1401 CE

*Henry hobbles to a more central position*

"Good evening fellow Kindred. As you may all know my name is Henry Bisshop. You all have recently elected me to the position of Master of Harpies. I thank you all from the depths of my soul for entrusting in me the upkeep of excellent kindrid society. I vow to not only maintain, but to also improve on the respectability of our society, and to improve on our relations with other courts.

Before we begin taking stock of the boons owed, I would first like to announce the three Harpies that will be entrusted with our society. First is Enki Koldun Clan Tzimiscie. Second is Kristophe Windt of Clan Cappadocian. Thirdly is Leonarduccio Esposito of Clan Lasombra. In electing me, you have entrusted me the upkeep of our quality of society so in turn, I request you trust in them as well. *Henry turns to the new Harpies* I look forward to working closely with you and I hope you will accept the position.

Now, since that is finished, is there anything else that needs to be done before we move on to the boons?"

Gregor appears out of a back room shaking his head he looks at Henry. "Master of Harpies." He gives a nod of respect.

He clears his throat "I have payed close attention to the actions of many members of the city and thus would bestow upon the following members that status of Vanguard. Duccio, Finn, Ilza, Gwynne, Issac, Aserymus, Abdul, Enki, and Kristophe."

Gregor leaves and heads into the room the prince disappeared into.

*Henry returns the nod*

"Congratulations everyone who received the Vanguard status. Now if there is no other announcements to make, I would like to proceed to the declaration of boons. Would everyone who owes a boon please declare what boon they owe and to whom so that it may be recorded for the court.

To begin, I Henry Bisshop owe Keeper Torsten a minor boon."

Enki enters the room along with his usual bodyguard, the two of them appear to be dressed in more formal clothing then normal. Enki is wearing a well crafted deep green robe, with earthen brown edging. Upon parts of the robe are inscribed golden symbols. His ghoul while still wearing Leather armor has a similar styled robe but with less detail on it. Along side the two of them enters a large hound often seen with Enki, the canine is black and brown and wears a collar styled to match Enki and the ghoul. Enki takes his seat and scratch's the dogs head.

He looks to Henry and says with a smile " Thank you Master Henry for assigning me the Noble position of Harpy. I will perform my duties to the best of my abilities. Onto the matter of boons I owe Aserymus of Clan Brujah a major boon for services rendered. Additionally I am owed a minor boon from our Noble Prince and a trivial boon from the Keeper Torston."

Enki motions to Maria, and the ghoul comes over to whisper something in his ear.

Torston comes out of a side room shaking his head, he stands in front of everyone and speaks in a loud tone. "May it be known that Giovanni Bellini of clan Nosferatu is hereby acknowledged by the court. He is also considered Untrustworthy by the Warden, and for matters of boons owes a minor boon to our Noble Prince."

Enki smiles and leans back in his chair to speak to Issac in a low voice to not draw attention away from the important announcements taking place.

Enki leans back in his chair.

"So I hear we have a new member of court, what has everyone seen of them thus far?"

*Henry looks towards Delcamp with annoyance.*

"Since he is of my clan I will take responsibility for seeing to his recuperation. I apologize for the trouble he has caused. Gwynne, If you could do my the favor of bringing him to my chapel I will see to his wounds. I will make sure he repays you for his recovery. As thanks from clan Malkavian, I will grant you a minor boon from myself. If you will be so kind as to fill me in on what you needed to do to recover him I will assign an appropriate boon owed from Delcamp here."

Kristophe enters, dressed similarly to the Prince's party not that long ago. He takes in the scene of the wounded kindred before making his way over near Henry. "Good evening my ser Master of the Harpies. I am told we are taking stock of bons owned and owed. I am owed one minor boon by the Prince. I believe Ilza has mentioned her's from me. I also owe a trivial boon to Aserymus for the use of his time."
