TO MY BELOVED COUNTRYMEN,

 

Many of you are amongst my closest friends and companions, you have served me and my house for many years now. You took on the perilous journey to these Almarisian shores from our humble beginnings in our homeland of Aeldin. 

 

I ask you now to join us post haste to the lands bestowed upon us by the good graces of the newly founded Kingdom of Aaun. We finally shall have a true place to call home amongst our Waldenic brethren. No more shall we dwell within a shanty town, from when we first settled these lands. We shall begin construction of our new and permanent home so that we may never need to move again.

By the grace of Charles I, King of Aaun we have been elevated to be amongst his peerage, and granted a large region to call home. In the lands formerly known as the Ebonwood we now call the Aschenwald, we now have begun the reconstruction and development of the land. 

 

Let us finally stop our ways of wandering and exploration. Let us finally settle down and create legacies for ourselves and those around us. No more shall we be vagabonds, let us rise above and usher in this new era. 

 

A necessary declaration as a closing statement, from here on out, let it be known the Velen Company be dissolved, it shall be succeeded by the Household Guard. The Velenic Duma shall be dissolved and be replaced by the Margravial Council. Our beloved scholars shall be reorganized into a state-sponsored guild and have its own academy to further their works. This to you my people I promise.

☩ CINIS EX SURGITE ☩

[Capt_Chief26 1207]

Wilhelm Barclay smiles as more of his people congregate into one new home for all Waldenians “Gott has truly smiled upon our people, the Waldenian people shall rise anew”

[Ramon 5186]

Ottomar von Alstreim smiled as he read of the Velenic Exodus, making a mental note to go pay his fellow Waldenians a visit sometime.

Sister Calliope peered over her nephew's shoulder so she might also read the missive, and resolved the same!

 

 

[argonian 14254]

"Waldenische Jungs, bleibt basiert," Stanimar utters, quoting a famous Waldenian proverb.

[TheWaffleEater2 176]

Fynn von Wexler looked at the landscape from where he stood within Aschenwald, and he would ay proudly "This land is a grace of GOD, its beautiful."

[seannie 7443]

"To finally sort out the mess that is the Ebonwood, good." The Prince of Alstion spoke thoughts aloud, now tucking away the Reuss' declaration to his people after having read it. Evidently content with evermore Waldenians.

[Optimus420 1926]

The Margrave of Velen smiles he arrives at edge of the Aschenwald. He looked to his men and kin and smiled, “We may finally settle and have a home. No more shall we meander the continent. We are home.”

[growingivy 3382]

"Very nice." Commented the Emissary of Velen. "A bigger tavern shall be nice." She'd bob her head at the words.
