>>5826174>>5826340You are optimistic, I do not know about it, she is still young. But yes, after several years she could be a good mother superior.
>>5826386Of course, we restore right and proper feudal customs.
And you are right, nothing should make a knight afraid.
>>5826479>>5826751>>5826983After much thinking you decided to give Father François the authorization to set up a tax on the revenues of all the peasantry, the church had expenses after all : feeding and healing the poor, repairing it's lands, and many other decisions that needed to be done. This seemed to overjoy the priest who thanked you a lot. When you said in plus that your would be assassin would be allowed to go to church he was very grateful.
-Thank you messire, thank you, I shall pray for you, many many times. Your generosity is worthy of your ancestors. Your reign is truly blessed !
You smiled to him while you saw your lady descending the steps of your place. She was sweet and beautiful in a simple grey dress. She was, even in a simple garb, radious and full of elegance. She had naturally the manners of a noblewoman and you could say that none of her gestures was inelegant. Her dress was simple, but modest and valorised her thin waist and her hips while she walked towards you. You complimented her on it while she took your arm.
-You look radious, as always my lady.
-Thank you lord Charles, you are too kind.
You then, after she saluted the priest, decided to go down in the great hall were you had to dine in the joyful company of your brave men. Once down you saw that Godefroi, Bohémond and Brother Louis were there, each one of them was eager to salute you and your lady. Captain Crumbling came after that. Everyone of them was dressed for the occasion and after your orders and a short prayer lead by father François, they all began to eat a delicious stew while many of them began to converse. Godefroi raised his cup at this moment, telling you.
-I drink to you monseigneur and Lady Takable ! We rejoice at the fact that you retrieved each other ! I hope that now you will not be separated by absurd considerations and that you will manage to get married before this summer ! Hooray !
The men raised their cups at this and Rose reddened while you joyfully drank to all of this, then Bohémond spoke, he had his brash and glorious tone.
-And I swear that I shall bathe my sword in the blood of those who still hold your handmaiden captive, lady Rose ! We shall march upon them, break them or free your friend ! Hooray !
