1st of Horen’s Calling, 1850
Issued and penned by the Duke of Cathalon from Cheval Hall. 

 



To whom it may concern,


It is not for us, the laity, to decide upon matters of the clergy, ardent worshippers such as we seek the guidance of the Holy Synod and the Holy Mother Church led by the Vicar of GOD, His Holiness to bring us to moral righteousness and salvation in the Seven Skies. Duke Thomas Andrew Helvets, and the whole of the House of Helvets do affirm our fealty in faith to His Holiness, High Pontiff Everard VI. The tumultuousness of the past year of 1849 is behind us all, so let all come forward in this new year to be of one Empire, one faith, one High Pontiff. Lessons of the War of Two Emperor’s are remembered well within the household of Helvets, and bloody schism shall only lay humanity low as we sit at the precipice of invasion by the dwarves. Thus we denounce the actions of schismatics who would tear the tapestry of our faith apart and anoint themselves as its leaders. It is our fervent wish that their Imperial Majesties be reconciled with His Holiness, and that remedy be found so that the unity of our faith remains whole and the brotherhood of Canonism defended. We are their Imperial Majesties vassals always and the true Vicar of GOD, His Holiness High Pontiff Everard VI, leads the faithful.

 

I, Thomas Andrew Helvets, Duke of Cathalon, seek penance from our Holy Mother Church so that excommunication and interdiction may be lifted from the souls of our Empire. We appeal to His Eminence, Francis Cardinal Albarosa, @KaiserJacobII, the Archbishop of our local diocese to hear our plea and dispense such penance. 

 

Signed,


Thomas Andrew Helvets, Duke of Cathalon

Helton Rhodes Helvets stands beside his father, the Duke, as the letter is penned and signed. "I pray this schism heals quickly, father, and that God has mercy on our souls." Much was on his mind, and he could not help but wonder if the heathens to their south would use this conflict of the faithful to their advantage.

A man that it concerns in the upmost, The Prelate of the Clergy, smiles as he reads the affirmation. "Of course I will offer penance," he declares.
