Salutations to all The Chosen of Aldrip,
My name is Richard Plantagenet, the Duke of Gloucester of England and the son of Duke of York. My time in this world may be merely a blink of an eye compared to some of you who have been residing here for over a full calendar year, experiencing the change of all four seasons under the sky. However, during my brief stay I have come to notice that there are plenty of wrongs in this world, which threatens the peace of our lives here. Now, some of these wrongs might be out of our control, such as the afflictions plaguing our environment. Or the activities of the council. However, this does not mean that we are completely powerless.
It has come to my attention that thee has been a several times when we have been faced with a violent threat and an attack, be it from monstrous creature from the depths of the ocean or a curse spreading among ourselves. I fully believe that we, as a community, could benefit from organizing ourselves so that we might be prepared when the next crisis arrives to our doorsteps.
I call forward anyone with any combat training, be it from military training, self-taught or magically oriented, and share their knowledge to those who might lack skills in self-defense. It is not in my intention to position myself as a leader, nor a raise an army, but to strengthen our teamwork and cooperation as a community. I am myself experienced knight who fought and served my king in a civil war known as War of Roses, and currently I'm learning the usage of firearms under the tutelage of Mr. Valentine. I am willing to train and pass down my knowledge to anyone who is willing to learn. However, I am aware that I am out of my depths and that many of you possesses abilities both as fighters and as tacticians that I could not even fathom. Which is why I sincerely hope those individuals to answer my call and step forward and help create a safer city.
Signed,
Richard Plantagenet, The Duke of Gloucester

no subject

no subject
I do not follow you, Junpei.
no subject
i know how to read and write. i went to college and everything. i'm not illiterate. what part's hard?
no subject
You know how to read and write, but yet you're bad at it that you prefer not to. That does not sound far from being illiterate.
What is a college?
no subject
like illiterate means something and it's not anything i said. "not far from" and "totally is" aren't the same either.
advanced extra school.
1/2
There is nothing like this in my world. A mirror is the closest thing to it.
no subject
You are well-educated?
no subject
apparently not if i don't handwrite all the letters i don't send, but yeah, i am.
no subject
[aka your value just went up-]
no subject
that's usually what college is for, yeah.
no subject
That is impressive. I believe you are the right person to handle the logistics and dealings with Silco. I have heard that he can be difficult.
no subject
fine, whatever. he asked how many people and when you're doing this, by the way. and if you want an estimate.
no subject
At least twenty people, give or take. The date has not been decided yet, as the preparations are still incomplete. However, I do hope the first meeting will be in held within the next moon phase.
[...right. moon doesn't change]
That is to say at the turn of next month.
no subject
[He's still grumpy but he's going to do his little job... hmph.]
no subject
Much obliged, Junpei.
