    The Fate of the Second Sons

    The Fate of the Second Sons

     

    11th Sigismund’s End, 1909

    ~The Sons and Daughters setting up camp for the exiles of Petra~

    The raspy hack of coughs and moans of the dying rang through the camp between the claps of thunder. The sharp cry of a babe pierced the camp as the Sons and Daughters of Petra cursed between scoops of mud. Holes, holes for their waste, holes for their dead, holes in their hearts for the loss of their homeland.

     

    "How did we get here?” Constanz said to his longtime friend Sir Louis d’Azor. “How did this happen?”

     

    His comrade had no response. He was deep in thought. All of the Petrans were. While they had brought all they could carry, it was not enough to fill the void that their lost loved ones and their land had once filled. 

     

    "Im not going anywhere Constanz. I will follow you wherever you take us.” Sir Emir d’Abbassia said to a room full of Petrans. The Round Table had called a town hall to discuss their current situation. 

     

    "I'm with Emir! We will forge a new future. As long as we have each other!” said the Mayor Eryane Rhodon de Rosius. The woman had gone from a relative stranger to a great friend since her successful election. She had done wonders for the people of Petra and gave hope when there was little to be found.

     

    It was all any leader could ask for as Constanz smiled sadly as his companions. However, their words of hope would not solve their predicament. “They’ll hunt us while I draw breath. It would not matter how far we go. We would never be safe.”

    "Then we’ll kill them all!” said the brave Sir Wings von Hahn “We will have each other’s backs, just as we always have!”

     

    "This is no longer your fight, my fellow countrymen. Use this to create a new start, a future for our people. This is our chance to create a life for our children and our children’s children.” responded the disgraced Archduke.

     

    "B-B-But Papa! Th-Th-Th-They’ll kill you!” said his eldest son Albert. The young boy had the markings of a leader, if he could overcome his challenges. Constanz smiled at the boy, but there was a deep sadness behind his eyes. He would never be able to witness his son grow to be a man.

     

    Later that dark night, a rider galloped away from the camp with a letter in hand. 

     

    "To Marius Audemar,

     

    You owe me a debt. In a single stroke of carelessness, you tore apart both a family and a nation with your adolescent decisions. For the past year, I have been waging a war of survival against the likes of you and your rogues. You have turned my wife paranoid not just against me, but against the people of Petra as a whole. On that fateful day when Renilde learned of my knowledge of your unholy deeds, she fled to you instead of to her countrymen to which you waged war. A war sanctioned on women and children, on innocent diplomats, and on all Petrans alike. 

     

    On the day that I learned that Renilde preferred the company of other men than the company of her people, I was shocked that she would stain the legacy of Petra and risk its security by trading whispered words with another nation’s royalty. That same nation that now occupies our homes. But never, never, did I plot to seize her crown. I made no move in any sort of fashion, not as much of a thought of it, instead finding that she had attempted to seize the people’s funds with force through a fit of paranoia. She then fled to Haense where I became apprised that she was raising men to seize the city with Haeseni and Ferrymen forces.

     

    I have seen firsthand what sort of wanton destruction the Ferrymen can cause, and many honorable Petrans such as Sir Arthur de Lyons, Sir Brandt Berhal, and Dame Livia d’Anpalais, died at the hands of their blades or worse, at the hands of darkspawn from within your ranks. I rallied the people of Petra to the keep for safety, and yet they still came. Only by the Grace of GOD did we survive that day. But I know my people will find no justice at the hands of your governments, and I know you will keep hunting them for crimes they did not commit so I leave my fate to GOD. 

     

    I, Constantine Antonius Novellen, challenge you to a duel to the death.”

    [PK] The Lionhearted's Last Stand

    in Commonwealth of the Petra

    Posted

    As Constanz looked around at the ashen bodies laying around the keep, his lone eye turned towards Sir Arthur. A ferocious warrior and an honorable man, the knight had been the first to try to stem the breach of Ferrymen and Azdrazi. His actions bought time for some to escape, and a tear fell from the man's eye onto the floor. 

     

    "Sir Arthur..." he says, closing his eye and dipping his head.

    A Knight's Penance [PK]

    in Commonwealth of the Petra

    Posted

    The Knighthood of Petra was highly regarded amongst the realms of Man, and in their annals of history, Sir Brandt Berhal will be known. An honorable advisor and confidant of Constanz, the men had been close since the day they met in Petra. The war had taken a toll on Constanz, but the news of the death of his friend stung the man to his core, filling him with rage. Looking towards the flaming vessel carrying his comrade's body along the River Petra, Constanz made a vow to his friend. He would see his home returned.

    Constanz looks over the ashen bodies, the socket of his eye dripping blood onto the Petran ground. They had called upon the Archduchess, and the Ferrymen had come in her place. The cries of the Petrans over the fallen rang in his ears. A dismal affair.

    Need a response by tonight if possible @tilly @Eddywilson2

     

    As stated above, 4pm est Sunday works for me. If it doesn’t work for the other side, I ask we get a sooner date than next weekend. Even Saturday. We’ve seen that both sides can raise a force quickly in the past two days. Let’s finish this.

    A Call to Trial

    "The Commonwealth is founded upon a Knightly Republic, and so it shall return. I remove myself from the judicial body due to my involvement with the situation and trust the Knights of Petra to make a sound decision on these proceedings." says a red-eyed Archduke.

    Cool w/ me. Just ask that we have a few players who rp solely in Petra not on member perms. Just ask they be considered. Happy to do a moderated discussion between both parties if that's what it takes. We will make this fun!

    This mentality is really indicative of what spawned this RP to begin with. He's trying to coerce me into making an OOC apology to him (over RP) and give him PRO. Again, it's not reflective of the RP that's existing on the ground. Why should this even be an OOC issue like that? Why is an apology on my end, along with handing my nation over, needed? Logically, this RP should be voided because information was obtained via a glitch, which the staff member knows that they should not have used, and then INTENTIONALLY went back to go and get the jeopardized items.

     

    Everything I've done has been solely through roleplay and legitimate interactions, while this entire conflict sparked over information that was never legitimately obtained in the first place. At the bare minimum, if fighting is to transpire regardless of the cheating that unfolded here (no pun intended; I mean with the misuse of perms and the lockpicking), then we should receive the rally we had today at the minimum. We sallied out of Haense in order to put down this failed coup attempt and this can be corroborated by many witnesses of the consort (EddyWilson2's) behavior and alerting us to the danger, and culminating afterwards in the raid to push out the insurgents.

     

    Tilly, I understand the need to demonize my character, but let's leave this IC. My conversation with Chorale_ earlier pertains to peace IC. I don't think asking for an apology to Constanz IC is unfair, let alone OOC coercion. Just ask him!

     


    I'll address the next point about this screenshot where you claim I wanted to send you to Haense to coup. This is outright seditious. You can scroll a few messages earlier to see I said 'We' meet with them. In fact, meeting with the Haeseni 1:1 got us to this point.

    I intended to meet with them to discuss the cheating matter as well. Not to coup you, but to solve this. Alas, that is IC, and where I will leave it. 

     

    Unfortunate to hear that the evidence was obtained through a rule breach. From what I understand, the player jumped the door rather than breaking it. A minor mistake which I don't think should call for a void of rp that the whole server has just about engaged in now, especially all of Petra. I can't imagine things going back to normal IC with the aforementioned attitude and would prefer a quick resolution.
