  1. The former Baroness of Thurant bobbed her head as the read the missive, "With Godans guidance we will rebuild stronger than before. Long live the Koeng."

  3. Katrin I. Eryka Stafyr had heard from the riders sent forth about the lost battle. Together with the rest of her kin and those who did not ride into battle, she awaited the return of what remained of the Kings army. One by one she saw her kin ride or be carried through the gates. First, her Uncle Thondorus "the younger" on foot, covered in blood, limping. The Artisté accompanied his injured son and Katrins Kusin, Konrad Leopold Stafyr.. however the Former Treasurer was nowhere to be found. "Licent, Honorem, Pietas." the Bossira mumbled as she signed the Lorraine Cross. After her visit to the hospital she returned to the Chapel in Thurant and prayed through the entire night. "May you welcome him into your arms, Godani." As she emerged from the Chapel the next day, she swiftly ordered the preperations for the recovery and funeral of the fallen Falcon.
  4. *The Bossira Katrin I. of Thurant smiled as she sat in her study, satisfied with her work. A sigh escaped her lips as she placed down her quill.* "Now its time to prepare for Suntrzug Eve!" *she hummed, making her way down the stairs and to the kitchens.*
  5. *Somewhere in the Free City of Hohkmat a historian drafts up the first edition of the history of House Reinhold.* "And they were very close, even the best of friends. It is said that they even shared one room" *she mumbled as she continued her scribbling*
  6. ON ARCHITECTS AND ARCHITECTURE OF HANSETI-RUSKA: THE DUCHY OF REINMAR The Path to Sankt Johannsburg, 502 E.S. Penned by THONDORUS THIGES STAFYR On this 12th day of TOV AG YERMEY of 503 E.S. PREFACE The Manors and Keeps surrounding the Capital City of Valdev are nothing less than a representation of the House itself. Apart from their function to protect the lands they reside above they are often utilized to represent the families cultural roots, too. My mother Elia Eryka, a master architect herself, successfully made sure that this interest was passed onto me. This series of missives will be my account on the Seats of Houses that represent the Haeseni nobility. The Barclay Rosefields LOCATION The Castle Sankt Johannsburg is a testament to both the architectural prowess and indomitable spirit of its architect. Established in 493 E.S. by the Visionary Josefina Barclay it is perched atop the tallest hill of the region, guarding the King’s road from those who wish to reach the realms capital Valdev. Constructed from solid stone, the castle’s imposing walls exude an air of invincibility, much like the castle itself, standing as a guardian and monument to the unwavering spirit of the House Barclay. The courtyard can only be reached by climbing the staircase to the portcullis, underlining the defensive character of Sankt Johannsburg. Each step serves as a reminder of the resilience enemies will have to muster to reach the heart of this stronghold. Amidst the castle’s imposing structure, the southeast hillside offers an enchanting spectacle of roses. The Barclay’s family’s famous trademark carried over from their Seat in Karosgrad. This garden blooms vividly, adding a touch of delicate beauty to the castle’s stern visage. This enduring contrast between strength and elegance further solidifies Johannsburg’s unique character. The Great Hall ceilings INTERIOR Upon entering the courtyard guests are greeted by a display of flowerbeds and solider going about their day. It is here that the transformation from stern stone exterior to opulent wood, fine carpets and exquisite chandeliers becomes evident. The shift from the stony shell to its richly appointed interior showcases the meticulous attention to detail of the architect. The interior is a harmonious blend between grandeur and homeliness. Wooden ceilings, masterfully woven carpets and well-placed greenery create an inviting atmosphere. Sankt Johannsburg is not merely a fortress but a place where life unfolds. Josefina Barclay understands to utilize layout and design to make effective use of the available space. Clear divisions within the courtyard lead visitor through a sequence of areas. The great and feast hall offer a suitable space for hosting lavish gatherings, and the relic gallery serves as a poignant reminder of the Barclay’s rich past. The chapel, on the other hand, provides a serene and reflective sanctuary. The Library One of he most striking features during the tour is the castle’s celebration of its own history. The use of family colours within the interior design is particularly well-exectued, offering a seamless connection between the past and present, creating a profound sense of continuity and identity. Nevertheless, the crown jewel of Sankt Johannsburg is undoubtedly the library. Surpassing even Valdev’s renowned collection, it houses over four hundred books. The library’s design, marked by symmetry and detailed wooden panneling, imparts a sense of quiet dignity and intellectual pursuit. The shift in colour scheme to a rich, inviting red makes the underground library cozy and enticing, a place where one could easily spend hours. ARCHITECT’S COMMENT The Architect Josefina Barclay, 500 E.S. The decision to use stone as the primary building material for Sankt Johannsburg is a testament to Josefinas Barclay’s deep commitment to her family and their legacy. She explained, “Ea adore colour as much as the next person, but there is nothing better than stone for protection. This is mea gift to mea family, mea Lord. The best ea can offer. It will protect them long after Ea am gone [...]”. Her choice to build with stone, instead of the traditional red brick and terracotta used by the Haeseni was driven by the desire to provide the utmost security, ensuring that the castle would stand as an impenetrable fortress against any potential threat. Sankt Johannsburg is a great start into this series. The perfect example to show that the Seats of the Haeseni nobility are not simply a castle, keep or manor, they are a living monument, where the past and present intertwine seamlessly, offering a glimpse into the rich tapestry of our subcultures.

  8. Thondorus Thighes Stafyr sat upon a bolder outside the walls of Valdev, letter in hand. Tears streaming down his cheeks, leaving wet dots on the parchment. It was a dark day for him, so he decided to stay on said bolder and pair his pain with a bottle of red wine.
  9. Katrin Eryka Stafyr was heartbroken by the news of her mothers and twins demise... she could feel something shift in her as her brother drew his last breath, it was their connection severing.
