A Bear Hibernates

[Kingdom_of_Curonia 31]

— To our most loyal subjects, and our friends abroad... —

 

His Royal Majesty the King of Curonia, Jarrack I of House Devereux, has abdicated. His life has been dedicated to public service, and he has served with vigor. Jarrack’s reign saw the rallying of esteemed and prestigious houses to the banner of his House, and in reward for their loyal service, he did reward them with land. These freshly landed vassals include House Draskovits, House Silversteed, House Ragnarsson, and many more.

 

In the absence of the King, His Royal Highness the Prince of Evreux, Alfred II Edgar of House Devereux, does therefore ascend the throne. The young King has studied for years under the tutelage of his family’s elders and the Royal Council, and will be crowned in the near future by His Exalted Holiness the Pontiff, Everard IV. However, the King is still young, having seen only a dozen winters in his lifetime.

 

— The King is gone. Long live the King. —

 

As a result of his youth, and being as he suffers the disability of non-age, the King shall be afforded a Regent. This Regent, in accordance with Curonian law, will govern the realm in place of His Royal Majesty for the time being. Furthermore, he will coordinate the young sovereign’s education, ensuring that he is prepared to begin his reign in earnest.

 

After thorough deliberations, the Royal Council has seen fit to appoint me as Regent. I look forward to guiding us through this unique time. Our people are strong, and historied, and mighty, but there are a number of emergent issues we must address. Unity and solidarity are the bedrock of any nation, and we must be paragons of those virtues. Let us, then, come together to better ourselves and our people. May this missive be a herald of prosperity and peace in our time.

 

May God bless Jarrack as he retires to the Arborian countryside, and may God grant young Alfred wisdom as he steps into the helm of leadership.

 

— Ave Curonia. —

“I am positive my sister’s son will lead Curon into a golden age.” Remarks Alasdair as he hears of his nephew’s departure “Ave Curon.”

“What an eventful time for  curon “Eric said as he sat down in the barracks of the royal army, before sighing as he said to himself “ave curon”

A lumbering Half-Olog would be sitting in the tavern picking his nose when the news filtered down to him. His only response? A disgustingly wet fart that caused many in the tavern to vacate immediately.

[Vaasek 224]

”Curonia delenda est.” A man remarked lowly, clad in armor older than himself, passed down as heirloom.

“The High Pontiff is one of the Exalted now?” a confused Canonist would ask.

[Archbishop 1784]

“Exalted? Everard IV?” asked Zachery.

[Mescaffier 6197]

Floré Draskovits nodded, scanning over the letter. “...Ave Curonia.”
