I know that most of you despises Karlinges and I admit that border gore isn't a nice thing...however, my intention is, if not to cancel, at least to reduce it. My AAR is based on Louis IV, one of the last of Karlings.
I tried my best in order to give to traits life and create a personality. I also love the little Louis because he has a difficult job ahead and, being a diligent person, I love jobs.
Also I made a fast "three scenes" presentation, in order to present the characters so I am sorry if it seems very "drafty".

“Mother…” Louis looked at his mother, who gave him a sweet smile: he looked so much as his father, with his curly red hair and the thoughtful sight “How can I become a good king like my father?”
“Oh, sweet Luis,...your father was a good and just person, but most important he was someone who had a strong faith in God.”
“Then why he got betrayed…? It was like with Jesus Christ?” Louis looked sad “Jesus didn’t love him?”
The woman hugged the son and then sat with him on a bench, in the garden
“Jesus got betrayed, my love. Jesus was a good person, but not everyone is…”
“So we must punish bad people!” raised up Louis “and we must punish all those who rebel and can hurt again Jesus, as...as...those black moors in Guascony!”
Eadgifu chuckled benevolently and caressed his son’s hair “But most important, my love, you must always behave with kindness and humility, and do to others as they do to you”
“I’ll be a good christian, I promise, mother!” smiled the child
The day after, it was the first meeting with the council. He first had the demands of become a councilor examined. Everything went well...until they bumped in Hugues Capet.
Louis was scared by that bald and aggressive man, who always bragged how he was older than him and always gave him lectures about government.
So he was eager to allow him in the council.
Only, there seemed to not be any place for him. He got removed by Eadgifu, who stated clearly “In this council we not measure words but facts” and so he was replaced by the meeker Raymond.
Louis got scared when Hugues said, with anger “I will not loose my calm...but God will judge you all. Remember what you did to me…”. Then stormed out in a rage.
This memories haunted Louis when he got crowned. For a moment rage wrinkled his brows and fear made his face pale...but it was just a moment. He started to say an old verse from the Holy Bible about wrath and fear...and he calmed down. He turned around and the nobles shouted “LONG LIVE THE KING!”
