Shmeepicus 3942 Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2023 Issued on the 10th of Lothar’s Gift 49 B.A. | 469 E.S. The revelations which have come to our attention these past months regarding the anathema and disgraced Duke of “Adria”, Heinrik Sarkozic, has proven to be most troubling and weigh heavily upon the minds of those Canonist peoples who reside within our three realms. His Holiness, Pontian IV, has laid before us all a list of sins conducted by the Duke which includes conduct with creatures of unnatural creation and consorting with heretical individuals. We likewise state, herein, that we do not condone the aggressive actions taken against the Duke’s rightful liege lord, King Charles I of Aaun, and stand beside him as pacted allies. Our three entities shall raise our arms in defense of Aaun and its people. Should the Free State of Adria be victorious in the conflict that has arisen from this political situation, the Kingdom of Balian, the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska and the Commonwealth of the Petra will raise their levies alongside the United Kingdom of Aaun. With this quadripartite of powers, We shall squash whatever rump state is formed thereafter, so that they may no longer stir further chaos amongst the realms of Humanity. Thus, it is with a heavy heart that His Royal Majesty King Alexander I of Balian, His Royal Majesty King Georg I of Hanseti-Ruska and Her Grace, Renilde I of Petra, do hereby condemn Duke Heinrik Otto Sarkozic for the crimes he has committed- and call upon him to submit willingly to His Holiness for repentance and absolution as well as sue for peace rather than bloodshed. We hope this wayward sheep is returned to the flock without cost to his kin or his people. IN NOMINE DEI, HIS ROYAL MAJESTY, Alexander I, by the Grace of GOD, King of Balian, Count of Monteres, Viscount of Eflen, Baron of Brucca and Valens, Lord of Atrus and Monterosa, Protector of the Heartlanders and the South, etcetera. His Royal Majesty, Georg, by the Grace of Godan, King of Hanseti and Ruska, Grand Hetman of the Army, Hochmeister of the Order of the Crow, Prince of Bihar, Dules, Lahy, Muldav, Solvesborg, Slesvik and Ulgaard, Duke of Carnatia and Vanaheim, Margrave of Korstadt, Rothswald and Vasiland, Count of Alban, Siegrad, Werdenburg, Alimar, Baranya, Graiswald, Karikhov, Karovia, Kaunas, Kavat, Kovachgrad, Kvasz, Markev, Nenzing, Torun, and Toruv, Viscount of Varna, Baron of Esenstadt, Kraken’s Watch, Kralta, Krepost, Lorentz, Rytsburg, Buck, Thurant and Astfield, Lord of the Westfolk, Protector and Lord of the Highlanders, etcetera. Her Grace, Renilde I, By the Grace of GOD, Archduchess of the Petra, Countess of Temesch and Moere, Marchioness of the East March, Hero of the Petra 94 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asutto 1947 Share Posted March 20, 2023 12 minutes ago, Shmeepicus said: Free State of Adria "Their recognition of our 'Free State' implies we've already won. I was unaware the Balianites had a clairvoyant within their midst." Spoke an Adrian Adunian. 19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
valecu 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2023 "We must stand united in the preservation of the Heartlands, for our people have suffered too much from endless ambitiousness and dreams of crazed men."

Wavey 1441 Share Posted March 20, 2023 "An Anathema...and he told mea he jest an honorable man." Gaius var Ruthern shook his head as he read the missive before his brows then furrowed in anger. "Heinrik Sarkozic jest a wolf in sheep's clothing, that jest for sure." The Baron set the missive down before going to his forge to polish his thanhic-steel mace, ready to defend Balian and the righteous people of Aaun alongside his fellow Canonist comrades. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crevel 4727 Share Posted March 20, 2023 "It seems that even in times of internal strife, all the realms of Canondom can come together to ensure that the Adrians are freed by the rule of the anathematised duke. This is the power of faith, and this unity is the power of the Lord God. Let us hope that this motion comes with the least bloodshed as possible, for there is still more virtuous work to be done." the Prefect of Florentine, Father Petyr, would remark to his accompanying acolytes upon the mention of the declaration as he arranged an urn for the Florentine chapel. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
