    I, Thomas de Saint Amand, swear fealty to Bertin de Montsault.

    I accept your oath, Baron Thomas.
    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
    but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
    chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

    A servant arrives with glasses of wine.

    Drinks all around then!

    He raises his glass to Bertin and then Thomas.

    To the Comte de Metz and Baron of Franconia.

    Thomas, I wish you luck at Magdeburg, but be careful.

    Bertin, you have served as my second faithfully, and I have not forgotten this. If the Moorish Crusade is called and no threats surface to Lorraine, I'd would be honored if you led our army on the Crusade.

    I will proceed to Antwerp without my current forces, perhaps only the mounted sergeants, and rally what men we have in the area to repulse the Germans.

    Thoughts? (OOC: woad&fangs, you still out there?)

    Bertin is sitting, looking around nervously, and clutching a large goblet of wine when he hears Duc Hugues speak.

    Mon Duc, I would be honored to represent the Duchy on the Moorish crusade!

    In his excitement, Bertin clumsily dumps his wine all over himself.

    Hugues nods.

    Good, I'll proceed to Antwerp, I'll leave the army with you, though I'll take the mounted sergeants. I'd suggest staying in the current area until the Crusade is called. The Germans might rally again, your help might be needed at Bern, Nuremburg or Hamburg.

    I'm too old to go traipsing across the countryside running down Mohammedans. Also. . .I'm not sure if I'd be welcome in Aquitaine.

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.
