- ARCHIVE - Royal Court of Denmark

[Longinus]

Swen Aegirson enters the royal chamber, he bows before the king and starts to speak.

"Your Majesty,

I bring most grave news from the Empire. Your old enemies, Austrians once again lift they mouths to bark on your friends nad Emperor. In this time of war drums Joachim of the Greif was forced to postpone planned marriage in his family and many others enterprises.

However, I recieved a message that WHU's delegation is ready to depart in order to sign a three side agreement between Hansa, Danemark and WHU."

He pauses for a moment.

"As to more pleasant matters. Your cousin, Joachim, wish you best in your oncomming marriage with Scottisch lady and would like to know when do you plan your marriage to happen. He also sends you best wishes of good health and fortune along with gift of beautiful Greif banner made of silk and silver threads. May it decorate your court halls well."

 

[Longinus]

A letter with the Greifs' seal arrives in the ducal palace.

"My good and noble Cousin,

It is a great honour and plesure to write to you with such joyous news. At times of disorder, wars and crusades one needs at least a bit sanity and peace. Therefore I treasure this opportunity to write you on a joyus occassion.

My sister Maria-Elise will, on the 24th of June, in the year of Our Lord 1427 (occ:Friday/Saturday), be wed to Johann III of Bremen in the cathedral of Stettin.
It would be a great honour to me, if you and as much as you family as you desire would be there as my personal guests, both to celebrate the Grief House and to cement the good relationship we share as close neighbours.
