1.
adriankowaty said:
The Young Earl takes a while on the court asking if there is family willing to marry daughter with him.
He explains that he has problems with expressing his statements because of speaking problem.
He only wants to find someone who is willing apart to have children with and, perhaps, find an ally in king's court.
He fears that war would harm English lands and thinks that introducing permament taxes in both private and royal estates would allow nobility of England to mantain selfdefence required to keep invaders in line.
He explains that being too much warlike would only introduce hostilities between Englishmen and other societies which would be countereffective in terms of keeping British Isles stable.
He prefers to trade and find common world with other societies instead.

Turn 5​

MOVEMENT​
Free Movement
Earl Aethelwold (DragonOfAtlantis) : Kent > Essex > Suffolk​

Rushed Movement
King Æthelheard : Kent > Winchester
Regent Alfred (BlackCrown**) : Kent > Isle of Ely > Lothian
Earl Artair (Sneakyflaps) : Kent > Winchester​


COMPLETED ORDERS​
Earl Adrian (adriankowaty) swears fealty to Duke Aldrich.

Created Sæthryd (adriankowaty) [+++/-/++/-/+]
Sæthryd is the third daughter of a minor London noble. She joined Æthelheard's entourage at a young age, when he was still seen primarily in the light of his rebellious father. After he suddenly became heir to the throne she remained on staff at the insistence of Æthelheard himself: Her patience and kindness had endeared her to the king-to-be, and her genuine lack of ambition made her acceptable to Earl Leofræd, who was increasingly taking control of Æthelheard's life.

Shortly after Æthelheard's coronation, she was presented to Earl Adrian as a potential wife at Leofræd's suggestion. While she was hesitant to leave the king's side, just as he was hesitant to surrender such a loyal servant, she quickly grew fond of of the young Earl and eventually both she and the king would concede that it was meant to be.

Alfric of Suffolk (DragonOfAtlantis) holds court. Unfortunately, a matter involving merchant's rights quickly overwhelms him, and nothing of note is accomplished.
Wulfric of Warwick (Janha) holds court. The death of a local noble ends up consuming most of the court's attention though, so nothing is accomplished.

Oh um, if you will still allow me to submit orders, Regent Alfred will attempt to rally the Nobles of Lothian to contribute to the county’s defense.


Edit: (Realized I have no free members, feel free to ignore this and apologies)

For me, the movenement will be continued, with the route designed by GM.
Also, when both Adrian and Saethryd (sorry if misspelled) finally come to Berwick, there'll be many other things to do.
