Passing of the Torch

[Nymstra 251]

 

The Novikovs have resided in the Kingdom of Haenseti-Ruska and the United Kingdoms of Aaun for generations. Once mere servants of the royal families, our family has grown to become more than just peasantry. We have become a name that was once spoken quite often among many circles.

 

After moving to Hyspia, the majority of those who held the name Novikov have taken on the name Denodado, a name given to us by His Majesty, Cesar the Second of Hyspia. There are still those who hold the name Novikov, and use it proudly. To my cousin, Michal; It is unbecoming of me to continue to claim to be both the patriarch of the Denodado's and of the Novikovs. I have left the lands of Haense and Aaun, and you remain. 

 

Because of this, I hereby relinquish the title of Patriarch of House Novikov to Michal Novikov, for he has more than earned the right to hold this title. I look forward to seeing our ancestral name grow, and become well known once again.

 

 

Signed,

 

Baron of Sevilla, Justiciero of Hyspia, Oficial De Imigracion
