The Four Lands - The Colony

The morning before the gathering, Ederin watches the dawn, letting his anger dissipate. After realizing that the nobles were going to order the execution of the present non-nobles, he is mad at their arrogance, and stupidity. Although not really prepared, did they really think that he and his companions were powerless? Considering that some of his companions were going to be really humble and apologizing, it was needed to remind the nobles why they were selected for such a dangerous missions...and to remain them that they were hardly at their mercy.

The spells that he prepares this morning include fire seeds (twice), energy resistance, antilife shell, wall of thorns, freedom of movement, dispel magic (thrice), warp wood, barksin, mass eagle's splendor, spell resistance.

Just before the gathering, he casts all his defensive spells, so that anyone willing to detect magic would feel an exceptionally strong aura coming from him. He casts resist energy: fire, and then casts twice fire seeds for 16 holly berry bombs, which he keeps in a sleeve.

He also casts divination, asking "Which is the best way to subtly intimidate the nobles, without offending them?".



ooc: I am not going in war, but I want to be prepared if someone tries anything.

The party meets with the same individuals as before but as most of the times before the principals remain silent and the spokesman apparently speaks for all.

"Then it is agreed then?...the terms shall be as before with the exception that the taxes shall be reduced to 15 percent starting in the 5th year? Documents are then produced to show the terms and conditions of before with the exception that no mention is made of restoring the nobel titles to those who had the monies refunded"
 

The problems with their employers largely resolved for the moment, Alvar is eager to continue preparation for the trip. "What else must we accomplish before we set sail?"

[sblock=for JA only]
So where does this leave Alton? Is his name still on the documents, his place on the council, etc., just no noble title with lands?
[/sblock]

OOC: Does Viscount Archer's name show up in the documents?

OOC2: It took three tries to get this to post. The "new post" kept timing out.

For Alton
[sblock]No mention of your name as being on the govering council is made...the council list those nobles who hold seats as well as the spots for elective representatives.[/sblock]


Yes viscount Archer appear to have taken Hennets place as well as the name of two other nobles on the govering council.
 

Alton Kanri

When Alton sees that his name no longer appears on any of the documents, he will remain silent from that point on and simply observe the proceedings.

When the meeting ends, Alton will find a time to gather the others for a planning session on how best to proceed. Without titles and positions, Alton and Randal will have freedom to take actions that the rest will not. Titles provide protection, but they also put you out there.

OOC: Let's finish the meeting with the 5 before we move on to our planning session.
 

Randal Lucius Stormweaver

Being very dissapointed that he was not reinstituted as noble, Randal is quiet during the meeting.

Bleh, whole life spent on trying to be someone and now, instead of keeping my mouth shut before everything passes I had to make a fuss! But still, it will unburden me and enable me to make my own decisions. And I can still be noble of the colony later. Oh, no! Alton is taken off the list too. Where will I make The Academy now? Whoaa, this needs whole new plan of action. When will this end...

OOC: I put it as Randal's thoughts, but everyone is free to read it :)
 

OOC: For those of you lamenting your loss of noble status, keep in mind some of us purchased a couple of extra titles. We should be able to hook you up later on.
 

Ederin looks calmly at the nobles and says, with a serene voice. "I would like you to consider my proposal on the way in which those requirements can be better implemented. Perhaps viscount Archer didn't have the time to explain them. I would be glad to do it again".

ooc: sorry for the delay, I just transferred in Maastricht.
