[!] The crest of the Kingdom of the Haenseti-Ruska.

 

The Kingdom of Haense has been a busy place since the last Edition of the Kortrevich Bull Post. For one, the Centennial Anniversay celebrations marking 100 years of Haeseni Independence have come and gone - most prestigious and wonderful affairs, the writers are told. These writers’ predictions have turned true since the last Edition. The most popular Morrivi Prikaz Auction saw the popularity of our predicted garments #5, #8, & #10, and luckily for Her Majesty each and every item on sale was sold for several hundred mina each. Furthermore, these writers’ prediction that “The Hearsay of Hanseti-Ruska” shall bring about its grand return for the social season came true - albeit not on its semisequicentennial anniversary as we had hoped.

 

Lastly, the time is coming for Lifstala to finally commence! The Queen’s Council have been working hard to compile the events for the busy two year period, each of the lords and ladies of-age are brushing up on their manners and dancing in preparation to present themselves in front of the Queen and her Court, and the Grand Prince of Kusoraev has finally come of age to begin looking for his bride. Polish up ladies! Your time to impress Prince Georg is now.

[!] An inspired portrait depicting one of the most prestigious of recently published-about Royal Headdresses.

 

Following up on our past praisings of the Mistress of the Robes, several magnificent “Moda i ve Kort”s have been published in recent memory. These include; the incredibly detailed “Cosmetics”, the centennial celebratory history of Haeseni fashion - “Karosgrad Trends” - and the latest edition detailing the “Royal Headdress Collection'' of head adornments - from the Coronation Cap to Queen Emma’s iconic Ruby Emerald Kokoshnik. Such works populate the mind of every aspiring young lady of the Courts in her efforts to appease the Queen - a feat which the Mistress of the Robes should be pleased of. Her team work around the clock to outfit the Royal Family, and provide detailed writings of culture to the Haeseni populace. Haense applauds you, Mistress of the Robes.

 

Furthermore, the Queen has recently advertised her wanting of a new Palace Custodian after the recent filling - Lady Zoya vas Ruthern - stepped down. She is also looking for a new Curator of the Crown Jewels - a most fascinating position for the gemstone-inclined. Of course, with the incoming Lifstala Social Season, the Queen’s Council are also awaiting volunteers to be a part of Her Majesty’s Lifstala Committee - involved with planning and writing events for the generation’s busy Courtship Season. 

 

Lastly, for young Lords and Ladies looking to be a part of the Social Season but having not yet written into the Queen’s Council, they are encouraged to do so posthaste to ensure they are not missing from the list of the Season’s suitors.

AULIC RESIGNATIONS AND APPOINTMENTS

[!] A portrait of Lady Palatine Johanna Barclay and her dog, Rusalka Barclay in the Palatine’s Office.

 

 

It was by no means a surprise when our beloved Lady Palatine, Isabel Baruch, published her resignation letter. After all, she recently posted a Palatial notice calling out for Palatial Kommissars to begin the process of taking over her workload in the office in preparation for her replacement. This section is dedicated to the hard work of Haense’s second Lady Palatine - the writers in particular appreciate her dedication to the various Haeseni Peoples via appreciation posts, her diplomatic ventures to make peace with foreign powers, and her wisdom in leadership and diversity. Haense will miss its Lady Palatine, however she has been replaced by another.

 

Duchess of Reinmar, Johanna Klaudia, has succeeded the Duchess of Valwyck in her position as Lady Palatine and the Bull Post could not be more pleased for her. Since her appointment she has overseen the addition and formation of “Ve Ibor Konkil” (The Iron Council), a secondary Council managed by the Palatine and Grand Maer to operate some of the more minor institutions of the nation with greater cooperation and dignity. Furthermore, the first Komptroller of Settlement - Iulius Vernhart - has also stepped down from his honourable position and into retirement. Firr Iulius has been working hard in the background to welcome in new citizens to the Dual Kingdom, and these writers thank him for such efforts. The Kingdom is watching the Crown intently in anticipation of its next appointment to the position of Lord Komptroller.

 

Lastly, prior to Lady Palatine Baruch’s resignation, she had been integral in the reinstitution of the Office of the Justiciar. Countess Adele Ludovar was appointed as Lady Justiciar, continuing her hard work. The wards and the Lady Justiciar herself worked hard on the newest curriculum, allowing new and current wards to gain more experience and exposure for their career.

 

The passing of the Golden Bulava, as the head of the Aulic Council, is always a notable event in the Kingdom, inviting in a new era alike that of the passing of the burden of the Crown, and the Kortrevich Bull Post has decided to dub this now-ongoing period “The Age of Freedom”.

[!] A painting of the village outside of Vidaus.

 

With Duke Ruthern taking on the mantle of the Grand Lord under Her Majesty in the Capital, it has come to the Duke’s spouse to take on a few of his duties while he is away. As such, it is no wonder that the oldest Ducal House of the Kingdom has continued to flourish under his and his wife’s leadership. Duchess Margrait Ruthern née Baruch has brought a special touch to the icy lands of Vidaus. And for her efforts she has been rewarded with the responsibility over Druzstra and newly constructed Branhavn as the Duchess in her own right - a prestigious status to achieve as a Peer’s Consort.

 

Thinking of Branhavn, the new settlement has certainly grown popular since its inception a few years ago. The Black Company has substantially grown, employing a vast protective force to watch over the village, and the Ducal Couple have begun advertising their various ventures via a helpful noticeboard in the center of the hamlet. The children of the Kingdom often frequent the Ducal village for parties, festivals, and other goings-on - no doubt including extensive quantities of alcohol.

 

Furthermore, the honourable House of Ruthern recently published their History of House Ruthern, detailing the House’s origins under Ruther Bonebreaker, and its rise to prominence later under King Petyr I. The long document recounts the long and extensive history of the Ducal House, its Traditions, notable Relics, and various members of the family of note

 

Despite the success of their village outpost, as published recently by the Duchy, the internal House of Ruthern have come down with a bout of illness soon after an across-family feast with the Comital House of Ludovar. As of now, it appears that only Ruthern Lords and Ladies have come down with the disease, and the Kingdom extend their thanks to both families for volunteering to quarantine themselves in their respective Keeps until free of infection. Luckily, the family have since recovered, however they have unfortunately lost four of their members to its hold, and for this the Kingdom mourns. Rest in Peace, Joren, Zoya, Rhys, & Milena Ruthern.

TRAGEDY STRIKES BETHLENEN

[!] A painting of the Colborn Keep.

 

Despite the sorrowful death of Lord Godric Colborn as mentioned in the previous Edition, further tragedy has struck the most recently elevated Baronial House. The Baron of Bethelenen, at a well-anticipated Colborn Feast, apparently fell down the stairs and has remained comatose since that day. His powers and duties have passed to one of his grandsons, now-Baron Maric Colborn, until the younger generation are ready. According to this writer’s sources, Lord Adrian Colborn is being tended to dutifully by his family and servants, and the Kingdom is praying for a swift recovery, and for the future prosperity of the unlucky Baronial House.

SOME GRAND WORK

[!] A painting depicting HSH The Grand Prince of Kusoraev.

 

Along with the Grand Prince coming of age and being invested by his Father, and sworn to by the leaders of our Kingdom’s various factions, he has also begun branching out - alongside the Heir of Ruthern - to publishing his own writings. This writer notes the promising quality of writing, clearly the Prince and Ruthern pair have had excellent governors, and the similarity in his publishings to the early works of His Majesty before he ascended to the throne. This writer fondly remembers the King’s recount of dueling etiquette, and now the Royal Librarians can add the son’s works next to the father’s for future generations to read.

 

The works of a boy destined for Kingship should be a fascinating read, and a must-read for any and all interested Haeseni jousters. This writer looks forward to reading any and all future writings from Grand Prince Georg.

NOBLE EXPECTATIONS

[!] The symbol of the Royal Duma in light of recent publications.

 

In her works as the Royal Inquisitor - the manager of Noble conduct - Duchess Johanna Barclay recently published an extensive survey on the expectations of nobles, and an evaluation of noble House ascension. Such a document has done well to highlight the current state of nobility in the nation, and should surely be of great assistance to Houses of present, and House leaders of future to understand what more they can do to increase their status and standing in the Haeseni ecosystem.

 

Furthermore, it is this writer’s opinion that these writings should be read by all noblemen and women, as it will embed into them the responsibilities placed on them for their Crown-given privileges. It is hoped that such mandatory readings will help to negate the stagnancy and idling of recent generations, spurring them on to work hard to support their House.

AN UPDATED MAP OF THE KINGDOM

 

EKTTtsa.png

[!] A section of the newest map of Haense, made by Wilfred Proudfoot IV.

 

Recently, King Karl III commissioned a renewed map of the Kingdom with updated names, titles, and territories. The artistic map includes the recently obtained Silver Isles, along with the extensive Attenlund marsehes, and the newly claimed Grenz region. Wilfred Proudfoot IV, cartographer of the map, took the well-appreciate liberty of labelling each Haeseni Vassal’s keep, and various other landmarks such as Halfling Honeyhill, Hallaburg - designated to the Knights, Excitor Manor, and abandoned Krusev Keep.

 

Luckily, Mr Proudfoot has agreed to update the labelling and symbols as the map for an ensuing 20 year period. The Citizens of Haense wanted to extend their thanks to the studious hard work of Mr Proudfoot for providing them with such an informative and true-to-life map.

"On behalf of the House of Barclay zu Minitz,

 

I wish to congratulate the Kortreivich Bull on his virility, however I must remind him that such a lifestyle is sinful and in stark contrast with Canonist doctrines of marriage and conjugal relations. As his brother in Horen, I advise he mend his ways and seek a priest.

 

Regards,

Stanimar Barclay."
