Horacio the Wrathful fell to one of the diseases while sieging York,these diseases are brought on by this damp, cursed land of England! he died in a terrible coughing fit, with blood leaping from his mouth...the mercenaries he hired,however proved their worth when they stormed York without their leader. we were excommunicated for our pains, and with the treasury laid bare by recent warfare, once more an Aragonese Princess is sent to 'bargain' with the Pope. Juana the Affectionate does the job nicely, she is know as a 'hard bargainer'.



rumors fly, and the Pope's reputation is damaged...but we are no longer excommunicate, and now we can tax our people fully!
