MIRROR - The Vampires of Ansien, Elinie

[X-Elinie/RiD (Niels)]

As you stand there, marveling at life, you see a shadowy figure watching you from the manor's roof. He gives a brief wave with his hand, like an old friend would, and then disappears out of view.

I think I just realized who this shadowy person was -- Vimoerean Vanadere...

I am slow.

Well then I am slower... The name rings a bell, but who is that?

[X-Medoere & RCS/KE (Thorsten)]

The Iron Rider (recently deceased in Ilien) , no?

*click*

Oh no.

Do you know what that "click" sound was?

Sometimes, when presented with enough information, my brain leaps across the known data and then extrapolates what the worst possible outcome could be, if these datasets correlate.

I just had a "click".

The Iron King, undead, traditional, wants to rule Anuire, somewhere to the north. The holder of the Book of Law can decide much, alone on the claim that "it is written".

Thus he would want the Book.

Manethander, the last of the Elin line, undead, traditional, wants nothing more than a stable eternal Elinie to rule over.

I see many reasons the two could decide to work together, and very few why not. And this is bad. Very bad.

I did that earlier this afternoon looking at the Turn 61 SR.  Specifically, at the Aduria entry, indicating that a civil war began two years ago but has been kept largely quiet and unnoticed by anyone in our end of the world until recently. 

Now, who do we know down in Aduria whose plans changed radically two years ago and who would now have a strong interest in taking control of a large landed domain and army?  And would have the capacity to foment a civil war, confident that he could win it?

Just so everyone knows, in a couple years or so, we're SCREWED.

On the bright side for you - if you are right you at least get to watch me go down in flames first.

Actually you all have nothing to worry about - nobody beats the Governor

nobody beats the Governor 

Except Jack Sparrow!

I've received IC warnings about the threat from the south and that is a major part of my reason to go poking at the Obelisk (which might or might not be a meaningfull response to said warning)

Whatever the result, it is fun to read! I'm glad that such adventures finds their way to the boards. 

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

Thorsten you are welcome

OOC: Everyone is waiting for me to respond, and I have been busy the last few days.

"Your Highness, if you would allow it and so desire, I can remain for a few weeks and we can discuss how our realms, one in the Daylight and yours, in the Twilight, can be of aid to one another both now, and in the future.  Of these others, I would like to see them returned to the world of Daylight if you are so inclined."

OOC: I am attempting to engage him in Diplomacy, I suppose.

Nice move - I hope you succeed
