Balthasar 2070 Share Posted February 20, 2023 PEACE AND BLESSINGS THE TWENTIETH GOLDEN BULL OF JORENUS 12th of Harren’s Folly, 1912 HIS HOLINESS PONTIAN IV, High Pontiff of the Church of the Canon, Archbishop of Visigia, Successor of the High Priesthood of the Church, Supreme Pontiff of the Church of True Faith, Keeper of the Canon, Missionary to Aeldin, High Servant to the Exalted's Testaments, Humble Servant of the Faithful and Vicar of GOD does decree… TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION I - RESTRUCTURING THE SEPTARCHY SECTION II - CURIA APPOINTMENT SECTION III - DIOCESAN APPOINTMENTS SECTION IV - PROCURING OF FLORENTINE SECTION V - REAFFIRMING OF DEUTEROCANONICAL TEXTS SECTION VI - BEATIFICATIONSECTION VII - VENERATION SECTION I - RESTRUCTURING THE SEPTARCHY It is with a mournful heart that We recall the death of Her Eminence, Matriarch Katerina of Jorenus, at 117 years of age. Completing her first thesis in the year 1854, and many more works proceeding afterwards, she spent the majority of her life in faithful service to the Mother Church. In recognition of this, and the diligence and excellence with which she performed her duties both as Matriarch Jorenus and Pontifical Chamberlain, the Holy Mother Church in its entirety thanks the good Mother Katerina for her leal service, knowing that her presence will be dearly missed. KATERINA CARDINAL JORENUS 1877-1910 It is, therefore, through Our Apostolic Right, bestowed unto Us through the Laurel derived from the Exalted, that We appoint His Grace, Bishop Iosif, to succeed the late Matriarch Jorenus. As a result, he shall be styled His Eminence and be known as Iosif Patriarch Jorenus from henceforth. The Pontificate also wishes to appoint Father Antonius of Barrowton (often called Tonito) to the Septarchy, for many years he has guided the misled denizens in the far reaches of humankind. His efforts in the remote lordship are applauded and encouraged to be imitated by our clergy. IOSIF CARDINAL JORENUS 1912- ANTONIUS CARDINAL SAINT CAIUS 1912- SECTION II - CURIA APPOINTMENT Furthermore, with the passing of the good Matriarch Katerina to which We paid tribute in the previous section, it leaves the venerable office of Pontifical Chamberlain vacant. To assume the office of Pontifical Chamberlain, We appoint Teodosio Cardinal Tyria. He shall be tasked with managing Church finances, Canonist wayshrines, churches, and land owned by the Holy See. TEODOSIO PONTIFICAL CHAMBERLAIN 1912- SECTION III - DIOCESAN APPOINTMENTS With the recent developments taken into account, and to honor the hard work shown by the following priests, We consider it fitting to make further appointments to diocesan territories: DIOCESE OF BURON - Encompassing the Commonwealth of the Petra, to be shepherded by his Grace, Bishop Victor of Blackwater. @Nectorist DIOCESE OF GELIMAR - Encompassing the Kingdom of Aaun, excluding Florentine, to be shepherded by his Grace, Bishop Theodore Barclay. @Liokv SECTION IV - PROCURING FLORENTINE One year ago the Pontificate received a letter from His Majesty, King Charles I of Aaun. His Majesty expressed his gratitude to God and the Pontificate. Verily had the Mother Church been good to him and his people. To further thank Us, the King granted us possession over the municipality of Florentine, which existed as a free city in the past in Oren but had since become largely abandoned. The City of Florentine will hereby be the direct possession of the Supreme Pontiff, to be administered as the Pontificate sees fit. It is Our endeavour to see the near-empty city restored to life so the merchants and artisans can live a peaceful and virtuous life without the fear of war at their borders. We invite all those who fled the city or are without a home to come to Florentine and participate in its restoration and development. Let it also be known that the Pontificate seeks qualified citizens to assume leadership offices in the city. SECTION V - REAFFIRMING OF DEUTEROCANONICAL TEXTS Many years ago the deuterocanonical status of various texts was brought into question. These texts are; the Aengulica Hierarchia, the Proverbs of Exalted Godfrey, the Hymn of Owyn and the pearl and finally the Book of Availer. The Pontificate had brought up these books for discussion during the Ecumenical of 1891, yet not much was achieved then. We then investigated these books ourselves. The Aengulica Hierarchia which was translated by Father Seraphim of Lora in 1773, achieved deuterocanonical status during the reign of Saint High Pontiff James II and has for that reason been found to be deuterocanonical. The Proverbs of Exalted Godfrey were translated by Father Humbert. Having been approved as deuterocanonical by Blessed High Pontiff Daniel VI, whose reign lasted from 1720 to 1737, it wasn’t published until the assumption of the Immaculate Throne by Saint High Pontiff James II in 1753. If there was doubt before, let it be known now that the Proverbs of Exalted Godfrey are deuterocanonical. The Hymn of Owyn and the Pearl is claimed to have been authored by the Saint High Priests Clement and Evaristus, later to be translated by Father Otto of Jorenus in the mid-1740s. It details the travels of Exalted Owyn, but by the author's own words is believed to have little to no historical significance. To Our knowledge, this text was never proclaimed deuterocanonical and must be examined further by a committee. Finally the Book of Availer whose author is the Wandering Wizard, Availer. Before the Scroll of Gospel it existed as the early history of the Descendant races. Naturally, the Gospel is more complete, but the Book of Availer is still an important book as some of our beliefs to this day are said to originate from this book. This book has been a subject of discussion since before Our Pontificate and must be examined further by a committee soon. SECTION VI - BEATIFICATIONS It is through Our Apostolic Authority that We affirm the following beatification…BLESSED PRINCE FREDERICK I OF SEDAN Beatified in recognition of his martyrdom, having given the ultimate sacrifice in the early years of the Serheim Crusade by giving his own life to protect the Vicar of God from harm. SECTION VII - VENERATIONS It is through Our Apostolic Authority that We affirm the following veneration… VENERABLE KING JOHN I OF BALIANMade venerable for having been a pious and just man throughout his life and reign. VENERABLE EIRIK BARUCH Made venerable for defending High Pontiff Everard VI’s life during the Michaelite Schism. VENERABLE MATRIARCH KATERINA BARBANOV-BIHAR Made venerable for diligent service to the Mother Church for sixty years. Remembered well for being the first Matriarch of Jorenus and the second female Cardinal of the Church.
