    The End of a Bull [PK POST]

    "Illy-Billy."

    The second triplet of Kortrevich mumbled the name over and over again, until she was sick of it.

    The way she was sick of all the lies, the nobility, the titles. However, she was not sick of her sister.

     

    Nika missed her deeply and her brother, a bond that couldn't be broken.

    Matching clothing, matching toys, matching names - she did miss it all.

     

    "Run Illy, you'll be happier."

     

    She threw an old cow plush off a snowy cliff in order to mourn.

    THE EDICT OF KORAVIA

    in Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska

    Posted

    If she could, Esmée Gabrielle Kortrevich would be rolling over in her grave.

     

    Dimirti Kortrevich let out a gasp that nearly killed him. "Can't believe he would disgrace his mother like that! Ungrateful son! HE CARRIES THE SAME BLOOD AS US!" The old disgusted man couldn't be bothered anymore and went back to sleep, waiting for his own doom.

     

    And for the lost triplet somewhere in the lands of the swamp, read the missive with an eyeroll. "Stupid nobles," hissed Nika Kortrevich. "This is why I stole the hand!"

    In the five years since our Amelya was born, we have been blessed with three more. On the
    23rd of The Sun’s Smile, 1932, our second eldest,     Esmee Elize van Aert, was born with a radiant complexion, named after her grandmother Esmee Gabrielle. 

     

    Somewhere in the beyonds, an old Kortrevich Countess smiled. Her legacy lived on.

    "They stole ummi's name," Dimitri - the old Kortrevich lord - stated as he tapped the missive with the back of his hand. A tsk followed, shaking his head. "I suppose he misses Esfir." He frowned, setting down the missive aside, continuing on his day.

    LotC Development II: Faith and Nations

    in Miscellany

    Posted

    i think religion/faith in rp is FINE but it gets to a point where it's just TOO much

     

    religion/faith rp gets pretty harmful and abused for the wrong reasons, players feel restricted in certain nations because of the religion, and it causes unnecessary conflict

    A FALLING ROSE

    Rosalind’s heart was heavy with guilt, burdened by the weight of the lies she had said and the debts she had carried. Every day had become a battle, as the guilt gnawed at her conscience, eroding her sense of self-worth. She felt trapped, suffocated by the consequences of her actions.

     

    All of this had brought the princess to a cliff, watching waves crash against the jagged rocks below her. This was her way of seeking redemption in the world’s eyes, perhaps her peers and the All-Father would forgive her. She didn’t want to bring any more shame to her people or her nation.

    "We are expected to keep up appearances." The 'fenn affirms with a few light nods. "But in private Rosalind, we are just people." He reminds her, "You can be a beacon all you wish, but a lighthouse keeper is given a set amount of oil when he arrives. He cannot burn all that oil in one night and expect the ships to navigate by his light once it's out, only having a premise of where it was before." He continued, "We must cry with our people sometimes.. We must cry on our own sometimes. Don't burn all your oil at once Rosalind, or like the lighthouse keeper your flame will die out, and you shall freeze to death in its absence."

    But she couldn't cry with her people, her friends, or fellow peers.

    The fire in her was gone, the oil ran out - Rosalind was no longer bright.

     

    Without hesitation, Rosa stepped forward, her balance becoming unstable on the edge. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and let her troubled thoughts wash over her one final time.

     

    And so, the princess took the plunge.

    I’ve been informed that they properly paid for it. I think. Not sure if they had permission. My apologies for any misinfo I may have caused.

     

    in any case: they should have been more upfront about this with everyone ahead of time. Especially the ST who are caught in the crossfire.

     

    even if they properly paid for it, they should have given credit to where they got it from or tag the builders

    There's never been a real problem with this system and its easy, but staff decided that they just HAD to overcomplicate it and stick us in some weird lore-cave.

     

    THIS! Exactly this, we need a moment to breathe and exist - having everything connected to lore or to a story is starting to get boring. I'm so over this temp map.
