest flight of stairs within the familial keep. In his panic, he'd grab one of the servants who had the misfortune of crossing his path, sending both of their souls to wherever God deemed fit.

Bishop Josefina celebrated. "I used to pray for times like this."

[ToonySR 25]

Erminhilde,  Aloof in her stuffy barracks room in Kretzen, shed a tear, both of relief and sorrow. Kretzen was the only Reinmar she had ever known, and she would surely miss it "Finally... peace in our time"
