Yargh, where be the cards

The militant Prince of yore, Evar'tir Oranor, could not help but revel at the proclamation on his return ride home. Something about the headache that pulsated at his temples was all too familiar; the drawl of diplomacy was not yet lost on the man.

Tilruir'tir never fancied himself a national. Patriotism was thrust upon him from a young age, and he had grown to resent the very idea of it in his middling years. Now, on the cusp of a new Elven age, he could not help but enthrall himself at the shortcomings of the enemy. Things would be different. Things would be better. That alone brought him solace.

Born to a soldier, raised to be a soldier, life lived as a solider; Tilruir'tir had endured the most reprehensible conditions during his servitude-- many of which had been alongside the Prince of Gladewynn. They were compatriots from a young age, and he considered himself quite fond of the comradery. The bond forged in the harshest of marching conditions-- sleet, hail, enemy assault-- proved insurmountable in the face of adversity. - With each advance, deflect, and approach, the duelists rang true throughout the throne room, and in Tilruir'tir's grasp was his brother's necklace. The trick was cruel. Possession, enacted by some Numendain child whom could have not possibly known better. His thumb ran over the pearls of the apparel with growing unease. Tilruir'tir considered himself privy to the outcome of the duel; victory was assured. Or so it was supposed to be. "Why did he do that?" In his heart of hearts, he could only assume the answer to be something adjacent to pride, as the Alderfolk were immense in their status. But the more he thought of the question asked, the more he failed to provide a true answer. It would certainly keep him up at night.

Tilruir'tir, no longer of Joma could do little to restrain the flood of emotion that overwhelmed him as Jack had passed in his arms. He was kin, through and through; from hours spent on watch in Luxem's Keep, to the escapades upon the Queen Dawn's Revenge throughout the years, now to Apotheosis and it's cruel machinations. He had set the young elf on the straight and narrow when direction was all he desperately sought. He had mentored him throughout the Inferic wars. He was instrumental to the Order; pivotal especially to Tilruir'tir. Now, with ordainment so unceremoniously wrought from Janus' agents, casting Jack to the wretched claws of time to draw his last, he found himself lost again.

im glad that this eventline is over so that squak can have more time for scp, just as xan intended

Evar'tir Oranor, whom had served in the coalition wars as a soldier under the Dominion of Malin, read the chronicle with great interest over his morning coffee and cigar. "A most fascinating report! If only the elves had historians of this calibre." He lamented to no one in particular. "Perhaps then we could avoid the troubles we have already endured."

Evar'tir Oranor, a Prince of yore regards the missive with a raised brow, running a rag over a waraxe before it was laid into a crate in preparations for the inevitable exodus from the realm.

i made this when someone was tos banned like a year ago for threatening to rape someone

activity checks are dumb and whatnot but if you're having mental breakdowns over activity and furthermore this server then genuinely step outside for once

Evar'tir Oranor regarded his generalized letter from his dock 'pon the southern shores of the Hinterlands. "The bastard's finally gone and done it." He commented amusedly, passing the note off to Velenius whom sat to his flank, once more taking up his fishing pole and casting a line. "We should visit soon."

Evar'tir Oranor in his retirement happens across the Urguani musings. "Possession of audacity." He snorted. "That's a good one. I'll have to borrow that."

Evar'tir, retired ecoterrorist, regards the missive on an evening stroll. "I hope whatever supplied all these tongues is okay." Pondered the man aloud, shuddering at the prospect of the arduous task of detonguing multiple birds just to prove a point, before returning to tend to his vegetable garden.

Grant, Soldier of Malin'or prepares the propaganda printing press (patent pending) for the upcoming conflict!

The Prince of Caras Eldar 10th of The Grand Harvest, 78 SA High Prince Evar’tir Oranor at the gates of Amaethea, Circa 44 SA (Art by Doroteya) ~ Preamble~ In my youth, I had always sought higher calling; Now, some odd couple centuries since the beginning of my service to the Dominion of Malin, at the precipice of a new Elven age, I can see I have played my part in the escapades of the Mali’ people well. With this in mind, it is time that my chapter as High Prince is turned to the annals of history.. I am eternally grateful for those who have stayed by my side during my reign, and especially for those who facilitated my rise to power. First, foremost, and most importantly, I thank my wife, Medli, for unyielding love, support, and loyalty, especially during my rule. For Feanor and Blackstar Sylvaeri, whom without both I would not have a nation to be enthroned to lead. To most of my councillors, past and present, for their service to the crown. To the Crown’s allies, for unwavering support in the face of adversity. And lastly to my compatriots and soldiers, for the continued reinforcement and assistance to feats which I could not accomplish single-handedly. ~ Principle ~ The following articles will remain in effect in perpetuity. ARTICLE I - Residency I). The residence of Mariners Dock 14 is to remain untaxed and unimpeded by the Crown of Amaethea and her surrounding vassals.. a). This shall apply to all future residences held by House Oranor. ARTICLE II - Titulars and Honourifics I). Usage of the title “High Prince” in the context of a succession to the Dominion of Malin is disallowed. II). The Crown of Amaethea under Oranor rule is recognized as the last legitimate successor state to the Dominion Malin. ARTICLE II - Government Affairs I). Evar’tir and Medli Oranor are to remain on the advisory council and all equivalents in perpetuity. Uell ito Maruthiran, Evar'tir Oranor, Prince of Caras Eldar, Praetor of Elves, Adjudicator of Malchediael The Prince signed off on the last edict in the waning hours of the eve, reclining in his chair after crossing his t’s and dotting his i’s. A long and fruitful reign had met its natural conclusion; now, after some odd centuries since his indenturement to the Mali’ people, Evar’tir Oranor had reached retirement. A fact lamented by some, and praised especially by his wife, who lounged a floor below in their statue home. The ‘ker arose to a stand, shedding his princely regalia and storing it neatly. The laurel crown which sat upon his dome was eased off, set aside. Though his heir would be hard pressed to receive the exact crown of his predecessor, a tradition christened by Evar’tir’s own predecessor. With his retirement set in motion, the towering ‘ker ducked out of his room to rejoin his wife. A harsh gale lashed the portside city, fierce waves assailing the foundations of Caras y’Tennallar. But inside the hearth blazed bright, a comfortable heat rising throughout the abode. Evar’tir shared a knowing smile to Medli as he eased his form down next to her. And at last, he could truly, finally relax.
