A Response To The Conquest - Von Dem Marienritter Orden

[The_Hochmeister]

Several dozen parchments would be strewn across the Holy City, some pinned to walls and some rolling down the street. Upon it would be a stamped insignia of the Marienritter Orden.

To the good Regalians we call brothers and sisters,

It is of our utmost shock to see the Crimson Inquisition, who we regard as brothers-in-arms in maintaining the fine religion of Ailordom to call the first inquisitorial conquest on fellow holy men. We debunk the claims they postulate and the information they spread. We too, hail the Imperial Spirit and are devout Unionists. Marien is the namesake of our Order, and nothing more. the founder of our Order was Marien, and in our action we bring prestige to their name; carrying their zeal with us to further serve the spirit. We are Marienritter, Marien's Knights.

To show our true faith as Unionists, we hereby openly submit ourselves to the Imperial Church of the Holy Divine and serve them in penance.

The Marienritter hold legal permit to the equipment they carry. As listed by the good Ser William Arnyn, they may carry a variety of weaponry, up to half-plate armour, and full helm. No good holy man of our Order have ever broken this promise. It is terrible news our humble Order was assaulted within the Nook just yesterday prior. Whilst sitting and keeping to themself, the Marienritter were openly attacked by several notable Jacobin members, including Milo, as well as Fen'nan Solveira; who is with the Ser Karp Kippings; the one who called this very inquisitorial conquest!


It is not us who shame the Great Former Emperor, but the Crimson Inquisition. They have used the power bestowed upon them by their charter rights not to aid in the unity and continued prosperity of our faith and those who seek to work against it, but as a political tool for personal gain. May all good Men and Women know of this, now that they have displayed this.

Ave Marien, Ave Spiritus,
Hochmeister Wilheim of the Marienritter. Champion of Herebrand, First Defender of Marien.

A letter would be pinned directly under whichever Marienritter letter had found itself in the most busy location.

To the Marienritter Order,

Keep the personal relationships of the Commander out of your responses to inquests. Nobody needs to hear it.

Commander of the Storm Sentinels
Man-at-arms of Bloodcast

Zain Davenport sat still in his seat as he'd look upon the copy of the notice from his room in [CLASSIFIED]. He didn't know why they did what they did, but they had their reasons. He didn't care about the wounds, but their words did hurt him. He wanted to do what he could for himself and his family, but this isn't how he wanted it to be. He wanted to help those in need and keep a peace within the founding religion of Unionism. Now, he is unsure what to believe. He thought he could speak with the people peacefully, that there wouldn't be any harm besides some words. But the wounds went deeper than simply his face, it hurt his heart more than anything else in the world. He'd begin to kneel down, praying to the Spirit for guidance. His hopes remained high for a better tomorrow. They all live to fight on against the evils of the Void, but the people have been tearing themselves apart. Zain understood well that he made his own mistakes with his actions. But now, he must wait for either peace or war.

"I am Pagan and Even I can see your Order is in opposition to creeds and Law. Is it not Central Doctrine that The Imperial Authority of the Emperor is above personal interpretation in some cases, It is by his Imperial Will that certain persons be given rights. So to disregard that because of a personal vendetta or hatred is Tantamount to Disregarding the Emperor's Authority and putting hatred before your Legal and Religious Leader. Though I am no Priest or Bishop of the spirit and as such my word may mean little, but I say it none the less to keep such in mind before declaring one's self in the right. In respect to Ser Karp and his ability to make me actually see some similarity to the unionist principles, I will use the phrase he speaks often. Though I am unused to it's script Oratario Ode"

reposting this here because I didn't see they made an actual post out of it until just now ;w;'
Tiray blinked a few times, before doubling over and breaking into a fit of cackling. "We are good holy men! We mean no harm! Har har har!" Mocked a particular, drunk and snowy elf outside a pub late into the evening, snake like eyes darting around the street as she snatched one of the parchments scattered across the city by the so called Marienritter Orden, openly ripping it to shreds, all the while she shouted- in vain hopes of her words eventually traveling to the 'Marienwritter's.

"'Holy' men and knights don't beat innocents! 'Holy' men and knights don't claim they'll 'murder every non-ailor'!- With the acception Of non-progressive assholes who want to watch the world burn!- That trend ended ages ago you bumbling nitwits, tell your will to commit literal murder to your church and watch it all come crashing down!" She cursed, tossing the torn up parchments into the air.

"The world is literally ending for Gods sake! Focus on the problem at hand rather than destroying half the city's forces from the inside! Stupid people these days! The only good thing these fake knights are going to achieve is getting that bitter, Undead lovin' Kips-whatever bastard out of power!"

(another Note is Tacked below an adendum to the first)

"Oh and to Zain, I think it's time you made your choice lad. None will hold it against you if you decide this false farce is not what you wish come you maybe a unionist and one of these Knights but that doesn't mean you have to stay the Latter. Join the Real followers and the true Regalians no this sham, take a step of Faith and the rest follows. If you leave them you'll find ready friends in the arms of those your "Brothers" persecute. Cast off there Old Dead ways and join the rest of us the New."-The Url that got yah that Tea @MrNoot1

"Stop making public posts and settle it with a fist fight, or something..." The masked imp remarked, cutting words from the various public notices to form notices of his own. Ever the hypocrite.​

Marienritter Order,

While it is pleasant you took time from your day to write in response to the Crimson Inquisition it is moot. The self declared "Marienritter Order" remain required to submit themselves and all information of their order to the Crimson Inquisition.
That said, we do find fault with what you have said, many faults. While it is good you are decided to fall under a church for penance, this service does not excuse of past crimes. For, no matter how much you today claim to be devout Unionists it does not change that members of your Order have openly stated that Ordinance is not Unionism, and it does not change your order have praised a "Maria", as well as a "God". Further, we found it humorous that you claim we used this as a "political tool" while only stating fact, but here you are taking personal lives into an official matter.
If the members of the Marienritter Order believe themselves to be within the right they will willingly turn themselves in to the Crimson Inquisition for processing and questioning. Refusal to comply within three days will result in assumed evasion of law enforcement.
Finally, after speaking with a previous member of the Marienritter Order it was discovered that not all members agree with the goal of this Order, so it has been decided that case by case members of the Marienritter Order may turn themselves in and renounce the actions of the Order to see lessened or no punishment.

The Crimson Inquisition reiterates that the members of this Order are dangerous, having multiple reports today alone of recent attacks these individuals have done, including drawing weapons and attacking First Civil Status citizens simply for being Nelfin. A previous member of their order has gone as far as to call them "Rabid". Citizens should be wary around them and continue to report their actions to the Crimson Inquisition.​

Oratario ode,
Ser Karp Kippings.
Commander of the Crimson Inquisition,
Captain General of the Holy Blood of Theomar,
Holy Paladin of the Villiers-Eclaire Order,
Aristocrat of Chetznitz Province. ​

A note would be stabbed on the original notice

"Eat shit and die. Don't forget to shove Maria up your ass."

[Nirnro0t]

A note in smoothly written, familiar cursive would be plastered beside an original notice, near a very public location no doubt.

To the so delightfully despised Marienritters,

I can only imagine from whom you managed to learn my full name and throw the title of 'Jacobin' upon it. To which I can say I offer my sincerest greetings to. My only advice is that if you would like to slander my name from the words that fall from another's mouth, learn to spell it correctly.

Do not proceed to try and throw me down when your group has clearly been too far let off the leash they cling to now. Not when you have assaulted my people. Nelfin people. Little people. Innocent people. Look at the desperate words you throw around, and not one to write in your defense, Regalia is against you. Not me. Not Milo. Not Karp. You're on a very, very thin line Marienritters. Remember it.

And as for the Nook, well, the people were defending the business, naturally. But you can claim attack all you want. Let's see who's bold enough to come to defend your name and drag themselves down with you. We did ask you to leave. One of you. And it was only one of you that were assaulted for not listening. Not all. Do not expect us to show mercy when you have shown none to the people you have brutalized. I expect you'll find others far more willing to defend all the names you try and slander rather then yours or what you hide behind.

I'd watch your back, Marienritters. Regalia has spoken. And they do not want you. You're gonna need a tighter leash than that.

Have fun with the storm,
With the utmost amusement,
I spit on your existence, too,

Fen'nan Solaveira.

"Is this not the same woman who used to be apart of the gang that threatened to blow up my estate and kill my children?" The Lord Chancellor queried to his good friend Julius Peirgarten upon learning of her response. @Anarchizm

"That'd be the same one! Had her locked up and ready to be killed same as Milo for jacobinism. You know, what most of the Nook staff preaches. By the by, expect that letter soon. These people got a response for everything." Julius responded with an amused grin, setting his smoking cigar aside. @Arhbi

I am old, weary, and my joints are filled with arthritis. I shall send one representative from our fleet, who shall be an enlisted member of our fleet in my steed. All rules shall be followed, but I myself shall not fight due to my progressively worsening physical state. Oratario ode.

Abelhard Latimer,

I am a greying Ailor as well, Avanthar. It is low of you to issue this duel request and not fight yourself - but if you wish to send a representative, I shall fight him all the same so long his qualifications fit your tournament's rules.

Defender Hochmeister

You slighted us as a fleet by threatening one of our own. Not me, but the entire contingent. Therefore, we send our representatives, not an aging veteran who has since turned to command. You shall draw your blade directly after the winner of the tournament is announced. Then, you and our Champion shall duel.​
