The assassin is after me, and the palace guards are in on it! I ask not much of you, only a days rest and council.

No, say that we are chasing after the assassin to avenge our father's death, and we believe the amazon may be in this very city right now. are hot on the trail of the amazon. We need men and gear and horses to properly pursue her.

(Changed it, because, while what we just did and what we would have done was and would be very Chaotic, it wouldn't be very Good, since we already caused one seemingly innocent man to die, and we might cause many more deaths of Good people by simply stirring up panic. This new action will allow us to lead a wild goose chase and do whatever the flip we want on the Duke's dime.)

This, but as a proper cover story for why we, the Crown Prince, have come to visit on our own and in a disheveled state, explain that the Amazonian assassins also kidnapped us for later negotiations with our kingdom and we only recently managed to escape them and made way for the Duke's lands.

"I am pursuing the Amazon Assassin to avenge my father's death," you expain - slowly, cautiously, daring not incite the beard to launch the table at you. "She had captured me, kidnapping me to use as a bargaining chip in negotiations, but we managed to escape. I've stayed hot on her trail, but I'll need men, equipment, and horses to pursue her properly."

"No need for that, my boy," the Duke answers. "My army will hunt the countryside for them... and mobilize for war on the Amazon homeland! The death of our King cannot go unanswered!"

"THat may be Hasty. I have reason to believe that the Amazons behind the assasination and our kidnapping were part of a radical Fringe group bent on war. Don't give them what they want.

It's probably important to note that there isn't actually an amazon country.

Oh really? fine let's wipe out a couple tribes and pin the blame on them. I was just worried about the politics of starting a war under completely spurious circumstances.

Hell we could even become a war hero. That would make the succession So much easier

Also, causing a war by blaming some nonexistent country for killing our king who we really killed should get us many levels in chaos.

This.

Also, causing a war by blaming some nonexistent country for killing our king who we really killed should get us many levels in chaos.

It should also grant us some Order points since we're doing this to become accepted by the people and become their lord(which really, we already are.)

Wait, if we have a French bar, and an Irish bar, how come we don't have an English/Scottish/British bar?

We haven't gained a level in that class yet.  I assume in this world, nationalities function as classes.

I could go and lecture you about history, but I'm just wondering why we have french and irish levels, while we, being english/british, don't have a level in english/british. We are British, right?

"While that is a good plan, M'lord, and I hope it succeeds, I'm afraid invading the Amazonian homeland may not go so well if you don't know where it is. So, while your men wander around the countryside hoping to stumble upon Amazons, I'll head in the last known direction of my former kidnapper and try to track her down. If you provide me with men, horses, and equipment, I might be able to capture her alive and interrogate her about the location of her homeland. Hell, I might do fine if you just gave me enough coin to hire some random drunks from a tavern, buy some horse and equipment, and pay for living and other expenses accrued during our search."
