Duchy of Austria

Arnold

Lord Zirn, before Edmund Becker arrives here I'd like to take a moment to grieve the loss of my own Mother and now the sudden departure of Sir Sigismund von Mahren.

This house has now taken a mortal blow to its existence and we are hanging on by just a few wisps of hope.

You're family is increasingly likely to be our only hope of maintaining the legacy of this House. Until I am married and able to continue the lineage to Kaiser Heinrich's family, my sister and your children are the only hope we have left.

I've spoke to the Chancellor on the next steps due to Sigismunds death. I expect word from him soon.

I will proceed to take command of the AHA and Herr Becker will need to join me so I may see if he is worthy of Knighting.

My only request at this time is that you send your first born son back to Austria as soon as he comes of age.
