I say open the vote now. A little extra time to discuss things never hurt anything.
Also what does Godfrey's new Virtue mean for him?

Dark Creatures Stir
It is a dark time for the kingdom, but it will grow darker yet. The world of Honor is threatened; the Kingdom of Chivalry faces a green tide. And in the opening salvo, all shall be put at risk-- but none so much as these three of glory:
[] The Shadow Lady of Montfort Seeks a vengeance, far from the safety of her city.
[] The Betrayed Betrayer Comforts his wife.
[] The Mountain Wolf Surveys his turf.

Godfrey just drew Lance!Excalibur, and also risked having his soul eaten by Gork and/or Mork.
Virtue of Dutiful Purity: "We must be good men, honest men, virtuous men, dutiful men. Through us the land has its purity, and by us its fecundity; if it should fail, then we be damned forever anyway." (+3 Stewardship, +3 Piety, In any army where he travels with a character of equal or higher rank and/or if there are innocents abound, he can tank the blows that would strike them; can enter the Realm of the Silverspire without lighting on fire, much more resilient to Chaotic Corruption, shares Ward Save with dutiful soldiers, ward save improved to 5+/4+, do not need to pray to have blessing of the Lady)
Silver Lance of the Blessed: This lance, forged by Giles, burns with an awesome power; friends to Bretonnia find themselves nourished in its light, while those who dare sully honor or chivalry find their hearts in the very grip of terror, seeing its awesome might-- a might that never misses its mark when wielded by champions of the Lady. (Causes Terror in all foes Godfrey is in direct combat with, so long as Godfrey has Blessing of the Lady this weapon cannot miss, this weapon ignores all armor)

That's not too bad a Lance. What does it do for allies, per the underlined?
I think that's Morgyan, not Carol.

It would give them a ward save of their own-- but Dutiful Purity already does that, so I didn't write it for the Lance.

If you want info on what our sister's up to, this seems like the better option than the shadow lady since I'm pretty sure that's about our wife

What/Where is this exactly? I don't think I've heard of this place before.

The Silverspire is the Lady's home. As for where it is, no idea. I heard once that it's somewhere in the Empire but that's unconfirmed.

Where the Lady holds her court eternal, the Otherworld.
It is distinctly hazardous to all people who are not pure or powerful enough to sit in the Lady's radiance, which is most of humanity except the best knights, the damsels, and kids.

Oh hey, that's convenient timing orcs, thanks for proving our point!
...cause holy hell are we going to need those guys.
That's unfortunate. Hope that doesn't nix the whole thing.
@Voikirium Missing the action header.
Ex-post facto roll criticism is almost the stupidest post to make. Come on. We DD actions that generally need to succeed and the dice fall may where they may on the rest.
@Voikirium Vote here is misspelled.

Fixed, thank you both.
Also, as I mentioned, now would be a good time to ask me questions: Setting stuff (Hey Voi, what's that about Court Wizards/the kids who disappear?), Character Stuff (Hey Voi, what's the deal with Philip still being all jittery and self-hating after drinking of the Grail), or Misc (Hey Voi, what's Norsca like in Honor is All canon?).
...Not that I have any suggestions, or anything.

Hey Voi, what's the deal with Philip still being jittery and self-hating even after drinking from the Grail and experiencing its cleansing power?Fixed, thank you both.

What's Norsca like in HIACIA canon?
Is the Lance the last of "the Five" you were mentioning?
Butt attack?

I'm glad you asked! While the Quest cleanses much of a person's character flaws, the Lady has no desire to rule a court of sock-puppets and automatons-- she wants real, actual people; the best people, but people. Philip's self-loathing is buried too deep for even the Grail to cleanse it fully without basically lobotomizing him, and she doesn't play that game; and though it has wilted over years, starved of fuel, coming back home and getting hit with the one two punch of a specific memory ("No-one'll ever love you, brother, you're too damn stupid for it" said the asshole sister) and just a bit of shame from being away from home when his family really needed him mean it's flaring a bit.
As you might expect, the stealing of Asavar Kul's corpse, and then leaving Morathi's punishment to some of the most potent foes Chaos has, has not particularly made the Four happy. Their "Blessings" have practically dried up, by Norscan standards; Why, only a few thousand babies with three eyes were born, even! Into this den of fuckery, two Norscan factions, already extant, have bloomed to terrible fruition: one, basically Viking Puritans, have declared eternal war against the impure (Hah, irony) and a promise to slay a million souls until they have re-earned the favor of the Gods, while others, those less Chaos-y, have begun to offer their prayers and worship to Taal, Ulric, Rhya, and the other natural gods, and having begun warring massively against the Purists. Meanwhile, the entire rest of the world is just glad they aren't taking magic vikings up the ass every few months.
The non-Chaos Norscans are like, probably (99%) boned when the Four get over themselves, but they've made their peace with that, and are gonna go down fighting. Meanwhile, the Dark Elves on top of taking Elven, Dwarfen, Halfling (Don't ask. Or do, I guess), and Human raids, have had to deal with super-charged Hung, too. Malekith is Having a Bad Time.
...Kind of? I mean, I originally meant it to be the culmination, but then Shit Happened and Godfrey decided "yep, I'll just take that Hundred, please."
