Many years from now, not far from home…

“Been a while since we’ve seen yon round these ‘ere parts.” The innkeep remarks wryly upon the entrance of the newcomer, setting down a mug and beginning to labour at another with his piece of cloth.

“Ah, but did you ever doubt my return?” The bard’s wide grin seems to encompass his entire face as strolled leisurely over the threshold. He leans against the bar as if he had been away days, not months. Or years.

“And miss out on the chance of a free meal?” The innkeep’s snorts derisively, but there is no venom in it. Instead, the burly man gestures towards a seat by the cackling fire. The bard’s unofficial spot, reserved just for him.

“And where is your goodwife?” The wandering troubadour offers a thankful nod at the mug of ale pressed into his hands. “I’ve cert missed her skill with the ladle and pot.”


“She’s up yonder.” The innkeep gestures up the stairs as he returns to his station. “Resting with the babe.”

“The babe?!” The bard blinks, for once taken aback. “Well I never. Congratulations, my good man! Boy or girl?”

“We’rnt me that did most o’ the work, but I thank ye all the same.” Even beneath the man’s impressive facial hair, the smile is impossible to conceal. “A Boy, and a big one at that. 10 weeks and growing. Judging from his lungs tho, you’d think him part wyvern or somesuch.”

“Hasn’t scared away all your customers, has he?” The bard smirks, glancing around at the empty tavern.

“Oh no, take more than that to put folk off a warm fire and stiff drink. ’Sides it’s early in the day yet, but I’d not mind a story or two to pass the time meanwhiles.” The innkeep pauses in his wiping, sparing an apologetic look for the newcomer. “Ifn’ ye don’t mind stoopin’ to an audience of one.”

“Oh I reckon I can manage to a fine bit of stooping, my old friend. Hmmm…” The storyteller pats his instrument, mind already stretching to any of the myriad branches of his stories too rarely explored. “In fact, I think I have just the right tale in mind. An opener, if you will…”

I'd say just read the room and try to vote in character. We're a fairly pious and chivalrous knight who cares deeply for his people, hates copper clippers and believes the Almighty speaks to him via an angel. He's done some wild, wild, reckless shit in the name of honour and doing the right thing. Right now we're sailing across the sea into the land of filthy slavers and strange cultures to complete the final step on our pilgrimage and maybe join the Dragon Guard, an elite and well renowned group of mercenary bodyguards for the leader of Cathagi known as the "Dragon" (probably an actual dragon).

Also we've accidentally killed or maimed a number of people in duels, woops. I'll leave the rest for you to read about. You don't have to read the archives but I strongly suggest it, it's a great read. If you want to speed read just search Forgottens name and read the updates, not the discussion (although in between the screaming there is some really good discussion)

No idea sorry anon, I based my version off the original Mapbros stuff and just threw the island in there because he did and I liked it. It'd be up to Forgotten to answer that.

Speaking of, Forgotten are you happy with there Nova Cathagi and the associated river are or would you like them closer to the Cathagi Strait?

So the POV's are interesting seems like things might be kicking off in new places

>Damien
Heading home with our sister roselyn on a boat, seemed like we got the Reginate heat off him in Pascae But not the Kingsmen I realiised on the break

>Robert
Reginate shit is always going to mean big dick shit that should scare us, having used an attainment for the first time in a while on house Hewitt that might be a spark to ignite or at least begin a avalanche.

>Rabe
last we heard he was heading back to Montbrun with his sister and was a little worried about the snakemen who might be acting up, luckily the pass might hold them.

>Sir Marc
our loyal Boy is taking the now houseless lady Hewitt to serve our family I predict Grief and mistakes on the road

>Tracker Jean
last we saw her she was stuck on the other side of the Montbrun passes being hounded by Snakemen though luckily her refugee caravan and our wealth if I recall correctly were saved by the timely intervention of the Godric St. John and the order of the broken blade though the victory cost him and his order dearly

>Sir Glasdale
Our good friend who took up with a peasant girl and is looking after Tam the orphan who we saved on our first adventure, who knows what this POV could lead too...

>>5340615
I do believe the northmost Island is the orginal point from where they originated during the night of the three sister and is the stronghold of whatever horror created them.

The most sterling example of a ''Noble'' house who in truth are little more than copperclippers, we started a Beef with Marco Hewett in Fallavon after an exchange of insults and a duel we won.

Turns out he's house was or at least he was involved in the Cathaggi slave trade selling peasants off to the slavers for coin, we told the Queens herald sir Gilbern and now the house wholesale is delenda est or desitute, the only survivor we know of are on Sir Gilberns word are the children of the house and Lady Maria Hewett who we choose to ask him to spare.

Can some righteous knigga remind me how long our stint as Dragon Guard is going to be and what the payout is?

>>5340819
2 years and what ever we can walk out with

>>5340819
2 years and 6 wealth in the old system reminder 10 wealth was the cap

>>5340832
it's also prestigious in it's self
also keeps us from the prince

>>5340819
So we apparently undergo a trial and get 2+ wealth before joining and then its a two year stint and +4 wealth before any rejiging forgotten might have done to the wealth system.

personally I think we could get more running caravans from Cathaggi to Pascae and then on to either Romanie or Montebrun using a few contacts who would likely be open to the idea.

I would very much like to hear more of our brother, but this could be our last chance for a while to hear of the some of the highest level of intrigue in Canton.
>>5340844
Ive rationalized it by continuing the comparison between Emile and a freight train. We cause mayhem as we pass thru the political scene and leave before people in power and influence know what happened. The best or luckiest of them, such as the Prince, easily outmaneuver our bulk and laugh at us as we plow by them. Now we pass the horizon, out of sight and sound. Canton gets complacent. Oh, all of those rumors about a bear night with connections between the most powerful, who crippled the ducal prince and helped catch a bunch of elite kiddie diddlers are just that rumors. Then two years later we come careening back to the kingdom, ruining years of planning, with only those who have met us frequently having any preparation for us and explanation for others.
Don't view it as us being locked away. Instead view it as Canton growing riper for our interference.

>>5340593

>>5341881
>we also told Sir Gilbern we'd help out over here

We said we'd let him know of any threats to Canton IF we heard of them nothing binding us to joining the Dragonguard, as for the prestiege Its a court a continent removed as well as socially and theologically removed from Cantons politicial sphere but I will have to pay that any detractions or appreciations of the position are a matter of context and speculation at this point.

>>5341940
I appreciate that eagerness for Emilles intrigue disrupting ways but I unfortunatly do see it as a major lockout regardless.

>>5342054
>as for the prestiege Its a court a continent removed as well as socially and theologically removed from Cantons politicial sphere

You're not wrong but evidently it's still looked upon as a highly sought after position it seems

>>3248489
"That said, the Dragon Guard is a position of no small prestige. It’s exactly the sort of adventure that your eyes lit up at when tales of the Errantry of other great knights were told around the hearthfire"

I imagine there would be a few time skips as well. Seems like the kind of job where it's long stretches of boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror. That and politics.

>>5340590
p.s. it doesn't look like you announced the thread on your twitter

>>5342066
Yeah if I'm too speculate cynically I'd say the position is sought after by either political climbers, copperclippers (For TRADE) or the more exotically inclined knights.

>>5342074
Yeah I could definitely see that. Honourable mention to naive knights looking for ADVENTURE! before realising it's just babysitting and dodging poisoned cups for inscrutable reasons.

>Young Lord Damien Andrei, elder brother and heir to House Andrei only just!

Fenegan, 13th Day of Bacrimun, 883 A.C.E, Midday – Offshore of the Romani coast

Young Lord Damien Andrei watched the coastline drift by, close enough to shore to make out the rise and fall of the farmer’s backs as they laboured in rows collecting the harvest. Closer still was the glint of a spear in a watchtower one the shoreline, the impressive sea-washed marble at odds with the more recent wooden ramparts jutting out of it.
But there was no alarm coming, and the guard beneath the speartip slouched rather than stood at attention. The Litany of Solace flew her House Vidra colours proudly here, lest the ship be mistaken for a Cathagi raider. Damien blinked. They were not far from Vidra Isle now, and from there only a short stretch to Castle Andrei. Home.

“Pondering another letter to your sweet mountain lass?” That mocking tone and haughty smirk could belong to his elder sister, Young Lady Roselyn Andrei.

“I think I’ve penned enough during this voyage, and no way to send them. I hardly like the idea of ma belle Brunhilde receiving them all at once.” Damien barked a laugh at the thought, though honestly he doubted Young Lady Brunhilde Rabe would mind receiving a dozen letters at once. “Besides, I thought you liked her?”

“Hmm, yes I do admit I enjoyed the company of the little chatterbox. But, sweet as she is, it’s her father Lord Rabe’s iron markets that really seal the deal. Good steel is always at a premium in this Duchy, especially come winter.” Roselyn’s calculating expression looks Damien up and down, less as one sibling might regard another and more as how horse merchant might look at one of his wares on market day. “And it’s high time that we got you married.”

“Good to know I’ve got you watching out for me and the affairs of my heart, sis.” Damien scoffs, but there’s no venom in it. Truth be told, the heir of House Andrei had long ago made his peace with the fact his family would likely arrange his marriage with an alliance as the foremost consideration, and that love might not be a factor. He had not dared hope for as much. “In truth, I don’t mind. I… I think I would be happy. With her.”

“Good.” Roselyn spares her brother a sidelong glance, her tone softening as a she places a hand on his shoulder. “I’m glad.”

There is a long pause between the two eldest Andrei siblings, both watching the Romani shoreline roll by.

[1/3]

“Now.” Finally, Roselyn breaks the silence. “All we need next is to get your brother locked down with a wife.”

“Oh I don’t know…” The smile on Damien’s face widens. “I think Emile is doing well enough on his own on that front…”

“Damien, you know why. I’m not going to walk you through all the details of Emile’s political career but his debut was crippling the Duke Fallavon’s son and his latest achievement ended in leaving Port Bounty a political charnel house.” Roselyn shakes her head, pitying some Pascae schemer somewhere. “ And now he’s somehow managed to earn the Crown Prince’s ire. And we don’t even know exactly why.”

“He must be involved.” Damien pauses, glancing sideways to make sure they were alone. The House Vidra sailors had given little cause for distrust, but this kind of talk… it was the kind of talk that got people killed. “The Prince. Involved in exactly -what- I don’t know. But it’s the only explanation I can think of for making Emile his enemy.”

“I doubt the Prince thinks of Emile as an enemy. For one thing, our bother is still alive. An annoyance is more likely. Funny that our lack of import serves us well for once, the only saving grace is that our House is so far removed from these events in Fallavon and Pascae. The thought of Emile loose in the Duchess Romaine’s Court…” The very thought causes the eldest Andrei sister to shiver. “Until things calm down… and until Mother calms down… Honestly, him staying abroad might be the best thing for us all right now.”

“You forget yourself, sister.” Damien had been letting Roselyn rattle on for a while, but when he spoke something had changed. A subtle thing, a hardening of the voice and serious look that reminded Roselyn just how much Damien was like Father. “He has served us well, above and beyond the call of duty. House Andrei could not hope for a worthier champion… or a finer son. Odds are I’d be long dead and rotting in the woods if not for him.”

“You can’t seriously be considering taking on a member of the Royal Family if…” Roselyn’s wily smirk slips as she catches her brother’s stubborn expression. “Reginae wept, you are serious.”

“Not in open warfare, obviously-”

“Oh wonderful!” Roselyn exclaims, palm to forehead.

“-I’m just saying that if Em is on the wrong side of… of whoever these Faction people are, we should do what we can to help.” Damien crosses his arms stubbornly, remembering it’s what Father would do whenever he was making a rare decision that Mother didn’t agree with. “We are family. And Right Makes Might.”

“If the Prince is as involved as we suspect then all the Right in the world isn’t going to…” Roselyn takes a deep breath, reminding herself that Mother is always calm even when she’s furious. “Look Damien, I think our family’s best approach is to steer well clear and focus on building up our power base. The surest way to not lose a game you don’t understand is to not play. Still, there’s also merit in being aware of the what game is actually being played, and what the stakes are. Just promise me you’ll talk this over with Mother and Father before doing anything rash.”

Jumping right in seems dumb, but so does ignoring it outright. Damien was too close to pretend nothing is going on the the Prince is no friend. Reach out and make cautious contact with Gilbern. It's the best way forward I reckon

No uncles, but you have several aunts that are married into various lesser Romaine houses. They would likely form part of Mother's network of contacts.

House Vidra is currently the most important ally, being Mother's family. It was mentioned previously, but before the Night of Three Sisters they were actual a vassal of House Andrei. One of your aunts is married to a relative in the other ex-vassal as well, but not directly on the seat of power. With your sister Anastajia marrying into House Norveski they would also be on good terms with you.

Individuals poking and proding around is one thing, but a house effort to do the same will lead to like kind being thrown our way, if not more.
The truth is we are better off keeping our heads down. The better we consolidate an anti faction power stronghold, the better off we are when we start poking around and asking questions. But that said, the fact we don't know what it truly means to be anti faction is a problem in and of itself.
So the only thing to he done is to at least get the basic information, learn about what we're dealing with, and act accordingly from there.

I didn't finish rereading the archives yet, but i definitely recall the Crown Prince being attended by one of the Lost Sons. Did we ever talk to Gilbern about that fact, or about our identity as the mystery knight who fought Anger? Seems like something we should have maybe gotten over with before we headed off Carthage.

Yeah the Price is being guarded by the Sanguine Paladin. Evidence seems to point to him being Avarice but could be Agony as well maybe. We fought Anarchy in the ruins

one thing we should keep in mind is the sons of sin can always be looking for better vessels to inhabit agony/avarice may see us as a better host for his being

which is maybe why he wished us to stay

Could be, may have also seen us as a challenge, something more fun to play with. Either way I look forward to chaining him down

>>5342296
I sincerely soubt that Emile is even remotely inhabitable by now. He has nearly no Thorn aspect, and i'm pretty sure the Sons of Sin look for knights whose hearts are as black as theirs. The Red Paladin might have sensed the touch of his brother upon Emile, or perhaps just noticed the magic on his person.

>>5342302
i mean the that regninate knight did not seem thorny to me

Yeah I think we did or at least our suspicions, I think a more prudent path might be checking out the Aetherium or whatever the libary was called.

we are dealing with the highest ranked figure in cathaggi afterall and we all know how the Banquet ended.

Mate, the knights of the Ordo Reginae are the Queens hands and blades. As Forgotten said in the early threads, the Thorn path is travelled both by the selfish and the ideologue. Gilbern, for instance, is a torturer, murderer and liar at the very least. All for the sake of his beloved Queen of course, but he is happy to sacrifice as many innocents as is needed to bring about the downfall of her enemies.
Every knight in that crypt was among the Queens most trusted warriors. Each one was considered so loyal to her that they could be trusted with the truth about the Sons of Sin. They were ironically among the worst picks for fighting a Son since all of them were probably about 50/50 Cain and Thorn.

More fun paranoia inducing information about the Sanguine Paladin is that he was sighted (by us in the lantern vigil) 800 years ago fighting the Foe and is known as Metaxas Sinclarus, Legatus Cain’s Chosen. Assuming it's the same red armoured knight (which it seems to be).

This is probably the best course of action. We should probably ask Ros to handle correspondence with the Reginate/Gilbern as I don't think Damien wants to involve Mother too deeply in our escapades and isn't in great standing with them. He also seems like a presentable lad and she needs a husband.

I'd like to add in reaching out to the various Houses we've befriended (Norveski, Rabe, not a House but Willem Glasdale, etc.) for aid, not in politics, but in everything other than politics. Similar to the already mentioned Rabe steel trade, any trade agreements, mutual martial aid, or even just information exchanges could help relieve pressure off House Andrei in these now uncertain times.

With Emile on pilgrimage the direct threat to him is minimal and those involved would have no discernible reason to interfere with House Andrei. [Humble]

It would probably be best to get our house's affairs in order, and otherwise ready for things to happen.

Fenegan, 13th Day of Bacrimun, 883 A.C.E, Midday – Offshore of the Langlish coast

Two months. It has been two months to the day since you set sail from Port Bounty to complete the last leg of your pilgrimage. It feels like years…

You snap out of your musings and dodge to the side, avoiding the thrust of Mikail’s dulled blade. You grunt, leaning into the attack with a series of blows. He manages to fend you off, barely. Several sailors at ease on the deck applaud but most go about their own business, these little daily sparring sessions were entertaining at first, but after months at sea these martial displays have lost much of their novelty to the grizzled Langlish crew. Turning your attention back to your squire, you notice that his mop of black hair has come free of the his flattop helm. The sweat causes it to remain plastered across the left side of his face but, to the lad’s credit, he doesn’t let that distract him.

You’ve long stopped viewing the lowborn peasant boy from Andryski as unwanted baggage, instead settling more comfortably into your roles as master and apprentice. While you had long considered the boy to be a hard worker, if a little dull, now you can honestly say you see the young lad’s potential. He’s no Roiguard material, not by any stretch, but at some point in his training that lofty station has become less a wishful pipedream and more a goal to work towards.

Father Towbray has been helping the boy with his letters, but progress has been slow and there’s not a lot of new reading material to be had on a ship at sea. Even less opportunity to practice his courtly manners, although to be fair his hiccups at previous societal events fell short of being described as outright social disasters.

All that leaves is cleaning armour and sparring, and you have made it your personal mission to ensure that he’s been doing a lot of both every day.

You follow through as Mikail ducks under your swing and turn to finish him off. Suddenly you halt, pausing in the middle of your backstroke. You blink at the minor sting of pain in your left leg. You fell for a feint, and a poorly disguised one at that, but in your distracted state you missed the tell-tale signs and instead committed to your lunge and gave him his opening.

It’s the first clean hit your squire has done on purpose with the two of you sparring in earnest and the boy looks like he’s just about ready to explode with pride. But it pleases you to see that he’s disciplined enough not to loosen his stance in the elation of the unexpected score. Mikail is still far from the skill required of an anointed knight, but he's coming along and you’d reckon he’d give some of Father’s greener men-at-arms a run for their wages.

“Hmm, I actually felt that.” Your hand brushes the back of your knee, where even the master-work plate must make allowances in protection for freedom of movement. “Well struck, squire. Let’s finish up for today on that note.”

“Tired already, milord?” Mikail pants, but his grin falters and cheeks go even redder as you glance back of your shoulder.

I was going to suggest we give him our old breastplate and we can pass the chain mail on to someone maybe Orin? anyway he should learn as a knight that he'll be fighting in heavy armour in a fight and he'll need to be trained for that.

As for the Idealist choice respect is due to us mentoring him.

This was discussed in previous threads, while he doesn't have the build for the breastplate, helm and greaves fitted to your size to be much more than a hinderance right now he will eventually grow into it.

>>5343433
Right guess we'll have to get him his own Breastplate or harness at some point then.

He should be proud of scoring a hit,distracted or no, but the outburst at the end demands his exuberance be cooled. You must be in control of yourself, not just when fighting, but also afterwords. If he does the same while fighting someone else, they may be offended enough to seek retribution.

STALWART trait tested

Mikail of Andryski has followed you without hesitation from the depths of monster’s lairs in Grenmire to the untamed reaches of the Fallavon forests. He has showed courage, if not particular talent, in each battle by your side. You have tested his mettle and not found him wanting. But overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer. You will not have your squire’s death on your hands as Sir Marcel Rousseau believes to have his nephews on his.

“All fire and vinegar, I see.” You remark dryly, keeping the humour out of your voice. Clicking a finger to your manservant Orin, you bid him to attend you. “Bring out my old breastplate. We will see how energetic my squire is after fighting in that.”

Mikail of Andryski paints a comical figure once he adorns the breastplate and accoutrements. They were designed with you, a full-grown man and a tall one at that, rather than a pubescent boy in mind. The armour hangs off him like an ill-fitting scarecrow and he moves uncomfortably under the weight. By comparison, you move like lightning.

“A touch to me, I should think.” Mikail blinks at your voice, not quite sure how your dulled blade ended up under his armpit so quickly.

“Er… right you are, milor-“

“Again!” You leave determined to get a decent workout and demonstrate to your squire how far he has to go yet.

*CLATTER*

“My touch.” You speak over the rattle of your squire picking himself up from the deck. “Again.”

Again and again the sparring, if it can be called that, continues. Always with the same result. Spectating sailors make the occasional noise in sympathy to the embattled squire, cementing yourself in some of their eyes as a pitiless teacher if there ever was one.

*TING*

“My touch.” Even a bystanding pilgrim, well used to your punishing martial exchanges, winces at the ringing sound of one of your blows to the helm that sends your young squire reeling. “Again."

*CLANG*

“My touch…” On and on it goes, until finally you take pity on your charge and offer him a way out. Surely the boy has learnt his lesson. “Alright. Had enough for today, squire?”

Mikail of Andryski pants heavily in response. His shoulders are sagged, his shield-arm hangs loosely by his side and his blade is barely hanging centimetres off the ground. His stance is utter dogshit, as your old Master-at-Arms would say. But you can’t read the expression on his face behind that old helm of yours.

“If… if it please… milord…” The boy gulps for air in between each handful of words. “We… could call it…. a draw.”

>Your squire gains the RESILIENT trait.
> Able to withstand a surprising level of physical punishment, your squire will not easily be put down and, if put down, will not easily stay down for long.

>Your squire gains the HAUGHTY conversation trait.
>Like teacher like pupil. His deep, stubborn pride in his position as squire to the greatest knight in the world is reflected in both his service to you and his interaction with others.

The kid has heart, I’ll grant him that. You think to yourself as you signal for the next round to begin. Almighty willing… we will make a knight of you yet, boy.

You close the distance mercilessly, sweat dripping down your back. At the last gasp, all that your squire can offer is an exhausted swing, so slow that you can quite literally walk under it and gently shove your opponent with your shield. Barely a shove, a nudge really, and your squire teeters backwards on exhausted legs and lands flat on his back.

“Orin, help him up and get him out of armour. Water first, then see Sister Ignatius about some salves for the bruises.” You can hazard a guess that there will be a fair few. “…I’ll give you tomorrow and Sandag to recover. We resume on Monegan.”

You look up at the afternoon sun, not a little bit short of breath yourself, and find your stomach growling. The extended sparring lesson has ploughed straight through lunch, though thankfully Orin has set aside a serving for you and Mikail on the deck. It’s cold now, but you’re hungry enough for that not to discourage you and look around ship for your usual mealtime companion.
