With all the fighting over and only waiting for few more signatures to conclude peace, Croatian armies finally came home after another great war that spreaded like flame through Europe.
But then only few days after Borna dismissed man to do as they please Borna's counselor Dominik, a man in early 50's came and asked to speak with him in private, and that it is matter of great importance. Borna summoned him in his chambers and told his page to get some wine. Borna offered him to seat and old man gladly accepted it. Borna also took a sit. He was tired of his last week duties. Many things needed to be arranged.
"What is it you wish to speak of, old friend?"
Page came with some wine and porued it in cups and served both King and Counselor
"Well Your Majesty, while you've been in war leading your man in to battle, I was here rulling city in your name. But as war was reaching it's end, I received news from far west, from Kingdom of Castile. The word is that beautifull young Countes of Sevilla, Blanche Dumont is unwed. Since Your Grace asked of me to collect informations about potentional brides and told me it is after governing city prior thing to do I found it important to share this with you as soon as possible. But after Your Grace came back from war tired of fighting, and a lot of governing issues to be solved, I have finally found some time to share this with you."
"Damn. I almost forgot about it. Tell me about her a litle more."
"Well it is said that she is fierce in duel, even she is only 20, and her beauty is well known on entire Iberian peninsula. That is all I have heard."
"Thank you counselor. Go and take some rest, you deserved it, but don't get used to it. I will need you to rule soon again. Perhaps even tommorow. Now go."
"As you wish."
Counselor left King's chamber, and a moment later so did Borna. He went to Royal Hall and told guard to go for General Kristian. After half of hour, Kristian came to Royal Hall.
"You asked for me Your Majesty?"
"Yes General, I need you to assemble my bodyguards. All 20 of them, and also find 200 more people for Royal Escort."
"As you wish Your Majesty. May I know what is purpose of this?"
Kristian was one of his most loyal man, he found him like a brother so Borna didn't have problem with sharing news with him.
"We go to Kingdom of Castile. Word reached Counselor Dominik about her beauty and skill at arms. Her name is Blanche Dumont and she is Countess of Sevilla and I hope I will be fortunate enough to marry her."
A smille showed on Kristian's face.
"When do you want us ready?"
"We leave tomorow when sun is shiniest and brightest on sky."
Next day, Royal Escort left Istra...
