Lords and ladies, as you may be aware, the scouting expedition I recently sent out to hunt for the remnants of our… wolfish… adversaries has not returned. I received a letter not but a few hours ago from one of my scouts that he and his entire party had been wiped out by a band of so-called “Warboys”.
Good citizens, like you, I desire nothing more than rest after our latest escapades. I am tired from my quests, from battle, and from dealing with the threats of Rome. I looked forward to a peaceful summer with all of you, my friends.. nay, my family. However, these Warboys have shattered those dreams.
We have been through so much together. I was but a newcomer to your town a year ago, and I was welcomed warmly into the of this town nonetheless. Now, even though I have found myself in power, I do not consider myself your king but your fellow. I shall lead by walking beside you, as I always have. And I say we shall not stand for this brutal, cold-blooded killing of our countrymen! If you will stand with me, we will once again take up arms in defense of our town. In our history, we have defeated every threat that came – the Empire of Gilder, the Bandit incursion, and even a pack of werewolves.
We shall not let this injustice stand! We are stronger than this band of Warboys, and we shall let them know this. They will regret this act of war, and I swear to you all on the graves of my parents that they shall rue having killed our comrades in the Northern Wastes. They threaten come to us now?
I say let them come! Fallton shall stand as it always has, and neither its fortifications nor its warriors shall fall. Fallton shall survive! If these heathens wish to see Valhalla, then we shall certainly ensure they reach its halls.
Huzzah, and may I see you all on the battlefield. To glory and honor!

Dear Cole Van Helsing — King of Falton,
It is I your friend, Empress Caine. I hail from the City State of Sparta. My home has been harassed by these same war boys that come to you know. I am here to help your people to not meet the fate my people have. I owe it to those of my people who were murdered out of cold blood. Please let me avenge my people.
Yours truly,
Empress Caine
Can’t wait to hear all about it, and read everyone’s stories!
Speaking of which, when can I expect to see Alvina’s March 19th story posted?
Your story is at Tavern Tales and Stories — Demise of the werewolves.
I have a question. I am currently the only title holder in my faction and I will not be there tomorrow. Can my faction still use the base we registered last Larp?
This is getting exciting!
