The missive was straightened out, the masked woman letting out a light laugh of amusement. "So, the Vicar has fallen, seems I need to find a new avenue to walk down." The Oni hummed out, a smile behind that masked visage. She crumpled the missive into a ball before tossing it into a nearby fire. "We have work ahead of us, my dear."

The Oni, a dear ally to the one named Handil, let out a cackle upon the reading of his name. Truly, did she find this amusing. “Oh you poor soul.. your actions have at last caught up to you..” She cooed to no one in particular, for she was alone.

Plutoes.. I think its time to come to terms with it.. the rest of us have.. don't worry, we accept you for who you are. Toes included :)

The Oni, a high ranking figure within The Vicar’s forces, sat within her home drinking a nice glass of tea.“Yeah.. I’m not touching that.” The woman muttered, she had better things to do than attend some silly battle.

The Oni remembered this day vividly, a cracked smile growing upon their features. “What a busy day that was.. I’ll always remember it for it was the day I got you back.” They spoke to their comatose friend that lay dormant in the bed, setting the missive aside to feed them more rice water.

Mochou read the missive inside a blacked out home, the rooms filled with the stench of sick. She smiled, happy her group finally had a place of residence.

The renowned Charlotte ‘Barrow’ lifted a brow at the missive and quickly signed the Lorraine. “Goodbye papej, mamej.” She murmured, staring at the paper a few moments longer. “Barrow? Vy have disowned Y but Y had married out years prior. Vyr just selfish and bitter that Y left vyr cruel family. And Y do niet even get to attend their funeral..” The aging woman shook her head. “Niet like it matters. Y do niet remember them anyways.” Charlotte read the missive in front of her daughter Helena, though didn’t seem to even register her being there. For once, her pain and sorrow of the early onset dementia finally sunk in. “Y wish Y did remember vy..”

Princess Charlotte merely stared at the sky in the aftermath of the battle, wondering where her life has led her and if it was all worth it.

It was true that Mochou was growing irritated with the war. “The humans and orcs can have their war, but can they leave us out of it?! Can’t go anywhere anymore without getting confronted by bandits.” She tsked, irritated by the whole ordeal. “They need to finish this, I’m losing patience.” Soon, was the missive added to her campfire as fuel with the company of nothing but her voice and the crackle of the flames.

An elfess from near and far read the missive, intrigued by the humans and their politics.

Mochou observed the war from afar, only approaching to get a closer look. Humans were amusing to her and the orcs only proved that further.

Mochou walked throughout forests, visiting the near and far villages and kingdoms. With a parasol to block out the light, she smiled towards a missive pinned on a nearby board.

Princess Charlotte Stassion, even with her lack of memory, couldn’t get this song out of her head!

Julietta read the letter within her lab, grimacing before crumpling it up and tossing it into the trash. She didn’t feel sorry for the father that abandoned her, faked his death. Only bitter resentment.

Penned by The Majordomo C. 1955 INTRODUCTION Wardship, a venerable institution that has withstood the test of time, has played a crucial role for centuries in imparting not only formal education but also invaluable life lessons to individuals in their formative years. This time-honoured practice serves a dual purpose, benefiting both the mentor assuming the role and the ward placed under their guidance. The essence of Wardship transcends mere academic instruction, extending into the realms of mentorship and personal development. Through this age-old tradition, experienced individuals take on the responsibility of guiding and shaping the lives of those younger and less experienced. This mentor-mentee relationship is founded on the principles of knowledge transfer, character building, and fostering a sense of responsibility. EXPECTATIONS In the tradition of wardship, wards bear significant expectations, emphasising their need to be proactive and supportive. The success of the mentor-ward relationship relies on the ward's commitment to embody their mentor's virtues. This symbiotic relationship underscores the ward's role in upholding their mentor's principles. Wards actively engage in learning practical skills associated with their role, ensuring a comprehensive understanding. It is incumbent upon wards to ensure their mentorship journey doesn't burden mentors. They must seek guidance, complete tasks diligently, and show eagerness to learn, reinforcing mutual respect. This reciprocal dynamic contributes to the mentor's satisfaction, fostering a positive mentorship atmosphere. In essence, wardship demands active engagement and commitment from both parties, with wards playing a pivotal role in sustaining this venerable tradition. TYPES OF WARDS The term "ward" encompasses a diverse array of roles, constituting an umbrella term that spans various ways individuals can serve under someone. Examples include Ladies-In-Waiting, Maids of Honor, Assistants to Council Members, and more. Maids of Honor serve the Queen, while Ladies-In-Waiting serve the other lady royals. Despite the distinct nature of each role, common expectations persist across all wards. Whether one is in a traditional or administrative capacity, the fundamental principles of being proactive, supportive, and embodying the virtues of their mentor remain consistent. The universality of these expectations underscores the overarching commitment required from individuals serving in any wardship role, emphasising the enduring and versatile nature of the concept. POSITIONS OPEN The palace offers a variety of positions for individuals to choose from. These roles cater to different interests, allowing individuals to find a suitable position within its grand halls.

Princess Sophia is delighted upon reading the missive! After all, the more presents for her the better. She beamed, chasing her little brother down to show it to him as well. @sashimichopped”Look! It’s a gift exchange, isn’t that adorable?! You’re going to participate right?” The young Princess asked the even younger Prince, clearly excited.

MC Name: Ketamin_e RP Name: Charlotte Valentina Persona ID: 81213

Princess Sophia nodded along with the missive, showing it to her brother with that same dissatisfaction. @sashimichopped

Princess Sophia James, similarly, is quite upset regarding the absence of a column about the man! If there was, perhaps the man who told her to shut up would get ridiculed for it.. “This is all silly, I’m not even mentioned!” She shook her head, the little girl’s priorities elsewhere.

Princess Charlotte stayed behind in the matters that transpired that day. She thought staying at her sisters side was of more importance. She had no idea of what her father-in-law had planned. Still, she wondered where her future may lie. "Y should have seen this coming.." The aging woman muttered, penning a letter to someone of blood.

[!] Cries echoed throughout the streets of Aaun...
