[QUOTE="CPaladin, post: 8247308, member: 7030144"] In just under the wire to be the regularly scheduled Wednesday update. :D Session 38 [cont'd] Alistair calls for the Minister of War. "We need plans for a full-scale invasion of Eastern Trade Federation" I am fairly certain that we can bring enough force to bear, now that our internal difficulties are taken care of, to, since they do not genuinely keep any standing armies that are of any significant value, we should be able to take the actions that may become necessary with fair ease. The standing armies of the Eastern Trade Federation are not very good. Kit: What about transport and supply? The logistics. That’s what I’ll be working on. I sincerely hope that we will have no need of these plans, but we should be ready. Mtg with Mark: We meet with him for lunch He arrives promptly, dressed in close to his best, possibly his best. He’s not wearing a cornet or anything similar; his clothes aren’t pretentious, and while by no stretch inappropriate, perhaps more appropriate to a different type of status. More like a very successful merchant than like a ruling noble. “I am ready to serve the Archduchy in any way that it needs me to.” “What have you been occupying yourself with lately?” “Well… taking care of a bit of my family’s business here with the difficulties…” He is vague, but accurate about what he is doing and should be doing. “Lord Mark. What would you say that the state of things is in Furrows?” “Not that good, your grace. Things have been difficult lately. The patriarch of my line is aging. There have been some difficulties and disloyalties here or there. Well, here and there. But I assure you, I am no traitor.” “I don’t think you are. But I’m not certain that you can be a successful duke. He agrees to abdicate Mtg. with Lady Susan Totally painless We also agree to meet with Lady Violet to evaluate her for a position in the court; possibly privy secretary? Also Kit contacts the ambassador from the Fey to raise the issue of the changeling Your grace—we’ve been given some land in Debonai. [This is the wrap-up of the minor storyline described in Session 37's post.] [End Session 38] [/QUOTE]
