The Crown of Caethir

[Inkoven]

The meeting has been cancelled.

Franz Erbe has been slain by Vale Ackerman, who is working with the mercenary Adira to usurp Adelaide. 
Despite her grief, the King has issued a statement.

"Any hope of collaboration was squandered the moment you took the life of Franz, and demanded Adira be allowed to rule Caethir.

I thought you of all people would know our Kingdom does not support oppression and gluttony.
You have been swayed by those traits personified to scorn the Crown, to insult your people by seeking to place the Fae upon a pedestal. 
Your proposed concession of 'allowing' my family to remain in the place we founded, while ruled by someone who had made attempts on my life and threatened its people, is all but a blatant insult.

Come with your 'faction.' Knock on the gates of what was your home, holding hands with ruin.
We will answer."
