Tsuyose 3285 Share Posted August 29, 2017 The Settlement Act, 1626 Issued and Confirmed by His Imperial Majesty, Peter II Sigismund of the Holy Orenian Empire, 11th of The Amber Cold, 1626. TO OUR BELOVED SUBJECTS, It is imperative to note the incapability of d’Amaury’s perseverance in our time of political turmoil, wherein the only capable heir to succeed the Archduchy of Lorraine is absent from our realm. Therefore, the Closed Council of the Holy Orenian Empire, and the respective vassals of the Archduchy of Lorraine have convened to discuss matters of great import. With nary a d’Amaury present, the Crown, and the Archduchy of Lorraine’s vassals have henceforth come to an agreement. His Majesty, Otto II has been consulted in this most unfortunate time; the Archduchy of Lorraine is to henceforth be disbanded, with the ducal house of d’Amaury deemed absent from our realm. It is by this missive, that the Crown does dissolve the Archduchy of Lorraine, and henceforth declares the vast fields to be officially recognised as the Crownlands. For a progressive Imperium, for our prosperity, and for our future. The Settlement Act I. The Archduchy of Lorraine’s vassalage will attend court by the 11th of The Amber Cold, 1628 to re-affirm their fealty to their new liege lord, His Imperial Majesty, Peter II Sigismund; therein becoming vassals of the Crownlands. II. The Archduchy of Lorraine’s lands will henceforth be ceded to the Crownlands; its economic, military, and state affairs will inherently accompany this missive. III. The Archduchy of Lorraine will henceforth be dissolved and its lands subtracted into the Crownlands, therefore, the once Archduchy will be known as a participating factor of the Crownlands; the Crownlands. VI. Should the House of d’Amaury resurface with the intent to reclaim their once noble prestige with suitable backing, then the Crown may potentially see it fit to bequeath onto their once noble peerage the entitlement of Archduke. IN NOMINE DEI, His Imperial Majesty, Peter II Sigismund of the House of Horen, by the Grace of God, Holy Orenian Emperor and rightful Emperor of Aeldin, Forever August, Apostolic King of Oren, Renatus, Salvus, Seventis, Vandoria, Savoy, Mardon, and the Westerlands, Duke of the Crownlands, Cascadia, Avar, Frederica, Blackmarsh, and Marna, Count of Auguston, Alamar, Frederica, Krajia, Thesmer, Thelen, Lorath, and Cantal, Baron of Darkwood and Gravelhold, Defender of the Canonist Faith, Supreme Protector of Mankind, Master of the Lions of Man, etcetera. His Majesty, King Otto II of Hanseti and Ruska, the Ever Loyal Subject of His Imperial Majesty, Grand Hetman of the Army, Prince of Dules, Lahy, Sorbesborg and Slesvik, Regent of Pruvia, Grand Duke of Vanderfell, Duke of Akovia, Krajia and Aldersburg, Margrave of Rothswald and Adria, Count of Karikhov, Baranya, Kavat, Karovia, Torun, and Kaunas, Viscount of Alamar, Baron of Vsenk, Valwyk, Rostig, Esenstadt and Kralta, Lord of the Westfolk, Protector of the Highlanders, etcetera. His Grace, Callan of the House of Gromach, Duke of Rosgar, Margrave of Ponce, Count of Cleves, Chambery, Baron of Leeuwenhof, Nicea, Cyning of the Daelish, and the Lord High Admiral of the Holy Orenian Empire. Lord Pepin Ashford de Bar, Count of Bar, and the Lord High Chamberlain of the Holy Orenian Empire. Lord Ian of the House of Highwind, Baron of Ostwick.

Holyland 3650 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Wilfred is rather sad that he has lost all this time within Lorraine now that it has been disbanded, and his hard work and rise to former knighthood would never be recognised as truthful, now, after all his loyalty to house d'Amaury.

NotEvilAtAll 10906 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Madeline Applebrook would almost wonder if the halflings would have to attend this silliness, but all her wonderings would be swept away by a few puffs of pipeweed and a tankard of Applebrook Porter.

Marquesa_ 298 Share Posted August 29, 2017 The granddaughter of Augustus d'Amaury and the daughter of King John of Lotharingia, Queen-Consort Eleanor of Hanseti-Ruska read over this document with squinted eyes and pursed lips prior to going to shake her head so fervently that almost all of the ringlets in her hair came undone, she then grasped the right side of her gown with her right hand in order for her to stand up from her seat abruptly with ease - the woman then stifled a nervous chuckle while crumpling up the piece of paper in her left hand before tossing it at the fireplace as she mumbled sordid words in Auverginian. Eleanor Barbanov née d'Amaury then shifted on her heel so that she may march through the open door that lead to her bedchamber with an expression that can only be interpreted as one of extreme anger painted on her visage.

MunaZaldrizoti 8037 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Victoria Horen-Vientos would read the parchment, letting out a breath in both shock and relief. "My mother was right...the misrule of House d'Amaury has finally come to an end. She can be at peace, now." She'd throw the paper into the burning hearth, bringing her gaze upward, almost speaking into the Seven Skies itself. "I wish you were here..." The Ascended would whisper, a tear falling from her cheek. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
