However, she has not lived down the knapsack, nor the fact no-one asked her if she wants to marry me, or at least so it seems, because she seems determined to make my life hell. When she rides across the courtyard, or entertains my vassal, I feel like I might be falling in love. She is well read, intelligent and kind to a fault. Malfridr is indeed a genius with numbers and well read otherwise. Also making a note for later - conquer Vytebsk, make the bastard pay for manhandling my Malfridr. I tried to throw a lavish ceremony to compensate for the fact that I am getting married to a lowborn that arrived in a knapsack. My future wife was understandably very irate over the way of her transport. The high-spirits and civilization brough by faith in Odinn-Solar aids us in this.ДЄfter a couple of days, a swift rider brought back a struggling knapsack from Vytebsk. I order the to start securing the surrounding lands, and give them money enough to be able to accomplish that.

Then I meet with my minor vassals in Novgorod. So I sent the rest of my councillors out to gather the support of the nobles, collect tithes and drill the huskarls back into shape. But in these lands, rights are nothing without the might to back them up. Much of it should belong to me, by right. Waiting for a reply from Vytebsk, I climbed the high balcony and looked over the surrounding land. Hopefully, this will get them to settle down a bit. I need them to accept our faith and our rule. The peasants there still do not respect Odinn-Solar and instead cling to old gods and ways of life.

I also sent the head priest, Ingifastr to Pskov. She is technically a lowborn, but so were most of the 'courtly' maidens in Novgorod. I had my chancellor draft a letter asking for her hand in marriage.

I heard there was a girl in the court of that pompous Haakoning, Valdamar of Vytebsk that actually knows how to hold a fork, and hold to hold a quill, and with lovely red hair as well. If only my father would have allowed me to marry one of those lovely girls we met on the streets of Constantinople. All the eligible maidens of the realm were brought before me, and all were more vacant-eyed than a snake-bitten goat. Easy enough for them to say, but I'm the one getting married. My father's councilors keep telling me I should marry, in order to secure a continuation of the royal line. Some of that warrior tradition has remained and his personal levy is better than average. His capital holding is renowned for the legendary host that the Rurikings could muster in the past. The religion of his line, Odinn-Solar, is new, and only accepted in Novgorod and Velikye Luki. He rules the county of Novgotof directly, and through his title as Duke of Holgardr, is liege over Pskov and Velikye Luki. And vengeful when over even the most minor of slights. But other than those minor shortcomings, he looks like he could be a great duke, if a little bit poorly read and ignorant of matters of history, philosophy and religion. And his excessive fondness of fine meals. If he has any faults, it is his optimism, and his dangerous habit to lead his troops from the front. He is brilliant in matters of war, and leads with cunning. An optimistic, reliable fellow, whose staunch loyalty to his ancestors and his people is beyond reproach. The Light shall stand Unconquered! Or something. Odinn-Sol watches over us, and our troops are the stuff of legend, especially with me at the front. Perhaps it is time to reconquer some of the lands our line ruled in the past. With time, many of our greatest warriors came to serve as mercenaries to the Rhomanion Emperor, and brought back with them many new customs and riches. Ingvar perished at the hands of the Drevlyans, and the title passed away from our bloodline. And it was his descendant Ignvar, my namesake, that was made King of Gardariki. It was Rurik that established a fastness in Holmgardr, and filled it with the best warriors of the land. But they tired of the brigand life, took wives and settled. They sailed south, bringing the sword to whoever stood against them. They found the Peipus and beyond it, the river Nara. Centuries ago, my ancestors sailed across the icy seas upon swift boats. I am of the line of the Rurik, whose name is still whispered with admiration throughout the land. My name is Ingvar, the second to bear that name. On the other hand, it is much more open to abuse in LI, since you have a ton more traits to play with, and genetics is stronger than in the base game. it seems like a cool tool to have for the base game, and for some minore LI rulers, since it allows me to add bloodline traits. I caved in yesterday and bought the Ruler Designer.
