What happens
Sad news reaches our capital today as we learn that our beloved Marie, Duchess of Burgundy, has passed from this life into the next. A sweet and kind-hearted girl, and a loving wife to the our dynasty Prince, Marie will be sorely missed in the our court. Marie was a passionate horse-rider and accompanied her husband on his routine hunts, but her kind heart and passion for riding could not save her when her five-hundred-kilogram horse fell atop her and shattered her spine.\n\nTo our surprise, the lords and ladies of Burgundy have not immediately begun bending the knee to our our ruler, but have instead recognised a distant cousin of Marie’s as their rightful ruler. This is ridiculous, the law makes it clear that a our dynasty must succeed upon Marie’s death. It appears the mad nobles of Burgundy only recognise the language of violence and we shall have to enforce our lawful claim with blood.
