And here is where my old clickies meet the new arrivals, quite ironic though that they are welcomed into their new home by these new arrivals.
The Fleur du Lis king shakes hands with the tower nobleman while the crowd cheers for the band of kinsmen that has survived this long in this dangerous land without any castle for protection.
There is trouble right away however, decisions need to be made about how this alliance is going to work.
The three friends Henry, Roderick and Frederick do their best to help their leaders reach a sensible agreement as ego's clash.
After several hours they are in agreement however.
The fleur du Lis will rule the castle since they are the only faction with a line of kings. This gives more leverage in diplomacy, which they will handle for all three.
The tower faction will be in charge of security, since they have the most soldiers.
And the Swan Knights are in charge when the fight is taken to the enemy, their brash and daring approach can intimidate the enemy.
And with that agreement signed by all three leaders, all of the castle's nobility gathers to listen to the poem written by the tower herald, who wrote a poem for this occasion that celibrates the strenghts of each faction.
While more poetry is recited, Frederick mentions to Roderick and Henry that he saw some good wine inside the castle.. so together they sneaked off to help themselves to an old bottle of wine, and they raise their glasses in celibration for this wonderfull new home.
