April 3, 1230 Elysium enters into session Prince Innsberg enters Elysium and announces that today his Lordship Hardistadt court will take place rather then the Prince’s court. The Prince explains that his Lordship holds court in the style of the old Germanic kings and travels his lands form city to city to stay informed and gain personal insight into the matters of his domain. Irstav, (6ft tall, Norse, Blond w/ a large Axe across his back) storms into Elysium ordering everyone to kneel for his Lordships arrival. His Lordship enters the main chamber while everyone remain kneeled and asks everyone to be seated, as he sits on a chair away from the main table facing away from the door. His Lordship mentions that the number of canites in this court has more then doubled from the last time he held court in Vienna. Some time is invested in bringing his lordship up to date with the most important of events concerning the city as a whole. His Lordship then departs to settle the matter of his accommodations within the city. Max departs form court Nicolai rejoins court after a prolonged absence in Russia after he was brought back from Torpor by Arturos several days after the attack on the chantry outpost. He says to have settled matters with his sire and is here to continue his work in seeing if cities are truly the future. Celis, a new Tremere joins court, says to be from England, of a family of silversmiths, sent to Vienna to be taught the ways of Canite society. Wilhelm, a new Brujah joins court, he says that he was a Crusader from the Holly Roman Empire, was present when Constantinople was taken and saw some of his friends do horrifying things. Max is found in Torpor as he apparently ran out of blood and went into rage before collapsing. He is left lying on the floor of Elysium before William Dorin is summoned to remove Max to be take care off. Cebirio, a Losambra (Old man wearing a cowhide, pale, hooded and radiating an unsettling feeling) he asks that the lights be dimmed, but as his request isn’t satisfied the lights on the far end of the room stop illuminating as they are surrounded by impenetrable darkness. Seneschal Malto, undoes this magic with a flame appearing from his hand, which is then shortly after also covered by thick darkness till the prince asks courtiers to refrain from using disciplines at Elysium and all magic is dispelled. Cebirio then offers to read Courtier’s fortunes with the use of runes and consulting the fates. As Cebirio reads Lilia/Lilin’s fortune she then appears to not be able to remove her sight from him and follows him wherever he goes for several minutes. Court then begins to disperse as Courtiers retire to attend personal matters. Court reassembles briefly and is then concluded and dismissed by Prince Richard Innsberg’s orders.
