God's Call

       

11th of the Sun’s Smile, In the year of our Lord, 12 of Balian’s Age

 

“ 5 But while you preserve the kingdom of man, the kingdom of GOD languishes. 6 The Lord is the Lord GOD without peer, but you have failed in your defense of His word. 7 Indeed, your own brothers mingle the word of lesser beings among His, and lapse in His commands for favor of new and foreign ways.“

 The Holy Scrolls, the Scroll of Spirit; 2:5-7

 

 

 

The Grand Duchy of Balian has now received word from her allies within the Northern Almaris Treaty Organization that nations continue to harbor and place aggression towards the peace that has been sought after by the righteous nations of the realm.

 

Since the foundation of the Grand Duchy of Balian the Azdrazi threat has remained present at both the doorsteps of Atrus and that of the southern continent. The Grand Duke John Casmir had forewarned this threat in the fourth year of Balian’s Age that the Grand Duchy shall work towards eliminating them fully from our halls and our flock. 

 

A revelation from our allies has proven to show such threats now lay within the Horde’s lands. Such action is deemed necessary so that the Horde’s ties to the side of Iblees and his spawn may be cut and removed like a cancer. The Horde, whom’s domain lays just a few leagues off-shore of both the Kingdom of Oren and the Dual Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska, poses a threat to both Canonist nations.

 

The Grand Duchy of Balian is a Canonist state. Our faith is placed in the Holy Mother Church and in our God who’s light we strive to live in. As the Fidei Defensor has taken action and the Church has called for all Canonists to arise, the following shall be declared.

 

The Grand Duchy of Balian shall answer a call to arms from her allies within the alliance. By the power invested by His Imperial Highness, the Grand Duke John Casmir, the Grand Duchy shall be  joining the Grand Kingdom of Urguan and the Dual Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska against those who protect the followers of Iblees and challenge the peace of the realm. 

 

Glory to the Grand Duchy, Glory to God.

 

 

 

HIS IMPERIAL HIGHNESS, John I, Grand Duke of Balian, by the grace of GOD, Lord of Atrus and Monterosa, and Prince of the Holy Orenian Empire, etcetera.

 

His Imperial Highness, Alexandros Casimir Novellen, Count of Monteres, Prince of Balian

 

His Excellency, Lord Seneschal of Balian, Sir Rev Vuiller, Count of Aquilae

 

His Excellency, Lord Legate, Constantine Malenos

Ember is seemingly on her 6th cup of whiskey

 

"I NEED SOMETHING STRONGER FOR THE LOVE OF THE CREATOR!" She yells In a empty house

[Fionn__TWG 2795]

"GOTT bless the southern Canonists." remarked Tylos III from his office as he received the official missive from an acolyte "They may be far, but their faith keeps them close."

[shay 2582]

"The N in NATO stands for nice." commented the Haeseni Queen

[Harald 2875]

Sir Rev Vuiller, the Seneschal of Balian and acting Regent would smile. moving towards his armorstand and the trident of Saint Harald Vuiller that hanged upon a wall. Getting ready for the war to come.

[bee 184]

Yelena vas Ruthern, in the middle of printing her last couple papers for The Honey Tea's third issue, would skim over the missive in a hurried manner. 

 

"They couldn't have decided upon this a few hours ago!?" She'd gasp. She'd stand up on a chair within the paper press room, "STOP PRODUCTION! RECALL ALL PAPERS! THIS NEWS MUST BE ADDED! BALIAN GOES TO WAR!"

[AnimeWolf0080 1509]

Laurelie Vuiller would look over paper with a sigh yet another would plague the lands of Almaris. She would head to church and start to pray for everyone who would be caught up in it.

[annabanana1014 2084]

The Princess Imperia, Tia, would grin as she held the scrolls of St. Harald,

”GOD before all else!”

[SteppeNomad 1624]

"The N for Nato stands for THE PALE BEAST and I HATE THE PALE BEAST"

 

"I HATE THE PALE BEAST I HATE THE PALE BEAST"

 

A powerful steppe warlord tugs his mustache while looking for ways to pry down the walls of the settled man

 

"I... Hate the Pale Beast... I HATE The Pale Beast..."

[Eokamaster 215]

Father Roland, upon reading the missive, would quickly go to his office and begin to note a letter.

"To the fair duke John I of Balian, when citing the holy scrolls you needn't put the verse numbers directly in the quotation, as you already cite the verse number(s) afterwards. For future reference, follow this example of which uses the method of High Pontiff James II:

 

"So I find that you are strict in your arms, but lax in your prayers. But to pray is to gird the spirit. The hand of GOD is the greatest weapon to bear, and His word is the paramount strategy." (Spirit 2:11-12).

 

 I have also seen various other grammatical mistakes, but I shall write to you about this at another time.

 

Sincerely, 

Father Roland"
