Marcella Barclay had been alongside Konstantin for some time now, and had gotten used to his eccentric behaviour, even bagan to enjoy them perhaps. She wondered for some time when he'd finally be done his work, and she realized as she heard the news, that she'd actually miss him and his antics.

[All art by me] The years that Viktoria was a part of, and the world she knew, it was surrounded by women that had no idea they’d make the world shake. They didn’t know that they’d change the world, and they all did it completely by accident. None had grand plans, schemes for power, or even yearned for influence. Growing up in these women's influence, in the wake of their actions, there was a large choice to be made by Viktoria. Watch from the sidelines and only be a mother, a prize, or to stand up and make ripples in the world of her own. Viktoria never found out why Queen Maya of Muldav had chosen her to marry Sigismund, and she was never sure if she was glad it was her or not. In fact, Viktoria started out how she saw princesses in fairy tales, but not a Queen. She grew up in floral dresses, hoping of making a difference but never sure how. Strong willed but nervous. Slowly, the delicate slippers turned to boots, floral skirts to pants, and careful words to a sword and shield. The world Viktoria would take part in ruling would be a gruesome and dangerous one, and it would chew up and spit out a lace wearing weak girl without a second thought. So she made it rethink. “I want to make a difference.” “I want to do something big.” A young Viktoria would once say to her father. She had watched the attempted assassination of the boy-King from the crowd. Watched and the switch flicked in her head as she decided she must be able to do something, decided that being a good person with decent dreams wasn’t enough, and she’d never settle for doing nothing. The promises of a child to herself however, would soon be questioned. The murder of Queen Maya of Muldav was sudden and unexpected, days after the coronation of her son. Viktoria found her as she bled out in her room, blood covering her dress and skin. Herself and Princess Amelya disposed of the body of her killer over the balcony- tossing him into lake Milena. Emperor Peter III would hear the news quickly, and come to the home of the woman he lusted after, a feeling not at all returned by the Late Queen Mother. “YOU THREW THE ******* BODY IN THE WATER?” The emperor screamed at the two young girls. “PREPOSTEROUS! IT WAS ONE OF YOU!” The two children cowered against the wall, as he turned his anger further on them. “I SWEAR TO GOD ABOVE, IF I AM NOT GIVEN SOMEONE TO HANG, I’LL CHOOSE THEM MYSELF!” The Emperor destroyed the room of the dead Queen. Broke furniture, slammed his fists repetitively against the stone walls, and continued to scream in his unwarranted grief. As quickly as the storm of an Emperor came, it left. The Barbanov family alone to mourn the loss, and a young Ruthern to fill the shoes of a legend at twelve. The funeral was rapid, and rainy. Those from all over the Empire came to pay their respects, and spoke in front of them all. The next years were hard and awkward, Viktoria and her betrothed had barely spoken in the first place, and now there was no guiding light between the two. Only the promise their parents had made and a date; Her sixteenth birthday. They mostly floated around each other, Sigismund leaving Viktoria to take his mothers role in court and the palace despite not being married to him yet. It is said that the pair never fell in love, but joined together to fight the enemies of their Kingdom. Soon after their wedding, the Scyfling invasion began. Viktoria turned fully into the warrior she became known for. Following the army into every altercation and battle she could be involved in, living in Fort Buck, and interacting with the soldiers. Some even say that the Scyfling war was the happiest period of Viktoria’s life, when she truly felt part of something bigger, and like she could make a true difference. She kept a secret through the beginning of the war, her pregnancy with her first child. Finally revealing it to her cousin before charging head first into a battle, the push through the Wickwald to save Valwyck. The Queen kept her condition a secret from the whole world, as she feared she’d be sent home, sidelined. When she knew she could no longer hide it, Viktoria went home. Her time at home would prove dangerous still, as an altercation with her brother in law, Nikolas Barbanov, a group of his friends and Viktoria would take place in the woods. “Here if fine” he says, turning “The town is far too crowded.” A group of armed men would surround Viktoria in the forest, wielding daggers and jeering at her. “Halt amself!” Viktoria would cross her arms, letting out a sigh as she kept her gaze on Nikolas. “Now what, Nikolas?” Nikolas looks at the men, though his expression would seem rather unsurprised. He would look at Viktoria, speaking slowly “Vy lead the academy, but it is not the only place that lessons are taught.” The group would brandish their weapons, making faces at the obviously pregnant Queen. “The lesson I am teaching vy is that vy are not my superior. Vy do not command me. Vy do not touch me. For I vill take the hand that strikes me, whether it be from outside of Haense or within.” Viktoria would look towards the man closest to her left, going to reel back and then punch him. The man would take the punch to the face, as Nikolas would snap his fingers and the group would run away “Remind me to not go on walks with you, Nikolas.” “Safe travels home, vy Majesty. Ve are even now.” The war raged on for years, and Viktoria lost much. The Queen handled giving birth four times throughout the war, attending a naval battle the day after the first, a spear next to her pregnant stomach, shot, stabbed, lost an eye, and defended her countly home of Metterden twice, leading its defense personally in the latter instance. Despite her injuries, hardships, and faults, Viktoria was in her element during the majority of the Scyfling conflict, and enjoyed the brotherhood that came with the army. The long, and hard Scyfling war would evidently not be the hardest part of her life. As Imperial tensions with the Sutican’s grew, and the Emperor declared war, Haense found itself in a situation it was most unhappy with. Their army was already fighting an invasion from the sea, but now was being asked to assist the Imperial State Army against Sutica as well. Evidently, this stress alongside past situations driving King Sigismund II to loathe the Emperor and his orders, ended in the monarchs untimely death by suicide. Leaving Viktoria alone pregnant with their sixth child, a Kingdom fighting two wars, and a nation divided by hate. In an attempt to quell the citizens of Hanseti-Ruska from their cries of tyranny and distaste for the Empire, the Princess Imperial, Anne Augusta Novellen, and Prince Nikolas Barbanov trapped Viktoria in a conversation to coerce her into publicizing a pre-written letter. “I write from a place of loss and sadness. My husband, the father to our six children, and my king, has taken his own life. I miss his humor, his touch, and his role as a father. It is with great sorrow to see him gone, but I will cherish the memories he left behind.” She read how the letter began, her stomach churning as she read wordings that’d clearly never come from herself. She was disgusted as she read it. How could they have misunderstood her this much? They were trying to force her to write some sob story to save their asses from the anger of her people. Trying to use her grief and her story to quell their resentment. She would not do it. “How dare you. How dare you try to write something for me.” She snarled at the Princess and Prince. “You could re-write it yourself,” The Princess Imperial answered calmly. “That is niet the point! You know that. It’s niet about it being a draft, it’s about bringing me up here, and pressuring me for a decision on something you won’t even explain to me what you want, then having the audacity to think you know enough about how this feels to write a skuking draft of a public letter on it.” The widowed Queen would seethe back, as they continued to jabber towards her. “I’m keeping this, it’s somewhat amusing how you think I think, Nikolas. And thank you for thinking that some sob story letter from me will change much, but I will niet be writing one.” Viktoria would stand after folding up the letter. “For what purpose, your Majesty?” asked the Princess Imperial. “For the purpose that I will speak on my own behalf, on my own initiative, when I would like to, for the purposes that I would like to. I would much rather move on with my life and focus on the future than the legacy of a man that left me with six fatherless children.” Anne Augusta stood up immediately, “To focus on the future is to write this paper, to move on is to write this paper.” “He was a King, Viktoria. He was yours. You cannot abandon him now. It is your duty as a wife to defend his memory” “HE. ABANDONED. ME!” The echoing of the shout of anger would be heard across the palace, even by Viktoria's eldest daughter. She never wrote the letter, nor did she give back Nikolas’ “draft.” She continued on, and gave birth to her sixth child, Franz Leopold, previously planned to be named Franz Nikolas by her husband. Viktoria would carry a new trouble with her alone, she was never truly meant to be a mother and now she had to raise six on her own, and give birth after their father was already buried in the ground. It was difficult, and Viktoria was out of her element. She focused more on her work as Deputy Palatine and helping run her child son’s Kingdom than raising her children, and they of course felt the consequences. She walked the world confused but determined, and felt like she was floating as she tried to find who she was again, as she was thrown into a role she had never wanted. Being alone, and a new type of fighting. Fighting her own instincts and wants, to run off and go to battle. She was a woman that never wanted to stay home with the children, but now she had six begging her to stay, to put down the sword in case they lost her too. As her children grew up, Viktoria had kept them alive. She wasn’t a good mother, but she got them through for the most part. When the Inferi war began, Viktoria looked between her now half-grown family, and the opportunity to go and fight again. She chose the one her heart yearned for. The inferi battles were terrifying after having experienced only nation or human wars. The inferi were larger, and scarier than any scyfling Viktoria had encountered. In the second battle she attended, the assault on Korvassa, a large creature knocked rubble down on the Haeseni group, trapping Viktoria and others below a pile of brick and shingle. Her daughter, Nataliya, dragged her out frantically once they were able to. On the Norlandic ship she was carried to, Viktoria lost an arm and a leg. She felt worthless, she felt destroyed. But she refused to be finished, and she refused to let it show. “I accepted that this could happen a long time ago. We all accept that we can get hurt every time we strap on armor and step into the battlefield.” With the assistance of her youngest child, Viktoria was fitted with metal limbs within the year. She did not miss a battle with the inferi. She boarded the same Norlandic ship that she had her arm and leg amputated, and fought alongside them as they attacked an inferi vessel, and overtook it as their ship sunk. Viktoria went to the claiming of Al’Faiz, and fled with the Haeseni as the city of New Reza was leveled by falling comets. She watched as her city and home was destroyed. Upon the founding and construction of Karosgrad, the older Viktoria became confused and lost. She was still Viktoria, still the same fiery woman that refused to back down; but she wasn’t where she was meant to be. She stayed to herself in the last decade of her life, as her body slowly degenerated and metal limbs became harder to lift as she lost the muscle she once had. Viktoria was fading away physically. She had a heart attack after the riots against the church in Karosgrad, and was confined to rest. “I want to take a nap.” Viktoria said to Irene, who had been helping her since she had been ordered to rest. “Are you sure you don’t want me to stay, Vik?” she looked at Viktoria worriedly, concerned for her sister. “Ai.” Viktoria laid down in bed, and awaited the departure of her sister, and then a few moments. After the echoes of footsteps ceased, and the Queen knew she was alone, she groaned as she pushed herself up and out of bed. She didn’t reach for her carved cane, but for her sword. Viktoria supported her metal limb with her old sheathed weapon, and made her way out quietly from her chambers, down the stairs, out through the grand hall, and to the gardens behind the city. There, she unsheathed her sword and began to swing the cared-for blade against a tree, her remaining eye narrowed as she grew frustrated from her rustiness. After a couple hours out in the gardens, swinging at a tree, or a bush, Her breath grew more laboured, Her hands began to shake, And her chest began to ache. The Queen sunk to the ground as her sword remained sticking from the ground. “Viktoria!” Irene called as she rushed wide eyed down the path to her collapsed and unmoving sister. “Viktoria!” Her sister held her then, as she let out a few rasping breaths as her heart failed her. Irene pulled the sword from the ground, and wrapped Viktoria’s fingers around its hilt. “Irene…” “Irene, I’m done, I’m ready.” The Queen would give a small smile, and a final uneasy breath would be released. The warrior queen had fought and lost her last battle; Her own failing body. Life is not some promise. It owes you nothing, No time, joy, or protest. It is unfair, unyielding. Death however, Is much more reliable. Affirmed, guaranteed. Everything vowed to death, Every moment assured to end. The time is set, life will end, No trades, deals, or switches. You may think you cheated death, But no one may. Your end is coming, No matter what you say. Your lovers die, Your memories fade, Homes burn down, Cities fall, Friends say farewell. Time is unwasted, It’s not your choice. It comes and goes, Spend it well, Because the end always comes. VIKTORIA SOFIYA BARBANOV 1750 - 1802

Pokemon me pls

Haense has been extremely close to my heart this map, I rejoined right at the beginning of the AIS war, and the welcoming, and unique community really made me feel a part of something. We’ve had some amazing times this map, and of course, some not so great ones. I’ve seen Haense grow, change, and sometimes even fail. I wanted to commemorate Haense this map, and our community. I started gathering screenshots for this in a discord about a week or two ago, and since then, we had 690 individual screenshots sent in, not counting those I was given in DM’s, or those that I asked to be taken specifically. New Reza was not pretty, we all know that, but it was home for this map, and we sure as hell made the best of it. Therefor, I am happy to present to you, all of the reasons I love Haense, OUR MEMORIES OF REZA I could not have done this project without help, and I had quite a lot of it. I know I did some thank you’s to the community and for things around Haense in the video, but I have a few FOR the video. I had three people running around getting me screenshots when I needed more, or for something specific. Thank you Nathan, for a lot of screenshots in the initial gathering discord, for helping take a lot of family photos, the King and Queen ones, and some for the community. Thank you Nickrocky for coming over and taking some of the community photos, so none of our guys would have to sit out just to make sure the photo was fancy, it was a pain in the ass and we managed to crash the server by someone turning us into llamas, it was pretty cool. Thank you Pepsi, for being a screenshot goon for me when I needed either really specific, or really random screenshots. Both of the text backgrounds are from him, and I love them both, of course that is far from all he got me. I would’ve hated this if I had to sort all of the screenshots I had gotten by myself, so Thank you Juli, for helping me moderate and sort out our discord of over 700 screenshots into correct categories, and if they were able to be used, or if they were unfortunately not. I wish I could’ve put them all in, but as everyone can see, this project ended up over 10 minutes long and I don’t think I used over 3/4ths of the screenshots. HUGE thank you to SemiColin for the custom buck animation, that thing is so cool, and I think this would’ve been majorly incomplete without both a buck animation, and something commemorating the end of the map. Hopefully the end of Reza is as peaceful as it looks in the animation. Big thank you to Unbaed for letting me use her Haeseni artwork in the beginning, they’re so beautiful and I think they open it up really nicely. Thank you to all of the Haeseni Nation Leaders and Queens from this map for bothering to log on and put on old skins to hang out for our photos, that was so cool to see everyone together again. And thank you to every single person that contributed screenshots, were in said screenshots, bothered to come to our big community ones, and who just in general make Haense such a fun and nice place to be. Sincerely, Thank you!

Queen Mother, Viktoria Barbanov would smile as she read the paper a final time, folding up her copy, and setting it next to the gravestone of her late husband, King Sigismund II, who had dreamed of a Haense that had no limits, and could be itself free of the ideals and wishes of someone above them.

Honours and Medals of HANSETI-RUSKA Written and published by HRM Viktoria Sofiya of Metterden, Queen Consort of Hanseti-Ruska Msitza and Dargund 327 ES THE HIGHEST HONOURS THE GOLDEN CROW OF VALOR Symbolized by a golden crow on a black field, the Golden Crow of Valor is the highest medal available in the Haense Royal Army. It is given to those that performed far beyond what is expected, a miracle through god to Haense. The medal given and pinned by the King Himself. THE QUEENS CROSS The golden medal itself made up of a crown encircling a sword, the Queens Cross is given to those brave enough to step out despite their own best interest, and to save another. The medal of Valor is given out by the Queen Herself, to both Soldiers and Citizenry that show great valor and courage to save the life of another. MEDALS OF HONOUR AND ACTION THE CROSS OF ST.KARL A golden cross with the initials K.B. inscribed into it, the Cross of St.Karl is only given out posthumously. Not simply to those who die in battle, but those that die in battle as a martyr in service of the Kingdom. The Cross is named after St. Karl Barbanov, the progenitor of the Haeseni State THE CROSS OF WOLDZMIR A golden Hussariyan Cross on a circular white background, the Cross of Woldzmir is a medal given to those who have defended their brothers in faith against tremendous odds while facing those of opposing religion. The Cross is named after the famed warrior-woman Saint Emma Vladov and her strategic powers during the Schismatic wars of 1490. THE SPARROWS VALOR A black flying sparrow across a yellow shield, the Sparrows Valor is given to those who have proven capable of leading men. It is named after Saint Thomas of Gaekrin, the once Crown Prince of Kaedrin who led countless victories in conquering the Elven State of Malinor, and defending against the invading Dwarven Armies of the First Human-Dwarf war. THE VYDRIAN BANNER A red gryphon on a black banner, ordained in gold, the Vydrian Banner is awarded to the men who rally and defeat a greater force against all odds. It is named after the Late Orenian King Andrik Vydra, who took a broken Akovian people and led them to victory against the violent hordes of Schismatic Heretics, Orcish screamers, and Dwarven legionaries. A nearly impossible accommodation to achieve, but a great honour. THE BULWARK OF TOBIAS A red and black tower overlaying a grey shield background, the Bulwark of Tobias is awarded to those who have shown great acts of valor during a defensive siege. It is named after the famous defense of Mount Augustus led by Tobias ‘Rosebud’ Carrion during the Orenian Civil War of 1456. THE CROSS OF OUTSTANDING SERVICE A golden shield background with the black silhouette of a soldier holding his sword high in the air with obvious pride. The cross is given to those soldiers that preform beyond what is expected for the sake of the Kingdom. They are the first out the doors of the barracks doors, the first with their helmets on, and the first on the field. These are the people that we need in the Haense Royal Army, that we depend on. BATTLE SPECIFIC MEDALS THE TWO EMPERORS STAR Two golden crowns, one rightside up and one under it, upside down, on a silver star. The medal was given to veterans that participated in the War of Two Emperors. THE SIEGE OF REZA MEDAL A golden medal with the image of the City of New Reza with a victorious Brotherhood Soldier standing over it, carrying a Golden Crow. The medal was awarded to any who fought in the defense of New Reza, Haense, against the Alliance of Independent States. The siege was considered a success as the city never fell to the AIS. THE HANGMANS BRIDGE STAR A golden star with the silhouette of Hangmans Bridge. A medal of service during the AIS war, for a victorious field battle at Hangmans Bridge outside of New Reza, given to the soldiers that participated in the battle. THE VASILAND STAR A star with a golden serpent wrapping through it, the Vasiland Star was given to those that fought to regain the taken keep of Vasiland in 1771. The seat of House Vanir was initially overtaken by the Scyfling Invaders, before multiple attempts and a year-long siege was enacted to retake the keep.

ARMY RECRUITMENT RIBBON A ribbon given to those who actively recruit for the HRA. RESOLVE SERVICE RIBBON A ribbon given to those who have served a minimum of 8 years within the Army.

GAME OF ‘WEO OVARE?’ BY COUNTESS ALEKSANDRA STAFYR Instructions penned by QUEEN MAYA OF MULDAV Weo Ovare?, or Who is it? in the common tongue, is a Haeseni guessing game that can only be played with two players. The game was originally created for the Royal Academy of Saint Catherine to assist students in historical studies, but is open to anyone. A deck of 12 cards with Kings, Queens, and Palatines is used between both game participants. The game is meant to not only be for enjoyment, but to assist in the learning of Haeseni notable figures and history. Whoever guesses the person / card their opponent has first, wins! Weo Ovare? | Who is it? - How to Play To begin playing Weo Ovare?, take the deck of 12 cards and lay them directly in front of you, but where your opponent cannot see. The cards will be labelled with numbers 1-12, all with different names and descriptions of Kings, Queens, and Palatines of Haense. Both players will then pick one card from the deck. The card that you choose will be who your person is, and your opponent will do the same. Set your card aside from the other 11 cards. Be certain to read the description on your card. You and the other player will both take turns asking questions to narrow down which card the opposer has. Once you believe you have figured out who the other person is, you are welcome to try and guess when it's your turn. If you are wrong, your turn is skipped and you do not get to ask another question. If you are right, you win. EXAMPLE: In this example, PLAYER 1 has Palatine Robert Sigismund and PLAYER 2 has Reza of Turov. Player 1 - Was your person ruling in the 1600s? Player 2 - No. Player 1 - (removes all cards of people who were not ruling in the 1600s and sets them aside) Player 2 - Is your person a man? Player 1 - Yes. Player 2 - (removes all female cards from their deck and sets them aside) The game continues on from there, with questions getting more specific and particular as the game progresses. Players will continue this cycle of taking turns and asking questions up until a player guesses their opposer’s card correctly. Rules of the Game ♦ Do not look at the other player’s cards. ♦ Only ask yes or no questions. ♦ Avoid asking if the other player’s card is a Queen, King, or Palatine (all other yes or no questions are fine). ♦ Take turns between you and the other player. ♦ Do not ask for outside help when playing. QUESTION EXAMPLES: ♦ Was your person part of a war? ♦ Did your person die peacefully? ♦ Was your person a male? ♦ Did your person have less than 4 children? ♦ Did your person rule in the 1600s?

Card 11 - ROBERT SIGISMUND BIHAR Prince Robert Bihar was Lord Palatine from 1642, beginning the position for King Otto II, and held the position through King Otto III. After the death of King Otto III in 1655, Prince Robert left for 25 years, though returned to the position of Lord Palatine for his son, King Sigmar I in 1677. During his tenure under his son, the elderly palatine was greatly known for explosive and sudden bowel movements, even during important meetings. After his son, King Sigmar I’s death, he continued as Lord Palatine for his grandson, King Robert I, until giving up the position in 1688 due to health decline. He passed away in 1701 due to measles. Card 12 - RICKARD BARROW Rickard Barrow was the first Lord Palatine of the newly created Kingdom of Haense. Gaining the position in 1578, he served King Peter I, and was known for his great involvement with both the military, and the state. It is said that Rickard Barrow was immensely popular among the soldiers and nobility alike, and commanded the Haeseni forces directly for the newborn realm. He continued to serve as Lord Palatine two years into the reign of King Andrik II until 1584. Though he remained highly influential and directly opposed the new King in his attempt at rebellion against the Holy Orenian Empire.

To not just focus on the negative section of this, I honestly think we need to give Korvic a HUGE round of applause, even if he can’t currently use what he’s been working on due to things he can’t control. That is a giant undertaking for one person, and we’re so lucky to have someone like him around that’d be willing to even try to tackle that alone.

I’m glad that I came back to the server in time to meet you, and even get to know you at least a bit. Be well, and farewell my dude.
