A Kings story, The battle of Domus
META: this happend before, during and after the last battle of domus (The Third one), this more then a week ago.
The sound of Iron against stone echoed threw the Palace halls. Vlad was just back from a Emergency Council meeting and he was now heading to his room. Vlad always were his complete harness and Royal insignia before and after the battle, it was some kind of Physiological preparation for him.
"M'lord!" Sir Fredrich di Ivanov ran upon Vlad.
"There's a message for you Sire" He offered his King the message, looked him one more time in the eye, almost worried, and left after Vlads Gesture to assemble his unit.
The messages contained Scout reports of what seemed to be movement Towards Domus.
"This is it... Its me or them... Victory or Defeat... Life... Or Death..." And So the King closed his helmet and Covered his Grim, restless face from reality once again, and sets off to assemble his army, for the greatest battle of the Kingdom of Caligus EVER...
A few hours later:
The entire City of Domus seemed like a big hornets nest.
Everyone was running around, preparing for the big Assault.
Fredrich Di Ivanov, Caligus Royal Scribe, personal Scribe of King Vlad, was standing standing just north of the Palace, overlooking the walls around Domus.
In the distance he could see many noblemen assembling there units, and looking into the distance like there trying to spot a fly, buzzing around 2 miles away. When suddenly, he saw SoP sounding his horn waving to a defence turret 250 feet further down the wall.
It was where Vlad and Zelos where assembled. The defence turret was perfect to overlook the battlefield and safe enough to raise flags that symbolize the formations used.
When Zelos Sounded his horn, the Army started to get into there positions, and only minutes later they hear the horns and voices of the Federation army.
The battle has begun...
6 hours later:
"Bring me my Scout reports! i need a total coverage of our current situation"
The battle of Domus was just over and Fredrich walked into Vlad as he was picking up some new shields for his men.
Vlad's Scribe didnt say anything, in-fact he was just staring at him, like he wasn't there.
After a few Seconds Vlad got irritated. "What...! Is Wrong with you?!" "Si..Si.. Sire..."
"Come on, I don't have the time of the world! this is important OK?"
Fredrich, totally stunned, tried to find the words he needed. "Sir, There seems to be an Arrow Stuck in your right leg Sire... I would advise to let your healer take a look at it Sir."
"Arrow? ah please cut the nonsense Di Ivanov... We all know you..." Vlad quickly looked to his right leg, and indeed a Yssrian arrow was stuck in the flesh of the warrior King.
Stunned and Amazed, Vlad stumbled to the nearest Rock and started to pull at the arrow, just when Arch Priest Cartor passed by, looking strangely at his King struggling with this arrow.
"Whats Wrong?"
"I don't know Sir, But he is acting really strange lately. He wanted me to get his messages and all, while he was standing on his legs, Oblivious of his serious Wounds..."
Cartors face made a questionable impression. "He..? He didn't FEEL That?"
"No Sir..."
"HEY! you two, Stop chatting around, and help me will ya! I need those Scout reports in TEN MINUTES. If you are not back in 10 minutes, I will put you both on the front line of the next battle to Come! Now Move!!"
Amazed, and to stunned to say anything, they both walked off in search of the recent Scout reports, leaving a struggling King alone...
A Love Story, Veni and Vlad
META: This happend only a few days ago, the day before yssria attacked in Supra, stoping the TO there. This RP is Writen by the player of Veni and myself.
Veni makes her way across the grassy plains towards Vlad's tent for their appointment. They had not been able to talk properly ever since the rebellion and wonders if he has changed since taking the ruler ship. More so she wonders if things between them will have changed. The sun sinks lower and twilight settles over Supra. Gently stroking the tall grass as she passes she notices there is still some dirt under her nails from helping her men dig in, she hopes Vlad does not notice.
When she passes the first tents, she opens Vlads letter again.
Letter from Vlad Message sent to: Veni
Dear Lady Veni,
For some time now, I wanted to have a evening diner with you. There Is much I need to tell you, Please meet me tonight at my tent in the fields of Supra. I've brought lots of Fine Scian wine with me, and the cooks are preparing a nice lambs steak.
Tell me if your available.
Yours Truly,
Vlad King of Caligus
A small smile appeared on her face, his writing style sure seemed the same. But every-time she saw him, she got a strange feeling of insecurity. He was always a hard worker, but now he seems only to be 'The King', Instead of just 'Vlad'... Even for a Women like Veni, it was hard to deal with men like these, allthough, she never let anyone notice.
Sunken away in her thoughts about Vlad, she almost bumped into his very own Scribe.
Fredrich bowed. "M'lady Veni, your host is ready to receive you, his tent is located on the far east of the encampment"
"ow, uuh, Thank You Sir" And Fredrich was gone before Veni could even recognize him.
"Mhh, must be a busy man..." She mumbled.
Some minutes later she arrives at the Royal tents. The two guards waiting outside of the tent stepped aside and Saluted her. Veni nods back as she enters the room. There she saw Vlad behind a desk on the upper left side of the room, with Duke Kamekaze peeking over his shoulder pointing out some ideas about the the coming battle. The two men didn't notice her entering the room so she takes her time to investigate it. She was surprised to see the lack of wealth and Status in this room, it looked almost similar to hers, it was only bigger and contained little more staff in it. In the middle was a big table, served with lots of fruit and lots and lots of wine...
After a few minutes looking around, she gets enough of it, its almost a crime for not noticing a Lady like Her!
"Excuse me?" The soft sweat Voice with the typical angry and dark undertone characterized Veni her self. The men fell for it, and obeyed it like a puppy obeys his master. And again this time, her voice cut right threw the room, making the King almost fall of his chair and his Duke grab for his dagger.
"Veni!" Kamekaze shouts.
Vlad needed to take a few seconds to collect his air.
"I am Very Very sorry M'dear, this work..." He Takes a deep breath.
"I am almost fully suck into it. these days I am less alert when I am sitting at my desk then when I am sleeping in my bed... Please sit down, The lamb should be ready any minute"
Lady Veni Bows courtly to her King which after she sits down at the right end of the table. She can hear the Duke complaining about Vlads guards.
"You could at least tell your guards to say something when there's someone coming down your tent, who knows who this could be!"
"Tell them what ever you like, as long as they're not following me every where I go I am fine, now leave this Tent, I have almost forgotten my appointment with Veni."
Duke Kamekaze bows as he went off, giving a wink to the lady just before he leaves the room.
Veni shivers in disgust.
"Pff... Womanizer... Your Duke has allot to learn Sire."
Vlads walks to the long end of the table and sits down next to Veni. "Ah Don't tell me about it, hes always wasting his time in the bars looking for 'chicks', i still don't get this ugly metaphor, but it could be me..."
Veni Smiled.
Vlad took the first bottle of wine, closest to his grasp.
"Wine?"
"Of Course My King, it would be an insult to the hard workers of Scio if I didn't"
Vlad laughed softly as he filled her Glass. As soon as he started at his own Glass, he started to look serious again.
"Veni, I've thought a while about this, but let's just be honest to each other..."
Veni's expression was more confused then exited. "What do you mean?"
Vlad waves angerly at his cook who was peeking around the corner, interested in what buisness this beautiful lady had with a Hard working men like The King.
"Look, there is something i need to talk to you about... Its Personal..."
Vlad looked a bit difficult, he took a breath and continued.
"You know we had some flirts now and than, and you know i am a bit shy sometimes but..."
Veni smiled gently, her cheeks coloured red while she was looking into the brown/green eyes of her Ruler.
Vlad looked up to Veni again.
"I adore you, Lady Veni, Your the first women to steal my heart, ever since i saw you..."
Vlad carefully took her hands and held them in his.
"It hurts so much to think of you every minute in my life. There is no way i can rule this country without the most valuable organ in a Kings body, his heart."
Vlad looked down at the table again, to the lonely grape, that was lying all alone on his plate.
He Chuckled took a deep breath and continued while Veni sat stunned in her chair, lost in the eyes of this man.
"Veni, please, can I have it back?
Veni was amazed by Vlads lovely words, she felt being carried away by these eyes, like drifting away into a never ending ocean.
A cold flame, deep inside of there hearts lite, and totally carried away by her feelings, She kissed him, and he kissed her, under the gloaming light of the dinner candles...
Some days passed by, and even after the defeat in Supra, They couldn't resit to look down and blush when they saw each other.
Vlad never worried a second, he was sure it would be noticed, but his mind was fully under control by his love for this lady. He didn't answer a question nor looked at you whilst speaking, his mind and heart where still in that tent on that very night, with Veni...
Grego's medical journal, written by Vlad
META: Old Roleplay, written when he found Grego at the gates of Domus after a year beeing lost.
Gregos medical log book.
I decided to take track of Gregos condition from the day i found him, just out side the walls of Domus.
Hopefully we will se some progress...
Day 1
Grego is still in schock, his body is counter reacting against the fever. His bed is coverd with sweat, The healers are worried. I am even more worried, will my little brother survive?
Day 2
Still no changes, The healers fear the worst.
Day 5
Grego is doing better, he is finaly sleeping. The past 3 days where very hard, its a miracle that he is still alive. He lost alot of liquid, I never saw a noble so skiny as Grego is now. The healers told me that i need to keep his lips moistured, to prevent dehydration.
Day 6
Grego is mumbling in his sleep. He is sleeping but not resting, i cannot understand what he is saying, it sounds like jiberish.
Day 7
Things are going better, Grego is becoming concious and he can finaly drink his own water.
Day 9
Gregos sleep is becoming more and more restless, he sleeps the entire day, at night, I heard him scream, I ranned to his room, finding him strugling with his cheets. He screamed for a name, Naira, I am trying to find out who she is.
Day 16
Grego is becoming fully concious but lost his identity... I cannot find any Grego left in this body... He doesnt remember me, nor his family. A few days ago he panicked, and ran out of his room into the palace halls. He screamed for help, he tought he was still captured in Ibladesh. I am trying to take good care of him, he needs alot of atention, i dont want to tie him on his bed...
Day 21
I havent come to the Councill meetings for a long time now... I didnt left Gregos room, he is adepting to the enviorment, god I am so tired...
Day 23
I slept for 2 days.... I feel like this is draining all of my energy, I havnt spoke with my friends for weeks. They probly dont know where I am, this section of the palace is never visited by the Queen nor the Duke. I want to hide, I am ashamed of myself...
Day 38
I dont know Why I am still keeping track of this journal, there is nothing to write, Just emptyness. Grego is mentaly a wreck, and it doesnt seem to change. I didnt want any healers around anymore, he is perfectly healthy, but still not able to rest...
Day 40
I found out who Naira is, I am going to send her a letter in teh morning, hopefully she will be able to help me further with this...
Day 49
I got atacked by an Assasin a week ago, Strangly, i enjoyed it... Before i spoted her i smelled this beutyfull odoir, it smelled like spring, it gave me a warm happy feeling, even when she pierced the dagger into my chest... I woke up in my room 4 days after the atack, with healers around me, they where woried, almost afraid of me behaviour. I stood up, walked to Gregos room and reacted like nothing happend.
Day 56
I am starting to feel guilty for my abcense in the councill, i wrote them a letter this morning. I will do my best to carry on my duty from now, maybe it will keep me away from these thoughts... I still smell the parfum of Katia... It felt like a relieve, the dagger felt warm, not cold, as it used to feel before. Is this the feeling that drives people in life? Is this what Cartor was talking about? Love?
Day 57
I read my journal again... Taking care of Grego drives me insane... I cannot take it anymore, Naira, please, anwser my letter, I need your help!
Day 59
I have decided to visit my friends in the Council, I allready got a warm welcome, especialy from Cartor. Maybe Gwynyth has some good advise for me.
