Speaking of Morr Grimm, I'm interested in meeting him somehow. I've got idea's in my head about trying to get into the ancient Vampire library, so see what ancient magics and history can be learned there. Plus, if Siona learns from it, she could use the information to help rebels against the Empire, though that's just her own thoughts, no one else really needs to know about that.

Go ahead, either meet him as Stonehallow or at Gallowkeep or go to Montesquieu directly.

You want to rebel against the Empire, eh? Well then, you've been overheard by the right man...

Also, you arrived pretty darn fast to the party. You're going to be the talk of the town with that new army.

I don't care who the hell you are, only about what you can do. I am the Emperor of a dead Empire, the King of a dead Kingdom, the Duke of a Failing State and the Slave of my ancestors. Do I look like I'm one to judge about identity? I will become like my great grandfather - Immortal, powerful, indomitable. My father and my grandfather were both weak and crippled. They sat around the palace all day, more lazy than even Erbatz II, who I may remind you, died of a bloated stomach and a failed surgery. I am here to bring back the Empire, and I will do it until I die. There is no greater failure of a man than a failure to fight for his freedom; for his power. I have an army, and I was a general. What makes you think I couldn't be an Emperor?

Well, bringing a literal army outside of the city gates doesn't exactly help your cause. Kinda gives the impression you're using them to threaten the other nobles into submission.

Alright, Ill get another post up. Some of it will have to do with the ceremony, since Siona is currently there waiting with the peasants in the square to hear who is chosen as next emperor, but Ill write a second part as a flashback for what she was doing earlier that week.

(I.E., meeting with Morr Grimm about Montesquieu.)

Well, only if Jonathan is elected. If not, then Siona will just continue her life as a wandering mage. But right now, if anyone was to approach her about assisting in a revolt, she would probably take them up on their offer. Especially if they agree to protect the Rosha, who are fairly isolated due to their lifestyle.

Not necessarily, I just figured it would make sense for her to have met Morr Grimm earlier since she's at the coronation right now.

I could just set it a little after the coronation, since it really isnt important to her arc, just a framing device.

What do you think?

It really depends on the Jonathan guy's plans for Aurinia, but you might want to seek me for support.

I think it's best if all you guys meet Grimm after the coronation. That way you can tell him the good news of the new Emperor

Actually, in the post Im writing Siona has just ended up in a bar fight, so Im thinking it might work out that she gets run out of town before she even has a chance to see the coronation. So, I could have her arrive after running form the capitol, which would make an excuse as to how she wouldn't now who became the new emperor, and give me a chance to explain how Rithi ends up travelling with her even though Siona only agreed to take her to the coronation.

So, I can get my post up tonight if you think that works, or I can wait a little and have Siona arrive with the rest.

Well, my Grand Prince is less likely to go all the way to meet you. That would be unrealistic. Let's say Jonathan is elected and he wants to, I dont know, increase the yearly tribute we pay. You'll hear of this and Go "Hey, the aurinians might help us" and Go meet us. The trip will surely be nice
