A short fat balding man walks into the court of the Grand Princess bows, and then speaks:
"Greetings Grand Princess I am Gregor von Hadenburg sent by his excellency Duke Wilhelm Albrecht von Wittelsbach of Bavaria. He sends his many thanks for the kind words and gifts that you have sent to his court. It is a wonderful time in the land of Bavaria as the Duke and Duchess have just been blessed with twin heirs. Gretchen Dagmar, and Heinrich Albrecht von Wittelsbach were born upon this earth on April 15. Also the Duke's only sister Lady Annelise is engaged to marry the Holy Roman Emperor. Truly great times in Bavaria. Never before has a nation this far north sent an ambassador to our nation, and we welcome your ambassador. This shall be a new start of friendship with your nation. My Duke has heard of your great beauty and perhaps one day can help you in the finding of a mate. He also sends an invitation for you to come to Bavaria and visit his great land when you are able. In honor of you there will be a day of celebration in Munchen, and i have been sent with 10 of the finest vats of Bavarian brew made from the Bavarian National Brewery the Haufsbrau House. Also i bring a dress made from the down of 50 swans, and encrusted in sapphires. The national animal of Bavaria, and the royal blue of the house of Wittelsbach. My Duke looks forward to a correspondance with you and i await your apporval before i find a lodge here in your fine city."
With that Gregor bows again and awaits the Grand Princess' response.

The Princess looks happy and she smiles upon the ambassador. She then begins to speak in a most relaxed tone:
Greetings kind sir to my court you are most welcome to stay. Walk around enjoy the sites while you are here. You have my permission to travel freely through the Kremlin if you desire to do so. I am amazed at the great gifts, and humbly thank his grace in Bavaria for them. I also send word of happiness and congrats to his grace in Munich for the birth. I am most pleased that diplomacy can be conducted between our two nations. I have no plans on marriage or love yet, but I am always open, and when I have time, I shall visit the Duke in Bavaria happily. It is truly special that a bond has begun to develop between our two kingdoms, and I shall look forward with glee of further diplomatic ties with the Duchy of Bavaria.
I would also like to inform you if I may, that when or if you desire to see the sites, you may be stopped by several guards, don't be worried though. They are searching for a murderer of grave importance, for our friends in Lithuania.
With that said I hope you will enjoy your stay here, and you are most welcomed in Moskva!Thank you.

Von Nathusius turns toward Stoiber.
Unless I am mistaken, Lothat, this issue was already brought up in the Imperial Diet once - I recieved a letter from our diplomat there just a few days ago after Cologne approved Austria's admission. It is the Archduke of Austria, not the Emperor, who is joining the Liga - the Archbishop in Cologne apparently required this to be the case as he shares the oppinion of your Duke. The Archduke's position as Emperor has no power in the Liga outside the powers granted to him in the constitution.

The Count of Kyritz leans back in his chair.
"Brandenburg endorses both Austria and Hesse. As a member of the Liga, Albert von Hapsburg is the Archduke of Austria. As our purpose is support of the Emperor and the Empire, I see no conflict here.
"Hesse clearly shares our interests and concerns, and stands to gain much from the unity which the Liga represents."

Lothar looks uneasy, and replies to von Nathusius while apperently picking his words with great care.
"I don't know, but I must admit I do not understand Johann II's opinion on this matter. I am unable to defende it, please send any questions to hm.
However, I have been informed that Bremen will be glad to have Hessen enter the Liga, as Hessen have much in common with the rest of the members. And that Bremen will obey the will of this council, even if Johann II personally disagree."

HJ looked at the castle, there! THe gate opened and there was Urseolo!
He was guareded by 10 soldiers. HJ tought it over one more time, Urseolo would be death, if he did it or not, the Duchess of Luxemburg would finish him off, but HJ wanted to do it himself. Urseolo had killed his twinbrother and 1000 Gelren soldiers, togheter with hunderts and thousands of others. And the war would contineu after this. The Hussits had been given time and the Empire had to fight theme to now. It will be a dirty war, just like this one."So much death, and al because of him" HJ jumped out the bushes, the soldiers didn't look suprised and they ran away. HJ threw a sword to Urseolo. "Defend yourself" HJ screamed. And he waited for response.

Josef, if we actually get to merge the French vassals to France, can I get Burgundy?
Wait, wait" screamed the man" I'm not Urseolo!"
"You'r not? but this carridge is going trough Bosnia and Dalmatia.
No, no, I'm a thiev, they are going to imprison me in the vlliage."
"What, goddammit" And HJ ran to his horse to find Urseolo.
There! Another carridge, could this be the one. "Don't hurt us"
screamed the guards "Is Urseolo here?" asked HJ
"Yes" answered one of the guards," and he's all for you"
"Thank's, and don't forget to hurt yourself a little bit, the pope might suspect you."
"We will." and the guards ran away.
HJ looked in the carridge, and there was Urseolo.
"Don't kill me, please.
Kill you?" said HJ with hate inhis voice.
"When i'm ready with you, you will wish that i had killed you."
HJ jumed on carridge and rode to the mountains.

The Bishop shrugs his shoulders.
Orders are orders. I'll inform the Archbishop to send a letter if he cares that much about the issue, but I think that the Duke will understand after the first few meetings with Austria as a member - the voting does seem to be going in their favor.

An ambassador from Novgorod
We feel insulted by Moskov's hostile atatude. We will not tolerate such bahavior any further. Novgorod will not have any diplomatic relations with Moscow until the Grand Princess publicly appologises before the Veche.

EVENT
The emotional and heated chase after King Urseolo by HJ Duke of Amsterdam only serves to fog HJ's vission. Sources had given him a lead but not the full informatin. He had not stopped to consider his actions, sources, or the repocutions. Dammit...... the wrong coach again.
1. By shear luck King Urseolo is found. (1-3 Transilvanian gaurds fight and arrest HJ. 4-6 They run and desert the King.)
2. The lead is correct but so many carriages to check make it a last minute chase where the king reaches the safety of a Transilanian city and it's militia. (King found but protected by local lord)
3. A glut of carriages full of Refugees make the task impossible.
4. False carriages have been set up. Many similar traveling the obvious routes.Explaining the false Kings that keep cropping up.
5. HJ is arrested as a highwayman by a local Transalvanian militia patrol. (No proof of ID found wait until local lord hears you case)
6. HJ gets lost in the forests for a month.
A 2 is rolled.
