The Succession of House Denodado

To her Sovereign and the esteemed peers of the Sovereign State of Hyspia, I write this letter to confirm my own abdication and recognition of @MyrtheMaria Sofia Denodado as the rightful holder of the Vizconde de Banderas and Le Baron de Sevilla. She has proven her right to hold these titles through strength and cunning, and shall bring House Denodado into a new age.

Let it be known that before GOD I cede myself from all landed titles, granting my heir, Maria Sofia Denodado, the responsibility of family patriarch. From the publication of this letter, she assumes all rights and privileges allotted to peers of our great Sovereign. 

As I stand as Gran Chancellor, I look out at my peers within Hyspia, and recognize that I have become a relic. Long past are the times where I was a young lad fighting alongside brothers and sisters against those who wished to conquer all of Almaris. The common man and woman are no longer of my generation, nor are they of Cesar’s. In my eyes, I have stood as patriarch for long enough, and it is time to allow the new generation to lead.

I have no doubt in my mind that Maria will bring a greatness to the Denodado name that I could never achieve. Under her guidance, I see the future which I could never give.

Signed,

HIS EXCELLENCY, Demitrey Denodado, Gran Chancellor de Hyspia, Maestro de la Esquela de Veronica, Oficial de Imigracion.

The Loss of a Mother

It has been a year since the passing of Annika Denodado; A beloved mother, viscountess, and friend to all in Hyspia. After a year of mourning, House Denodado shall be hosting a funeral to properly put her to rest, and allow closure for all who knew Annika. 

Throughout her life, Annika has been a source of compassion to all that knew her. In her early life, she was the woman that gave the Brotherhood of Saint Karl the courage they needed to continue the fight against the mori, even against all odds. She saw the good in all, including those of the horde. She would befriend anyone and everyone that met her, and not a single bad thing could be said about the compassionate Viscountess.

In her later years, Annika became known throughout Hyspia as a mother to all, a friend to outsiders, and someone that would help anyone through anything. To her, there was nothing too little that could be done for someone, and she would always go out of her way to make sure that others were having a better time than they were the day before. To her children and grandchildren, she was the kindest person they had ever met, and a role model to strive to become. To her husband, she was an angel that was taken too soon.

The Funeral

The funeral is to be held in Hyspia, within La Dorada at the Church of Blessed Francisco in four Saints Days time. All who knew Annika are welcome to attend, including those of her maiden family, House Amador.

A History of Companionship

The seeds of the bride and groom's relationship started when they were just pen pals, writing letters to each other before the start of the eternal freeze in the kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska. As time passed, Josef gained the confidence to brave the harsh chold to visit his childhood friend, Elaina, at her home in the Ducal territory of Reinmar.

After years of fantastic friendship, Elaina asked josef for a courtship, having been given the blessing of the then Baron Denodado. The pair courted for 6 years, until while in the tavern of La Dorada, Elaina stood up from her chair after a nice meal and took a knee to propose to Josef and proclaim her eternal love. Though taken aback in surprise and tears of joy falling from his cheeks, Josef answered joyously with an excited "Yes!"

During and after the attack on La Dorada by an unknown force of the undead, Lord Josef stayed by his love's side through it all. He cared for her with everything he had when Elaina Von Berkhoven had lost her forearm from the attack. Nothing has stopped this pairs love in any capacity, despite everything that has happened to the duo since they first met.

The Novikovs have resided in the Kingdom of Haenseti-Ruska and the United Kingdoms of Aaun for generations. Once mere servants of the royal families, our family has grown to become more than just peasantry. We have become a name that was once spoken quite often among many circles.

After moving to Hyspia, the majority of those who held the name Novikov have taken on the name Denodado, a name given to us by His Majesty, Cesar the Second of Hyspia. There are still those who hold the name Novikov, and use it proudly. To my cousin, Michal; It is unbecoming of me to continue to claim to be both the patriarch of the Denodado's and of the Novikovs. I have left the lands of Haense and Aaun, and you remain. 

Because of this, I hereby relinquish the title of Patriarch of House Novikov to Michal Novikov, for he has more than earned the right to hold this title. I look forward to seeing our ancestral name grow, and become well known once again.

Baron of Sevilla, Justiciero of Hyspia, Oficial De Imigracion

Ryba,

It has been 10 years since you left your children in my care, with no regard for their safety, or their lives.

10 years since you shouted at me for how you hated our family, and how you were forced to live the life you chose for yourself.

10 years since I went to the courts of Aaun and gained guardianship of the children you had abandoned.

10 years since you threatened my life for attempting to form a healthy familial relationship with your new wife.

10 years since you ran away with said wife to a small village.

10 years since you abandoned your post in the Marian Retinue.

10 years since you ran away from your responsibilities, your family, and those you hold dear with no explanation.

I was holding out hope that you would return. I wanted to tell you that your son, Aleksandr, is now married and has four beautiful children, the oldest of which is now 6. I wanted to share with you my son's engagement. I wanted to share with you my daughter's countless victories in battle, I wanted to share a cup of tea with you, and tell you how much you have missed since you had left. But you never wrote, nor ever showed your face in Haense or Hyspia.

It is for these reasons that you, Ryba, are hereby disowned from our House. Ryba, your name from this point forth, should you ever go by a name that is not your wife's, shall be Ryba the Black.

===============================================================================

===============================================================================

Your name has been one that has become well renowned as of late, as the cogs of war slowly creep towards your hold. There are many that reside within your lands that I would consider acquaintances; some of them I would even consider friends. These friends speak highly of you, saying you are a Lady that is worth the praise.

And so, I write this missive to you. From one Baron to another, from one side to another, I request that you see reason and lay down your blades. There is no need for those who have not taken part in all that has caused this war, to suffer the consequences. You and those who reside under you, I believe, are innocent people.

It is not too late to lower your blades, and to seek council with the Covenant. Blackwater Keep has fallen, flattened by the Covenant's army, and your keep is in the crosshairs of siege weaponry. Innocent blood need not be shed. If you refuse, which is understandable, I would still be willing to assist you in evacuating civilians, and those who choose not to fight.

Just because we reside on opposite sides of this war, does not mean that either one of us should be heartless to the other.

Baron of Sevilla, Justicer De Hyspia, Office De Imigracion

As Demitrey Denodado walked through the holes in Blackwater Keeps walls, flashbacks of battles past began to cross his vision. As he looked to the gate, he saw the gate to Amaethea’s keep, and a large Mori borrowing its way through the tight corridor with men ready to fight it with spears and polehammers.

More rubble would fall from the ruined wall, which would catch his attention. When Demitrey looked to the wall, though, he saw the ruined walls of Savoy, where Brothers of Brev martyred themselves for the survival of others. 

He stumbled back down the steps of the courtyard, away from the sounds of cracking lightning from the magic the Brothers of Brev used in Savoy. When he turned to face the stairs, however, he saw the gardens of Karosgrad, which he was walking into. Before him would be the sight of the Grand Ballista, crushed by the dead Giant Centipede that he and Skaul @JesterMilk had skewered, while fire erupted all around him. 

The man stood still in horror as visions of the past continued to play across his eyes, until a gentle hand patted his shoulder. He jumped and turned around, only to see his daughter Maria @Myrthe standing there, and from her, the flashbacks that had surrounded him faded away.

“Ah, Hija..! Y’am so happy to see vy. Vy did great today.. Are vy ready to head home?”

========================================================

=========================================================

When I initially challenged you to a duel, I did not have the full picture of the events that have transpired. After speaking with both Count Cassian Colborn and yourself, I have recognized the faults in my words.

I apologize for the accusations that were hurled towards you and your family, as they were not grounded in the truth of all of the events that happened. I regret the rashness of my decision to slander your name only knowing one side of a greater event that occurred. I do not ask for your forgiveness, but for the chance to prove to you that I am better than this. 

Our duel shall still go on, as a bout between friends, between comrades. I hope that our upcoming duel will allow both of us to put this behind us.

Signed,

Demitrey would read over the invitation with a happy smile. "Ae'll have to prepare vy a dobry gift for vyr 16th namesake. A dobry challenge" He would head to his forge to begin work on another piece.

Demitrey read over the paper with a slight grin "Y'am proud of vy, Aurelia." He'd take the newspaper and put it in his satchel.
