As Waclaw stepped through the gates of the Seven Skies, three characters stood there - seemingly waiting for his arrival. "I left the House to you so you could finally grow up." Said Jan, the father of the late Count "I gave you my land so you could expand what you had." Added Heinrich, the Prince of Merryweather, cousin of the late Count "I gave you my support so you would never falter, and with all these three you have finished what father has started. Now you may rest." Concluded Waclaw's younger brother, Aleksander, before extending his arm towards him so he could finally join them and other deceased Jazlowieckis and their allies in the Seven Skies for eternity.

Charles frowned upon hearing the news "We spoke not too long ago Grandmaster. It is a real shame you had to answer the call so early. Rest easy." The Lord of Alba said before heading to the church to light a candle

"Let the people rumble. All those who spit at the Founders now, will soon forget and carry on with their lives while we will, hopefully, be the ones to pass the torch. They will forget just like they forgot about the fact that it was this Covenant that saved all our kingdoms from Veletzian rule of terror." Charles Alstion said before releasing a sigh, for all the young Crown Prince ever wanted was peace in his homeland

The Crown Prince of Aaun, Charles Alstion, read the announcement with a soft smile at his face "This has to be the first Royal Court since I was born! I must make sure to prepare myself for it, I cannot fail my royal father." The Lord of Alba said before running up the hundreds of stairs to reach his chamber at the top of the Hand of Horen

Charles Reman Alstion smiled upon receiving the invitation "Time passes so fast. We were children just a week ago..." He said with a sigh before penning a letter to the twin sisters

Charles Alstion, the Aaunic Crown Prince, sat in his chamber - reading the missive issued by the IMPERIAL SOCIETY, a soft smile curled up at the young Prince's visage as he thought of Empires old and new.

"Good cousins, set those sinners free." Charles Reman Alstion, the Crown Prince of Aaun, said as a copy of the issued declaration was brought to him

"In Aaun we have a saying, fool me once - shame on you..." @Balthasar@Caranthir_@LithiumSedai@seannie@Ramon

Charles smiled as he received his invitation "I will make sure to visit Velen a bit earlier than the party itself. I have not seen Konnie in a long while, we surely have a lot to talk about!" The Prince said joyously before moving on to penning some letter

Charles Alstion smiled as the invitation reached the Hand of Horen "I better start packing! Any excuse to visit my cousins in Reinmar is good!" The Lord of Alba said to himself before folding the paper in half and preparing his belongings

"Never falter son. You will achieve everything in time." Spirit of Heinrich II said from the Seven Skies, smiling the Sun's Smile

The young Lord of Alba, Charles, nodded as he read the missive "Now this is getting interesting. I am curious what the world will look like in a decade. Will they succeed, will they fall? Only God knows..." The Alstion said to himself before coming back to his standard chores within the Hand of Horen

Charles prepared his sleeping bag as well as a few other things for the upcoming sleepover "This is one of the best ideas I came up with. I pray the squatter won't be a problem." The Prince said as a soft sigh left his lips
