Volume I: The Wyvern A painting, “Lonely Ride” by Hans Thoma Distant shrills called from the deep fog as Dame Valda rode upon the ship's bow, sailing onto the unknown with her fellow crewmembers and captain, Alikos Bayac, at her side. The year was 1913, and she stood silently between the canons, wielding a torch in one hand and her blade in the other. Before the crew could think, a Wyvern hatchling had clung to their ship's side, spraying boiling water onto a crew mate that manned a canon near that edge. Their preparations had fallen flat in defense against such a beast, quickly the Dame, Valda, jumped toward the edge to drive her sword into the face of the beast, easily stabbing between the weak scales of the beast before the Wyvern snapped at the knight’s arm, though did little damage to the mighty Dame. Soon, the beast quickly flies overhead of the crew to the port side, spraying the members of the ship as it made its way to the other side, though before it lands another member of the crew would manage to shoot a bolt at the scaled beast, combusting on impact and redirecting the route of the Wyvern, but setting the large ship aflame as it did so, large flames erupting from the vessel. ~ ~ The Dame sought to put down the fire as the remaining crewmates defended themselves and the boat, Marian, launching bolts and canons in an attempt the throw the beasts off balance, and successfully doing so as they landed a mighty blow with a canon, launching the Wyvern into the sky, only for a much larger Wyvern to appear thereafter, the mother, focusing on a nearby Hanseni vessel that too sailed those dangerous seas. The Crew took this time to prepare their own boat, watching as well as the Haense vessel put up a decent fight against the scaled beast, slowing the creature dramatically yet failing to finish it off, and after a number of successful shots from the crewmembers aboard the Marion, the cannon that Valda manned alongside another crewmate finally killed the beast, the Wyvern creature falling into the depths of those murky waters, releasing a black ichor into the sea… And just at that, a giant tentacle erupted from the sea, snatching the body of the Wyvern and dragging it deep below. The Crew would fire their weaponry at the tentacle, a nearby boat of smugglers identifying the beast as a Kraken. The Captain, Alikos, decided he and his crew were to return to shore, for now, safe from the sea and what may lie below, with no choice but to save what they saw for another day, another adventure. Penned by, Siegfried Ottomar von Alstreim Based on the tale of Dame Valda

Siegfried von Alstreim cheered for his father Ottomar!

Wallace prepared.

The once-upon-a-time Count, Edward, smiled jubilantly at his daughters accomplishments!

Edward of Aldersberg smiled neatly at the missive "Maybe I ought to go." He commented to himself in an empty room as he sat upon the floor.

Edward Clement spied the missive from wherever he was "ANNE?" He exclaimed "That's my wife!" The former Count showed the paper to one of the people nearby "Isn't she just lovely."

Wilhelm plots to take the Haenseni throne.

Wilhelm Carrington welcomed Diana merrily at the gates of the seven skies, waving her over, "Come dance!" Exclaimed the once-upon-a-time Baron, as he were spinning about arm in arm with many of his fellow-departed friends in a grand ballroom, with ceilings higher than you could see.

Edward would not find the missive until months later, cracking a short frown at the turn of events "Unfortunate I couldn't have helped him in life." Spoke the former Count in regards to his passed son "Though- I imagine Austina was destined for such."

Edward Clement Novellen-Aldersberg hears the news "Well- At least I 'died' before my title were lost. Forever will I be the Count of Aldersberg, it is my right!" As well as... The decrepit Wilhelm Lucius Carrington sighs from his boat "Oh, Oren.. I suppose it is good Amadea married to Haense then!" He tsked.

Wilhelm d'Arkent grumbled.

Wilhelm of Carrington read over the document "Hmph, I must agree... It seems the Haense-folk have merrily allowed him within and he takes it for granted."

“Yes yes yes!” Applauded Wilhelm upon reaching the section of his daughter “She becomes more and more like Mary.” The Baron nodded a few times with a wide smile.

"Oh! I am glad we were able to make a good impression. Seem we are the only ones." Muttered The Count of Aldersberg as he glanced over the missive, a short smile resting upon his visage.

Franziska Ipera read over the poetry, nodding a few times as she seemingly approved! “Da, this is dobry.” She commented!

"Oh, Aunt Charlotte.." Edward of Aldersberg grimaced

“I would be lying if I said I was surprised, she is a Carrington..” Remarked the Baron of Carrington and father of Amadea.

Edward Novellen-Aldersberg looked upon the silver cigarette case he had been gifted by Maisie, a lewd woman depicted on the metal lid. He sat in silence, withdrawing a cigarette from the contained and putting it to his lips, slowly lighting the stick and taking a small puff. Wilhelm d'Arkent hears of the news "Ohh noooo...." He hardly feigned a sad tone, nodding once and moving on.

Edward read over the document from Aldersberg "What is happening?! I ought to get out more.."

Start the conversation!

The Baron of Carrington stood within that throne room "Long live Philip III!" The man chanted alongside many others "We are watching history be made." He spoke towards his daughter and wife.
