The latest gossip..

Words spread that the Queen has been pre-occupied with a favourable trade opportunity. Leaving the poor King neglected and left to tend his duties on his own.
-
Count Immerdusk enjoys a personal visit by the King himself, the pair spends hours lavishing expensive cheeses and exotic wines.
-
The King's visits to the Crown have been frequent, if not daily. Causing a panic in the kitchen as their finest food and wine begin to dwindle, the Count himself look exhausted from the constant work of keeping the King entertained. Not that any Crown Guard's complain, for whenever the King is around it is like a solstice celebration every time!
-
It seems the constant jokes about full plate have finally made Adelaide change to a breastplate that looks remarkably similar to the one Dawnspeaker Tass was wearing till recently…
-
Dominic also appears to have given into the pressure on plate and has been seen wearing Chainmail having put the plate into the storage armoire
-
As quick as he came, Blueblood Onthaar is seen departing.
//This faction isn't for me based on a recent rp. All the best//
-
Adelaide is seen reading the "The Crown Guard Code of Conduct" with considerble intrest.
-
Immediately after the news of the Anglemorn family’s death, Adelaide becomes deeply unsettled. However she starts wearing a Lathanderite holy symbol as a bracelet of sorts a few days after and it seems to calm her somewhat.
Prayers to Lathander also frequently pass her lips now.

As the Bluebloods return from their nightly "after hours" celebration at the Falcon Rest, remnants of a rather catchy song is spreading amongst the high born. The Song may even be found in various copies around the barracks.
Borrowed feathers make no bird
Promised you a song, I shall not lie
But once you hear it, you likely will sigh
Impart upon you a lesson I shall attempt
You shall bow to your betters, not show them contempt!Dear little Swift, with Helmsblade in hand,
Crying in frustration, your bloodline so bland
Your uniform teal, your arrogance absurd
For borrowed feathers, never make you a birdA farmboy in act and with no decorum
It is time you learn how to act in a courtroom
For while you may be skilled with a sword,
A teal uniform, will not make you a lordLearn your place, Dominic Swift
Or in the Crownguard you create a rift
Stop undermining our rule, it is highly treasonous
Acknowledge the bluebloods, you are far beneath us -
Dominic simply distributes copies of the bounty poster of the warlock Volmar, and points to the head of the deadly lycan Siona on prominent display in the lobby and highlights the prestige and glory he has brought to the Crownguard
-
Adelaide on the other hand seems to be writing a story in her off duty hours, judging from her unhappy exprestion while working on it, it's likely a sad one.
-
Three Crownguards return, after sendings where made about Tethgard. Enlighted, the three seem closer somewhat. Yet while everything else seems ordinary, an odd mark has been seen once or twice upon Sabriel, whenever her sleeve is not properly pulled down. She is even seen absently rubbing her wrist from time to time.
-
The kitchens food supplies dwindles as suddenly farmers refuse to trade with the Crown Guards, Bluebloods shrug this off as their money keeps them well fed. But the common plebs struggle with their duties as they work hungry.

A young, fine looking Blueblood enters the kitchen and leaves a sizable gold pouch with the kitchen staff. She instructs them to use the gold to purchase additional food for the common born members of the Crownguard, and ensure do not go on active duty with an empty belly. Next to the gold pouch, she leaves a workers song for the kitchen staff, to sing as they work.Feed my fellow soldier, let not his stomach rumble,
House Florent has deep roots,
We will not let the Crownguard crumble!The stout must help those in need,
Sabriel is your devoted patron,
The common man I shall help you feed((will trash my roughly 2000 gold next I log in.))
-
The kitchen is thankful as it spends it well on wine
-
Word spreads of many admiring scions of Wilhelm's cunning entrapment of Jendayi of the Savage Druids. More than a few joke about taking him under their wing as a man servant in the future, for talented commoners are a rare breed indeed.
-
The bluebloods complain about someone eating fish pie in the common room again, as it permeates the air and soaks into all the good cushions. Which makes its source a total mystery.
-
With Blueblood Florent's departure and the clear tensions over the Elven Fellowship, Adelaide seems to be spending more and more time alone or with the Precept.
Other Crownguard will also notice the hatefull glances she seems to shoot Dominic with great frequency.
-
Members of the Crown Guard can be found singing
"Mr. Swift is the biggest craven, the Crown has ever found,
His challenges people left and right, but a coward when it count
If he cannot stack the rules, making victory certain
He puts his tail between his legs, and hides behind the curtain." softly under their breath as they go about their work and even older members will idly hum something that sounds suspiciously similar from time to time.
