Balianese Intermission Adrian and Lorenz happen upon each other, the quiet of the night, the trees of the midlands bristling at peace, almost as if no war was going on in this land. Upon seeing the figure, and recognizing him, Adrian lifted his hands "You don't have a paper you want me to sign do you?" he'd ask, then laughing at his joke afterwards, a grin on his face. Years ago, they had met as young men, now decades later, They meet on the battlefield. "Not this time," he replied solemnly. "Years ago, I cautioned you about this mistake, cousin." Lorenz answered, his voice tinged with exhaustion and distress. "I know, I recall our talks in my Palatio's gardens." the Old man responded, "But we all knew this WAS inevitable. We just had to bid our time, until it was the right time." he'd state, "Look at how times have changed." he'd reminisce, "Look at how we've grown old. At least we can live to see the result of all that work come to fruition or an end." "Gathering a coalition of eight to restrain the beast that is Veletz doesn't exactly scream work has come to fruition," remarked Lorenz, who, like his cousin Adrian, was now entering his old age. He’d then change the topic, “How come you are not charging me with your blade right now?” The King paused, he hadn't an immediate answer for this question, he sat there for a moment, then shrugged, "Because when I announced myself, you didn't attack me. so I extend the same courtesy to you, cousin. After all..." he'd look over to the land, "There will be enough blood here soon enough, mine, yours.." he'd smile, "I value what little peace I can take in this time of war, wouldn't you agree?" he'd state, noticing his cousins state, "After all, this could be our last talk together. A battle is coming and we've survived this long. The least we can do at the end is talk." "Balian could have been part of something greater than any current nation in Aevos. Though, I shall spare you today, and allow you to see the sun rise again, Adri. Farewell." "Then fare thee well, Lorenz Gavaudin." he'd state finally, a bit bewildered by the man's actions, but welcomed them, "Pray to GOD for working with the Anethema." he'd then pause, as he departed, he remarked to himself quietly, "There may be so many Novellens in this day and age. but there are so few good ones." he'd mutter, “In a different world, we would have been the finest of friends.” WARCLAIM Wargoal: COMPLETE ANNEXATION [Attacking tile 15 from tile 22 for a field battle per 60th’s ruling] Attackers: The Kingdom of Haense, the Kingdom of Balian, the Commonwealth of Petra, the Viceroyalty of Hyspia, the Grand Kingdom of Urguan, the Kingdom of Norland, the United Kingdom of Aaun and the Kingdom of Numendil DEFENDERS: The League of Veletz and its Allies LOCATION/WARPATH: DATE: SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16TH, 2:30 PM EST
