Eustace sits, at a table in, his quaters in the English Court. In his hand he olds a quill which scratches away at the parchment below. His face is lit by a single candle on the table he sat at as he composed another letter to the Emporer.

Your Majesty,
This will be the 27th report I have sent you in the last eight months and as always your highness I hope you find it useful as you know I serve your will in the Kingdom of England and have done so for ten years now. I wish to thank you once more giving me this post at the age of 30. I have served you faithfully for many years now and non of my former master's have been as gracious and generous as you have been to me. I have served the Duke of Savoy, who rules over my birth land, and Charles de Bourbon. And even before that I served the diocese of Geneva but I have to say my lord non compare to your great wisdom and power.

However I have something to ask of you. My home land of Savoy lies within the grasp of the French Heretic himself the french King is putting everything holy in danger and I ask that my family be allowed to travel to Spain under the protection of your most gracious power. At the age of eighteen I entered the University and I did not leave for eight years I studied law, as you know your majesty, and entered various diplomatic services across the continent of Europe, In recived my Doctorate which makes me perfect for the position at King Henry's court.

I was never poor but my family were not rich either I would never of hoped to have this much success when I lived in our home in Savoy and I will be enternally thankful and loyal to your majesty for this reason. My loyalty is also extended to any one in your royal house and especially Catherine who has become almost like a neice to me. She has developed into a wonderful woman who can hold her own with any man in a debate about politcs or the in's and out's of the Church, if she had been a man she would of made an incredible leader. She is still very popoular with the people of England who would of loved her to off been her King, it is my greatest hope that I can still make their wish come true.

As I am sure you are aware the Holy Father is in England to bestowe upon Hnery the title Fidei defensor. I hope to use this oppurtunity to futher the alliance between the Hasburg dynasty and the Papal States and England against Venice and Spain. We must rid European shores of the French King and the Venitian Doge. I think your majesty that you should offer the crown of France to Henry after all England and France have long been at each other's throat and you could easly use this against the young King. He also want's to prove himself to his people and the princes of Christendome, give him a way to do this.

I have spent much time with Catherine latley and I think you should inquire about a marriage for her, if it become impossible that she will marry the King, I think she wishes to remain in England so maybe a Duke of the English court. Falling that I think the Medici, and other Ittalian Familes would be a strong choice. It would bring the trade of the Ittalian states into Spanish hands and if she married into a northern ittalian family it could act as a foothold to challenge Venice and French dominance in Italy.

  • - - - - Roleplay Sample,
    Sherry de Winter sounded like a french name to the ancient teacher if so then she probally had family in Francia, the land formerly known as Gaul. He missed Gaul but he no longer considered it his home, he considered no where he home any more. It had changed to much since the Roman conquest the Old Religion was gone and people worshiped one God, or three he sometimes got confused with how or what Christians worshipped. There was no room for a teacher in Gaul anymore and it made him upset to think of somewhere so dear to him that would hate to have him with in her borders. He snapped his mind back into the real world

    He was not sure how long he had left to walk but he liked the night he had always prefered the night to the day, it was just a fact and it had been that way since he was a Children living in his father's long house. He was almost nocturnal those day's but he had to get used to sleeping at night when he was taken under his master' s wing and began to travel across the world with him for years. However he decided having some light would be a good thing.

    He held out his hand and spoke words in a language older than any thing alive. Above the two druids appeared a ball of blusihsh fire that light up the surrounding area allowing them to see what they were about to walk into. As they walked the fire followed it as he had asked unlike many magicians Drest never commanded nature to do what he wanted, he asked it to help him he found it worked better.

    It did not take long for the two druids to reach the Clang and they may of gotten there even quicker if they had not been conversing during the sort distance. The Clang were busy with preperations for the upcoming festival due to start very soon. It had never been his favourite festival but one of his top three.

    "Your way of government is very interesting, it resembles the way a Teacher is chosen. When the time is right the Gods choose one of us. May I ask a question?" He waited only a second before he continued. "No female can become a Teacher, can a female become the leader of your clang?" He asked. He was not against woman becoming high ranking and he asked the question simply out of curiosty.

    He took the mug of ale and took a large sip, he had been walking for the better part of the day and had not had a single drink so the cool liquid came as a pleast relife. "Thank you Sherry." He said as he placed the mug on the floor beside his feet.

    He listened to what she was saying but he was still a magician must of caused some sort of pain to Uther. "I have only seen one birth, that of my great-great-great nephew and I know Woman are very strong to get through it. I offered to use my magic to dull her pain but the mid wife said it was unnatural and she must get through it alone, it harmed me to watch a ffamily member in pain."

    "It does not matter Uther must be stopped. I do not undertsnad why the Druids have not attacked yet?"
