ErikAzog 3313 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2023 By the Grace of the Ancients, Sovereign of the Kingdom of Balian and Custodian of the Royal Legacy, We, King Adrian I, hereby issue this Royal Decree on this auspicious day of 11th of Peter’s Glory in the year of our Lord 83 B.A. It is no surprise that the former Queen has renounced her position from our Kingdom. But to be transparent to you, the Balianese people, our former Queen Andromeda has been nothing but a sluggish individual who laxed away while putting others to work for her desires, so she may slap her name upon any project and claim it as her own. It will no longer be that the former Queen, drunk on her own wishes for power and grandeur, will be allowed to exploit the people we so cherish and appreciate. Many a Governor has been driven from our Andromedan court, a failed institution she sought to create in her own warped image failed so spectacularly, it was no wonder... But blinded in my ways to make things right, as a father, husband and King, her former Majesty only sought to mistreat my attempts to have a positive relationship. Only for her to attack me in full view of others, my Sister Elena among them, she sought to confront Andromeda which led her to break down in tears when she realized that no one would agree with her and spoke against her in a feeble attempt at manipulation. But let Andromeda in her delusions go. She is no Queen of Balian. She is a treasonous woman, whose desires are only laid with holding a crown and not the well being of our people. Her recent actions were out of a woman who was denied. One who was confronted and told to cease her abuse. She merely wished to have the last word. But at least now We are free. In witness whereof, We have set our hand and seal on this day, affirming the retirement of Her Royal Highness Queen Andromeda from the exalted position of Queen-Consort. SIGNED, HIS ROYAL MAJESTY, Adrian I, by the Grace of GOD, King of Balian, Viscount of Pompourelia, Eflen and Anatis, Baron of Brucca, Valens, Malenos, Goza and Ciavola, Lord of Portoregne, Atrus and Monterosa, Warden of La Costa Rubinissima, Prince of the Holy Orenian Empire, Protector of the Heartlanders and the South, etcetera. HER ROYAL HIGHNESS, Elena Casimira Novellen-de Lyons, Countess of Rosemoor, Baroness of Enderoca, Amiratus of the Kingdom of Balian, Lady Seneschal of the Crown and Chief Minister of the Royal Duana. 47 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGH_FIRE 4118 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Sibyl, swiftly after putting down the other missive to focus on her own matters the next saints day would be given her fathers response. Another deep sigh would emanate from her as she read it, perhaps it was time she addressed this matter sooner with her father, to see where the problem lay. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreeSmoothie 4901 Share Posted November 12, 2023 "On GODANI," called the Royal Legate, his glum mood lifted. In conversation with Alberic, Annette, Gwyneth, and others, he -- unlike the Queen's missive -- folded it carefully into his pocket. "Aside from ... biases," he carefully spoke. "Andromeda was a rude woman. Crushed our Social Season with only snarky remarks to debutees, kept the palace so drab and dull. I was a witness to the many governesses she stormed out." 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErosTea 250 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Charlotte Henrietta began writing a monologue to represent King Adrian's response. "Oh, how quickly he seeks to remove any accountability from the situation! Woe to all queens, when she tries it is not enough and when she fails it is by all accounts her fault! Woe!" 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viktor var Ruthern's attention was caught, not by the slew of notices from the south in particular, but by the intensity and speed with which he spied an old friend flee out the gates of Valdev and southwards; replete with trunks and stores in tow. He squinted. She always had moved quickly. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oryP 972 Share Posted November 12, 2023 The count's eyes furrowed with concern as he glanced at the missive, quickly pushing it aside. Ser Demetrius shared in the unease, troubled not only for the kingdom but also for the well-being of his king. "May he persevere." 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncarr 2235 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Adela of High Peak perked a brow, she is truly torn, though in the end proclaims her support for the now single King. Announcing such to the monks who had grown tired of the fugitive Queen living within their quarters.. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marikandaperc 1166 Share Posted November 12, 2023 While everyone hurries for the single King, a Waldenian Knight by the name of Sir Karl adds "Baron-Emeritus of Wittenbach" to his signature and rushes towards the Queen-mother, ready to add King-Father to his resume. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
