- The meeting between the Grand Master, as well as the High commander had commenced. The Cleric had come in soon after, hearing their decision. -
Grand Master Peter slowly raises off his Throne, looking about the room. There stood Ser Thomas, Ser Edmond, Velwyn, as well as Toov. Lifting his gauntlet, he lightly coughs into it to begin his proclamation.
"Officers of the Rose, today we have made a most holy decision. In the Cleric's plight, he had come to the Order seeking assistance, and assistance he shall be given."
After the beginning of the saying, two more members come into the Throne area, Leric and Mathus. Both adorning the fine tabbard of the White Rose. Clearing his throat once more, Peter resumes his proclamation to the whole of the Order.
"Today I pronounce War, on the un-holy beings and Heretics that are currently residing within' Greywise Woods. No longer shall the Heretics of Greywise feed upon the innocent beings of the Duchy, nor on any innocents within' the Empires lands!"
A hint of aggression is found in Peter's voice, as further members of the Order enter into the area. The Grand Master Clenches his Fists, glaring around the hall in which the Order is currently presiding. He resumes his speech;
"In the coming days we will perform the purging of these unholy primitives, axe and sword in hand! The on-lookers will soon know the might of the Rose and what power we truly posses! Though many may not know of these deeds, we will do so anyway. For only one pair of eyes matters, the eyes of God!"
Chants resonate throughout the halls of Rose Hold, the sounds of metal clanking and armor can be heard as far as Ildon. Certainly anyone within, or near the Barony would he the chants of the men. Following his speech, Peter lifts a single gauntlet to the air, a first formed in it's wake. He loudly shouts over the men chanting;
"Fight with me Brothers! God wills it!"
The crowd soon explodes into chants of, 'God wills it!' the beating of wardrums adorned with musical flutes quickly fill the Barony, as the men prepare a feast, as accustomed before war.
