The available merchants were called to the Westfield sitting room, where the
guild's current Grand Magnate stood next to a young Tubori lad. Attention
was sharply called for, and the Vandagan made the announcement simple.

"Merchants of Lithmore, you've all done well for yourselves - despite our
difficulties of late with filling leadership roles, and for that you should
be commended. That being said, those difficulties are now over." With a nod,
he sidelonged a look in the direction of the Toburi, allowing a moment for
the implication to sink in. "As of this moment," he continued, "Lithmore has
its first Magnate since the unfortunate and abrupt departure of the lady Rana
de Mesira. Merchants of Lithmore, I give to you Master Yeto le Coblek. He
will guide Lithmore through what remains of these political uncertainties.
He has my full confidence, and in time I'm certain he will gain yours. Treat
his position with the same respect you've shown mine, and together as apart,
we will all do better."

There was a low key applause section near the back of the smallish crowd,
before everyone went back about their business. For their part, the Vandagan
and Tubori retired to their respective office space, presumedly to conduct
the business of business and politics.

Following the arrest of Roland ab Beaufort at his coronation ceremony, Grand
Inquisitor Farra dul Baildana was said to have a long discussion with
Cardinal Emmierich ab Braye. It is unknown what the pair discussed, but the
Cardinal conveyed the announcement afterward that the former countess will be
retiring from her position as Grand Inquisitor, leaving the Order and
returning to Hevstina. The Cardinal also thanked her for her service and
indicated that further announcements would be expected regarding the
challenger to Queen Celeste's throne. Beaufort, however, would be released
on Braye's orders, satisfied that the matter is not currently a religious
one.

Word may or may not have yet reached the capitol, leaving time for the
authorities there to act.

In subject of: The Baronial Council Called
Date : Fri Jun 22 02:19:37 2018
Expires : Wed Mar 17 02:19:59 2021
To : all
_________________________________________________________________________
With two crowned monarchs each claiming the rule of Lithmore, many in the
kingdom have been fearing war. Those worries have been somewhat alleviated,
however, by an announcement that Queen Celeste ab Samael and King Roland ab
Beaufort-Harmon have agreed to call the Baronial Council to resolve the
matter. Titled nobles will be given until the spring to make their way to
the capital or to send their votes as to the rightful monarch. Although the
council is normally composed of the nobles of the Lithmorran lands, an
exception has been made to include the duchies, who have agreed to peaceably
abide by its decision with that concession. Though many of the nobility have
their leanings already, most are expected to still be in consideration and
looking closely at the situation leading up to the council vote.

OOC: All NPC-run domains have had initial leanings randomly generated, and
modifiers applied based on player actions. Staff will continue to take
account of plots until the end of voting and add more modifiers. As part of
a staff-run header plot, these actions will cost no QP, though appropriate IC
costs in money, goods, influence and time will still be considered, based on
the actions. Player nobles will be able to submit their own votes on behalf
of themselves or their titled family members. On July 22nd 2018 staff will
tally player and NPC votes and announce the IC results.

We will be providing details on how results will be counted soon, in another
post.

In subject of: Nobles Declare For Their Hopeful Monarchs

Expires : Fri Mar 19 13:38:08 2021

_________________________________________________________________________
With the announcement of the Baronial Council to determine the rightful
monarch, the nobility across the kingdom have begun to set into motion their
plans to travel to the capital or to send representatives in their place.

Already, several domains have declared that they intend to vote for their
preferred choice, perhaps in order to sway others to their point of view,
though many more maintain their neutrality while they consider.

Unsurprisingly, none in Vavard have come out in support of Celeste, but
several domains in Lithmore have: Awan Ride, Eastgale, Mont Innes, and
Maides. Both Farin and Tubor have several lands speaking for each; Musgat,
Vorseethe, Maivenwoods, Redcliffs and Saltline have all declared for
Celeste.

Roland has strong support in Vavard; Acrestinosa, Dusollini, Lower Gerdain,
Hevstina and Nimrock have all declared for him, though the others perhaps
wait to see if there may be a greater advantage later on. Most of Vandago
has remained more neutral for the time being, but Engvist and Mozenk, both
Kirulean-facing lands, have declared for Roland. In Farin and Tubor, it is
Bastion, Levdis, Margyarna, Trosier, Baigmantown, Sinjiara, Strongjaw and
Tingre's Rest that have announced their intent towards him. The Lithmorran
domains of Amhurst, Endridge, Perche, Sunset, Volsuan and, of course, his own
Asglen have also declared themselves in support of Roland's rule.

Votes are not yet cast, so, of course, these alliances can still change, but
those across the kingdom are taking careful note of these declarations.

A hustle and bustle can be described by travelers finding themselves upon the
North road nearing the Knights Keep. A chorus of steel and activity can be
heard as the Knights appear to be shoring up the defenses of their castle,
the guard apparently being doubled with extra fortifications being set into
place by teams of overworked pages. They bear grim expressions, befitting
the current climate of the ongoing crisis. Any who approach the walls or
skirt past the castle, would notice the trained eyes of archers observing
their step.

Personal accounts emptied and tethers to the city having long been since cut
free, the taverns, Theatre, and streets are absent a Tubori Troubadour's
stories and songs of late. Questions about the area have placed Malaya
Navarro as slipping out of the western gates sometime early on a clear
morning, bundled atop a donkey and headed out of sight.

After many weeks of discussion, the family of Beaman and Laliene ab Hoffman
quietly closed the shop doors one last time, locked their home and got in a
wagon drawn by their trusty mule and horse. It isn't sure why the small
family of five decided to leave. What is known is that the pair seemed truly
happy to start their new adventure and sad to leave their old friends behind.

_________________________________________________________________________
It is on a snowy Januarius morning after Mass that the Church Square opens
itself to an announcement from the Grand Inquisitor. Replacing the Priest at
the altar is a tall, willowy woman with dark hair and the neatly prepared
uniform of an Inquisitor - crimson robes and skirts of layered Vandagan wool,
perfect for the harsh season. Her approach to the belies her previous
absence from it, as though she were no stranger to speaking from it.

"My thanks to Father von Neuwald, first off, for that riveting sermon. And
now to you all, Lithmore, for your perseverance. The kingdom has endured
much over these years, and while we all lament the early retirement of Lady
dul Baildana, we must somehow find the will to continue stepping forward
against hardship."

"My background is primarily one in academia and the field, for my holier
duties. Baildana fortunately had the habit of training up, and my fellow
city leaders have the grace and expertise to have been of great help to my
first week in the position. It is this spirit of cooperation at the top that
gives me hope we will see peaceful times again."

"I would like to extend the same welcome and cooperation to the city. The
Order can help Lithmore best when its people are open with us. Let us not be
strangers, fending for ourselves and families first; let us be a society,
cohesive and strong, so that we might not rip ourselves asunder when hard
times face us."

"To those aspiring to the Clergy or the Knights, now is the time to accept
that calling; just know that there is a place for you here, layperson or not.
It is an honor to help each of you find it, and to serve the Order as Grand
Inquisitor."

For those who pay attention to the patrol of the Reeves, it's seen that the
patrol pattern has changed. As an off hand comment, someone's mentioned one
time at the local tavern that there seemed to be times the Crossroads didn't
even have a Reeve there. While the patrols still went through the area, it
seems some change has occurred to make that space open.

Meanwhile, the guards at the North, East and West gate are all looking to be
reinforced, if pressed, the men state that they're to be on alert for any
suspicious items coming in on the trade routes and the goods entering the
city are more throughly searched with the extra manpower there.

_________________________________________________________________________
Upon a cool, quiet morning in Februarius, 378, Rothgar Astartes mounted his
horse, Vigilance, and started out for the Duchy of Vavard, in order to tend
to the lands that he'd since married into. Citing the requirement of all
strong family men to bring honour and prosperity to their Houses, he stated
that he did not know when - or, indeed, if - he would return to the City of
Lithmore, stating that "The City has little requirement of men like me, any
longer."

Serving for many years as Inquisitor, Knight, and as many other titles within
the City, Rothgar Astartes leaves behind his wife and daughter, Prime Medicus
Empena and Citizen Ariel Astartes, respectively.
