It is known that while he was working in the archives of the archdiocese of Dbrnouk, Prof. Halembique encountered Prof. Aethelstan Gruber, lecturer in Balkan history at St. Andrew's University. Halembique's (winestained) diary records that the two had many long discussions regarding Syldavian history over meals in Drbnouk's smokey cantinas. We are lucky to have one page from his diary available to us where the two sketched out the dynastic history of Syldavia during the mid 17th to 18th century, with Halembique's notes in his native French and Gruber's annotations in English alongside in pencil. This page will prove quite useful as we head toward wargaming the campaigns of the 1730's and 40's.
