Gaius couldn't be ever the more optimistic and happier for the future of the Kingdom.

Eid Mubarak!

Gaius var Ruthern closed his eyes, a soft sigh escaping his lips. The Ruthern felt a feeling of hollowness as the news of Alexander's passing reached his ears. The first time the Baron of Marsana had met Alexander was with his sister at the gates of old Atrus. He was merely the age of six back then. Oh how have times passed. Now Gaius himself was a married man. Odd isn't it? To see the ones whom you have looked up to and known for all your life now slowly slip away from this world. "Rest in peace, Alexander...May GODAN see that you find peace in the seven skies. Your words of wisdom and rule of fair justice kept our nation together...it was an honor serving you."

I support radical pacifism.

István Mátyás Ivanovich couldn't be ever the more prouder for his Papej, Count Jan Ivanovich.

Wavey smiles at the world <3 for it’s a really beautiful place, one which he thinks we all have to cherish and protect.

Gaius var Ruthern’s lips curled into a warm smile as he read the missive. “Congratulations coz, congratulations to the both of you.” He marked the date on his calendar, making sure to attend the Crown-Prince’s and the Princess of Ba’as’s wedding.

Gaius var Ruthern nodded with a smile. The talks were a success. "For prosperity, defense and cooperation!"

Gaius var Ruthern is happy for his fellow peers and friends. He made note to deliver gifts to the Kervallen estate sometime soon.

Baron Gaius var Ruthern will miss his mentor and father-figure dearly. Oh how he had always encouraged him and pushed him to hone and sharpen his mind whilst striving for what is best for his beloved nation! The Baron made note to bake some pastries for his dear friend and take them to his home. Perhaps they could spend the rest of the day reminiscing about their time working alongside each other in the Duana?

Awesome work guys! <3

“Que? Tio Audo shaved his beard?!”, Cesar blinked in confusion towards the individual who had whispered the rumor to him. “But he still has a beard…”, Nevertheless, the little Prince shrugged. He then moved towards his twin sister Frisketa to deliver the rumor. “Keta! Escuché un rumor que Tio Audo saved a bear!”, Cesar II de Pelear was beginning to enjoy this game, even though he could barely remember what was being whispered to him.

Upon hearing the news the Baron of Marsana, Gaius Rosius var Ruthern signed the Lorraine before murmuring a soft prayer for the Musin. A sigh would then escape his lips, “You deserve a peaceful rest, komyn. Dravo and spasibo for all the humorous yet interesting conversations Y had with you.”

Gaius var Ruthern polishes his thanhic steel mace, ready to break some heretic bones.

"Boy do Y love Canonism!" A certain Ruthern would proclaim in the south.

Prince Cesar II loves the Hyspian made cosmetics and perfumes, “Madre and Tia Fia are so fashionable!”

Cesar Franciscito de Pelear will definitely be attending the event!

Cesar Franciscito de Pelear could not believe the news when he heard it. His body trembled as his gaze stayed upon the floor, little droplets of tears falling from the corners of his eyes and onto the cold mahogany floor of the palace. The little eight year old Prince, once a bubbly little thing, would clutch his stuffed griffin plushy tightly whilst signing the Lorraine across his chest with his trembling fingers. "DIOS...please keep her happy and always smiling in the seven skies." His voice would crack as he whispered those words.

Upon hearing the news, the Baron of Marsana sends a letter of condolences to the Duke and Duchess of Vidaus. The letter reads: "Dear Cousin Aleksandr and Your Royal Highness, My sincerest condolences to the passing of your daughter. My family and I pray GODAN welcomes her home in the seven skies and may she forever find peace. My family and I are with you during this hour of grieving, even in prayers. May GODAN be with the both of you and your family. Warmest Regards from your Kin, Gaius var Ruthern." @Demavend@PerfectlyPeachy

"An Anathema...and he told mea he jest an honorable man." Gaius var Ruthern shook his head as he read the missive before his brows then furrowed in anger. "Heinrik Sarkozic jest a wolf in sheep's clothing, that jest for sure." The Baron set the missive down before going to his forge to polish his thanhic-steel mace, ready to defend Balian and the righteous people of Aaun alongside his fellow Canonist comrades.

The six year old Hyspian Prince Cesar II de Pelear sat upon a chair within his parent's chambers, reading a children's poetry book with his stuffed Griffin plush under his arm. He then looked up from his book upon hearing the sound of a thud against the wall and his mother's voice. The little boy's curious yet anxious irises then watched his father grab his sword as he marched out of the bedroom, with a parchment in hand. His gaze then went to his mother. In an anxious tone, he murmured, "Madre...what happened?" Upon seeing his mother's own look of sorrow and anger, the boy then furrowed his brows as another nervous question escaped his lips, "¿Por qué papá está enojado?". He had a sickening feeling in the pit of his stomach that something was indeed wrong. "Is this about Abuelo...? Did they finally find his killer?" @HIGH_FIRE @Kitomine
