On a realm-level, Aurvandil has no friends. The 'moot realms are divided on the subject.

Madina, on the other hand, has good and friendly relations with the Lurian realms, same as Fissoa. Alliance being negotiated, btw.

That is what I meant.

If you say so... a few do not like the thought of the Madinian Republic Scum :D

True, but that is at a individual noble's level. At government level we are all friendly with them.

Hello. Welcome to the Middle Ages.

There is no separation between those levels in this setting.

Thank you for your time.

Of course there is. Some nobles can blab all they want about "Madinian scum", while those in charge know better not to. The Lurias are not republican...

Guys, can someone give me a short discourse on what happened to PeL, and about the creation of Luria Nova.

Boy, am I surprised to learn from wiki that Amaury, the Queen's golden boy rebelled against her. Back then he was her staunchest ally...

Anaris

Yeah, but that's not news.

What's news is that she's back.

When you want to stab someone in the back, its much easier if you are close to them.

I do agree it applies in some situations, but he would have achieved it much earlier when half the realm, the judge and two dukes was already against the Queen. He was the remaining Duke who stood by her.

It speaks alot of then, Queen Alanna, she singlehandedly managed to turn every single duke she appointed against her at one point or another. But most of all, she managed to stay in power for so long.

That assumes his first or only goal was to dispose of Alanna. Common sense suggests that Amaury was running many many schemes and plots, for some of those he needed Alanna to remain Queen, when that was no longer the case he was in a position to remove her. Perhaps those that failed so many times to oust Alanna should ask themselves what was it about Amaury or the situation that allowed him to succeed.

Me!  It was me!  (waves for attention)

...Nah, in all seriousness, there were a lot of factors, it was a near thing, and it would have been nasty as hell if Alanna had actually fought it out.  I'd given the rebel side even odds, no better.  OOC, anyway.  IC Koli thought he had a much better chance, but Koli's often an idiot.

Are you sure Koli isn't related to the De-Legro family? Idiocy is certainly a family trait with them, it just manifests in different ways, not all are as obvious as Carlos :)

Nah, Koli's idiocy is of the grandiose kind, quite fitting for a Bedwyr.  See Damian, for instance.  Man thought he singlehandedly destroyed Abington, then went bat!@#$ crazy and seceded, founded his own religion, and began hallucinating that he was conquering the island.

So I take it that mundane dwarf tossing is below the standard of Bedwyr lunacy?
