14th march 1574 "Since the bullet works in the musket, let's try the gun itself!" Completly rising up from behind the earthy mound, I climbed all the way to its top, discarding the used weapon away. With the help of Elia, we brough up the prefabricated set for my new invention, consisting of the base on which everything would be mounted, a long, barrel and the ignition chamber. Taking the small magazine put together haphazardly with the use of some sticks and threads connecting the bullet tubes, I made…-

14th march 1574 "Surprisingly, making those small parts was far easier than I expected. Instead of making them separately, I just used one of the old forms and added blockades to split the entire barrel into the small parts you wanted sir. If I were to find the solution for some smaller problems, I could make about three mechanisms that you requested, sir, daily." As soon as the new day began, the first thing that I did with Elia, was to rush towards the city, in hopes that the hard part of my primitive…

13th march 1574 The simplicity of the new project not only means that there was hardly any part that could break during the process of shooting but making the entire thing didn't require any real skill. After dressing up and turning the sketches that I made into a properly written blueprint on a normal piece of paper, all I had to do is to get down from my castle to the lower part, pick up a horse with Elia and take a quick drive to the city. After passing the Tarnow's gates, it took us only about three…

13th march 1574 "What's with your face? What are you thinking about?" Suddenly stopping her cuddles, Elia climbed on top of my chest and after combing her hands together on my solar plexus, she rested her chin on top of them, looking straight in my hazy eyes. "Ah, sorry. Was thinking about the possible ways of retaking the Pilzno." Just like I said, even if the idea was ready, it's introduction was far harder than I initially assumed it would be. Not even bothering with the fact that a simple check…

13th march 1574 After everything was said and done… I ended up blue balling myself instead. After licking all the tears from Elia's face, and stealing another deep kiss from her lips, we started cuddling for a long time, but the longer we were embracing each other, while the fire in my body was only spreading, my hesitation also continued to grow. Looking at the situation as a whole, no matter if the problem was resolved or not, it still started with Elia approaching me and attempting to use her body…

12th march 1574 As soon as my body fell lifelessly on the bed, I felt an additional weight pressing me down to the mattress, as my head got buried in the pillow. At first, I was sure that someone managed to hide in the room without me noticing and I would just suffer the face of the Cezar Augustus from the Gludiator movie, but before I could even call out for my strength to fight back, I felt a pair of hands grabbing my clothes before pulling my upper body up and pulling my shirt out of me. Falling back…

12th march 1574 With a sizeable shed built on the huge area just beside the castle and all the resources moved there, I could finally start working on the very first factory I had in my mind. With over three carriages of metal, wood, barrels and all other sorts of goodies I got from the Sandomir, the first Tarnowian Noble brewery would hopefully start its existence today! With the blueprint for the entire project displayed in the corner of my vision, I moved the first batch of wooden planks to one side…

12th march 1574 Contrary to my worries and even expectations, we didn't get to meet Peter's forces. A night raid didn't happen, no one ambushed us as we were preparing the carriages to depart, no one blocked our way on the road to the Tarnow nor did anyone gave us a battle under the city walls. Without anyone interrupting us, I rode on top of the column of people all the way to the mountain of the saint Martin, when my castle was located. Not even there was there any interruption, outside of the guards…

11th march 1574 Only thanks to the fact that we left the hunting camp as soon as the supplies and men arrived from Sandomir, by the end of the second day of our Travel, despite being slowed down by the set of carriages carrying said supplies, we finally reached the proximity of the Tarnow. While unable to reach the city or even the castle on the same day, we still managed to pass the boundary of the big Tarn Oakstone village. Even though it was governed by a completely different family, after just a few…

11th march 1574 With my now increased company and a few carriages filled to the brim with wares brough directly from the Sandomir as per Governor's request, I was calmly sitting in my saddle, allowing for the monotone wobbling of Helga's back to lul me to the state near sleeping. Considering how we entered the camp with a force of three people because with Elia on my side, I couldn't even call us three men strong, and how I rode on the front of over fifty men strong division loaned to me directly by Jan…
