Ancient Imperial Calendar Year 1808-1809
An embassy delegation of a thousand people was formed in Ashterah, the Ashbrum Center, and Lionwei Arhat was at the head of the delegation.
Lionwei could not forget what happened in the council, Kilaiwen's words and suicide were bothering his mind. After Kilai was thrown into the dungeon, he had killed himself by emptying all the air from his body with a breath spell and asphyxiating himself.
Shenlad's death from a heart attack also caused the Ashbrums to collapse mentally and spiritually. After these two deaths, the Council reconvened and Marco was appointed as the head of the council. Marco established an embassy delegation of a thousand people and appointed Lionwei, one of the best diplomats of the Ashbrums, as the head. He had only one goal: to make a peace treaty with the least damage.
After the second Council meeting, Marco ascended to the throne as the new Dynasty Lord, Carl's son XXI Junric IX. Many people objected to this situation, they opposed the accession of Carl's son, who had led them to disaster, to the throne. Marco had to oppose these reactions, albeit reluctantly, as a Dynasty member.
"Calm down, am I so happy with this situation? If I had my way, I would wipe out Carl's line from the face of the earth, but you know that since the times of the Ancient Empire, the throne has always passed from father to son, the opposite is considered the end of the Dynasty"
A Dynasty member
"Marco do we still have to follow this tradition 1000 years have passed since the Ancient Empire collapsed 1000 years"
Marco responded to this statement
"Even the Kislaveins you hate follow this tradition as a religious ritual, not only them, the Turkig Dynasty in the northern lands, the Arfas Dynasty in the south have always followed this tradition since the Ancient Empire, if we abandon this tradition now because of our hatred for Carl, the Ashbrum Dynasty, the oldest Dynasty in all the Lands, will be considered fallen"
The Dynasty members who think like Marco also take courage from Marco's speeches
"Marco is right, there is even a verse in the holy books that if a dynasty lord has no heirs left and someone from the older generation ascends to the throne, that dynasty ends and a new dynasty begins, even when God commands this, we cannot act with hatred and anger and make this mistake"
The members of the dynasty calmed down, the embassy delegation set out to meet with the Kislavein under the command of Lionwei, carrying white Ashbrum banners symbolizing surrender and desire for peace.
Kislavein Headquarters a month later.
The Kislavein had not rested since the last war. Despite their heavy losses as much as the Ashbrum, they were trying to conquer as many cities as they could using this opportunity. 11 armies, each consisting of ten legions, surrounded the cities and castles, and increased the civilian casualties by plundering and massacring the places they conquered, aiming to force the Ashbrum to surrender.
The Kislavein continued to conquer the Ashbrum lands, and the Ashbrum embassy of a thousand people had reached the Kislavein headquarters. The Ashbrums were greeted with insults, curses and humiliations at the Kislavein headquarters. A few people from the delegation took them to the tent of the Kislavein House Lord IV Orsman. The tent was three times the size of a peasant's house, inspired by the tents of the steppe nomads. Orsman was sitting on his throne in all his glory. The Ashbrums knelt.
"We present our respects to the Kislavein House Lord IV Orsman. We bring you the wish for peace from our new House Lord IX Junric"
Orsman was pleased, he would finally get what he wanted after years of war.
""Well, just breathing the same air as the Ashbrums makes me sick to my stomach. To keep it short, you will return all the lands we gave you 300 years ago. You will pay 3.5 billion gold in compensation. Your lord's brothers and sisters will be given to us as political hostages. And you will give us the heads of Marco and Brian Ashbrum, who killed my right-wing commanders Arrogan and Gustav in the war."
Lionwei thought about what to do in the face of these temples. Half of the Ashbrun lands, all of their ten years' income, and the heads of two promising Dynasty members were all very harsh terms for the Ashbrums. Refusing or even reducing the compensation was out of the question because the winner would take all, but Lionwei decided to make an attempt to recover Marco and Brian's heads.
""It is your natural right to want to avenge your Dynasty Lord Orsman commanders, but it is natural for warriors to kill each other on the battlefield, and you either die or are killed there. Marco and Brian are on the verge of death from the wounds they received in the war."
Orsman understood that Lionwei was lying and started to strangle Lion with magic
"You think I don't understand that you are lying, if I kill you right here and massacre your delegation, who would say what, maybe some would say that the ambassador would not be harmed, I would say that I took revenge for my slaughtered ambassadors and who would find me strange, history is written by the winners and we won this war and we will write history"
Lionwei's face began to turn purple, he felt the breath of death on his neck, just as he was about to take his last breath, Orsman let go of Lionwei, who fell to the ground, began to cough and take deep breaths. Orsman took his sword and stood up, putting the tip of his sword to Lionwei's throat.
"Marco and Brian killed many of my talented men, I want those two heads"
Lionwei made a move that would probably cause him to be killed by the Ashbrums, if not the Kislaveins, to save the two of them.
"Then let's pay blood money for the heads of both of them"
Orsman began to grin, at that moment Lionwei realized that he had fallen into a trap. Orsman sheathed his sword, sat on his throne and began to explain the amount of blood money.
"1.5 billion gold and Blumbardir castle north of Ashterah city"
Lionwei understood at that moment that Orsman wanted to get more gold and land, but since he could not do it because of the Great Dynasty Base Treaty 500 years ago, he did it under the name of blood money by using Marco and Brian as an excuse. Lionwei was very sorry. Orsman and the Kislaveins in the tent were in a good mood. Orsman took a sip of his wine, signaled to his men and wrote the peace treaty. After putting their seals on the treaty on both sides, he looked at his warriors.
"Warriors, show these scum the way out of the camp, I do not want to breathe the same air with these scum anymore"
The warriors threw the ambassadors out of the tent by holding their arms, then the thousand-person delegation left the Kislavein camp without even a day of rest. Lionwei was executed for the damage he caused to the Ashbrum Dynasty and for not being able to fulfill his duty. The Ashbrums signed a heavy treaty and became dependent on the Kislavein. This war ended with the absolute Kislavein Victory.
There were celebrations, festivities and feasts all over the lands of Kislavein for 40 days and 40 nights. Orsman was eating and drinking with his soldiers at that time. Orsman's sons came to mind. "Riccardo and his two brothers will be 14 this year. When will he grow up and reach the age of entering the academy? I hope he has become stronger in the past years. The war of the heirs will begin in a year. Let's see if Ricardo can win this war and become my successor. I have great expectations from you, my son. I hope you don't disappoint me." The war of the dynasties had ended and now the War of the Heirs had begun.
