“Heh,”

 

Sir Arn Honeywine says as he orders the first troops to cross into Urguan.

“Did The Horde and Urguan…. really think that would work?” Juniper couldn’t even hold back a laugh. “That the Emperor of, like, most of the ******* continent would just abdicate? Just because?” The ancient woman turned to her equally ancient husband, @Travisty“Maybe something good will come from this Empire after all. Urguan and the Horde could use a good reckoning.”

"Who would've thought?" A druid remarked to her student upon showing her the missive ( @Adelemphii) "Activate armoring protocol, Miyu-san. We are going to war against humanity."

"Ah've always wondered why the humans follo' their so called majesties without question." Gallio thought to himself as he looked at the quick response missive. "Ah suppose they believe wisdom t' be a birthright when ye're born t' a leader, seein' how that be the onleh prerequisite t' lead a nation." - "How easileh such a theoreh es proven wrong." He concluded before throwing the missive into the fire.

"Who'da thought Hadrian the Mad would've e'er abdicated that throne of 'is?" A dwarfess pondered, safely nestled within the cavern halls of Urguan's capital. "Reasonable demands met with childish tantrum. Sooner or later, the spoiled princeling 'll learn t'respect his elders. Anyhow." She tossed the missive into her fireplace, fine kindling for stirring the pot.

"An appropiate response for what they hath requested. Ave IMPERIUM!" said a citizen of Idunia, interrupted from her session of contemplation beneath the sun.

SOXTON BOOMSTITCH, Big Hat Society #3, claps his hands together in applause at the Emperor’s powerful response as he shimmers and fades away in front of everyone in the square of the Grand Kingdom of Urguan.

Somewhere on the continent, a butterfly that convinced an elf to practice medicine in the empire without a license laughs.

And as one missive was read, another bearing the Imperial Seal came, Aviel turned towards his desk and upon reading it just once, because of its uncharacteristic simplicity, that hopeful smile shattered into a somber frown.

“I guess peace ‘as t’ wait jus’ a li’l longer, but it was always going to be the obvious choice.” He audibly sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. “There ‘re more pressin’ matters than land-grabs.”

A SQUIRE FED UPON THE CORPSE OF A DWARF. HE PAUSED, AS NEWS WAS BROUGHT TO HIM. “AVE IMPERIUUUM!!!” 

A CARDINAL FELL TO HIS KNEES BESIDE THE SQUIRE, SHOVELING MORSELS OF RED INTO HIS MOUTH. "AVE IMPERIUUUM" HE CRIED IN UNISON.

"There is not a force, in all of human history, more capable of bringing an Empire together than war. I would have thought they knew," spoke the auld Emperor from his home, and made the arrangements to have his Mace brought into battle once more.

Now, at last, came the day that Volker would stand shoulder to shoulder with the Knights of The Red Dragon.

Sylvara seemed especially enthusiastic to bring the empires war to Urguan. One could hear her chanting "WAR WAR WAR WAR" in the midst of her mind

[pkdon 1978]

Within the Knight’s Hall, breathed a low steady noise. Two men sat opposite each other, attended by their squires. Leather straps were drawn tight, buckles clicking shut one by one. The steel plates kissed together with familiar clacks, as pauldrons were settled on the shoulders to bear them. One looked across as he fastened the final clasp of his vambrace.

 

“It is time, brother.”

 

The Crown Prince spoke, his gauntlet striking into place at the flat of his palm. He reached for his sword, as untested in true battle as he. Nevertheless, it held a surety that it should not falter, bolstered by the conviction of his own heart.

 

“The sons of Malin were wise to cede peacefully. Those spawn of Krug and Urguan are gravely misled.”

 

He rose to his feet, helmet nestled against his cuirass as his eyes wandered out the stained-glass window.

 

“This is not ambition. This is birthright. Mankind was destined to lord over all.”

Rhorgvar read the missive in silence before crushing the parchment in his hands, his expression hardening as he turned and marched toward his clansmen, distributing gear before raising his hammer high. "Kavir oz da oramar eron umros!" he shouted, his voice carrying through the hold as he lifted the weapon overhead. "Weh will nae fall, fer weh 'ave DUNGRIMM on our side! ARRRRUUUU!" Rhorgvar roared.

 

Hans gripped the hilt of his blade tightly as he began to pray aloud beneath his helm. "GOTT, mein Lord above all, ich stand before du, ein servant auf righteousness und justice. Bless mein blade und strengthen mein hand, fur ze time hast come to strike down ze wicked und protect ze faithful. Grant mich courage, as du hast granted it to Saint Lucien und all ze holy martyrs before mich. May joor will be done on ze battlefield, und may ve bring ze wrath auf ze seven skies upon ze enemies auf joor Church und ze Reich. Amen."
