Special Mentions & Honoured Figures I. Important Announcements Leuvens Return Thanks to the Late Princess of Rubern, Helane Stiboricz, the area that used to be named Rubern, has been returned to the hands of the Empire, and the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska. It is a joyous occasion as the final hostile state from the AIS and the everlasting war has been returned to its rightful place, and peace has come at last. II. The Scyfling Invasion The Death of Princess Amelya During an ambush by the Scyflings in 326 ES [1773], the Princess Amelya Barbanov was fatally wounded before she fell into the river, and her body floated to rest in the Lake Milena. The Late Princess was a bright and fiery woman, with much promise to her life, and she will be mourned by many. May she rest in peace in the seven skies. The Death of Prince Godfric Alimar Within the same ambush of 326 ES [1773], The Red Prince of Muldav, Godfric Alimar, came face to face with Bralt himself, where he and Sir Lauritz Christiansen battled the Scyfling War Leader. The Red Prince was defeated by Bralt, and is now succeeded by his son, Prince Josef Audemar. May he rest in peace in the seven skies. Death of Count Konstantin II Ruthern The Late Count of Metterden, Konstantin II, went searching for his stolen son, Aleksandr Leopold var Ruthern. He never found his son, however. My father's life ended in a tragic way as he was stabbed in the back by the scyflings, and left for dead in an abandoned camp, in 326 ES [1773]. The late count of Metterden leaves behind three daughters, myself, Elizaveta, and Irene vas Ruthern. May he rest in peace in the seven skies. III. Royal and Court Announcements Birth of the Royal Twins 326 ES, the 9th and 10th of Joma and Umund [1993, The Deep Cold/Sigismunds End], Stefan Wilfriche, and Aleksandr Hieromar, were born, the former near end of the night of the 9th, and Aleksandr soon after on the 10th, sharing a birthday with his father, King Sigismund II. The two Princes being the third and fourth royal child, are currently in good health and growing quickly. Betrothal of a Ruthern My youngest sister, Irene Cecilia vas Ruthern, has hereby been betrothed to the Imperial Prince, John Charles Novellen, eldest son to HIH Princess Imperial Anne Augusta, and HIH, Joseph Clement. The wedding has been scheduled for Tov and Yermey, 329 ES [Suns Smile, 1776]. The wedding will be preceded by a festival, ball, and tournament in the months prior, and succeeded by a tour of the Empire, and a Feast within Hanseti-Ruska on Msitza and Dargund, 329 ES [The Amber Cold, 1776]. IV. Military Updates, and Activities The Mammoth Hunt Led by Sir Demetrius var Ruthern, the HRA went out to investigate a missing expedition from a northern village. The groups went out onto the ocean ice where they found those missing, along with multiple gigantic mammoths. The creatures, attacking the villagers, were vanquished by the HRA, coming home victorious. War Games with the ISA Once again having a practive skirmish and war games with the Imperial State Army, the HRA went to a field outside of Kaedrin to test their strength against the ISA. The games overall were considered a success to aid in the training of newer HRA soldiers. Published Honours and Medals https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/193077-honours-and-medals-of-hanseti-ruska/?tab=comments#comment-1783433 A missive has gone out about the current available, and past medals of Hanseti-Ruska that both soldier and citizen can receive. At the end of the Scyfling Conflict, a medal and honours ceremony shall be held, where the documented medals shall be given out to those who deserve, and honorarily given to those passed that would also qualify for the medals. It is with great pride that I myself, headed and created the ‘Queens Cross’, for those who step out from safety to save the life of another, despite their own best interests. We hope to see all attend once the missive for the event is planned and posted, to honour those fallen, and receive or congratulate their comrades who have shown exceptional service to the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska. Oaths and Promotions Those Oathed into the Haense Royal Army and Promoted in 326 and 327 ES The Oaths Ozark Amelot Edward Lawson II The Promotions Zoe Zuilla to Armsman Ser Demetrius Ruthern to Captain Ionian Mackensen to Lieutenant Boris var Ruthern to Armsman Astoro Jovanovski to Armsman Vorion Baruch to Armsman Lamik Fillestar to Armsman Daniel Mackensen to Armiger Darien Frostfire to Armsman V. Recently, In Literature Studies, and literature based on and around, or written by the Haeseni Bralts Folly Written by Josef Alimar, The Red Prince of Muldav https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/192787-bralts-folly/ Written in the days after the death of the Late Red Prince of Muldav, Godfric Alimar, his son and successor, Josef Alimar, Red Prince of Muldav, sent out a public letter to Bralt the Disgraceful. The letter promises the death of all Scyflings that side with Bralt, the man who ignored their sacred day of ‘Moonfire’, a holiday for peace and forgiveness, a day-long ceasefire. The letter itself is an extremely moving piece of literature woven through pain and mourning, we shall all remember Godric Alimars sacrifice in an attempt to end the threat that is Bralt the Dishonourable. “Priveskiy” Our Oath Written by Sir Dietrich van Jungingen https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/192899-priveskiy-our-oath/ A beautiful poem and song written by Sir Dietrich van Jungingen, ‘Priveskiy’, is a poem about the Jeremic rights we hold as Haeseni, and our liberty and honour we hold to our Kingdom. It tells a story through its stanzas, that every Haeseni child should learn and hold dear. Haeseni Women: A history of of Vassalage Written by Henriette Marna de Rafal https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/192995-haenseni-women-a-history-of-vassalage/ A well written historical study on the women of Hanseti-Ruska, those that have held vassalage under the Kingdom. It has happened very few times throughout our history, though it may now become more frequent as succession laws within the Kingdom change to allow women to inherit. It notes the times that a woman should, or has been the heir to the kingdom as well, marking my daughter, Princess Royal Nataliya Reza as the most recent, until her younger brother was born. It brings an interesting topic to light on the indignities and unfairness of the past laws in Hanseti-Ruska, and how they are changing for the better. VI. Special Mentions & Honoured Figures Celestine and the Northern Geographical Society I would like to personally congratulate and applaud Celestine and the Northern Geographical Society on their continued work in bettering our knowledge of the world, and spreading literature and history throughout the Empire. The NGS has now expanded to the city of Helena, and its New Reza branch continues to expand and evolve, welcoming more knowledge from all walks of Arcas to expand that available to their patrons. I implore them for their hard work, and urge everyone to go see both their New Reza branch, and their Helena branch. The road to knowledge begins with the turn of a page.
