sarahbarah 5008 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Spoiler WRIT OF ABDICATION Issued by THE DUCHESS OF VALWYCK On this 10th of Jula ag Piov of 444 E.S. VA VE EDLERVIK, It has been seventeen years since I first inherited the Duchy of Valwyck from my father, Eirik I. Throughout my tenure, however, I dedicated most of my time to my Palatial duties as opposed to the betterment of my House, much to my own dismay. Further, my vigour is not what it once was, as I have grown much older, and consequently weaker in both body and spirit. This has not been the case for my firstborn son and heir, Valdemar, who has shown great prowess in ducal affairs from the very beginning of his heirship. Now that he has come of age, I see no reason to stand in the way of his potential, for he has the vigour and drive necessary to bring the Duchy to new heights it has yet to witness. He is most capable of inheriting the Duchy and I have the utmost faith in him that he will serve Valwyck and the Kingdom well. Thus, I proclaim that all of my titles - Duchess of Valwyck, Countess of Ayr, Viscountess of Voron, Baroness of Gant, Laval, and Riveryn are to be abdicated to my firstborn child and heir, Valdemar Eirik Baruch. Long may he reign. BY MOUNTAIN, RIVER, AND COAL, Isabel A. Baruch KML 25 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herod 802 Share Posted September 22, 2022 “Life is rather short and burdensome, my dear niece, I’m proud of vy for finally figuring that out.” Kaustantin stated to the gushing wind outside his window overlooking Lichtestadt. His head pivoted back to the side. “Another Bear has retired, when will it be vyr turn?” He asked his wife with a grumble. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little did her husband know, Nikoleta was hard at work for her own retirement plan. She of course, had two more things to do… or three… or four! 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerentia miserably waits for her beloved niece to retire and then die, so she may finally ascend to the seven skies-.. or go under to warmer places. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThanksChris 589 Share Posted September 23, 2022 The young Duke of Valwyck sat in the study at Lichtestadt that evening, burning through the late hours with quill in hand. Where to even begin? He knew there would be a whole pile of letters to draft before first light. To notify the King of his ascension, to petition Georg for his advice, to bid the Bishop of Valwyck make preparations for his investiture, to inform Malcolm who was for the time being his heir. Though his mother more often made use of the Palatine's office than this one he still felt strange occupying the seat. Just as he felt strange marking them with the great seal of the Duchy, rather than that of Voron which had felt so familiar in his hand. This would take some getting used to. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
