The Grand Tour departs Hetzenberg for the Principality of Saxe-Bearstein

Reich Duke Wilhelm, young King Basil, and their entourage departed the beautiful Grand Duchy of Hetzenberg and are on the way to visit the Principality of Saxe-Bearstein. Everyone is looking forward the outstanding beers and ales for which the principality is renowned. Further, Reich Duke Wilhelm will take the opportunity to thank Furst Bruno V for his generous particiaption in his new Foreign Legion. Colonel von Schafbock sends his regards and reports his regiment has been fully integrated.

Beware of an encounter with that vile Stagonian army. It is somewhere between the Grand Duchy of Stollen and its own blighted kingdom.

They would be delighted to capture you and hold you for ransom . . . so be very very careful.

I echo Jeffs warning - be careful on your journey home - those vile stagonians like stealing coaches, I'm lucky the Wittenberg ambassador got through to Saxe-BearStein.

To the Reich-Duke of Beerstein:

His Majesty has heard of you visit to Saxe-Bearstein and invites you to visit the Kingdom of Wittenberg.

The safest route to Wittenberg from Saxe-Bearstein is travel via a southern route through the territories of the Imperium avoiding Stagonia.

Yes, remember that we think that the vile Stagonians were also behind the attempted kidnapping when your aprty left the Markgraviate of Carpania. As Jeff said, "Be vewy, vewy caweful" (to paraphrase Elmer Fudd).

Reich Duke Wilhelm has sent for additional elite escorts for this leg of the trip. To paraphrase the Irish, may we be in Saxe-Bearstein two days before the vile Stagonians know were are there.
