The Howard's of Star Base 12

The Trip to Pembroke Territory

The Trip to Pembroke Territory

Lady Karissa decides to take a journey to her territory with Lady Elizabeth and it delays the installation of Lord Andrew Charles and her as Duke and Duchess of Norfolk Territory.

Lord Andrew Charles is not very happy about the postponement of their installation of becoming Duke and Duchess of Norfolk Territory.

Lady Karissa tells Lord Andrew Charles "Go on and head and have your installation as it is your Dukedom."

Lady Karissa steps into the Howard carriage and with Barbara, Lord Thomas and Lord Frederick on horseback the Howard carriage starts on its way.

Lord Andrew has asked Lord Richard Edward II to give Lady Karissa and Lady Elizabeth housing as she travels toward Pembroke Territory with Lady Elizabeth and their kin and of course Lord Richard Edward III is happy to do it.

As the Howard carriage travels Westbound to Wessex Territory. The carriage heads for Wessex Territory.

Lady Karissa with her entourage sees the streets lined with people and she asks the carriage to be stopped so she may meet the people.

Lady Karissa with Lord Richard William by her side walks and she meets and greets the people, and they give her gifts for Lady Elizabeth and one woman says "Lady Karissa. Our daughters are so happy that you have made sure that they are no longer excluded or to be replaced by a younger brother."

"I will never see that happen." Lady Karissa tells her "Daughters have the same rights to inherit their father's property and title as their sons without the fear of being replaced later on by a son."

"My Elizabeth in time will pave the way for all daughters to become their father's successor and receive the father's and mother's title and property." Lady Karissa exclaims.

"Lady Elizabeth is the first daughter to inherit three titles and properties in time she will become Duchess of Norfolk Territory, Marchioness of Pembroke and Viscountess." Lady Karissa exclaims, "I am sure in time I will have a second daughter, and she too will inherit a title and property."

"I will make sure women on Star Base 12 will receive what is rightfully theirs and I will also have abolished this archaic practice of pre-arranged marriages for our daughters and sons." Lady Karissa tells them.

Lord Frederick Willliam III looks at Lord Thomas William and he tells him "Lady Karissa is an instant hit with the people."

"Wait till I tell Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR in a letter that nowhere Lady Karissa travels she is well received and loved." Lord Frederick William III tells Lord Thomas William.

Finally, Lady Karissa climbs back into the carriage and they head west to Wessex Territory where at the border waiting is Lord Richard Edward II and Lady Suzanne.

Lady Suzanne is three months pregnant with their first child, the future Lord Richard Edward Howard III, who is due in April of 2276.

In time Lord Richard Edward Howard III and his second cousin, Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane, will marry in 2294 and give Lord Patrick William his first great-great-great-great-grandchild, Lady Karissa Ann Howard in May of 2295.

They are second cousins through two of the sons of Lord Charles Andrew Howard SR, the second son of Lord Frederick William Howard who is the eldest son of Lord Patrick William Howard.

Lord Richard Edward II greets the Howard carriage "Welcome to Wessex Territory, Lady Karissa, Lord Richard William Carey, Lord Thomas William Howard and Lord Frederick William Howard.

"How is my first cousin once removed, Lady Karissa?" Lord Richard Edward II asks.

"Lady Elizabeth is very well." Lady Karissa answers, "Why don't you go and see her?" and with that Lord Richard Edward II walks over to where Barbara is holding Lady Elizabeth " She is chip off the old Howard block." Lord Richard Edward II states "I bet my first cousin, Lord Andrew Charles and my uncle are two of the happiest people alive."
