says the StewardThis feast is modest no doubt, nothing like they may expect in their homelands.
Talks of constructing the Twin Cathedrals of Saint Paul and Saint Constantine as a symbol of unity and friendship will be underway, it is hoped that Timothy and his future queen may be wed in them, but it is unlikely.But we are a humble nation. After all, the great Augustus Caesar dined on sardines! They'll be used to eating the same food as their soldiers by now.

Gustav has seen many wars. He' had to go through a lot of bloodshed to see his people united. But the compassion he showed me by offering his niece's hand...his jovial nature at the feast...these are the marks of a great man. Perhaps I was hasty in my judgement of the Catholic Kings, being corrupt imbibers. There is at least one Catholic King I support, and that is Gustav. However, my council has told me, and I agree, that I have been running from my problems. So I humbly inquire to the great King if there's a way for me to court your daughter directly...

Very well, the Princess Erika I, niece of myself, King Gustav, shall come to meet with you, and stay in your company for a week, so that you may know her and court her, so as to help us come to a settlement on the situation far more quickly, I will of course, pay a degree of the wedding price, as is necessary, and it shall, due to the nature of such a marriage, be a grand one indeed.

. Timothy, in contrast to his usual behaviors, continues to tour his kingdom incognito, securing his reign amidst his Catholic and Orthodox subjects. He has delayed his conquest of Macedonia because he was trying to become secure upon his throne. It is uncertain as whether or not Timothy will fulfill his conquest of Macedonia, but his last known location was towards a band of Prussian Friars. It is said he wished to learn a few Prussian phrases, the Catholic views of courtship and married life, and maybe even borrow a copy of the Vulgate (Catholic Bible) to learn the Hymns. This is to further prepare himself for his bride-to-be's arrival.Catholic dynasty ruling Illryia and potentially Macedonia

Following rumours that a power clash is occurring in the region of the Balkans, under the Kingdom of Terran Equestria, King Gustav I has called for a Crusade against the Pagan elements in the power clash, he calls upon his Catholic Pact allies for aid, and sends a glorious 36,000 man army to fight in the region. An upsurge of violence against Jews has also erupted in Prussia and nearby regions.
The Prussian Crusaders consist of:
10,000 Landsknecht
10,000 Peasant Levy Spearmen
5,000 Peasant Levy Archers
5,000 Crossbowmen
1,000 Knights (Dis-mounted)
1,000 Knights (Mounted)
1,000 Proto Hussars

This war shan't be too complicated an affair. The local French tribes are not too worthy as enemies, and we shall win with ease.
Esteemed King Gustav, my dear son Paul De Rouge is looking for a bride. My wish is for him to take your daughter's hand, and to create an eternal bond between our Houses.

Terra Equestor wrote:With the aid of Tyr-Basiliscus, King Timothy will fulfill his promise to annex the region of Macedonia. King Jason, the foster parent of Timothy will provide his aid, and gladly accepts the coming of Christianity to his homeland. Timothy requests the aid of both Basiliscus and Prussia to train their troops in order to create a swift and decisive fighting force. Basiliscus will receive the beauteous but headstrong Princess Andromeda of Macedonia, while King Gustav's son has the offer to marry Timothy's sister: The pious Callidora. The invasion date is uncertain, for Timothy wants Terra Equestor to find it's place among the great nations as the warriors of antiquity. Minus the nudity, heathenism, and sodomy of course.
We are greatly happy of this new friendship with Terra Equestor. An alliance, and a great one, has been formed, and now we are much more fearful than before!
When the news of my future marriage with Princess Andromeda reached me, I was overcome with bliss and happiness. To show my value in combat, and to reach her as soon as possible, I personally will reach Greece and join the fighting.

Timothy's foster father, King Jason of the Dorians will arrive also to the conference.He reminds me a lot of myself. Only more reckless and lovestruck. I don't think he'll find Andromeda quite what he anticipates. The world is wild outside of Christendom, and the same can be said of Andromeda.
said the jovial Dorian KingI'm glad my boy at long last gave Leo the what-for
Jason is also planning on bringing a "surprise" to celebrate the first alliances between Timothy's fiancee, Princess Erika of Prussia, and what is going to be called "the Pact of Riders" (the alliance between Basiliscus and Terra Equestor)He's already acting very much like a King. Not sure how he'll act as a warrior, but the lad's smart as paint

I truly cannot wait to meet Timothy and King Jason.
I can feel that the bond between these two Houses is growing ever stronger, I'm curious to see what King Jason has for my nephew...

The "challenge" Timothy informed, is an Equestor custom that the man must challenge the father of his bride in order to win her hand. (The reason why Timothy was away with the friars in order to prove to Gustav that he would be a good husband). Andromeda, issued a challengeSay "'ello" to your future missus. If you win the challenge...
To ease the blow of this startling ultimatum, Timothy whispers aside to PaulThe world is wild outside of your comfy castle. The same can be said of m'self! Now I challenge yourself to prove yourself an honorable man! If ye fail, you cannot marry me!
Andromeda sat through the rest of the feast by her father's side, listening and talking largely with the general, all the while giving the Prince a stern look. Paul has a week to decide a challenge, and prepare to win it.As the challenged, you have the choice of weapon or competition, so you have the advantage. The actual challenge itself can only occur a week from now at latest. If you fail, you can challenge as much as you like. Provided Andromeda says yes.

I have decided. The thing I most want is Andromeda's hand, and I am confident I can have it. For this great duel against King Jason, Paul has decided the weapon. It shall be the Flamberge, a typical two-handed Basiliscusian sword.

Prince Paul de Rouge remained highly surprised after what he found out at the feast. To get the hand of his beloved Andromeda, he will have to undertake a great task, and fight a very worthy opponent...
Still, after hours total King with General Alfred and his most loyal High Guards, Prince Paul has decided. These are his words:I have decided. The thing I most want is Andromeda's hand, and I am confident I can have it. For this great duel against King Jason, Paul has decided the weapon. It shall be the Flamberge, a typical two-handed Basiliscusian sword.
Now, everybody is waiting for the actual duel to take place...
The Flamberge, a two-handed sword used by the Tyr-Basiliscusian High Guard:
Well, the bugger apparently has some balls at least. Let's see if he has skill. That over sized fire poker will be no match to Harbnger! He'll fight me, but that doesn't mean I'll play by his rules. He uses swords he's familiar with, so will I!

Tyr-Basiliscus wrote:The duel has started!
Prince Paul, with his weapon, and Princess Andromeda with hers have started the fight. Paul p, due to his greater strength, seems to have a slight advantage but Andromeda manages to move with greater speed.
There is, though, a cut on Andromeda's shoulder, which is slowing here down. But even Paul seems wounded, as he is slightly limping.
For now the fight seems going in a balanced way, but anything can happen!
We will keep you informed.
Andromeda explains to the dazed Prince.You're welcome to talk to me whenever you like, wherever you like
With that she leaves the ring. A few moments of silence later and the Equestor noblemen cheer loudly and heartily congratulate the young Prince, who still has no idea what just happened. The invasion will be underway in a matter of days. All that remains is the Barbarians to be eliminated and converted.Except for the bedchamber, you need to work on your stamina a lot before you can hope to get near there.
