Do you want to know why I use a knife? Guns are too quick. You can’t savor all the… little emotions. In… you see, in their last moments, people show you who they really are. So in a way, I know your friends better than you ever did. Would you like to know which of them were cowards?
Harlaquin

Harlaquin or "Cahin Fluvia" was born the son of wealthy members of House Fluvia of whome made him a member of House Fluvia inside the Kingdom of Bretonia. Harlaquin would marry Helaquin and together they would become deeply in love.

Harlaquin would grow up in an extremely brutal household which was vastly wealthy but also very brutal and sadistic in the way they treated Harlaquin. His life would change when he would come to meet his future love Helaquin at the local market. She would be at the local market when she would see Harlaquin amongst the crowd and she would see him spying at her from afar. He would follow her when he had escaped his handlers and the two would hide out in a local abandoned farm for almost a month while a wide and important search went out in an attempt to find Harlaquin, but when they finally returned to the town he was accompanied by Helaquin and he would marry her the day of his return in a rushed marriage that would make her vastly more important then she could have ever imagined. Following this the two would go on a murdering rampage which would result in the murdering of his entire House alongside her family, and with this act they would both retreat from noble life and travel the French country side for years. Over this time they would gain fame amongst the shadowy elements and this would eventually lead to their involvement in the Order of Ravenholdt. She alongside her husband would spend the next many years as a member of the Ravenholdt Order alongside her husband and best friend Harlaquin. She would join her husband when Ezio arrived and asked for people to follow him to found the Order of the Violet Dragon, and the two would become Violet Lords upon the Order setting up its organizational leadership. Harlaquin would be put in charge of the Invasion of Saint Dreliville where he alongside House Mountain's forces would overwhelm the areas Orcs and capture the fortress thus blocking the Orcs from the Gap of Hohenstein.

History[]

Early History[]

Harlaquin was born in the French city of Paris, and as a young boy his aristocratic parents were completely corupt and the young Harlaquin was a witness to many of the failing morals of the Paris nobility. This would have been fine but he begin to become to source of an extreme amount of abuse which was led by his family members

Helaquin

Helaquin[]

"I find that everyone who takes the time to get to know someone usually finds they have more in comman then not. Its a sad truth of life that very few are mature, or kind enough to look past our masks or unique personalities, and come to know us as people. Stare all you wish for I have the love of my life by my side, and you are consumed by your hate."

-Helaquin

Maisa Flourantine was born into extreme poverty and early in her life she would have a visit from a noblemen that would change her life for the better. Her parents would often send her to the local town of Paris where she would attempt to sell their goods at the market since her father was too lazy to take them. She would be at the local market when she would see Harlaquin amongst the crowd and she would see him spying at her from afar. He would follow her when he had escaped his handlers and the two would hide out in a local abandoned farm for almost a month while a wide and important search went out in an attempt to find Harlaquin, but when they finally returned to the town he was accompanied by Helaquin and he would marry her the day of his return in a rushed marriage that would make her vastly more important then she could have ever imagined.

Harliquin5

The Spree[]

Following her marriage to Harlaquin she discovered how wealthy his family was, and the amount of pressure that they placed on him. This was fine with Helaquin but when he let it slip that his father had sexually abused him along with other members of his family joining in on this kind of behavior she refused to accept this kind of behavior. At first she begged him to leave but he was afraid of what his father would do, so they stayed for a time until one day his father beat him in front of her, and she became overcome with rage at seeing her love injured and she stabbed him through the neck with a knife. Watching his father die had a calming effect on Harlaquin and led to them without a word to eachother to simply begin stabbing his father over and over again. Following this they would engage intimately amongst the blood and violence of his father for hours. When they were finished his uncle and aunt would enter the room some time later and when they did without a word and nothing but a smile to her, Harlaquin walked up to them and stabbed his uncle through the head before killing his aunt as she tried to run away. Over the course of the next few hours he and Harliquin would massacre the rest of his family in a series of brutal attacks throughout the estate.

Ravenholdt[]

Centre Stage

Performance[]

It was while on a mission to assasinate a target in the Empire that Harlaquin and his wife Helaquin would gain their fame, as well as cement their loyalty to Ezio. Before this they had not known how to feel about Ezio and for them they had basically used this mission to find out whether they could trust him or not.

"Cahin laughs his way through the door. Caha tips over a candelabrum before tumbling out behind him. I remain convinced that they are totally mad... yet fun!"

-Ezio while watching The Quins during the performance

Cahin and Caha performed together, so as to lure an assigned target - a foreigner with some claim to royal blood - into the open. As Helaquin distracted their audience by juggling her daggers, Harlaquin slipped away and stabbed the man through his chair. In the chaos that followed, Harlaquin, Helaquin, and their ally, Ezio, finished off the rest of the guests.

Fall of Hispania[]

Fall of Hispania
We just sat there and let them destroy half the continent. It all could have been stopped so easily.
Sayden Ah-Salemi Cover
When High Mentor Gregor died I never thought...None of us thought Sayden was trying to do all this.
Ezio Ederiz

The Orcs inability to swim, or craft any sort of boat meant that the Romans had left this region dangerously undermanned believing that this water barrier would provide all the protection they needed. In fact there were more solders garrisoning the small Italian town of briensia, of which shared no border with any hostile nation, then there were in the castle of Gibraltar. As well as this undermanned garrison the original site of the castle was far enough back from the beach and the crossing that the soldiers couldn't see the crossing, and for this they relied on a small village with a large lighthouse along the coast. For years the Orcs of Emblam prepared for this crossing by massing a huge amount of troops in the lands of the former Roman provinces of Mauritania while the Kingdom of Senegal one of the human client states of Emblam begin preparations for the moving of the Orc armies across the Straits of Gibraltar. This bridge would be used by the Orcs to open up a new front in Europe, as they were being stalled in Africanas by the Nubian Empire, and the Kingdom of Lahmia.

The truth is I would watch the entire world burn to its very core to get what I want. What I want is for my Lord Tzeneech to return to his rightful role in this world.
Sayden Ah-Salemi

The Order of the Raven would be contacted during this time by Tanitha Ogriddit the Fourth Mistress of the Order of Ekrodomis and during this visit it was Gregor Davenholdt the High Mentor of the Ravens that soundly rejected helping them with such a morally bankrupt mission and threatened violence against Tanitha and her party if they did not leave. Following the departure of Tanitha it was Sayden Ah-Salemi that would follow her with several of his loyalists and realizing this was his moment to destroy the moral ravens he would agree to work with Tanitha and bring whatever support he was able to once he had gained control of the ravens. This action and agreement would lead to the Coup of Ravenholdt which once it was complete would lead to Sayden as the new High Minister and with this new power he would meet with the Empire of Emblam at the city of Banjul inside the Republic of Gambia where meeting with the Gambians and Senegese they would arrange to assist in controlling southern Hispania. Returning to Ravenholdt following this agreement it was Sayden that would send two of his loyalists in the form of the Raven Masters Vincent Vandame, and Hartwin Eberl to southern Hispania where they were to stop the castle of Gibraltar from communicating what was happening across the Straights of Gibraltar.

Fall of Gibraltar[]

Main Article : Massacre at Gibraltar

Hispania - Massacre at Gibraltar
If I would have known what I was actually doing...If I had of just simply looked past the lies I was being told. I could have stopped all of this.
Ezio Ederiz

Poncet Mariette would lead his Unkindness to the small castle of Gibraltar where arriving with his forces he links up with Vincent Vandame, and Hartwin Eberl and their forces all of whom are to combine their strength. Vincent and Hartwin had managed to keep any word from Gibraltar from leaving the area as well as sabotaged the boat at the port which was meant to be the first warning against movement to the south, and thus the Roman Empire remained unaware of the growing construction of the Bridge of Gibraltar. Entering the castle Ezio accompanies Poncet, Hartwin, and Vincent as they are introduced to a Roman Lieutenant named Postumius Iavolenus of whom they discuss the current regional situation with and Postumius reveals he has only gained a few dozen of the garrison to his side while the remainder remain loyal to Caelus Trebonius the Legate Tribune of the castle. With this in mind Poncet while clearly confused as to what there end goal is goes along with the plan that Vincent and Hartwin form in order to kill the garrison and then gain control of the port.

By the time we arrived at San Toque the whole village had been put to the sword. The Morag Tong were already doing their work, and there was no stopping what was happening.
Ezio Ederiz

The attack would be stalled by Vincent, and Hartwin who refused to tell Poncet why but instead commanded he and his Unkindess travel north and destroy the village of San Toque. Poncet would once again wilt under the pressure and accepted this command taking Ezio with him as they traveled to San Toque on this mission of destruction.

I can't change what we did that day. I can't ever ask for forgiveness. I can't take it back. All I can do is attempt to do some manner of good in the world before my demons eventually find me.
Ezio Ederiz

Following returning from the destruction of San Toque it was Poncet who met with the newly arrived Burama Jarju of whom was a member of the Morag Tong and was there to assist in the capture of Gibraltar. Together with the few traitors in the castle the forces of the Raven and the Morag Tong would attack the castle during the night and without any warning the defenders were mainly dead before any fight could be had, and the legate tribune would be assassinated by Poncet who alongside Ezio spoke briefly with the tribune before the kill discovering more details on what was actually happening.

Aftermath[]
This is not what I signed up for Ezio.
Benjamin Bradfoot

Ezio and Benjamin Bradfoot discussing the situation and Ezio feels the first pangs of doubt over his loyalties as Benjamin reveals he cannot accept what has happened and prepares to leave for Malta to warn the Order of the Purple Cloth about the happenings in southern Hispania. Ezio at first is prepared to kill Benjamin but their frienship and his confusion over the evil they had just taken part in leads Ezio to let Benjamin leave, and with this Ezio returns to the camp where he plans to tell them Benjamin was struck down and fell in the water.

Capture of Malaga[]

Main Article : Capture of Malaga

Hispania - Fall of Hispania - Consolidation

The town of Malaga was a major town located in the middle of the Malaga mountain chain, and with the Orcs massing in Gibraltar it was Malaga that was chosen as the place where they would situate their main organizational center. Wanting to take control of Malaga with as much of the infrastructure intact as possible the plan would be for a division of the Kingdom of Senegal, a division from Gambia, and a division from Songhei, to join the Order of the Raven and Morag Tong in capturing the town with as little violence as possible. Entering Malaga its Ezio who runs into a young man and seeing the boy snaps something inside him and leads Ezio to knock the young man out and leave him hidden in a celler telling no one of this outside of Erard Montaigu before they return to their mission of killing the seventh centurion. Entering the command headquarters for the seventh cohort of the 13th legion they would kill several legionarries who blocked their path to the main room, and upon reaching it found Caelius Paetinus inside with three legionarries but only one had his armor and weapon with him.

Fall of Almeria[]

Main Article : Fall of Almeria

The Invasion of Hispania would begin with an event known as the Fall of Almeria where they forces of Emblam alongside their allies having already taken much of south-eastern Hispania would surround the port of Almeria where the bulk of the Roman Fleet in Hispania had made its port. By this time there were rumblings around the Roman Empire that things were happening in Hispania but for the part of Appius Procyon the Legate Prefict in charge of the scouting for the 13th Legion he had no signs of attack and his scouts were not relaying anything of importance to him due to the work of the Morag Tong targeting them. At the onset of the Fall of Hispania Appius was in a small fortress just north of Almeria where he was dealing with negotiations with a small tribe of Spaniards and it was in this position that he was forced to fight for his life when Orcs attacked his fort during the larger Fall of Almeria. Having survived and rallied his forces during the events of the Fall of Almeria it was Appius who joined the Legate of the 13th linking up with the larger surviving forces of the 13th as they begin retreating northward towards Alicante.

Battle of Central Hispania[]

The Romans would send in six Legions as reinforcements in an attempt to stall the Orcs advance while they built up the defences of Valencia, Tourone, and Castile. The Legions arrived in Valencia and begin moving towards their respective spots but in an unfortuante turn of events the 13th Legion under Lucius Vorenus, and the 4th Legion under Titus Pulo would be stuck in Ravenna at port and didn't arrive until it was too late for them to reach Castile, and thus two Legions meant to defend Valencia moved towards Castile. These four Legions fighting at Castile attempted delaying tactics for nearly a month, but each battle left them more and more drained and they were less and less effective. The 2nd Legion managed to escape west towards Portugal, and it sucked off a portion of the Orcs that followed them as they retreated at full speed towards Tourone. The 9th Legion would be massacred by the Orcs outside of the city as they attempted to make their way inside, while the 10th Legion would escape that Battle and make it inside the city. The final legion in the 5th Legion would flee eastward effectively and would meet up with the newly arrived 13th, and 4th Legions in Valencia.

Battle for Tourone[]

Main Article : Battle for Tourone

Alexander Rousset would lead the forces of the Dutchy of Aquitaine into the area of Tourone where they planned on assisting the pushing out of the Orc forces from Hispania, but upon arriving in Tourone they discovered that the 5th Legion was no longer attempting to fight an offensive conflict and instead was in a fighting retreat back to Tourone in preparation for holding the area to allow people to escape, and with this in mind Alexander would send his son and the fleet south while he joined the effort to hold Tourone.

The Tourone Gap[]

Main Article : Battle of Tourone Gap

As a large force of refugees flowed into the Tourone area the usually Bretonian nationalist Alexander Rousset made the decision to hold the gap open at the risk of his own forces and this led to the Battle of the Tourone Gap where Alexander kept the gap open then led an ordered retreat out of the gap back to Tourone but was mortally wounded during the battle dying shortly before they arrived at Tourone.

Battle for Lisbon[]

Main Article : Great Battle for Lisbon

Lisbon Counter assault[]

It would be Alain Rousset that would following the command of his father take the Aquitaine Fleet and move southward to link up with the Roman Fleet at Lisbon for what he planned to be an eventual assault on the Straights of Gibraltar. Arriving at Lisbon Alain discovered that the Roman Fleet at Lisbon had been defeated by a naval force from the Emblam allied nation of the Kingdom of Songhei and learning the Roman Fleet had fled westward trying to escape it was Alain who led the Aquitaine Fleet westward in support and would come upon the Roman Fleet and the Songhei engaged in a fleet battle and with his arrival they shattered the Songhei Fleet and captured or killed the entire Songhei Fleet.

Fall of Castile[]

With the Fall of the resistence the Orcs made a straight line for Castile, and the massive millions strong Orcs Army surrounded the city and put it under siege. For days they hammered at the city but the stalwart defenders in the 10th Legion would succesfully hold them off under the mistaken belief that the other three legions were on their way to releave them. While the other three wanted to assist the 5th Legion was damaged and unable to move, and the 13th and 4th were facing massive opposition in the form of the Orcs advancing on Valencia. With no resistence coming Lucius Vorenus sent a raven to Bretonia where he said in the letter that Castile was going to fall if the Bretonians did not advance and assist them. Upon reading the letter the Bretonian King is said to have wept tears at the precarious situation that Europe had found itself in, and with all the news shifting in to his throne room he was sure that the letter was authentic. With all of this in mind the Bretonians were scared so much that they flooded into Hispania and made full speed towards Castile. The Bretonians were slowed down by the constant battles and because of this they arrived days to late, and watched as Castile fell and with it the hope of a human Hispania.

Battle of Valencia[]

With Castile gone the Orcs rampaged towards Valencia, and Andorra where they would come to fight massive battles which for the first time went against them as they discovered the Bretonians were able fighters with competent commanders unlike the Romans. The three sides fought constant battles and with Lucius Vorenus now having complete control the Romans were fighting more effectively and thus Valencia was a no go for the Orcs.


Second Crisis of Turnendorf[]

Main Article : Second Crisis of Turnendorf

The Second Crisis of Turnendorf
Do not forget that you are a good person prince. You will need memories of that in the coming days. Monsters are coming, and I fear you are the only one who can stop them.

Ezio's Work in Turnendorf[]

The situation on the mainland is spiraling quickly out of control. Baron Turnidlon is still hiding out in his keep while the entire province falls to the cult. The coward I heard even imprisoned his own son when the boy tried to step in. At this point its just the Rosler's holding out. If I were you I'd make sure they don't turn.
Marwin Nordidlon

Ezio that is meeting with Deacon Marwin Nordidlon, and his first enchanter Ursella Klorindorf. The three are discussing how the situation has deteriorated quite rapidly on the mainland due to the work of the cult that has done on the population. Marwin is unwilling to send his people to join while only House Rosler remains loyal to the crown, and his main concern is that House Rosler’s leadership may break. Marwin tells Ezio that an upcoming meeting at Rosler Castle is of the most immediate concern in this regard as two prominent members of the Voiceless Angels are traveling to the castle to attempt to bring the Roslers finally to their side. Ezio is also told that a major concern is the imprisonment of the leadership of House Burnendorf, and House Telstendil both of which are keeping those houses under the control of the Voiceless. Ezio leaves the Tower of Tuhrendlor alone, but as he gets on the boat its Ursella that joins him alongside her sister the Second Enchanter Ophellia Klorindorf. Travelling to Rosler Castle its Ursella that tells Ezio the story of how she became a Magi revealing that the Voiceless Angel have a device that allows them to create Magi users out of regular people without abilities. Arriving at Rosler Castle they see a boat flying the flag of the Voiceless and know they are arriving late. Entering the castle, they are let in out of respect for the Circle of Magi and are taken to the dining hall where a feast is being held. Entering the feast, they sit down together causing quite a stir as everyone there knows that they are there to clearly resist whatever the Voicless are going to push for. The Voiceless group is sitting nearbye and one of their members who Ursella names as Astrid Flortindorf II. - of whom she knows to believe a fanatic for the Voiceless – comes over and sits with them. Ezio and Astrid talk for a time with Astrid at first attempting to get the group to support the Voceless and arguing for their moral path, but Ezio views them as rebels who cannot be bargained with and so rejects this offer. Landsgrave Thomas Rosler III. makes a speech where he points out his desire to remain loyal to the crown, but also details that he will hear out the Voiceless before making his decision. Astrid speaks in front of the room describing the situation in Turnendorf as already being over, and that she and her order are not traitors to the crown, but instead are attempting to make the lives of the people better while also wanting to reconcile with the crown. As Thomas is about to speak its Ezio that interrupts and reveals that prince William is on his way to Turnendorf and that when he arrives, he will be destroying the Voiceless and to join them would be to doom everyone. With the revelation that the prince is coming its Thomas that refuses to support the Voiceless and requests they leave the castle which they begin to do but as they do an angered Astrid taunts Thomas about his daughter Taylor having joined them. This taunting leads to a fight breaking out but as Astrid uses her Magi its Ursella that resists her leading to a duel between the two. The duel goes for a few minutes before an apparition appears in the room. The apparition shows itself as Sogronul the leader of the Vicoeless one and demands that Astrid stand down which she does. The Voiceless leave the castle after this without resistance and the apparition of Sogronul speaks to Ursella forgiving her for leaving and threatening everyone in the room with death if they do not surrender. Ezio stands up to this voice using a Magi device he carries with him to block her Magi and cause the apparition to disappear.

I have spent my entire life trying to do what was right. I have fought for a king I loved. I have fought for a friend I trusted. I have watched my family grow around me...I have watched all this and in my heart I knew everything would be okay. I knew this because I believed in you. You were the foundation of my faith. The boy I knew would have never done the things you have done. You have allowed this...this...thing to take over everything you are. Everything that happens now is up to you. You choose what path you go. I have nothing to say in my Kill me now for seeing you. Seeing what you have become makes me realized I have nothing left to believe in. Take me from this world, and free of me knowing what you have become.

What have you heard about the situation on the mainland?” The Deacon Marwin sat back in his chair sipping on wine as I sat down in the chair offered to me. He appeared withdrawn. He appeared bored by my arrival.

I was told to come here and prepare the land as much as possible for the arrival of the prince. I would say basically nothing.” It was the truth. I knew that a cult had taken root again in the land, but as the actual on the ground situation I knew nothing.

Its not good Lord Ederiz. The entire mainland outside of the capital has basically fallen to the cult. The cult took control of the town of Klorindorf much to the shame of my young second here.” He nodded with disappointment at Ursella who scowled at him in response. “To this fall the baron did nothing.

Has he acted since?

He remains locked up in his keep. His yes men are now in charge of the city.” He laughed as he spoke the words. Leading to Ursella speaking up.

We heard Lord Ederiz that the Baron has imprisoned his sons for attempting to take a more active role in resisting the cult.” Marwin looked away towards the painting on the wall appearing overjoyed that Ursella had taken over speaking to me.

Do you believe that the Baron is in league with the cult?” I spoke now to Ursella who pulled out a large scroll and laid it across the table.

He’s in league with no one but his own cowardice Lord Ederiz.” She showed me each settlement across the province. Each one crossed off indicating their fall to the cult.

It sounds as if I must pay a visit to the Baron then.”

I would argue against this being your first move.” Marwin got up from his chair as she spoke, and he moved closer to the painting he was so enamored by.

Where would you argue I go?” Her hand instantly pointed to the map.

Rosler Castle is the seat of House Rosler, and it remains the only true powerbase outside of the capital outside of the cult’s hands. A meeting is being held there very soon. If things go badly during this meeting the prince may arrive to find his route blocked. The Rosler’s control most of the ships of the province.

So, if they turn the prince will be blocked in his movements.”

Correct. I would say that making sure the Rosler’s don’t join the cult is your main concern.”

I agree with this.” She pulled the scroll together and packed it back into her bag while Marwin continued staring at the painting.” I will leave immediately.”

We wish you luck on your trip.” He didn’t even turn towards me as he spoke the words.

What assistance may you provide my party with Deacon?”

I will supply you with a boat. More then this I cannot offer.”

I have the seal of the king Deacon. Surely you will provide me with more than this token offering.”

I will not. I am tasked with the protection of this tower. This tower is vital to the defense of this area. Only a directive from the king himself would make me intervene in the province.”

This seal is his directive.”

That seal grants you access. Access is not authority. I entertained your presence here. Consider anything further as a gesture of kindness.” The deacon

Deacon perhaps a compromise could be reached with Lord Ederiz here.” Ursella stepped in as the Deacon begin walking out of the room.

What do you suggest my loyal second?” --- “The cult took her sister when they took control of Klorindorf. She was the wife of Estmar Turnidlon.”

He was imprisoned by the baron?

If the rumors are true. It sounds as if he demanded command of the army to retake control of Klorindorf and get his wife back. His father disagreed.”

Do we know why he has acted this way? It would appear to me to be the acts of a man siding with the cult.”

He lost a lot in the previous cults uprising.”

Your father cannot fix this. He is not the man he was when the Voiceless rose the first time. This is your time.

I have watched my family grow around me...I have watched all this and in my heart I knew everything would be okay. I knew this because I believed in you. You were the foundation of my faith. The boy I knew would have never done the things you have done. You have allowed this...this...thing to take over everything you are. Everything that happens now is up to you. You choose what path you go. I have nothing to say in my Kill me now for seeing you. Seeing what you have become makes me realized I have nothing left to believe in. Take me from this world, and free of me knowing what you have become.

You should be exploring every feeling that you have my prince.

Glaurung himself said that while life has many meanings to it. One of the main is to find happiness. To find joy. To feel love. How better to feel all those things then to let yourself go.

How do I do that Ar-Brentey?” She smiled at me before sliding herself closer to me. Her hips rested up against me, and her hand moved onto my chest.

Shall I help you?” As her hands ran down my arm and towards my waist, I couldn’t find the words. I just nodded.

Time at Krebville[]
While we are at Krebville you will be meeting with the Northern Lucernian lords. You want there help with this campaign. You need them for anything that you plan to do in the future.
Seri-Relisia Terrick
Meeting with Council of Destill[]
We need you to help us faciliate a conversation with the prince. In return for this help I will promise to help you..
Aranna Jovinsson

Edward Cullen is walking through the streets of Krebville with Jasper when he begins seeing the vision of a women hovering over a building in front of him. Going into his pocket he puts the ring on his finger and shakes off the feeling. Continuing to walk with Jasper the two go back to joking when he feels the ring fall off his finger. As this happens the girls appears again in front of him now holding the ring, but she clearly cannot be seen by Jasper. Using an excuse, he leaves Jasper and follows the girl down an alleyway where she waits for him. The two speak for a time where she introduces herself as Aranna Jovinsson and that she represents a group she calls the Council of Destill who want to speak with him, and by extension she hints they want to speak with prince William. Edward tells her that he will speak with William but when could they offer prince William that would bring him to the table with them. At this she holds out a tiny scroll and hands it to Edward telling him to read it and then when he and William agree to the meeting that she will be found at the docks just west of Krebville tonight. She walks away from him leaving him to open the scroll and reading the contents he discovers that this scroll which is known as “The Codex of Sogronul” details a plot by this Sogronul to convert large numbers of women in Turnidlon to Magi and then create an army from them. Following the Shadow Council discussing things its William that sits up from the table and asks Edward’s opinion of what they should do. It becomes clear to Edward in this moment that William is giving him the final decision powers and Edward wanting to help William pushes the idea of meeting with the girl. With the plan decided on it’s the Shadow Council that sneaks from the Krebville palace grounds joined by several prominent guards and heads towards the docks. Also, among this group going to the meeting are Aelfwynn Turnidlon, Tanya Denali, and Ar-Brentey Hemsworth. Arriving at the docks they find several women waiting for them. Aranna Jovinsson steps forward and thanks William for coming and then goes into the deal that she wants to make. She offers to help William in his campaign against the Order of the Voiceless Angel and in return they ask that William requests two things. Firstly, they want William to authorize the founding of a Guild for them which has been rejected up and till now because of its Magi origins. Secondly, they request that House Reinmann make House Gollwitzer an Ealdorman so that the guild would be further protected. William agrees to these demands and following this the girls swear an oath of loyalty to William and say that in the morning they will be at Krebville with a boat to join his forces in their final journey to Turnidlon.

Seas to Rosler Castle[]
I look at you and I see a young man that is drowning. You are so lost Edward Cullen. Let me help you.
Madeline Gollwitzer

Edward, and Tanya leave the Shadow Council and join the boat of Aranna as the fleet leaves Krebville and while sad to not be with the Shadow Council he does look at this an opportunity as William told him to eventually lead a Magi guild that the two want to create once he is king. While on the boat towards Rosler Castle he is introduced to the other Magi aboard the boat in the form of Laisa, and Elissa Klorinsson, Cercilia Borisson, and Frida Scheid.

The Prince Arrives[]

The Meeting at Turnendorf[]

William, Edward, and Jasper join a small group of the upper command in moving from the main fleet towards the tiny lighthouse island outside of Turnendorf in order to meet with the Voiceless leader a women described as the voiceless angel.

The Meeting of the Prince's Fleet[]

After leaving Sogronul on the island its William that discusses things with his commanders as the small boat returns to the fleet, and its Oberyn, and Benjamin that push for William to move quickly against the Voiceless and use the distraction the fleet provides to do it. Returning to the fleet its William that calls a meeting of the leadership, and while the leadership gathers its William that meets first with his Shadow Council of whom he talks openly about his position in the upcoming meeting and they each give their opinions. Following this its William that meets with Ar-Brentey of whom further pushes William to make the aggressive play in this situation. The two kiss and William tells her that he is seriously considering her idea of taking multiple wives, but tells her that while he can see himself marrying her he cannot fully agree to the multiple wives until he has discussed things with Leven.

Arrival of the Circle[]
Cardinal Amund has sent me here so that you might understand the faith that we have in you. In the past I know that what we have done may make you question us, but I am here to assure you that Cardinal Amund is someone that you may trust.
Marwin Nordidlon

Following this they are surprised by the arrival of a boat carrying the flag of the Circle of Magi, and rejoining the leadership they meet with Deacon Marwin Nordidlon, alongside his First Enchanter Ursella Klorindorf. The Circle of Magi group would under the direction of Marwin swear themselves to William’s cause and this would cement in William’s mind that the aggressive approach was the proper path. Marwin would be sent to Rosler Castle to support what would be a side move to retake Nordidorf a large town controlled by the Voiceless but this attack was planned for what William timed would be after their capture of the more important Castle Telstendil. While Marwin would do this it was First Enchanter Ursella that would join his force alongside a small group of Circle members to further supplement their Magi forces, and she was assigned by William to work under his increasingly very trusted friend Aelfwynn.

Battle of Castle Telstendil[]

Arriving well away from the island of Telstendil the leadership of the fleet meets on the White Dragon of the Valley and they plan out how they will take control of the island. Telstendil is defended by a series of lightly garrisoned watch towers that dot the south of the lsland on the edge of the massive bluffs that are a main feature of the island. If the guards are able to see the fleet before they are able to land troops then the element of surprise is over and the castle will be warned leading to a fleet action having to be taken and many lives lost that William is trying to avoid. In order to do this its Benjamin that details a plan where they will use the night to swim to the edge of the bluff and then use climbing tools to ascend the bluffs reaching the towers where they can easily take out the guards peacefully. William uses his leadership position to delegate command of the fleet to Oberyn Martell while he will join the climbing group led by Benjamin. The leadership group is very against him doing this due to the danger but he overrides them all and forces them to move on to the next steps of the plan. Joining William and Benjamin is Jasper, and Lyanna alongside one of Benjamin’s men named Florian Couvreur, and as the sun begins to disappear in the sky its Benjamin that attempts once more to change William’s mind on coming with him. William succeeds in convincing Benjamin of the wisdom of him coming with him, and they get into the water making the long swim towards the bluff, and during this swim it’s the group that occupies themselves as best they can but even William is fearful in the dark water.

Fall of Castle Telstendil[]

Taylor Rosler would be at Castle Telstendil when the forces of William Lovie III. attacked the town and during this battle she would be captured by the Lucernians without incident.

Docking at Mestilghot[]

Taylor would be taken by the Lucernians as they moved northward and falling under the guardianship of Wuldrik Toyne she would be convinced by him to see the start of a new life and shown care for the first time in years she felt a strong pull to support the Lucernians as the days went by.

Fall of Trestilghar[]

While the main army

Fall of the Keep[]

The chapter ends with William, and his elite force entering the keep of Trestilghar and entering the keep they are forced to fight against several Drakah but they outnumber the Drakah badly and the defenders are wiped out leaving William and his group to begin searching the rooms for the leadership of the town. William, Edward, Leven, Aelfwynn, Jasper, and several knights all go through the main door and find two girls who attempt to use Magi against them but Aelfwynn and Edward resist them as well as their runic armor and the girls are then restrained revealing themselves as Angels of the Voiceless One. Following the Battle of Trestilghar it was Byron that convinced Aelfwynn that Edward's Magi was a threat to William finding out that she was taken on the role of other girls so that she could be with him, and with her help he begin plans to conspire to have William send Edward southward towards Mortildorf instead of joining them at Thaig Roelet.

Battle of Turnendorf[]
Edwards Southern March[]

Main Article : Battle of Mortildorf

Battle of Mortildorf
Edward I need you to go south. Take Mortildorf and hold the road until we have taken Roelet. Once we do we will head south to you. I need you to do this for me my friend. There is no one else I would trust with this.
William Lovie III.

Greta Rosler would reach Mortildorf before the Lucernian army arrived there and taking charge of the defense of the town she would send further updates to Songronul as she prepared for the arrival of the Lucernians. Leaving the main army at the head of his force he marches at the front carriage joined in this carriage by Dylan Steinmare, and Lyanna Starke while Trent of Klorindorf rides alongside them. Edward doesn’t talk much with Dylan as they ride south, but he and Lyanna talk as they always do. Lyanna and Edward talk with Trent about where he grew up and he tells them of his childhood near Klorindorf and gives them his own opinion of the Voiceless Angels who he appears very angry at. Lyanna and Edward talk about how Edward misses Tanya and that he wants to talk with his father about a true betrothal to her. As they talk about love its Lyanna that is reluctant to get into it but it seems clear to Edward that she is talking about William when she talks about wanting someone she cannot have. During the march its Oliver Meigstrad II. and his forces that form the secondary leadership of this force as he Reigstrad forces are almost half of the overall force that Edward leads south. Not knowing Oliver well its Edward, Dylan, Oswald, and Lyanna that invite him onto their carriage which he accepts alongside his son Markus Meigstrad, and his top commander Edric JuestredAs the carriages get further down the road the commander of the scouts (find man) tells them that the road and woods are heavily scouted and that he doesn’t see a path to sneaking to the castle. Edward stops the entire force and calls all the unit commanders to the front of the carriage. Meeting together they decide that sneaking is no longer an option and thus they will reach the outskirts of the town fully prepared for battle. Reaching the break in the forest where the scout said the castle would be visible, they are met by the sight of the deployed force of the Voiceless. Several lines of Draknoid soldiers are arrayed in front of the castle and the group questions why they would deploy outside the walls instead of hunkering down for a siege. At the onset of the Battle of Mortildorf it was Trent of Klorindorf and Greta Rosler that got into an argument with Trent taunting Greta over her daughter having turned, and then Greta revealing that House Klorindorf assisted the rise of the Voiceless in exchange for the Voiceless turning many people of Klorindorf to Magi sensitives.

Did the honorable Trent tell you about why so many of the Klorindorf’s have Magi?

Why don’t you stop talking and take your wand out. We end all this right here.

Making deals with Klorindorf’s men has always been helpful for the Voiceless. Tell them how your lord sold us information and ignorance in exchange for our help.”

Enraged by the taunting of Trent it was Greta that left the battle line and engaged in a duel with Trent and defeated him before using a death Magi blow on him which led to Edward removing his ring and engaging her and despite his lack of experience his raw power overwhelmed Greta leaving her a smoking ruin. The death of Greta would cause panic in the lines of the Voiceless as she was the most senior commander there with the only other commander being the thirteen-year-old Kendra Numeterix of Morrot who briefly attempted to lead the other girls but as this panic was seen from the Lucernian lines it was Edward that ordered a charge of his forces at them. As the uncontrolled Dragonkin lashed against the control of the Voiceless it was the attacking Lucernians that cut them down leading to the Voiceless members surrendering or being hacked down by the enraged Dragonkin.

Occupation of Mortildorf[]

Following the battle it was Edward that made quick work of establishing control of the castle and the area around it, but his main focus became the fortifying of the castle which was rundown after its occupation by the Voiceless. Edward would send scouts south of the castle towards the nearby siege of Turnendorf but they didn't reach the castle as by this point the Voiceless army was already on the march northwards.

First Battle of Thaig Roelet[]

Main Article : First Battle of Thaig Roelet

Thaig Roelet - New
This fort stands as their capital. We take it and they will be forced to come back here and retake it. This is how we force them to fight us on our terms.
William Lovie III.

William watches as Edward’s convoy moves southward and as he thinks on whether it was a mistake to send Edward south its Byron that comes to him and supports William on his decision. During this conversation Byron reveals that it was him that first put the idea into William’s head and thus even if it was wrong Byron makes William understand that the guilt would be spread out and not just on him. William leads the army towards Thaig Roelet, which they are approaching during the night so that they will be able to surround and prepare without the defenders becoming aware of them. Reaching a half an hour away the army sets up camp in the forest and prepares for the night where they will attack. During the day its William that meets with many people in the army buts its Leven that he really wants to speak with about her opinion on the arrangement being discussed between the four. As the camp is secured and they have time before the final meetings its William that walks with Leven into the forest and the two find a quiet spot to talk.

The Night Attack[]

The army executes the plan and moves slowly towards the camp with the front groups reaching the wall without issue, and seeing the success of the anti-warding its William that makes the signal to climb the walls and enter the camp. As one of the front line its William that moves quietly through the camp attempting to make it as far as he can in, and this move is stopped by a young girl coming out of one of the tents. As she does its Byron that lunges at the girl covering her mouth with a rag to keep her quiet.

Aftermath[]

Jocelyn Nordidlon would be captured during the First Battle of Thaig Roelet and placed inside the dungeon following this battle she would very hateful towards the Order seeing it as too weak to even protect them in their own capital, and this hate would allow her to ignore the attempts by the other imprisoned leaders to keep them from assisting the Lucernians.

Locking the Vault[]
Astrid Flortindorf II
It will take you months to enter this Vault Lord Toyne. My Lady has been warned of what has happened her and it will not be long before she comes for you.
Astrid Flortindorf II.

Alice Telstendil would be at Thaig Roelet when William Lovie arrived at the fortress and inside the actual Thaig she was forced by Astrid Flortindorf II. inside the vault to keep the staff safe despite Alice having by this point lost faith and wanting to surrender. Alice would be targeted by Wuldrik Toyne following the occupation of Thaig Roelet by William Lovie III. as she had secretly taken off her ring of protection allowing Wuldrik to recruit her to his side of attempting to break into the Vault of Thaig Roelet. As Wuldrik worked with Aelfwynn and the other Magi sensitives in Williams force to enter the Fade it was Olivia that was exposed to this by Alice Telstendil who damaged the ring of protection that Olivia Restildon had and this allowed her to be targeted in her dreams by Wuldrik who worked to turn Olivia to his side.

You two ruined everything. All you had to do was stay loyal.
Astrid Flortindorf II.

Olivia would go against the plan and attempted to open the vault but was stopped by Astrid who tortured Olivia and during this torture Olivia revealed that Alice Telstendil had been turned leading to a duel between the two which ended with Alice fleeing into the deeper part of the Vault. Ursella would at the urging of Angela take Leven hostage in a move that allowed several of the loyalist girls out of their cells where they were eventually cornered but not before they gained control of a Shiftstone. Confronted during this escape it was Ursella that finally gave into her doubt and turned against the Voiceless Angels releasing Leven instead of killing her but in response she would be fatally wounded by Angela.

Put down the dagger Angela.” The girl didn’t look scared. She looked resolute.

You all put yours down and then I’ll know your serious about me not dying here.” She pointed at us with the dagger and the movement grazed across Leven’s face eliciting a painful response.

Everyone just calm down. Put down your weapons.” As I lowered my staff, I took a silent movement of my leg preparing to lunge towards them.

For Lady Songronul” Angela pushed Leven to the ground in between us. In the instant it happened I lunged towards Leven to get her into my arms and shield her from anything that might happen. As I pulled Leven away, I watched as Angela stabbed poor Ursella just below the neck.

Stop her!” I heard someone yell out but as I gently let Leven down and move towards Angela, she grabbed the blue stone and with a quick smile she disappeared into nothing.

“She has entered the Fade.”

“We must follow her.”

“Were divived right now. Most of our number are working on the spell. We split ourselves further we will never complete it.”

“If we defeat them in the fade we won’t have to.”

We can’t…”I stopped suddenly as I watched Leven step to the table. The entire world seemed to slow as I realized what she was doing. “Leven do not do that.”

She’s right though. This is the fastest way.” With a small smile she grabbed the blue orb off the table and disappeared into nothing.

Do not follow me. Put the orbs into a safe and then help with the ritual.”

Wuldrik I can help you.”

You have your direction.” I turned away and grabbed the blue orb. As I touched the smooth surface, I don’t know what I expected to happen. But as soon as my fingers made contact, I felt a jolt of pain and pleasure, as if my very soul was being torn apart and stitched back together. I screamed, but no one could hear me. As the world around me shook and changed I closed my eyes. As I opened them, I felt a hand on my shoulder and smiled at the sight of Leven. Looking around I knew immediately the change.

Fight for the Vault[]

As the Vault of Thaig Roelet was about to the infiltrated by Wuldrik Toyne and his forces it was Astrid that attempted to stop him by removing her protective ring and engaging Wuldrik in the Fade where she was horribly over matched and despite Wuldrik attempting to take her alive she would force him to kill her.

The Western March[]

Main Article : Second Battle of Mortildorfhet

Following the capture of Thaig Roelet it was Laisa Klorinsson II. that would lead a force westward alongside Jack Shephard towards Mortildorfhet where they knew a large number of rebel forces were being held captive by a mercenary group, and arriving at Mortildorfhet they found the guards were outnumbered immensely by the prisoners. Ella Mortikore would be still bedridden when a splinter force sent by William Lovie III. arrived at Mortildorfhet and her forces would be surrounded leading to her ordering a general surrender to the Lucernians leading to her and her forces being brought to Thaig Roelet alongside the released rebels.

Ar-Brentey's Move[]
Ar-Brentey Hemsworth Cover Amazing - Midgard20
So many people have so many different goals here. The truth is Aria, that only the plans and goals of you and I matter here. All these others. They don't matter to us.
Ar-Brentey Hemsworth

As the main army moved away from Trestilghar it was Ar-Brentey and almost all of the noble girls that had accompanied the army that remained behind and for Brentey this was an isolation that she knew at this time she could not accept. Ar-Brentey free of the leadership of William would begin making adjustments to her position in the idea that for her the only people she was truly loyal to were William, Aria, and perhaps Leven. With this in mind the first move she made was to send away several of the remaining noble girls in the party to the island of Mestilghot for the on the surface purpose of more protection. The first girl that they were planning to send away was Tanya Cullen who on the surface was a close friend to the Shadow Council and the future wife of Edward Cullen. Unfortunately for Tanya it was Ar-Brentey that had joined the rising number who viewed Edward as a threat to their own position and thus in a move to further isolate him they would attempt to send Tanya to Mestilghot. Another of the girls being sent away was Alysane Mountain who seeing what was happening would decide to make a move against Ar-Brentey when she approached Dallia and told her about the offer that had been made to her about the group marriage by Ar-Brentey. Dallia would not believe Alysane at first and not wanting to believe that Ar-Brentey was conspiring in such a way she pushed forward the timeline of the girls being moved to Mestilghot and brought Ar-Brentey closer when she gave her authority over the execution of this move. One of the girls that was being sent to Mestilghot was Seri-Relisia Terrick and not wanting to be away from William she would make her move to protect herself. Relisia and Alysane had become close during the journey and thus Relisia was told by Aylsane that she was going to tell Dalia leading to Relisia following her and witnessing the conversation between Aylsane and Dallia. Having heard the truth of the conversation she would the use this information to go to Ar-Brentey and reveal that Dallia had been told of her plans with the group marriage. In order to show herself as not a threat she would tell Ar-Brenrey that she was in love with Dylan Steinmare, and had no interest in William as anything other then a friend. Ar-Brentey would make the mistake of believing that Dallia had believed the lie and was going to send her away as well and in this belief she would get the assistence of Relisia in getting aboard Dallia's boat.

He couldn't continue helping, not with the voices in his head. They whispered to him, taunting him, tempting him, trying to make him do terrible things.

"Kill them, Edward. Kill them all. They don't deserve to live. You are the chosen one, the master of death. You have the power to end their miserable lives. Do it, Edward. Do it now."

Edward shook his head and gripped the railing. But it was no use. The voices were inside his mind, not outside. He couldn't escape them. He couldn't silence them. He could only endure them.

He was trapped, in his own body, in his own mind, in his own hell. And then as he opened his eyes, he found himself alone in a giant meadow. He was alone. I turned around. “Lyanna!” I looked around. There was no one. Then I turned around again and saw her. The same purple robes. The same calm look in her eyes.

You should be proud that someone as untrained as yourself was able to survive this long.

Where have you taken me?

You are in my home. This is the place I was born.”

Release me.”

I wish that I could. Despite your lack of control, you have immense power. If only you could control yourself, you could have changed all this.”

What are you doing?”

While you are in here with me, I am killing everyone in the castle.”

Let me out!”

Does it make you angry to know that your friends will soon be dead?”

LET ME OUT!” I felt the anger flow from my body and as I blinked the meadow in front of me begin shifting back to the castle. As the world around me shifted I closed my eyes and begin screaming out of pain. After what felt like several minutes the pain dissipated and I could hear screaming all around me and pang of an explosion. I opened my eyes as I felt a drop of blood splatter on my face. I looked up, and saw a soldier fall from the tower. I wiped the blood away as I looked on still overcome with rage.

It can’t be my sister that ends it now can it.”

Your sister died for a greater cause then you could possibly imagine.

My sister died for nothing.”

“How can you say that? Everything we planned. Did you forget everything I taught you?”

Its just your vanity. There is no grand plan. There is nothing but you tricking little girls into following you to their death.”

I’m sorry you have lost faith. I see from your necklace you have taken on your master’s tokens.” She looked at the necklace with pure distain. I knew she had hated the Dragonoph religion before I had left, but the hatred in her eyes told me that distain had escalated.

I have found faith.” I clutched my necklace.

You know that its still not too late to come back to me little one.

She’s not your slave anymore.”

“Is she your slave now prince?” Sogronul looked towards him and seeing the look on her eyes I felt jealousy run through my body.

Raise your staff.” I felt my wand raise to point in her direction. I could hear muffled talking from around me, but everything had gone black. The world faded away as I watched her pull the staff in front of her.

So, it ends.”

Invasion of Westbridge[]

Main Article : Invasion of Westbridge

Infiltration of Westbridge
This was a completely different way to fight a war. We had practiced it in Fairmarket, and to a certain extent again in the Riverlands, but it wasn't until Westbridge that I fully understood the scope of what we had learned.

Infiltration of Westbridge[]

Order of the Violet Dragon
Wars had become two sides slugging at eachother and ninety percent of the time both sides took a lot of casualties while the side that won was the side that had more men. I wanted to make war a strategy, and to that end I was going to work tirelessly to make sure I killed as many possible while losing the least possible.
William Lovie III.

Before the actual invasion could be started, and two weeks before the forces of Lucerne begin marching northwards towards the land of House Malfoy, William Lovie got together with the Order of the Violet Dragon in order to change the way they were going to fight wars. William understood that the high walls, and formidable defenders meant that an attack would be met with heavy casualties and in order to continue expanding there was no way he could afford taking the casualites that would occur in a straight up siege. In order to bybass this he and the Order of the Violet dragon planned to use an incredibly high amount (the entire order) in order to assasinate key defenders that were not wanted after the siege, as well as to sabotage several sections of the defences as well. The plan called for also the infiltration of elements of the Order of the Green Dragon into the city for the purpose of cultivating relationships with those they might want in leadership positions after the battle.

Dran Arryn2

Dran Arryn was responsible for turning the lands of his realm against the Malfoy's and was a backbone of the northern assault.

It was an entirely knew way of fighting wars, and one had to be completely on board of the style or you risked having your foot half in half out.
Ezio Ederiz

As the armies of Lucerne massed in the valley the Order of the Violet Dragon moved northward in their entire strength and silently over the course of a few days infiltrated the city of Westbridge. The Order already had sympathizers in the city as House Malfoy was extremely unpopular in Westbridge and as such it wasn't hard to find people that were loyal. With roughly a month before the army of Lucerne was to arrive the forces of the Order of the Violet Dragon went about changing schedules for the defenders so as to weaken sections of the wall. Those who it was planned to survive the conflict were basically given vacations on the day of the conflict so that they would not be caught up in the conflict. As well as this they begin setting up a rather sophisticated, and well equipped rebel army north of the city that was to be used by the Order of the Blue Dragon in order to facilitate their distraction north of the city. This force was headed by the realm of Heathfall which was led by the exile of Lucerne in the form of Dran Arryn. This force numbered in its thousands and would basically form the entirety of the northern assault alongside the Order of the Blue Dragon. Working alongside this army though was the army of Dowenshire of whom also was assisting thus bringing their numbers actually quite high. With the plan in place for the invasion of Westbridge, Edward and his wife Emmy were ordered to assail the northern watch and weaken its defences in preparation for what would be the nearly solo assault by the Order of the Blue Dragon. In order to do this they went about finding who was in command there and what the weakeness es of these commanders were. They discovered that Luke Labeouf was one of them and he was on the list of people that needed to be protected from harm. The other two commanders were painful failures which despite the best efforts of Luke he couldn't get rid of. The first man was lured in by Emmy Shephard and she killed him in the street making it look like a robbery. The second man was more difficult as he was constantly accompanied by a group of three hentchmen and they couldn't have anyone alerted to what was happening. With this in mind they began setting Luke up for protection.

Hiding Luke Labeouf[]
Emmy Shephard2

During the lead up to the invasion of Westbridge Luke remained in charge of the northern gate of Westbridge, and it was during this time that he came to meet a man named Edward Shephard who met him over the course of every night at the local tavern. Each time they met this Edward man told Luke about the beauty of his home in Lucerne and the two grew closer as Edward's wife Emmy Shephard grew close to Luke's wife Stacey. This foursome friendship had happened quickly and on the day of the invasion Luke was suprised to find he had the time off for that day and since he was free Emma and Stacey made plans for the four of them. The plan was to take a boat onto the river and fish which all four enjoyed doing.

As the four reached far enough away from Westbridge Emmy, and Edward used potions to stun Stacey, and Luke and this caused Luke and Stacey to be uncontious floating in the boat during the course of the Invasion of Westbridge.

The Third Man[]
Movements of Morrigan[]
Morrigan Cover Amazing1
Being the slave of a monster doesn't leave you much hope for doing good things with your life. It was maybe two months before William was to launch the Invasion of Westbridge when my whip called me. Flemeth told me that I should go to Bill Lovie and do whatever he wanted of me, and from what she was saying she wanted me to have Bill Lovie warn the Malfoys and lead to the destruction of William's plans. Little did I know Brooke that Bill Lovie wanted me instead to help his son.
Morrigan

With only a few months to go before William Lovie III. would lead the army of Lucerne into its massive suprise attaack on the city of Westbridge it would be Flemeth that called upon Morrigan and commanded that she go to Orleans and get orders from Bill Lovie. Flemeth heavily hinted that her belief was that Bill Lovie could be convinced to command Morrigan to travel to Westbridge and warn the defenders and while the Lucernian army was being destroyed at Westbridge Bill Lovie could lead an army of Orcs through the western pass and destroy the Valley of Lucerne. Morrigan instead would arrive at Orleans to find Bill Lovie commanding her to go to Westbridge and kill a group of Magi called the Vipers of whom he explained were a secret group within the Deatheaters of whom remained in Westbridge and would allow for Lord Voldermorte to return to the city. Not believing her ears she would quickly take these commands and after speaking to Bill Lovie about how William was she would make her way to Westbridge using her griffon, of which allowed her to reach Westbridge a few weeks before the Lucernian invasion of the city was to begin.

I forced the first man to tell me where the target was. Once I found this Viper I tortured him to find where the second Viper was. I watched the second man for nearly two weeks before finally killing him while William attacked the gates.
Morrigan

Morrigan would arrive in Westbridge and immediately go to find the first Deatheater she could in the form of a low level Deatheater of whom had been left behind by the Order of the Violet Dragon due to his drinking problem and lack of any real abilities in Magi. Seducing him at the tavern she took to what she said was her place, but in fact was nothing more then an abandoned house she had placed charms on to make it so no sound got out. Questioning him revealed the location of the first Viper, and despite telling him that she would let him go if he revealed who the Viper was she would kill him leaving his body in the house without a second thought. The Viper was revealed to be taking on the role of a servant in the House Malfoy estate and thus Morrigan would manipulate the head of the servants of House Malfoy into giving her a job with the servants as well and in this role she would discover he slept in the basement. Not waiting for night she would go into the basement finding him praying out loud to Lord Voldermorte and without even a word to him she knocked him on the back of the head putting him unconscious. Waking up twice more and having Morrigan knocking him out each time finally night would come and she dragged him to the shore of the House Malfoy estate where she put him into a small boat and rowed them out into the water. Summoning mist to her side and once again placing noise suppression charms about the boat she would torture him for two days on board the boat until finally he gave up the location of the other Viper still in the city of whom she discovered was playing the part of a guardsmen at the main gatehouse.

"Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I’m a dog chasing cars. I wouldn’t know what to do with one if I caught it. You know, I just… do things. The nobles have plans, the gaurds they have plans, my father's got plans. You know, they’re schemers. Schemers trying to control their little worlds. I’m not a schemer. I try to show the schemers how pathetic their attempts to control things really are. So, when I say… Ah, come here. When I say that you and your girlfriend was nothing personal, you know that I’m telling the truth. It’s the schemers that put you where you are. You were a schemer, you had plans, and look where that got you. I just did what I do best. I took your little plan and I turned it on itself. Look what I did to this city with a few drums of wildfire and a couple of loyal pawns. Hmmm? You know… You know what I’ve noticed? Nobody panics when things go “according to plan.” Even if the plan is horrifying! If, tomorrow, I tell the newspapers that, like, a gang criminals will get their heads chopped off, or an army will be massacred, nobody panics, because it’s all “part of the plan.” But when I say that one little old mayor will die, well then everyone loses their minds! Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I’m an agent of chaos. Oh, and you know the thing about chaos? It’s fair!"

Lucernian Intervention in Harrenhall[]

Lucernian Counter-Attack
You came to our lands and reaved. These are the consequences of you entering the lands of the Dragon.
Route of the Harrenhall Revenge - Maps
The capture and death of our people on the Rhine was a moment of immense pain, but through that change came our revenge. We would strike at their great Harrenhall conquest and show them what death looked like.
Mathew Clegane

Following the capture of Catelyn Starke and the deaths of many during the ambushes that followed the rise of Euron Greyjoy it was the decision of William Lovie III. that revenge needed to be struck. The Ironborn were at this point becoming stretched quite thin as they were still embroiled in a siege at Harrenhall, but alongside that they had assaulted the Sunset Islands where they maintained a large garrison now, as well as launching a major assault of Seagard which left their forces severely diminished, and it was in this position that William would make his move against the Iron Islands. Calling on the Order of the Violet Dragon, and the Order of the Red Dragon he would send two brigades of the Waffen Red Dragon Army to Harrenhall, but he also sent both Harlequin, and Helaquin (accompanied by their Whelplings) as well to the contested city of Harrenhall. Mathew Clegane was the Major in command of the 11th Lole Brigade, while he was joined by Alester Floren in command of the 3rd Brightwater Brigade and together the Majors in the Waffen Army would share joint command and join the forces of Harlequin, and Helaquin who were in charge of the Violet's that were sent to the city. While Mathew Clegane had been given orders to assist House Strong in capturing the city and evicting the Ironborn from the city, silently revenge was also in play as the assassins were commanded to kill as many of the Greyjoy's that were present in Harrenhall as they possibly could.

Matthew Clegane Large
We arrived at Harrenhall and were greeted by the Strong's of whom were beyond happy to see us.
Mathew Clegane

The Lucernian force would travel by heavy combat boat from Fairmarket thus avoiding once again the Trident of which was not blocking ships but might reveal their departure. Landing in Boralus breifly they would pick up some sixty troops from House Proudmoore of whom were to join on the campaign, and some one hundred troops of several other Kul Tiras Houses. Travelling northward up the Rhine they went passed the Lorderon pass and took the northern river through to the Strom River where they then went south and skirted near the Stone Islands before landing west of Harrenhall. Unoticed by any of the Ironborn forces they would enter the city from the western gate of which was controlled by the forces of House Strong and there arrival was met by great applause and happiness. Since the turning of House Tarth to the forces of House Strong things had been going very well for the Strong forces, but the leadership of Euron Greyjoy had flooded Harrenhall with Ironborn. Also accompanying these Ironborn were the recently captured forces of the Sunset Islands of whom had sent some two thousand troops to Harrenhall under the command of the honorable Ser Gunthor of the Sunset Islands. Due to the increase in Ironborn forces the Strong forces had lost control of increasing amounts of land, and the fortress market had been ground down by siege machines brought in by Ser Gunthor. Arriving in the city the Violet's would move away from the main force and meet with Renly Strong of whom had been placed in command of the assasins missions in Harrenhall

Harrenhall - Maps2
We moved into the area east of Fogburn Keep and planned to defeat their forces and link up with the Tarly forces. It was a simple plan, and if we were victorious it would be immense for the future of Harrenhall.
Mathew Clegane

With Ser Gunthor and the main force of the Sunset Islands attacking the marketplace, it was Robert Strong, and the Lucernians that turned and moved towards the are east of Fogburn Keep and south of the Tarly lands. Attacking with nearly two thousand troops of House Strong and the one thousand troops of the two brigades of Lucernians they were able to overwhelm the defenders that were in the area, and take control of the Hanged Man. The Hanged Man was built onto a peak located there, and was a heavily defendable area, and with enough men garrisoning it would be nigh untakeable. The White Emproium fell that same day despite reinforcements coming in from the main holdings, and retreating forces bolstering the defenders. With the capture of the White Emporium some six hundred of the Seaworth forces were captured alongside almost four hundred Ironborn of whom died heavily as they were not often to surrender.

Campaign of Death[]

Harliquin Large
We all have vengeance in our hearts. It is without a doubt the most human of our emotions. To hate. To want people to pay for crimes we have judged worthy of pain. I am hurt, and therefor you must hurt as well.
Renly Strong

With the capture of the eastern block of Harrenhall the Ironborn were flooded into the area to try and retake the east from the outnumbered Strong forces. While this was happening Harlequin, and Helaquin moved into the northern section of Harrenhall near Grightwood Keep, where Aeron Greyjoy II. and his family were staying as he commanded the attack on Helldor Castle. Harlaquin and Helaquin would infiltrate the keep alongside all thirty of their whelpings and killed their way through the gaurds and servents in order to reach the sleeping quarters of Aeron Greyjoy II. Aeron would wake to the sound of fighting outside of his door, and the moment he opened the door sword in hand a dagger went into his head killing him. His wife and young son hid in a closet, but were quickly discovered and brought out and killed beside Aeron. With the murders completed Harlaquin, Helaquin and the whelpings would attach wolf pelts to the three bodies then hung them off the highest tower of Grightwood keep as a warning to the other Greyjoy's about what they had done to the Starke's.

They left a trail of destruction behind them, and knowing the Lucernian assassins and their reputation it was clear this was not an accident. They could have killed the three without alerting anyone, and yet they wanted us to know that gaurds didn't mean a thing to them. They were coming for us...
Dagon Greyjoy II.

The deaths of Aeron and his family would greatly shock the leadership of the Greyjoy's in the city, and despite Dagon assuring them that gaurds wouldn't matter the number of gaurds on each Greyjoy were greatly increased. With this in mind Dagon attempted to send away Aeron's sister before she too met a grisly fate, but the boat she was to leave on was sunk, and the captain that was meant to take the ship out was found decapitated with a wolf's pelt nailed to his chest. Dagon who had been planning to send away his own wife and child was now forced to accept they would have to deal with the assassins another way, and begin to plan for this. While this was happening Ser Gunthor continued to attack the Market and was able to push into the Opera House and after hours of brutal melee the Opera House finally fell to the forces of Ser Gunthor of which forced the abandoning of the defences around the Opera House as they were now able to be targeted by the attackers from the Opera House Windows. With victory growing at the marketplace Dagon made the next move when he begin marshalling as many forces as possible and with this Dagon would lead some three thousand troops against Helldor Castle in a battle that would become known as the Second Battle of Helldor Castle.
