Igraine was in her room, her father was picky when it came to husbands for her, she had heard many things about other nations ministers and monarchy, she longed to travel and meet people but was doomed to isolation until her father chose for her.

OOC: this is an open RP, as said, if the princess is married the alliance will be formed, our nation is strong and powerful.

OOC: This sounds interesting. I am going to join.

Prince Henry of Latin Byzantines was one of the sons of Emperor Baldwin VIII, he was well versed in literature and posessed a talent for music. Henry had heard about Princess Igraine and her father's search for an acceptable husband, and Henry thought he could see if he would be an acceptable husband for Igraine.

To: The King of Sparklesun
From: Prince Henry of Latin Byzantines

Greetings, Your Majesty. I am Prince Henry, son of the Emperor Baldwin VIII of Latin Byzantines. I have heard about your search for a husband for Princess Igraine, and I would like to offer myself as a candidate. I am a young man, in my 20's and I am well versed in literature and skillful in music, I have composed my own symphonies, some of which are quite famous, at least in my nation. If there is any information you would like from me, then do not hesistate to ask in your reply.

Sincerely,
Prince Henry

Henry sent the letter to the King of Sparklesun, hoping that he would be considered by the King as a choice for being Igraine's husband.

'I am pleased to say I am interested, would you like Igraine to come to you or you come here?' He sat back smiling. he could be the one.

'well you can come over as soon as you wish, Igraine is currently competing in the national showjumping championships, so she will be at the nations stud with the horses, however I will get her back here to meet you' the king said on the phone.

"I thank you for allowing me the opportunity to meet with your daughter and I thank you also for considering me as a possible suitor." Henry replied.

Henry packed his things together and boarded a plane to Sparklesun. Henry contemplated in his mind how things could play out for him in Sparklesun, hopefully he would not have any problems. As he waited to arrive in Sparklesun, Henry took out his Sherlock Holmes book and began reading it, he enjoyed a good mystery now and then.

When the plane did arrive, Henry came out of the plane and was greeted by a welcoming group of government officials and an honor guard.

The king was the first to greet him, then behind them stood Igraine, he hair was thin and brown, it blew in the wind, her skin looked like porcelain, but behind her eyes she was sad, she wore her long ceremony dress with long draping silk sleeves.....

'Greetings, I welcome you to my nation of Sparklesun' Igraine said, curtsying to him.

OOC: sent you a telegram..........

"Your Majesty, it is an honor to meet you." Henry said to the king before seeing Igraine, who he recognized from the picture he had recieved. "Your Highness, I thank you for your welcome, and may I say, you look lovely today." Henry replied to Igraine.

I am interested (even though I haven’t been role-playing much lately), but before I join, I have a question of ask of you: what is your nation’s Technology Level (TL)?

My own nation is chiefly Future Tech nation (i.e. with spaceships, energy weapons and the like), and so, I will be able to participate in this RPG only if your nation is of Future Tech as well.

Henry smiled back at Igraine as they went into the escort vehicle. As the vehicle drove to the Palace, Henry looked at Igraine, she looked exactly as she did in the picture, she was quite lovely. In some time, the escort vehicles arrived at the Palace.

Igraine saw him looking at her, she glanced at him quickly, she felt her heart flutter, he was very handsome.

They got to the palace, Igraine stepped out and breathed in the sweet honeyflower scent that covered the white brick palace, She turned to look up the long drive to see her champion horses galloping in the green fields.

When Henry got out of the vehicle, he smelt the honeyflower scent and did not mind it. He looked at Igraine as they walked to the doors of the Palace, greeting the guardsmen who patroled the area. When they entered, Henry looked at Igraine and asked "If it is possible, may I have a tour of the Palace?"

"I would not mind you as my guide." Henry said, feeling her hand in his. As they walked around, Henry made sure he got a look of every room Igraine showed him. As they were walking through the halls of the Palace, going through the various rooms and corridors, Henry looked at Igraine. "Thank you for the tour. You are a good tour guide."

'first time as well, we do not have many visitors, the unlikely reputation of the border tribes make people wary of visiting' she said turning to look at him, her eyes bright blue, but they still looked sad.

she tucked some hair behind her ear and looked out the big panoramic window to her horses in the field and she smiled to herself.

Henry smiled back at Igraine as she talked about her interest in horses. He was thinking about riding with her in the fields, if she was open to the idea.

"Why do you think they have been quiet?" Henry asked, a bit curious. He could smell her scent, it was quite good actually. "Lady, perhaps you would like to go horse riding together in the fields?"

'I would like that' she said smiling, she felt daring, she kissed his cheek quickly. Then had very red cheeks.

She lead him down to the stables, she gave him her older bigger horse and she had her prize-winning mare, they walked up the drive and along to the corn fields.

Henry felt her lips on his cheek and saw that her sheeks were turning very red. He smiled at her, it was quite unexpected but he did not mind it at all.

When he recieved his horse, Henry mounted it and went with Igraine up the drive, to the corn fields. Henry looked at Igraine, getting a look at her as she rode her horse. "How long have you been horse riding?"

CVS HQ, Skgorria City:

"Fuck off, Baramovic."
"No, really, sir, you need to li-"
"Fuck. Off. Which part of that don't you understand?"
"Sir, please, we ne-"
"FUCK OFF! I AM NOT IN THE MOOD TO LISTEN TO THE HIDEOUS SIMPERING DRIVEL THAT PASSES FOR REPORTS FROM OUR GREY MEN!"
"But sir, I-"
"OUT! NOW! Before I have you shot, then sent to Vorkutlag-2!"
"Yessir."

As the door closed behind the hapless Baramovic, General Ostmak put his head in his hands and sighed. The report on his desk detailed, in mind-numbing exactitude, the preparations being made by a tiny kingdom for a wedding of some sort. He wished that the Empire of the Wolf still had a trigger-happy strategic rocket force; this was one nation he'd've been happy to stick 'irradiated' on each and every file concerning it.

Sadly, instead, he had to trawl through the guff for anything of any interest. Had there been any? No. Was there likely to be any? No. Ostmak sighed again, checked his watch, and poured himself a shot of schnapps.
