a letter from the Duke of Milan

Estimadíssima Duchesa Giovanna,

Certainly is a good notice the hearing of Your safety and settlement in the northern lands of Normandie. During the days that lasted the coup-d'etat in the Kingdom of Naples, I certainly feared the worst, and worried about your health and life.

But know, much more reliefed, i wish You luck and i certainly hope that we might continue our diplomatic relationships as well as they were.

Sending his Regards
-signed- Filippo Visconti, Duke of Milan.

A letter arrives in Normandie.

Greetings "Queen" Giovanna, brother of the heretic of Jerusalem.
Supporter of Rebells, betrayer of nations on crusade etc etc etc.

Your appointment as regent of Normandie is an outrage, and your "guarantees" aint worth anything at all.

As time and time again you break promises, those made in public and those behind closed curtains.

The only nations whom have even the smallest support for you is England, his allies and Milan.
The rest know what an kind of person you are.

We, the King of France, speaks a lot, say what is on our minds. But we would not dream of taking much of what we say into actions.
While you are the opposite, out from thin air actions appear that is more or less evil.

Actions speak louder then words, perhaps you are not aware of that.

Signed
Charles VII

Duchess of Apulia, Bari, Brindisi, Foggia, Lecce, and Taranto. Princess of Serbia. Rightful Countess of Provence, Nice, Marseilles, Toulon, Arles.


I gladly accept Henri Dupontle as ambassador in my realm. And I pray that the relations between Normandie and Aquainte shall prosper in the future. The man presenting this letter is Guillbert Froum, knight of the order of the Green Heart. I hope you will accept him as my ambassador to you.

I shall hope to meet you in England.

At your command

"Self-appointed Queen of Normandie,

I'll be brief. God has given the right to the King of France to rule over the provinces of Normandie. You have decided otherwise. Why don't you give yourself the title of Empress of Rome while you're at it? Surely you want to be more powerful than God. Why don't you show everyone your power?

Marie de Berry, duchesse D'Auvergne."

"Self-appointed Queen of Normandie,

The treaty of Arras was written between a power hungry England and an ill King of France. Do you think God would have accepted that the kingdom of the French be given away to the Kingdom of the English. I think not. But then again, you, the Queen of Napoli, are now at the head of Normandie. So it is obvious that God's given rights is something of a problem in England.

What's next? The Queen of Napoli at the head of the kingdom of Aragon? But then, you still appoint yourself as a Queen, and sovereign of the Normans. But like the Normans say: "La folie du Roy entraisne la folie des peuples". I'm sure you know what that means, since it's in Norman...

Perhaps you are so much more intelligent than me that I'm simply blinded by your ability to surpass God.

Marie de Berry, duchesse D'Auvergne."

A letter from Bosnia is carried by an exausted messanger. He hangs the letter to the Queen, then bows and leaves. The letter has the Kotromanic seal on it. The Queen opens the letter, a little bit anxious of what's in it. She reads it, and smile. It is said:

To the Queen of Normandie and rightful ruler of Naples, Queen Giovanna. By the own hand of King of Bosnia, Stjepan Kotromanic.

My dear friend

I was shocked by the events that occured in Naples a few months ago. Your brother deserves to burn in hell for what he has done to your magnificient Kingdom. Know that even if my choice of weeding is now done ( I have chosen Maria von Hohenzollern, from Prussia ), know that you are a true friend of Bosnia, and that we will fight on your side, if war it is... But we hope for peace, and hope our positions will be favourable.

Most favourable wishes
Your friend
King Stjepan Kotromanic

A messenger arrives to Normandie, he hands over a message bearing the markings of Naples

"Dearest Sister

I have heard of your newly formed state, and i must say that i will not surrender Naples under any circumstances. I believe you could have done much more to keep Charles alive. Alas, he is now dead and nothing will bring him back. He was a great leader and i know that you were aware of that. Branded as a heretic by the Papal authority his kingdom was utterly destroyed by the crusaders. I will not tolerate any threats made upon the Kingdom of Naples and i will see to it that things are done a different way now, upholding a new a greater Naples.

King Erick I Angevin of the Two Sicilies

A Message comes in from the King of Eire, a rather tall woman also.

She hands you the letter:

"Dear Norman Queen,

How are you on this wonderful day? My dear friend, King John, informed me that you arnt well respected out of the union. But I respect you and your kingdom, it is sad that your evil brother expelled you from Naples... But you are always invited to stay with your husband at our castle in Ulster!"

The lady that brought the letter says in a disturbingly deep voice, "I am Neil Forrester, your diplomat"

Oh its a man...

Duchess of Normandie, (I adress you as such, since you lowered my rank to countess in your last letter),

You wrote: "I suggest that you watch your words, lest it bring on even more...conflict." I COULD be affraid of what you said, has it not been of the rest of the letter. But, like a good comedy, you wrote yet something even more funny this time, and your menace comes as the apogee of comical relief.

Let it be known to the rest of the world, that you should NOT watch your words, for it brings laughter and euphoria in people's mind and hearth.

Next time, for a more dramatic effect, instead of claiming Naples AND Normandie, I would suggest you to claim France, England, Aragon, Castille y Leon and most of the Papal States. Also, the Mediterranean is yours as well as Sweden. And Poland. etc.

Make all the claims you want, no one respects you anymore.

Hope the French lessons are going well,
Marie de Berry, duchesse d'Auvergne.
