The War of the Hearth Right
« Topic Start: May 24, 2012, 11:46:29 AM »
Since there seems to be a lot of interesting rp going on in this realm, I thought I'd make a thread for discussing it. If someone would like to write a summary of what happened recently at the King's palace, that would be great.

My character, Sir Henzo, seems to have made an impression, negative and positive, depending on whose pov we are looking from.

Sorraine is basically the most baller realm in the game.

I agree. The recent events have been very interesting. Not sure what to do with Giskard though, since he lost the duel his shame is eternal and his egoistical and fanatical personality can hardly live with that.

Henzo is definitely up for duels.

That is after I cremate Giskard's now dead body from his suicide at the palace, and after I scold Selene for her obvious disrespect and banish Henzo for his treason.

Booo! Don't banish the poor guy. He stopped you from either getting killed, or flaunting the will of Sartan.

The Far East map doesn't work properly for me (no realms), but I have a general idea where it might be. My crazy (half-crazy?) character might wander up there sometime. He's already traveled the map once. But he's only an advy still :/

Try the Political Map.  It's the old dynamic map.  Better until they get the bugs worked out of the new system, IMO.

Regardless, he stood for someone who called his King a blasphemer.... in a Holy Kingdom...

That immediately makes him guilty by association, unfortunately.

He didn't stand to defend them, he stood to stop the King from doing something wrong. Although I doubt Caspius is in any kind of condition to recognize the distinction.

This. If you guys read my second to last rp, I told Lady Maria this very thing... unfortunately, it was supposed to be posted before the suicide, but I didn't finish it till afterwards.

I would have to disagree. You stop someone from doing something wrong by telling them (verbal communication), with minimal physical interference (like Mathilda did.) Henzo, however, drew his blade and pointed it right at his own King, informing him he'd have to go through him first. His reason was inadequate, for if we look on the holy scale, I would think Caspius far outweighs Maria. That is defense, plain and simple :P. I see it as such both OOCly and ICly.

If Henzo isn't banished, he'll be punished one way or another.
