The Long Journey - Part III
Foundations


I'm the High King Snake
And I rule my den


Grandmaster, Ordermarshal and Coffermaster of Morek Colony


The Lady of Morek left the colony and back to home, besides the river and of the mountains. The soldiers observed the cortège disappear along the bridge and there was a small victory commemoration. Now they could continue the work. After few days the bureaucrats and the few votes gave the power and the control of the colony to Yeux. The government positions. Titles. Responsibilities.


Scribe: "M'Lord, you received some letters of Everguard and of the King of Thulsoma..."


Yeux Serpentis: "Thulsoma?"


Scribe: "A small kingdom in the northeast coast."


Yeux Serpentis: "Read the letters..."


Yeux had estates in Valkyrja. He gathered the employees in an old house under the Duke's permission and the soldiers were in search of all the information about the old Lord and the history of the region. The scribe read the letters aloud and Yeux passed the days answering letters, providing the conquest of Yggdramir and the unification with Everguard under the same flag. He regularized the taxes, same without gold to collect. At night he studied a little what he found of the Eveguard history in Valkyrja and in morning walks he talked with the people about the Torenism. Yeux had many titles, but that didn't make him richer or arrogant. Yeux Serpentis was working for the ideal of Averoth as he defended Falasan. And the man that always worked just with the sword learned quickly to work with the leadership. Unhappily some people didn't dream the same dream of Yeux. The small group that left Morek for the colonization began to disappear. Just Duke Theodred and Yeux demonstrated determination to continue with the plans. Some members of Everguard began to arrive and they established new estates. The immigrations began to grow. People arrived of the wild areas looking for the shelter of swords and shields.


Yeux looked to the east and he wanted to colonize those wild regions. Happily the King of Thulsoma belonged to a family that knew the Serpentis name. Yeux discovered that the King had relatives in Far East and that knew Gregor Eyolf Serpentis. He offered peace and sent ambassadors to Summerdale. The Queen accepted the peace, same initially refusing daring plans for the future she didn't demonstrate interest in conflicts or limit the growth of the colony. When Yeux looked to the west he saw the war with Astrum, but he discovered that Everguard had connections with his family. Yeux knew that Gregor Eyolf struggled for Ikalak and was victorious. He marched in the island and went up Toren Stronghold mountains. Everybody in the family knew Gregor Eyolf's legends when he was young and struggled with another name: Vinatyfir Serpentis. Gregor was always honored with the enemies and he probably heard the plans of they found a realm in Dwilight... but the winds took him to Far East. Now Yeux was in Valkyrja. He would march to Yggdramir. He would be victorious.
