Leon Barclay Barclaysmirked after forcing his fiancé to make the announcement, he then proceeded to take a picture with his redheaded Waldenian to-be-wife.

A fellow Leon would think the same thing.

Leon von Minitz continues eating his popcorn in amusement "This one really drew out the oldheads too" he wheezes

Leon von Minitz prepares to watch the raevs who only cared about the church for secular clout to mald and seethe with popcorn at hand

Leon Barclay blinks once and squints to see if he was looking properly... He was.

Leon von Minitz would scribble down another perspective, trying to get in the mind of the great Mini von Banard, the legend after whom his Barony was named:

"Why is the Fidei defensor backtracking?" wondered Leon with a shake of his head "Raevs only listen to and love the church when it fits their secular benefits" he said with a face filled with disgust, spitting on the ground "This proves it. At least have the bollocks to stand by your agreement... one with the High Pontiff out of anyone. Or if you'll act by your own accord despite the Mother Church's calling, then do it from the beginning and continue fighting as you were."

"The Sakrozic Steal" exclaimed a Barclay trader, nodding a few times in approval.

"In old Reinmaren history, there used to be one Lord Myni. He is said to have been able to rally enough soldiers to fill the entirety of Black Mountain, the tallest mountain of the Herceg Novi region in Banard." Leon Barclay would explain the deeplore thoroughly to his good Potte friend "Whenever this figure would appear, even the enemies of Reinmar bowed in respect. Hence the Barony is named after Myni, who in Waldenian is spelt 'Mini'. There even is a song which they warn that no one wants to see Myni go mental!" said the Barclay finally before beginning to sing said song:

Leon barclaysmirks whilst smoking a cigarette with his now Baronial cousin Dietrich. They reminisced on the history of Dietrich's father as Count of Freimark "Barclay Bargains always come full circle"

"One Raevski izrode at a time" nodded Leon as he prepared his metal ting

Leon prays for the senior citizen

The Reinmaren disspoet fixes his mistake!

OJ KARLI, KARLO War Song of Theoderic's Warband Oj Karli, Karlo! Father of the lilies The shortmen will also turn their back on you Oj Karli, Karlo! Take a cold shower Your friend Bakir is smiling to your face Oj Karli, Karlo! Degenerated Raev Philip will lead you thirsty across the water Oj Karli, Karlo!

Leon Barclay von Oren sharpens his sword within the Theoderican Watchtower in Acre, his eyes red, though it was unclear whether it from his bloodlust or from the Reinmar kush. "The raevs haben too much pride to back down. Wonder if I'll have to ask myself how the Fidei Defensor would allow this later."

"I love Acre and all its Accords!" smiles one of the Harvest Lords and Orenian investor, leaving the room full of money, still Barclaysmirking

Leon Barclay sits in a room full of money with Frederick I, Barclaysmirking

Upon waking up to the news within the Warband's watchtower in Acre, Leon Barclay frowned deeply as he shook his head "Unacceptable! Whoever tries something similar once more will know the wrath of the Harvest Lords!" he said, and would go to take another selfie with his Accord pals.

"Now this is an efficient way to tackle the issue, hm?" commented Leon Barclay with a content nod. "And then they say King Frederick is naught about this or about that. Shut your mouth..." he exclaimed, stopping himself from going om another long rant.

Leon Barclay smiles as his Amendment bill passes, even though at minimum quorum.

Leon found himself Barclaysmirking as he exited the Acrean castle alongside his fellow harvest lords.

Leon Barclay exited a particular office together with his cousin Dietrich Barclay. They had met another of their kin... but who?

THE ACCORD OF THE FIRST HARVEST ARTICLE I: On Recognition Upon the declaration of this alliance, the Viscounty of Rivia, the Barony of Acre, and Theoderic’s Warband, hereupon named “the Allies'', do pledge mutual allegiance to one another, recognizing and support one another claims to their respective authorities upon their people, lands, and titles. Thus agreeing that: Each Ally holds the only legitimate claim to their respective titles and authorities that come with them, as follows: The Viscount of Rivia and House of Galbraith as the only legitimate claimants of the Viscounty of Rivia, and any titles vassalized under them. The Baron of Acre and House of de Vilain as the only legitimate claimants of the Barony of Acre, and any titles vassalized under them The Theoderic’s Warchiefs as the only legitimate leaders of the Theoderic’s Warband, and any titles they might obtain. None of the Allies may claim legitimacy to any of the other’s two titles or lands. ARTICLE II: On Defensive Assistance The Allies do hereupon agree to provide military assistance to one another in the event of aggression towards any of the Allies, or in the event of pending aggression. The Allies do also agree to train their warriors together whenever the chance for such is given, thus enforcing the good relations between the Allies. Furthermore, the Allies agree to not engage in military recruitment within the other’s lands, or recruit any of the other Allies’ subjects, unless both Allies agree to such. These terms shall not be upheld if said aggressor or party pending aggression is his Majesty, the King of Oren. Neither will it uphold if the loyalty of an Ally towards the Crown of the Kingdom may be taken into question. ARTICLE III: On Trade Agreement and Exchange The Allies do hereupon agree to engage in open trade and exchange between one another. These include any materials produced by any of the Allies, be it crops, animals, metal, or weaponry. Each Ally may require the others to trade any produce, and all Allies do agree that such trade will be conducted in good will, so that all parties involved may profit. ARTICLE IV: On Travel and Legal Authority The Allies do hereupon agree to allow the free, unrestricted movement of one another’s subjects or warriors in their lands, without harassment or bother, lest the individuals traveling have been found to break the laws of the Kingdom or respective Ally. The Allies do also recognize the legal authority that each of them have in their respective lands. If an Ally’s subject is found to break the law within the land of another, the Lord of the land may trial them as they see fit. ARTICLE V: On Squires and Pages The Allies do hereupon agree to allow and engage in the exchange of squires and pages between the Noble Houses of Galbraith and de Vilain, thus fostering better noble relations with their heirs and pedigrees. Furthermore, Theoderic’s Warband does agree to allow any nobles sent by the other two Allies to temporarily join them in order to learn their ways of war. ARTICLE VI: On Diplomatic and Political Cooperation The Allies do hereupon agree to engage in both diplomatic and political cooperation with one another, doing so in good faith, aiming for mutual benefit. Neither of the Allies shall offer political support for any claimants to the Allies titles or lands. ARTICLE VI: On Duration The Allies do hereupon agree that the alliance is to last a period of ten years with the option of renewal or revocation upon expiration. The Allies do also agree that in the event of political change or turmoil, they may gather to rediscuss the agreements of the alliance, doing so in good faith.

"Aren't two of the signatories rather south for it to be called a northern treaty?" wondered Leon Barclay

Sometime after the publication, Leon, from his abode in Acre, would send Mathilda yet another parchment, giving it to one of the errand boys to deliver to the capital for a few mina and some of his farmed wheat. Along the contents of the letter, he'd attach the next bill he had finished working on. @valecu "COMPONENT V: THE BILL DEMONSTRATION ACT"
