Brothers, I would hope that such circumvention of the Orders rules is acceptable. I am happy to be accepted into the Brotherhood as an equal as much as is possible for a man of my blood.

There may be times when my family duties call me to remove myself from the side of my Order brothers but I trust these will be few in number. We all heed the call of our King, my father, an it may be at times when he has need of me that I will depart.

I march East and currently camp in the great forest on the road from Staffen to Frankfurt, I hope to be in your company in the next season should the Kings army not move.

There are move private matters I will discuss with the Order before my arrival and I will do so in the privacy of our meeting rooms….

(OOC: an IC and OOC posting on the Social Group board which I feel is quite important)
