Retaliation

[Nick Foghorn Leghorn]

Fellow nobles,

I propose an all-out attack on Shirekeep. Should be fun, and we can go "sightseeing" as well!

Shall I ready the troops?

[hypatias mom]

Sounds like fun. Have you received any additional support from the other nobles? You may count me in.

[Jonas]

You have the blessing of the Duke of Kildare. Count me in!

[benkern]

The Barony of Vorpmadal is deeply opposed to all-out attacks!

Regardless I have reconsidered! Attack!

[andelarion]

You have my support! For Elwynn, for honour and for justice, we shall march into Shirekeep!

I expect Harald to support it as well!

[Nick Foghorn Leghorn]

Question: Where exactly would we post for such an occurrence? I've forgotten which Duchy has Shirekeep...

[andelarion]

That would be Brookshire. Unless we make a coup in the Landsraad, stripping Brookshire of the capital :P

[Nick Foghorn Leghorn]

To Brookshire!

[Kaiser Mors V]

Mont Crisco is with you!

[hypatias mom]

Oh, really!?

[Kaiser Mors V]

Yeah.. why not.. let's go kick some Imperial ass!

Jigga what?

[hypatias mom]

Unless I was very much mistaken, it sounded like our Kaiser (aka Duke of Brookshire, aka Baron of Dolor aka Count of Monte Crisco), was planning to invade his County and attack the Count of Monte Crisco. Do you have a better description of the planned invasion?

[benkern]

That's what I got from that post, too...

[Kaiser Mors V]

I thought we were invading Shirekeep....

[Nick Foghorn Leghorn]

Yes, but more importantly, invading YOU...

[Braden Indianensis]

*Cleans and loads revolver, and tucks it in waistcoat pocket*

[Kaiser Mors V]

But which me?

There are 3 me's...

[hypatias mom]

Sounds like a case for the men in the white coats. *puts out a call for a strait-jacket and several nice young men in clean white coats to collect this poor victim of multiple personality disorder.*

[Kaiser Mors V]

Kaiser Me
Duke Me
Baron Me
Count Me...

So 4 actually...

[hypatias mom]

To rephrase Lincoln, "A mind divided against itself cannot stand."

[Ari Rahikkala]

The Duchy of Straylight will not stand for this unlawful rebellion!

Uh... unfortunately we have no army to speak of, and apparently everyone's invasion forces are already over, so... er...

* sends gunboats to take potshots at the Kildari coast *

[Kaiser Mors V]

I thought he was quoting the bible when he said "a house divided, cannot stand."....

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

Yes, but more importantly, invading YOU...

Interesting connotations there.

[Jacobus Loki]

I'm taking a sightseeing/gambling junket in the recycled dirigibles I inherited from Jaris.

We will fly out of the range of most weapons, observing the invasion from a safe distance, while gambling on the outcome of the various contests.

We will accept and treat wounded and winded, but some may gamble on the condition and survival of the patients.

I'm against that , of course, unless I get very good odds.

[hypatias mom]

Actually, the quote did talk about a house divided. However, with the Kaiser attempting to wage war in one personna against another of his personnas, I chose to rewrite Lincoln.

[Kaiser Mors V]

You act like it's unusual for me to pit one of my personalities against another.. or to fight on both sides of a way...(See Colour Rebellion)

[hypatias mom]

I'm afraid I wasn't here for that. I missed most of the first flowering of Shireroth, and then in 2005 and 2006 I spent almost a year in hospitals and facilities and missed whatever happened during that period. Reading histories is good, but it is no substitute for being part of things when they happen.
