Father Marc nodded upon hearing the results of the Papal Election and stated the following: "I congratulate His Holiness, Fleeperus I, for his ascension to the Throne of St. Daniel. Now, let us get to work together, as one, for our beloved Canondom and our faithful people."

"God bless the King and the good people of Balian. I, for once, feel proud to be Balianese." said Father Marc of Lotharia. "For the Protector of the Heartlanders! For the Holy Mother Church!" he said as he grabbed the Sword of Cascadia, an ancient relic of the House Galbraith that dated from the times of Emperor John II Horen, and prepared for war.

Father Marc felt utterly disgusted to read the king's missive as he realized how the Haeseni King felt proud of hearing that the Haensemen fought alongside dwarves to bring the fall of the Holy Empire of Oren "I will never support anyone who works with non-humans to destroy a human canonist nation. The Holy Scrolls of the Canon commend human unity and highlight the importance of the Old Kingdom of Oren, founded by the Exalted Horen, as its first King, from who all the humans descend. Such a disunity in mankind is precisely what the Great Deceiver seeks to achieve, for he knows that the day we turn against our own canonist brothers in faith we will all perish and Iblees will emerge triumphant from the Void and rule over the ashes of the world." remarked the priest, before signing the Cross of Lorraine.

Father Marc applauded the stance of the Holy See, pleased to see that some of his petitions had been accepted by His Holiness and His Curia. "Finally." he said, nodding as he read the official missive from the Church.

"Well said, Your Royal Highness." said Father Marc upon hearing of the Prince of Reinmar's vow. "May Tiberias of the Middenland continue his unholy conquest, we will rise in defense of our Holy Mother Church."

"Don't they literally worship a red demon?" asked the Nauzican Alexander Darkwood upon looking at the war propaganda, raising a brow at the pagans' hypocrisy.

LETTER TO THE HOLY SEE A CALL FOR ACTION IN DEFENSE OF OUR FAITH 2nd of Sun’s Smile, 1989 To His Holiness and His Curia: Blessings and benedictions, I kneel upon your holy presence, just as any other faithful subject of our Lord GOD would upon the realization of the spiritual presence of those who serve God almighty and his Vicar, the High Pontiff, the Head of our Faith. I write you this humble letter with sorrow upon hearing that the Sons of Horen have decided to take arms against their own brothers and sisters in faith once again. Upon realizing the existence of the current conflict, I undoubtedly feel spiritually obliged to ask myself some questions as an ordained clergyman of our holy faith: When will this bloodshed cease? When will the Sons of Horen finally unite under the Holy Light and the Holy Cross of GOD once again? When will peace, order and stability be upheld, not just in the Heartlands, but in all Humanity as a whole? And, especially, I feel compelled to ask myself the following question: Will our Holy Mother Church officially denounce the ongoing pagan and foreign invasion against the sovereignty of a Canonist Realm? Because, make no mistake, the people of Norland and Urguan, who fight alongside Ravenmire in the war, do not profess our holy faith. Instead, they profess false religions and worship false gods. And they hate our religion as much as they hate our Holy Pontiff and His Curia. While I really appreciate the most recent call for peace issued by our Holy Mother Church in the missive On War in the East, I humbly believe that such a missive is clearly insufficient in order to successfully defend our holy faith from the ongoing pagan invasion against our Canondom. After all, this unprecedented attack on the Apostolic Kingdom of Aaun is not simply an invasion against a sovereign country but an invasion on all Canondom as a whole. These foreign pagan invaders shall not cease upon their success in this war. Once they manage to successfully conquer the Apostolic Kingdom of Aaun, they shall continue their campaign until the last of our canonist villages is pillaged and sacked, until the last of our holy chapels and cathedrals are desecrated and burnt down, and until our last ordained clergymen is captured and killed. Because, I assure you that such is the behavior of these vile pagans who reject Canonism and, instead, worship red demons and other false divinities. I implore you to protect the Covenant of Purity and defend our faith. I humbly ask you to denounce these pagan invaders and their vile intentions and declare a Holy Crusade against the Grand Kingdom of Urguan, the Kingdom of Norland and any other pagan groups who seek to attack and invade our beloved Canondom. Signed, Father Marc, Priest of the Holy Mother Church.

"THE PERTINAXI REIGN OF TERROR ENDS TODAY!" proclaimed the Nauzican Brigadier Alexander Darkwood "Adelburg remembers!" he added, in a reference to the brutal Coup of Adelburg perpetrated once upon a time by the Pertinaxi, before signing the Cross of Lorraine.

bro I discovered LOTC thanks to these videos!!!

The Nauzican Brigadier Alexander Darkwood, a loyal subject of the Crown of Aaun, delivered the following remarks upon hearing of the declaration of war from Ravenmire: "It is not the first time that we, the loyal Alstionites, suffer an unjust foreign invasion to our sovereign country. His Imperial Majesty John I Frederick Horen, founder of the line of Alstion, already suffered an unprecedented Urguanite invasion three years after his ascension to the Throne of Man in the Imperial City of Felsen in 1526. And yet, against all odds, we did not retreat from our rightful position. Instead, we conquered the world, and brought the Urguanites back to the distant lands where they came from." The Nauzican then unsheathed his sword, pointing outwards towards the north and stated: "We shall defend the Apostolic Kingdom just as we once defended the Johannian Empire many centuries ago! Come, Lord of Ravenmire! The Nauzican Brigade is waiting for you! The Justice of Horen awaits you!"

Initially, Father Marc rejoiced and began to announce Orenia's restoration throughout all Aevos, before realizing that something was not right in this proclamation "Nevermind..." he said, disappointed, throwing the missive into the fire immediately afterwards.

In the Apostolic City, Father Marc would nod at the Archbishop's missive and deliver the following remarks to his colleagues: "There is a lot of wisdom in Cardinal Albarosa's words. The Great Deceiver wants us to be politically divided and weakened in faith and spirit. Even though our heartlandic realms may now be divided we must not forget that our ancestors also struggled in a similar way as we do now and that they ended up overcoming, just as we will now endure as long as we remember the teachings of the Holy Scrolls of the Canon and the examples set forth by our Exalted Prophets. Rejoice, brothers and sisters, for there is hope in the Heartlands and in Humanity as a whole! Amen!"

"Thank you, Solebron, for your services to our Kingdom." said Brother Marc, upon hearing of the Domus Ministri's retirement.

Unaware of the identity of Tiberias, Alexander Darkwood initially thought about inviting Tiberias to a cup of coffee on a public tavern to know more about his plans and ideas, but immediately gave up on the idea when he read the explicit threat on his King's life contained in the letter addressed to King Charles II. "Oren..." he simply said, making a pause "....Oran....Orange!" he said, completing his wording "I would like to order an orange juice to drink, thank you." he said to a manager of the Whitespire's tavern, where he was staying, before feeling relief upon receiving his natural fruits drink after a long day of hard work.

"May someone take inspiration from the old imperial institutions of the Holy Orenian Empire, they shall find my eternal recognition and admiration. After all, if a system already works, there is no point in changing it." said the Imperial Orenian Brother Marc upon hearing of the concerns expressed by a certain Sythaerins.

Brother Marc nodded upon reading the missive issued by the Holy Pontificate and the Canon Princes of Petra and Aaun "May this peaceful split of the Crowns of Petra and Aaun be the start of a new age of peace and prosperity for the Heartlands and all the Sons of Horen. So help us God. Amen." he prayed.

Upon reading the missive issued by King Charles II, Alexander Darkwood would feel proud of being a Heartlander and a loyal subject of His Majesty the Apostolic King of Aaun. "For the Heartlands! Unity above all! Long live the King!"

"For Marna! For the Heartlands! For the Republic!" cheered the Golden Dragoon Alexander Darkwood upon seeing the propaganda poster illustrated by Albert-Goulielmos de Rosius.

The Golden Dragoon of Marna Alexander Darkwood frowned upon reading the Archtraitor's missive "Courteis Hale was empty. There was nobody there. No lives were lost during the arsoning of such place. Your lies are the evidence that our cause is righteous and pure. There is no place in the Seven Skies for liars! Cowards!" he said, referring to the Queen-Emeritus Renilde and her allies.

DECLARATION OF FEALTY WHEREAS it has transpired that the current Queen of the Petra has been deemed a traitor to the Confederation of the Heartlands by the Brigade of Marna; WHEREAS it has been revealed that the current Queen of the Petra holds no legitimate claims to the Throne of the Kingdom of the Petra due to her bastardy; WHEREAS His Highness Prince Paul Temesch of the Petra is the rightful heir to the Kingdom of the Petra following the illegitimacy of the current reign of the false Queen of the Petra and her line; THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED, in order to uphold the ancient law of primogeniture of the Kingdom of the Petra, that I, Alexander Darkwood, Golden Dragoon of Marna and loyal subject of the Crowns of the Petra and Aaun, do hereby recognize and swear fealty to HIS MAJESTY PAUL I AS KING OF THE PETRA. LONG LIVE THE KING! Signed, Alexander Darkwood, Golden Dragoon of the Brigade of Marna.

"Death to the traitors! Glory to the Confederation! For the Heartlands!" exclaimed Alexander Darkwood, upon reading the missive issued by the Lord Chancellor of the Heartlands, before adding: "For Marna! Glory to its Protector, Tiber of the Nauzica!"
