Amand Reverdin

Controlling the Board

Sigismund would make his move to gather the money needed to gain his influence with Erlend and his move would be to infiltrate the Vault of Hachiville which was an underground system just outside the village guarded by Fromund, and with a young man named Digfried living within the cave. Fromund was someone that Sigismund would need in order to access the vault and was important for this but surprisingly it was Digfried who would be especially important for Sigismund as he was said to be very intelligent but was hidden away for his desire to draw more then farm, and Sigismund saw him as the engineer he would need to help build himself a kingdom.

Murder of Polik Vesteinsson

With the establishment of Digfried as a member of there growing influence it was Sigismund that would return to the town hall and meeting with Thorve alongside Asleif she would give him her list of those who needed to be dealt with and who could survive among House Vesteinsson. The list would basically only indicate that several of the younger girls and babies were without sin and with this in mind Sigismund asked her who specifically needed to be dealt with right away and she would without hesitation bring up Polik Vestiensson her uncle a man that she would describe as a warrior without a match in the area. Alongside Asleif it was Sigismund that traveled into the House Vesteinsson estate where the two would wait in the forest by the river where Polik and his wife Erika walked along every day he was in the estate and while there the two slept together once again, and both said they loved each other with there declarations only interrupted by the arrival of Polik and Erika.

The Search for a Killer

The discovery of the mutilated bodies of Polik and Erika would begin a new period in the district as an enraged Erlend would summon the entire Vesteinsson family as well as everyone of any importance in the district to the Vesteinsson estate. At the meeting known as the Vesteinsson Estate Meeting an irate Erlend would implode after it became clear that no one had any information on who had killed Polik and without information he begin accusing those at the meeting eventually leading to Polik's son and daughter (who at that moment stood as the heir to House Vestiensson) to become banished from the district after Athelheah Vestiensson came to the defense of his sister Ceolfrith Vesteinsson and despite attempts to make Erlend understand what their banishment would mean he refused to see reason and allowed them to leave.

Meeting a Slave Master

Following the death of Polik it was Erlend who begin to isolate himself in his estate and in this isolation he came to rely on Sigismund sending him on errands and believing in his heart that someone in his command had killed his brother he begin to keep secrets from nearly everyone outside of Sigismund. As time was moving forward it was Sigismund that was now amassing a powerful force loyal to him above Erlend and with this his next goal was to enter a position where the death of Erlend would lead to him becoming the Alderman of Hachiville, and he would gain his chance when he was sent to the estate of the Hachiville Guildmaster Amand Reverdin. Amand Reverdin had been named the Guildmaster of Hachiville at the request of his father of whom was the Viscount of the town of Maltsavy and thus the liege lord of Aldermen Erlend, and the position of Guildmaster was seen by Amand as a stepping stone to gain relationships but for Sigismund he saw the title as a path to Alderman as Guildmaster was one of three titles in the district, and thus Sigismund travelled to the estate of Amand with the intention of finding a way to gain his title.

Named a Guildmaster

Murder of the Alderman

Following the naming of Sigismund Asgrimsson as the Guildmaster for House Vesteinsson it was Sigismund who had completed his work as he now was placed in the line of succession for the Alderman of the Fiefdom of Hachiville and with this in place he would alongside Asleif, Estrid, Halldora ambush Erlend while he was taking part in his monthly hunt and with Erlend's death they buried him in a shallow grave and prepared for the next stage in the takeover of Hachiville. The first move that they made was to travel as a group westward to the outskirts of Maltsavy where at the Maltsavy Minor Minor Temple of Sigmar they would bribe the Sigmar priest there to marry Sigismund to first Thorve, and then following this marriage he also married Sigismund to Asleif taking them both as his wives.

Meeting a Viscount

With Erlend dead and his familiar heir Athelheah Vestiensson having been removed from the line of succession there was a lot of confusion over what would happen in the district but for his part Sigismund had his plan in place and thus was not surprised when he was recalled to Maltsavy as the highest ranking member of the District of Hachiville. Arriving in Maltsavy it was Sigismund who was dressed in the best clothes that Thorve had been able to gather for him and he has also brought with him several of the former slaves he has turned into his loyalists with him who act as his personal guards giving him a more wealthy view. As he prepared for his meeting with the Viscount it was Sigismund who met with Athelheah Vestiensson the scorned former heir of House Vestiensson and meeting with him he found that Athelheah was happy in his life as a merchant and seeing that he could use Athelheah's support he implied to Athelheah that he had discovered that Erlend had in fact killed Athelheah's father Polik and then banished Athelheah as part of a plot to gain complete power. Quick to believe this out of hatred of his uncle Erlend it was Athelheah who then further believed Sigismund when he was told that Sigismund had killed Erlend out of honor he felt towards Polik, and with all this in mind Athelheah agreed to accompany Sigismund to the meeting and support Sigismund in his attempt to become the Alderman of Hachiville.

New Alderman

Following everything that had happened Sigismund with his meeting with Fernand Reverdin and having been named Alderman it was Sigismund that returned to Hachiville with the political authority that he had searched for. Calling for everyone in the district to rally at Hachiville the meeting that he hosted several days after the call was attended by most of the districts population and during the meeting he created a sense of hysteria in the village ranks leading to them falling into line behind him.
