The peace that formerly reigned in Terra Nova has eroded, now little more than a memory. War ravages the continent. Disputes divide kingdoms; ideals divide families. The quest for power consumes absolutely and indiscriminately. None are immune to its allure.
Who will rise and who will fall? Only time—and ambition—will tell.

Change in how times flows. Was 4 IC seasons, now only 2 IC seasons per 1 OOC year.
5 whole years of Heir Apparent goodness! When I started the site, I knew I was hunkering down for the long haul, but I never could have predicted the numerous twists and turns this roleplay site has seen. Hundreds of plots, characters, and members have come and gone, all leaving marks on the site. I am so very thankful for those who have invested. Because you keep coming back, keep getting on, and keep writing, Heir Apparent has the legacy it does today. Three cheers to us!

"It feels like ages ago since we were the newbies." Well Kat was more of a recent addition but her it been six years, now she a officer, and a chief petty officer with that. "No, from what I know of Dresmond, they possible want help with some red headed gifted called the Eldouirs who took over. I don't know much about them, aside from they are the one that attacked the palace back in Lorendale, apparently one of them turned into a Dragon."
Kat wasn't sure how Valeria got that information, but she filed it away for another day. Either she had missed a lot while in Coheed or Val was giving out military secrets that weren't supposed to be floating around. So the soldier was glad to lap them up and file them away.
"A dragon? Fuck. How do we fight that?" She wasn't fireproof. Maybe they should just send fucking Regan Lassiter to deal with it. If she didn't come back, oh well. One less person she had to be angry with. "Pity the folks they send there." Because Kat had no plan to be on that suicide mission if she had any say in it.

Valeria laughed, "Apparently that dragon was killed, but if one of them can turn into a dragon, who knows what the others can do." She sighs as she rubbed the back of her neck. "I just hope that the King and my dad knows what they getting themselves into, if they are that dangerous?" There is a sad look in her eyes, thinking about if her dad goes out, if Keir get sent out there. What if they don't come back? She know that is the risk you have to take when you sign up to be in the military. However, it doesn't mean she don't worry about them.
"Well looks like you got pregnant at the right time then Val." Maybe the witch was smarter than she let on, but something told Kat that there was no master plan there. There would be plenty of women who pulled stunts like that to avoid shipping out, but the woman before her didn't seem the type for scheming.
Either way she shrugged her shoulders and continued looking at the weapons. "Guess I'll be going to war soon then. Weird."

There was a small laugh, "Yeah it seems like we planned it that way, even Keir said he was happy that he was glade that I wasn't going. However, I feel like I want to go out and fight, to use my magic to protect, to help the Dresmond. I want to summon a creature, set a curse on the Eldouirs if I could. Maybe it me wanting to do more, maybe it my fear worried that i won't be able to do anything happens to Keir or my dad. They are both great soldiers but neither are them are werewolfs. So they only so much they can do."
She was kind of happy that they didn't have the curse but they would be stronger in were form.
"They'll be safe, they won't be alone, don't worry Val." Kat was sure that the Commander would be surrounded by plenty of support if he was in battle. Maybe not so much the royal guard. He was probably more likely to die, but she didn't think it was necessary to point out.
Kat decided that was enough talk about death though. "Anything else I missed while I was away?"

Valeria give a soft smile "Yeah they are both skilled with their swords. I am sure they will be safe." Well hope they will be fine, they the only family she has and she just want them home. Like if Keir get sent out she would love if he come back and his child was born. To see him hold his child in his arms would be a magical moment.
She thought for a moment. "Nothing that i know of but I will keep you inform well where I can you know being a officer and all there only so much I can say." She give a soft laugh.
Kat nodded, glad to move on from the subject. The problem with war was how unpredictable it was. There was a reason Nevermere prepared so much, made children go through military training. And Kat planned to make sure she and hers made it out alive from the conflict.
"Oh come on, since when do we have to follow all the rules." Laughing, Kat shook her head, and passed off her choices to the blacksmith. Which unfortunately meant her free time for the day was over. "I've gotta get back to training, want to walk with?"
