In subject of: Return of the Grand Magnate
Date : Mon Jun 6 23:13:35 2016
Expires : Sat Mar 2 22:13:49 2019
To : all
_________________________________________________________________________
The position of Grand Magnate has long been left unfilled - despite Dmitri
von Kozlov stepping into the position of Magnate of Lithmore, the guild as a
whole was left without formal leadership for quite some time. However, this
period of vacancy has come to an end: after taking the time to make a full
recovery from the illness that had him unable to perform his duties, Galen
Fairweather has stepped back into the office of the Grand Magnate and once
again has taken command of the Merchants Guild.

Having suffered an illness suspected to be compounded by stress, the Grand
Magnate will reportedly be managing his workload more efficiently, focusing
more of his efforts on the management of the Guild. Because of this, it's
expected that his clothing and accessory shop, the Vellum & Velvet, will be
closing its doors.

Many were under the assumption that Fairweather was relieved to be free of
the burden of leadership, but many others have noted him being eager to
resume his duties. Whether or not the Grand Magnate underwent a change of
heart during his recovery, and what might have spurred this change if so, can
only be speculated.

_________________________________________________________________________
Franco le Martine, friend and guard of doctor Silrie Ryden, is quietly
spreading the word among her friends. He is holding a Tubori en passent for
her seventeenth birthday, and as hard as they are all attempting to keep it
quiet, ripples of the news are spreading beyond that close-knit circle.
Whispers of it being a surprise are coupled with excited grins from some,
scoffs from others, and loudly-voiced opinions that savages don't need any
form of acknowledgement whatsoever from yet more. Whether the lass is loved
or hated, the proverbial cat is out of the bag, and many are making plans to
attend, if only for the free food and drink. The party is to be held on
Maius 21, 370, and all, apparently, are welcome.

OOC: The IC date is a converttime approximation. The OOC date is Saturday,
June 25, after the OOC Chat.

Some mild combat, though it's not the focus of the story.

In subject of: A New Poet Knight Is Selected!
Date : Sun Jun 19 02:09:47 2016
Expires : Fri Mar 15 02:09:59 2019
To : All
_________________________________________________________________________
Another boisterous night in the globe proved to be one that left quite an
impact in its wake. Troubadours frustrated with their effervescent Laudate
and the last long months lived without a serving Poet Knight saw matters
drawn towards a crescendo... It is heard that from among the frolicking
performers one was named to lead, the creme de la creme, to lead them towards
greatness once more.

Whispers in the streets call for one Tanim Brentwood to step forward, to lay
himself down before the Hollow Globe as the most recent offering to be
tested. Initial confusion met with the first congratulations offered the
young man's way: onlookers claim to have heard him muttering about cruel
japes, and how his surname does not even go well with an 'op' set before
it.

Despite the curious manner of Tanim's selection, word has spread like
wildfire: A new Poet Knight is in town, and his name is Tanim op Brentwood.

Expires : Mon Mar 18 00:46:11 2019
To : All
_________________________________________________________________________
A buzz went though the Madison hospital that the Prime Medicus Shaylei de
Roldan has chosen an Epion. The choice apparently came with some thought and
more than one meeting with various alternatives. Ultimately, the position
was offered to Tobius le Darrow, who has been a member of the guild for some
time.

Le Darrow was heard commenting that while he will miss working in the Reeves,
he looks forward to the challenge of fully investing himself in the hospital

After a short tenure as Earl Marshall, the Dame Bess ab Thorm decided that
the post was not for her liking and stepped down to return to Vees.

In subject of: Toroni de Stonewall
Date : Wed Jun 22 07:56:55 2016
Expires : Mon Mar 18 07:57:18 2019
To : All
_________________________________________________________________________
After the rumored resignation of Grand Inquisitor Iria Loden, the High Synod
met once more. After much deliberation over many hours, Toroni de
Stonewall's name came to the fore.

He was confirmed, then announced as the next Grand Inquisitor of Lithmore.
His ruthless stance against magic and heretics and willingness to take the
fight to them, as well as his service to the Order, swayed the minds of the
many Archbishops and Cardinals in attendance.

When Stonewall was asked for a statement, all he said was, "While things have
been unsettled, the citizens and those faithful to the Lord have nothing to
fear... Those found to be unfaithful, will come to know the Lord." He then
turned and left the steps, proceeding to enter the church proper.

In subject of: New Earl Marshall: Ellette ab Mercia
Date : Thu Jun 23 10:00:56 2016
Expires : Tue Mar 19 10:01:22 2019
To : all
_________________________________________________________________________
After the previous Earl Marshall Bess ab Thorm stepped down and left lithmore
a new knight had to be selected to fill the position. There were many talks
but after quite some time a decision was reached, a decision involving a
rather surprising candidate choice.

Although only recently returned from Farin, Ellette ab Mercia was deemed to
be the best choice for the role out of the considered candidates. In her
small time back in Lithmore she had already well integrated herself back
within the knights and managed to quickly return to the expected tasks and
duties. This determination and initiative made her an ideal candidate and
combined with excellent reports of her from her time in Farin she was chosen
as the new Earl Marshal.

When asked for a comment Ellette simple said that she wished to do her best
to fill the role and be an Earl Marshall that not only the Order but also all
of Lithmore could be proud of. She is eager to settle into the role and
quickly sort out any overdue business.

In subject of: The Fate of Eastgale
Date : Fri Jun 24 23:58:09 2016
Expires : Wed Mar 20 23:58:09 2019
To : all
_________________________________________________________________________
It is an unfortunate circumstance that due to the depravities of the White
Flame, the barony of Eastgale has been left without lord or heir to guide her
people to the safety and prosperity that is the right of the common folk in
Dav's holy realm. As is the holy duty of the Crown, we must see these lands
duly administered by the members of the noble ranks of Lithmore. In honor of
her service to the Crown as Seneschal and High Steward of Lithmore, We choose
to appoint Margaux le Rousselle to these lands and invest her as hereditary
Baroness of Eastgale.

In so doing, Lady Margaux agrees to cede all personal rights to the Barony of
Crestley and the regency of said land. Further, on the matter of Crestley,
Lady Margaux also agrees to cede, on behalf of her trueborn daughter Voletta
le Rousselle, all right to inherit Crestley through her father, the late
Ferled le Rousselle.

The Lady Margaux and the Crown signed the document accepting the concurrent
installation of the Lady and her daughter as Baroness and Heir of Eastgale
respectively, and also accepting the ceded rights to Crestley, on Maius 15,
370.
