Letter to the Royal Duma: ON THE PRESERVATION OF THE QUEENS KRUSAE ZWY KONGZEM VA BIRODEO HERZENAV AG ELDERVIK, In the tapestry of our nation's history, each thread is woven with the names and deeds of Kings who have guided us through the ages. Yet, as we trace this illustrious lineage, we must acknowledge a glaring omission: the absence of our revered Queen Consorts from the Haurul Caezk. It is a gap that not only mars the completeness of our historical record but also risks consigning these remarkable women to the shadows of obscurity. We ask the Royal Duma to debate the following: The Addition of Queen Consorts to The Haurul Caezk: To rectify this historical oversight, we suggest the Crown enshrine the names and legacies of our queen consorts within the pages of the Haurul Caezk. These noble women, though not crowned sovereigns in their own right, have stood steadfastly by the side of their royal spouses, offering counsel, support, and unwavering devotion to the realm. By immortalising their names alongside those of our kings, we pay homage to their enduring influence and commemorate their invaluable contributions to the fabric of our society. Let us not allow the passage of time to diminish their rightful place in history, but instead, let us ensure that they are remembered and revered for generations to come. Let us strive for a future where the names of our monarchs are spoken with reverence and respect, and the legacies of our Queen Consorts are celebrated alongside that of their royal counterparts. In honouring the past, we ensure a legacy worthy of emulation for generations yet unborn. IV JOVEO MAAN, HER ROYAL MAJESTY, Nataliya of Ghaestenwald, Queen-Consort of Hanseti and Ruska, Grand Hetman of the Army, Hochmeister of the Order of the Crow, Princess-Consort of Bihar, Dules, Lahy, Muldav, Solvesborg, Slesvik and Ulgaard, Duchess-Consort of Carnatia and Vanaheim, Margravine-Consort of Korstadt, Rothswald, and Vasiland, Countess-Consort of Alban, Alimar, Baranya, Graiswald, Karikhov, Karovia, Kaunas, Kavat, Kovachgrad, Kvasz, Markev, Nenzing, Torun, Toruv, Valdev, and Werdenburg, Viscountess-Consort of Varna, Baroness-Consort of Esenstadt, Kraken’s Watch, Kralta, Krepost, Lorentz, Rytsburg, and Astfield, Lady of the Westfolk, Protector and Lady of the Highlanders, etcetera.

The Portoregne Book Drive Writing, Mina and More [May 27th - June 2nd] For as long as I can remember, I have been enthralled with the written word. Books on stories, skills, history, creatures- the lot. But my truest dream has been to encourage others to write and to share their love and understanding and knowledge. The knowledge retained by the people of Aevos is extensive, such can be seen by the almost 100 books within the San Adriano library alone. One can only imagine what knowledge remains unwritten, what wisdom remains unpenned. And so, I extend to the people of Balian and any guests along the way to partake in a week long drive for newly written content. A stall is to be set within the city of Portoregne which will offer stationary for purchase. Equally, it will offer a place to safely deposit written work. For every new* book written, a price of fifteen mina will be paid to the author- assuming the quality is acceptable**. This will act as an entry to an overall competition in which the top three books will be awarded prizes. *Books deemed as ‘new’ are either books dated with the current date, or a date within the last four saint weeks. Equally, San Adriano keeps a list of books within their library, and should the given book not be within that list, that will equally suffice. **Book quality and standards will be decided by the organizer. Any books given that are considered ‘low quality’ will be retained, but neither paid nor entered into the overall competition. Signed, The Most Honorable, Cosima Victoria Temesch Countess of Martiel, Viscountess of San Adriano and author of the Portoregne Periodical

Illivirans stay winning. omw to make a sea elf

Coastal Tiva Coastal Tiva is a derivative from the mali’ame tradition of ‘The Language of Tiva’, a collection of floral symbolism used in worship, self-identification, and physical guidance. Although Coastal Tiva subscribes itself to the same three pillars of Aspectism, guidance, and identity as its predecessor, practitioners utilize the natural elements found along coastlines and shallow waters rather than woodland flora; furthermore, Illivirans, credited to have first introduced the coastal variant, have chosen to recognize the Duarchy as well as the Aspects. ___________________________________________ 🐚 ___________________________________________ Art by Siua Faith Honoring the Aspects is deeply rooted in Mali'ame culture and this custom finds resonance within Coastal Tiva, where the traditions devoted to the Aspects are observed with the same reverence as they have been for generations. While their customs may vary, Illivirans, too, hold a deep appreciation for the Aspects – at the same time, they embody the symbolic significances of the Duarchy, which forms an integral part of their cultural identity and collective consciousness. As such, they have distinct and different Tiva for The Mother, The Father, Thalassa, and Faunus. Cernunnos Shark Teeth Shark teeth symbolize power, resilience, and precision. They represent a strong and determined personality, capable of facing challenges head-on with fearless aggression and unwavering focus. Shark teeth may also signify protection and the primal instincts necessary for survival, embodying the raw and ancient wisdom of The Horned God’s enduring forces. Cerridwen Sand Dollar The sand dollar symbolizes tranquility, spirituality, and inner reflection. It represents a calm and peaceful personality, attuned to the interconnectedness of all living beings. Sand dollars may also signify renewal and the cyclical nature of life, embodying a sense of mindfulness and the serene beauty found in The Green Lady’s spiritual contemplation. The Third Unknown Whispers of The Third may be heard blowing off the cool night air, but only the truly dedicated might hope translate these messages into the physical language written here. Thalassa Mother-of-Pearl Mother-of-pearl, the iridescent inner layer of certain mollusk shells, is often linked to femininity and power. Through their luminous qualities they represent the nurturing and protective qualities of the divine feminine, as well as the mysteries of the ocean. Faunus Driftwood Driftwood, weathered pieces of wood washed ashore by the tides and waves, represent the cyclical nature of life and the connection to both the land and the sea. Mirroring Thalassa’s Pearl, driftwood also represents the protectiveness and stability of the divine masculine. ___________________________________________ 🦀 ___________________________________________ Art by Siua Guidance The Language of Tiva was first created with the intention of guiding elvenkind along their journeys: flowers intertwined together symbolize directions and signs within the woods that only those straying mali might interpret. Similarly, anchored rings of floating driftwood give the base to shells, flora, and other elements which report the paths ahead of any sailor who knows the language: pearls and sand dollars nestled into a piece of driftwood tells of a nearby place of worship for the Duarchy, where the binding of oyster and conch shells details a concealed area in need of further exploration. ⠀𓂃⠀⠀˖⠀𓇼⠀˖⠀⠀𓂃⠀ Clam Shell Safe Places The clamshell symbolizes protection, stability, and practicality. They represent a nurturing and supportive presence, as well as a down-to-earth approach to life. They may also signify resilience and the importance of finding security in one's environment. Seawater Pearl Place of Worship The seawater pearl symbolizes peace, spirituality, and inner reflection. They symbolize tranquility, mindfulness, and the interconnectedness of all living beings. Sea Kelp Dangerous or Unwelcome Places Kelp may be used to symbolize invasive tendencies, suffocating environments, and the overwhelming force of unchecked growth. While essential to marine ecosystems, kelp exhibits negative traits when it overgrows and dominates underwater habitats that lead to imbalances in the marine ecosystem. Oyster Shell Hidden Places The oyster shell symbolizes wisdom, adaptation, and hidden truths. They represent insight gained through experience and introspection, things which may be shrouded to the naked eye, and the power of change through adversity and pressure. ___________________________________________ 🦪 ___________________________________________ Art by Siua Identity Through the traditional use of inder’tayna, it is important for one to be able to assign personal characteristics of oneself or another to represent them on their cord. These shells are also used in gifts or decor. ⠀𓂃⠀⠀˖⠀𓇼⠀˖⠀⠀𓂃⠀ Conch Shell The conch shell symbolizes courage, leadership, and the ability to navigate challenges with confidence. It symbolizes the adventurous spirit and the willingness to explore new horizons. Nautilus Shell The nautilus shell represents wisdom, introspection, and adaptability. It symbolizes the journey of self-discovery and growth and the ability to find harmony amidst change. Cowrie Shell The cowrie shell is associated with abundance, fertility, and protection. It symbolizes nurturing qualities and maternal instincts. It may also represent vitality. Scallop Shell The scallop shell symbolizes grace, harmony, and hospitality. It symbolizes a welcoming and inclusive personality, as well as a balanced approach to life. It may also signify spiritual pilgrimage or a journey of self-discovery. Limpet Shell Limpet shells cling tightly to rocks, symbolizing perseverance and resilience in the face of adversity. They symbolize strength and determination, as well as the ability to adapt to challenging environments. Abalone Shell Abalone shells shimmer with iridescent colors, representing tranquility and inner peace. They symbolize protection and emotional healing, as well as the beauty that emerges from life's challenges and transformations. Cockle Shell Cockle shells are often found in clusters, symbolizing social connections and camaraderie. They represent joy, spontaneity, and the importance of laughter in life's journey. Conus Shell Conus shells are known for their venomous properties and striking patterns. They symbolize protection and defense, as well as the enigmatic allure of the unknown. Tiger Cowrie Shell Tiger cowrie shells feature bold patterns reminiscent of a tiger's stripes, symbolizing strength and regal beauty. They represent protection and guardianship, as well as the power of intuition and inner strength. Tulip Shell Tulip shells showcase graceful curves and delicate patterns, symbolizing elegance and refinement. They represent beauty in simplicity and the appreciation of life's finer details. Helmet Shell Helmet shells have a sturdy, protective structure, symbolizing resilience and strength in the face of adversity. They represent fortitude and perseverance, as well as the importance of maintaining a strong sense of self. Turban Shell Turban shells exhibit vibrant colors and intricate spirals, symbolizing creativity and adaptability. They represent the ever-changing nature of life and the importance of embracing diversity and individuality. Periwinkle Shell Periwinkle shells are small but resilient, symbolizing determination and perseverance. They represent the power of persistence and the ability to overcome obstacles through sheer willpower. ___________________________________________ 🌺 ___________________________________________ Art by tgrt
