The Battle of Southbridge, 1811 Fourty-Five years ago in the year 1811, the People of Sedan rose their banners in Rebellion against the Holy Orenian Empire. After many a transgression against the House de Joannes and its loyal subjects, Prince Louis I decreed that Sedan shall no longer be under the heel of the Novellen Imperial Line. The valiant Goats of Sedan rode out to face their foe on the fields of Southbridge, yet despite their valiant efforts were turned away. Just a year later the war was lost, and our people were forced to scatter across Almaris to bide our time for a return of the Principality. Despite the failings of the Rebellion, it did succeed in establishing the Sedanian people as its own, forging a name for ourselves in the flames of war. Years later, and now sits the Royal City of Haverlock. Within dwells the de Joannes family surrounded by their beloved subjects once more, and on the same soil in which the Sedanians fought and bled for their freedom many years ago. Therefore, with the construction of the city and regathering of the Sedanian people, it is time to reflect upon and celebrate our past as a people and as a Principality. When the Orenians had attempted to scatter us in the wind, we returned and rebuilt once more alongside our Urguani and Haeseni allies. Once again, the proud banner of Sedan flies high above the walls of its people, and once again we have a home. I, Ludwig von Audrick, a soldier of Sedan and a steward of Haverlock, invite the people of the Sedanian realm to celebrate and remember our long history as our own people. Let there be dancing, let there be singing, let there be drinking, and let there be joy! For at last, we have a true City to call our own in the same land we were once expelled from. Gather, Sons and Daughters of Sedan, and rejoice in our history.

I feel like we should decide this once and for all. Personally, I was very sad when Wonks got shelved, because I was planning to make a wonk when they existed. Anyway, give me your thoughts and vote!

For countless nights upon Freddy's disappearal, Ragnvald stood awake constantly sending out fliers and messages in hopes of finding something, anything, that could lead to his return. He vowed not to rest until he found him once again and brought him home safely.

AN OPEN LETTER TO IVARUS 'THE BASTARD' To my former Kin, Ivarus 'The Bastard', You confuse me, Ivarus. Many years ago during the Sedan Rebellion, when both our Fathers lived, you decried the Empire as a tyrannical secular nation with no respect for the Church, thus your reasoning for joining the rest of our family in the Sedan Rebellion. You were already an adult at that time, no? Had you not supported the Anti-Imperial cause, you had the capability of choosing not to join it yourself. However, you made the conscious choice to do so anyway. It now seems strange after several decades following the Rebellion, now that your beloved Father rests in the Seven Skies, that you would now turn coat and support the Anathema Emperor. Were you perhaps too afraid to express your true feelings while your Father, may his soul rest, still lived; knowing it would break the man's heart? Perhaps you were bribed by the Orenian treasuries, or gave into Imperial propaganda, I know naught your motivation. Even so, there is one thing I make very clear. You do not have the backing of the Audrickian Line. You do not have the backing of the Devanite Line, the rightful patriarchs of the House of Bishop. I know naught what your Josephite Kin have to say about your treacherous actions, but should they have any sense, they too would see your act of supporting the Anathema Emperor as an affront to all the Bishop family has fought for the past sixty years. Moving on, I do not believe your motivation to be that of pure faith, yet one of greed and ambition. It is well-known that you cared little for your own flock when you were Archbishop. And, shall I tell of another family secret that you prefer to keep under wraps, dear cousin? When you were beginning your clerical career, you attempted to drown my Uncle, Audrick II, for his sins. You called it purification, I call it attempted murder. Uncle Audrick was a sinful man, such cannot be denied in any regard. He denied the church, and disrespected the clergy. However, one would expect a man of the cloth to have patience with such men, no? Attempt to redeem them with words and kindness first, rather than immediately try to take their life in such a cruel and inhumane way. Let it be known of your crimes, Cousin. Not only did you attempt to drown a man, you attempted to drown your own kin. And the line of Audrick does not forget such a crime. I will not dwell on your acts as a man of the clergy, I merely wish to prove a point. You are not fit to replace His Holiness, Everard VI. I will not spend time speaking of scriptures, philosophy and such, as it is not something I am well versed in. However, I will once again reaffirm that on behalf of the Line of Audrick Bishop, we do not support you in any capacity. We denounce you, and proclaim that you have no association with us. I encourage our Kin, the Devanite Line, to proclaim the same in light of your treachery. Ludwig von Audrick, Son of Jakob Bishop

"No kin of mine. He has allowed himself to be tainted by Orenian lies, as many under the Anathema Emperor have." said Ludwig von Audrick as he spat upon his cousin's missive, then leaving it to burn at his fireplace. He then began to write a letter to his cousin Erwin Bishop.

"Ave Imperator Ivan! Long may he reign!" screams a man of no importance who is more than happy to accept a third-party option rather than a Dwarf Lover and Anathema Emperor!

Itdontmatta did what nobody else could before, make me happy with conflict rules

"FOR THE GLORY OF GOD! DEUS VULT! DEATH TO THE ANATHEMA! RAISE YOUR SWORDS IN REBELLION, O' RIGHTEOUS WHO REMAIN! MARCH ON THE CITY OF THE ANATHEMA! DEUS VULT!" Roared out a certain man who supported the Pontiff and Canonism fanatically!

Javier de Pelear has a panic attack at the prospect of an Urguani Civil War right as they're about to win the War with Oren! "Hijo de puto! Mobilize the Guard! Call mis hijos! Prepare Arenisca's defences! Mierda, I don't want to fight Irehearts...but I don't want to fight the Frostbeards either! Son of a *****!" With that, the aging Hyspian flipped a nearby table and stormed off to his quarters. Ludwig von Audrick, on the other hand, saw this coming from a mile away. "Ich serve at the will of mein Prince, und so Ich shall wait for his word." he said calmly as he went to speak to his wife about the news ( @wowsirss)

Ragnvald Eiriksson Ruric squints at Manfred's use of the title 'high chieftain of the Edvardssons'. He concludes that Manfred intends to follow the path of his pretender father, and thus goes to sharpen his blade "Claims to be an Edvardsson, lives in Oren, doesn't use the Edvardsson last name, and has no way to prove his connection to the Edvardsson clan. This is going to be fun."
