Adrian Mandate of Peace | 1930

[Nooblius 7965]

ADRIAN MANDATE OF PEACE

 

Issued by the Duke of Adria

In the year 1930 of the 19th of Tobias’ Bounty

 

 

---

 

The question of Adria’s independence has long been settled, the Free Duchy of Adria has acted with total sovereignty for the better part of a decade. The question of its part in Canondom cannot be questioned either, for Adria has reconciled its disputes with the Holy Church and is in active communication with its Cardinal, Antonious, on any remnant concerns.

 

An extended armistice cannot work, for tensions would only flare up. The only peace can be a true peace, though the offer from the Coalition offers trust that a true peace is within sight should it be negotiated. In pursuit of peace, the Ducal Coronet declares an immediate ceasefire for the period of one year, and warns its subjects not to enter foreign lands without invitation.

 

Diplomacy shall be made with haste to the leaders of the Coalition to negotiate terms of a permanent peace with all members, but the Free Duchy of Adria declares a commitment to a true peace in the following interests:

 

1. A genuine integration within Canondom. That disputes regarding the faith shall not be escalated to the threat of existential Crusade but instead discussed with the Church and any wrongdoing made right.
2. The dissolution of the Holy League as an opposing force to the Duchy. There can be no Holy League against fellow members of Canondom once a peace is established.
3. A meeting with Aaun to discuss its differences in title claimants and to come to a reconciliation regarding the war’s beginning, and the gifting from Adria of a prized steed to the esteemed House Barclay of Reinmar.
4. The imposition of limits on any conquest that threatens the territorial integrity of the Free Duchy of Adria, its allies, and a peaceful Midland.

A loyal soldier of Adria would recite: "May the Children of Horen bleed each other dry no more!"

"...And now we wait for the canonist league..." Pyeter I of Nordvegr commented

"I'm truly curious to see how long a Renatian duke can remain at peace... suppose we'll see," Emilio shook his head, eating his slice of pizza.

Hilda Freysson beamed from ear to ear as she perused the Adrian proposition. "These terms seem perfectly just. May we have peace in our time."

[Crevel 7561]

Father Petyr hums as he reads over Adria's terms and compares it to those offered by the League. He notes that the Adrians did not address the heretical Canons Regular that had made Adria its base of operations, almost seemingly to avoid the question entirely even though that's one of the major reasons why tensions between Adria and the League are still there. He discusses the topic with some local priests as he continues writing his Housemagery books.

"A horse! A horse!" says scarlet barclay, overjoyed at the prospect of receiving a horse.

A random person notes that this document includes Adria's terms for peace, and is not a dismissal of the terms of the Canonist League.

Wilhelmina raised a glass in the tavern with some old friends as the Adrian Mandate was made official.

 

"... a toast for peace in our time!" she called out.
