A CELEBRATION of CAMARADERIE 1785 IN THE SPIRIT OF UNITY— A fete of merriment shall be held in the coming saint days to celebrate the mending relationship between The Holy Orenian Empire and the Kingdom of Norland. Unity is essential in every range in our lives, and it is fundamental to sustain a country as it teaches its denizens to work in tandem. The concept teaches us to respect each other, and something that must be preserved. With this, the Dowager Grand Princess of Muldav and Queen of Norland deem it fit to hold a celebration for the ladies in The Midlands. Those who enter may frolic amongst the gardens, served with the finest brewed tea and delectable pastries. OOC: Saturday, September 12th 4:00 PM EST The Midland Steppes (x -71, z -1532) BEST REGARDS, HRM the Queen Consort of Norland, Anceliana Edvardsson de Astrea HSH the Dowager Grand Princess of Muldav, Eleanor of Sunholdt

In one of her usual bouts of impulsive journeys, a scholarly elfess had grasped onto the rumored passing of an old friend. There, Eveth perched herself on a ledge, overlooking the soft rippling sea of her home. Within her grasp was an aged present she kept from the woman—a stuffed toy taking the likeness of a feathery owl. A pained look set upon her countenance as she stared at it for a long while before panning back onto the water. A prayer was cooed, drawing a circle over her heart thereafter; “O' Haelun, y'kae oerneh suliera. ito suliera, iyul nae'leh illern'taynan ethere, Iyul divhiuw ito lae'leh/hae'leh taliiynan, divcerun'ehya ito hae'leh/lae'leh hiylun. Oerneh nae ito hileia lae/hae myumiera, ciwn'ehya uell. O' Maln, y'kae oerneh suliera. ito suliera iyul nae'leh illern'orran ethere, Iyul leyun ito lae'leh/hae'leh iheiuhii, lae'leh/hae'leh ehya taliiynan feta lentera. Oerneh nae ito Sirame lae/hae myumiera, cerun'ehya uell. nae iyl'hiylun, tenna eth, myumierala karinte, lae'ehya/hae'ehya Meracahe narna. taliyna ito nor, taliiyna ito vallei, tur ito malomii. Ahernal ito.”

Eleanor eyed the missive with knitted brows, wondering what on earth has been happening with her family. Pinching the bridge of her nose in slight vexation, she would only release a sigh while sliding the piece of parchment away form her gaze. Reading it bewildered her, as it stated she would be deemed dead upon being received the letter, yet she mentions returning.

It is the greatest grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone. A spiring princess sat upon her bed in her old room, reminiscing her childhood with David. She had heard of her beloved friend’s passing through word of mouth, her hand clutching firmly onto a worn gift he had given her when she was a decade old. Laid on the sheets next to her were other trinkets he had bestowed to her, a dour smile coming to her pallid countenance. Streams of silvery droplets dampened her cheeks as she began to weep, shaking her head slowly while she cooed to herself in unison.

In the confinements of her chambers, Eleanor Victoria had heard news of her father's departure towards the Korvassan desert. Trepidation struck the young princess, a frown etched across her pallid features. Cooing a small prayer while her head dipped low, her hand trailed over to her swollen abdomen where she emitted a hushed sigh. Resentment over her sire continued to linger, though she prayed he may come home to his kith and soon to be born grandchild.

Eleanor Victoria was clueless of the death of a kin, her mind however seemingly lingering on the state of her aunt. She had saw the fatal incident, her eyes widening with terror. It was a sight she could not bare, and would soon haunt her. Once hearing news of her passing, she retired to her room where she mourned.

Eleanor Victoria grinned toothily upon reading the missive, beginning to prepare for the masquerade in support for her Carrington friend!

Eleanor Victoria beamed with bliss upon receiving the missive of her older brother’s marriage. The union of two hearts beating as one, each that would sacrifice for the other’s happiness and wellbeing brought warmth to her own heart!

Eleanor Victoria giggles fervently upon receiving the missive, pleased to hear of the coupling and soon busies herself to prepare for the ceremony.

I love you so much, Archie, and I want you to know that I will always love you. I am always here for you and I’m so proud of you. Throughout these years I’ve never stopped doing so. I hold you close to my heart.

Eleanor Victoria d’Arkent smiled lavishly, a twinkle of gaiety in her eyes as she read through the missive with fervor. Spinning in thrill, she’d hold it up while plopping to her bed – trailing her fingers against the parchment while her smile broadened.

Eleanor Victoria d’Arkent sat peacefully in The Dragon’s Rest Tavern - sitting at its balconies with a piano book propped open at her hands. The youth perked up as she heard her name called by a familiar voice. It was her cousin Mary Lucille, asking her if she had heard of the news. Bemused, the young d’Arkent queried what she spoke of. What she had heard after broke her heart entirely. Her eyes fell back to the piano sheets - beads of water started falling down one after another, without a sign of stopping. Her lips trembled and her shoulders heaved with emotion, unwilling to back down. The girl’s lashes brimmed heavy with tears; hands clenched into shaking fists, in a desperate battle against the grief. The older d’Arkent pulled the young girl into a tight embrace in an attempt to lull the child. Her whole face was now washed with a dull red, including the very end of her nose. Eleanor whimpered to her cousin as Lucy offered words of comfort to the young kin, “Never let death prevent you from living. In the end, GOD has a way to make things right and I know Peter looks down and smiles at you. You must smile back.”

Eleanor Victoria nods to her mother upon the news, clapping her hands in eagerness for the tea party.

Eleanor d’Arkent pens a letter to her friend, affirming her attendance with the help of her mother, Princess Tatiana. A smile of delight spread across her visage, eager to attend the social gathering.

With the aid of her mother, the Princess Tatiana, Eleanor d’Arkent affirms her attendance, giggling as her mother maneuvers her hand, quill within it, over a parchment.
