Shiredom 1515 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Spoiler Posted on behalf of @Based1Salmon, as nobody trusts her to format this. Since we do not own any internal region in Vortice, nor do we have the ability to start a war since we are not a settlement, nation, or lair, this will be directed purely by Peacetime Raid Rules until further notice. We would like to say that this is not directed as an OOC Insult, we do not want it to be that, and if anyone views it as it, we apologize. "Reclaim the Golden Throne, Restore Vortice!" Maelstormic Society On the 16th of Malin’s Welcome, 1865 FE (69 SE) we announce the creation of the Maelstormic Society, a group that seeks to reclaim the Golden Throne of the Domain of Vortice and restore the Maelstormic Golden Age, with preferably peaceful means, although the actions of the stain of Vortice, the Jusmia may change our route to more violent actions to seize the Golden Throne. We understand that anyone without knowledge of our goals and reasoning shall assume us as a group of terror, or violence to oppress the people of the Domain of Vortice. We assure the citizens of the Domain of Vortice that we are not transpiring these cruel actions. And with that, we will grant three reasons to our claim to restore the Golden Throne and Maelstormic Golden Age. Reason I The failures of the Jusmia Administration are obvious, after Vivian Maelstorm perished and Athri Belrose went into the shadows, the Jusmia Administration has failed to properly administer the people of Vortice, several times have they fell to raids, becoming a near Tribute-State of the plagues of Thieves. Their attempts to reform their Militia have fallen to empty ears, and the Vortice Militia is now a shadow of its former self, cowering in fear when anything more than a pest roaming the streets is around. Reason II Failure to address the Protectorate Question. Is the Domain of Vortice still a Protectorate of Urguan? If this is true, how much has the Grand Kingdom of Urguan dared to bother to protect Vortice after Vivian Maelstorm and Athri Belrose signed the honor of Vortice to the short men? The fact that the Jusmia Administration has failed to address these issues, and how Urguan hasn’t bothered to help them from the start of the treaty, shows that they are weak, and fear the short men, whose armor dents by a stick. The Domain of Vortice should in all opportunity strive to seek true political independence, as the Protectorate Status has shackled them from doing their own external choices when Urguan has no claim to control Vortice in such a way, and Monarch Lenora Jusmia has allowed this. Vortice must break free! Reason III Honor used to be a major factor in Vortice. In its glory days, public duels were common to settle disputes. And now what has Vortice succumbed to? The occasional tavern fight, but now instead of issues, it has been filled and caused purely by the violence of Drunkards, who are not even citizens of our Domain! The Domain of Vortice must ensure that all disputes are settled fairly and easily because the crippled stage that this poor little Domain is in has caused all disputes to be settled by biased vigilantes and the loss of life, limb, and blood. The Justice system needs to be reformed, however, the Jusmia Administration has failed on this too! Ignoring the issue that Vortice faces, cowering their faces into the shadows, hoping that the crime that is happening behind the scenes will go away, it will not unless righteous action is taken to stop this! We invite the Jusmia Administration to criticize this however they want, however we will tell one thing to the citizens of Vortice. Keep a neutral stance at the very least, and we will ensure that nobody has to experience unnecessary pain and suffering, for we do not want any more loss to be caused in Vortice. All we seek is to restore a lost Golden Age, and to Reclaim the Golden Throne. James Maelstorm, Rightful Monarch of Vortice, Founder of the Maelstormic Society. The Grand Martlett, Former Princess of Vortice. Grandmaster of the Jackalope Order. Warlord Thomas Venice, Professional Fisherman. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeteorDragon 2705 Share Posted March 25, 2022 A strange dark elven man would lean over in his bench as he heard the news. Sulieronn pushed a hand through his hair, some stray licks flowing back down to hang before his eyes as he grumbled "Too much war.. stop trying to claim what you think you deserve. The Maelstorm and Jusmia families relatives.. distant.. but still relatives. Suck up your pride.. you're making Vivian turn in her grave." There was nothing but spite in the man's words as he spat them out with distaste. Spoiler bad quality image go brrrr 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bravery 881 Share Posted March 25, 2022 A young 'aheral, skulking about the roads of the warring nations, overheard the news of the so-called "Maelstormic" society, chuckling to herself. if anyone were to be the rightful monarch or heir to the throne of Vortice, it would be her. But did she care? ..Not too terribly. "Really now... the Maelstormic Society.... they act as if our name has any form of aristocracy. Leave my mother's name be for once," she scoffed. "I swear, my mother would be laughing her ass off at this..." 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

camocat9 1021 Share Posted March 25, 2022 "Ironic how this man argues the Urguan Protectorate is a failure of the Jusima administration when it was their own Monarch Vivian Maelstorm who signed the documents to stunt the growth of the city in the first place without even negotiating any clause to exit the treaty without the Grand King's approval..." An aging Shamil ibn Saeed Faheem mused from his small home within the streets of Vortice. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riftiro 127 Share Posted March 25, 2022 "It seems as the failures of the Maelstrom family will once again bring this city to what it was never meant to be." An older adunian chuckled, "Where was the democracy and unity that once brought this nation together? It seems as though times have... changed. Not that it's my problem anymore." The man coughed heavily, walking away from the poster. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
