(Despite my username for the foreseeable future I will be RP'ing as Richard of Gloucester, with the consent of the respective player and that of the Admin.)
Richard returned to his quarters within the Tower of London after having partaken evening mass and the requisite ablutions. The Duke of Gloucester, always having been a pious man since childhood, had recently increased his already fastidious religious observances since the death of his brother upon the council of John Morton the presiding Archbishop of Canterbury. The foreseeable future would be a trying time for the duke, with many strains on his moral strength and judgement; he wished to ensure the Christ's benediction was with him. These recent weeks had taken their toll, he felt weary and longed for sleep as he sat at his table and poured wine into a wooden cup. Nevertheless, there was still work to be done, no rest for the wicked he mused as he reached for a quill and wet the nib.
(Letters are sent to Henry Stafford the Duke of Buckingham, Anthony Woodville the Earl Rivers , Thomas Stanley the Earl of Derby and King of Mann and Ralph Neville, the Earl of Westmorland; summoning them to London. There were government offices to allocate and Richard required dependable men at his side.)
