ON THE REPENTANCE OF THE SON

THE REPENTANCE OF THE SON

Scriptum Anno Domini 1978

 

THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUS REDEMPTION

 

☩ ☩ ☩
 

 

For neither my Lady-Mother nor my Lord-Father are still alive to repent, it falls upon my shoulders as their successor to make right where they have wronged. In light of such, I publish this missive, affixed by my own hand, in the hope that the people of the Rhosmark might yet again be rejoined with the Holy Mother Church.

A PRAYER FOR REPENTANCE:

 

Our Father, King of all, please lead us away from temptation, and lead us towards Your eternal salvation. We beg that You allow us into Your embracing arms Lord, regardless of the struggles we must go through to be there. In nomine Patris, amen.

I — ON IMPERIAL AND ROYAL OREN

 

For the Imperial and Royal titles of Oren have long been a point of contention and strife, as the senior most heir to the penultimate Orenian monarch, I do hereby denounce both in perpetuity. It is with deep reflection and a sincere desire for peace amongst my people that I announce my utmost desire to see these titles confined to the annals of history, where their legacy may be preserved without further turmoil or conflict.

 

 

II — ON THE LOWLANDER TITLES

 

I do hereby recognize the Treaty of Fredericksburg, and in doing so, relinquish all titles still in use that are claimed by the Kingdoms of Aaun, Petra, and Balian. For such titles are not mine to claim, nor do I have any desire to further provoke strife or conflict, I leave that which has been claimed and is in use to the Kingdoms of Aaun, Petra, and Balian.

 

III — ON THE WAR 

 

As the past war amongst humanity has been wrought from the ambitions of my father and grandfather, I do hereby recognize the profound impact which their actions have had upon the realms of Aevos and accept the guilt of their actions.

Let this missive stand as the repentance of the my House for its crimes against the realms of Man. With this, we begin anew, on a path towards renewal and redemption.

 

 

SIGNED,

 

RICHARD OCTAVIAN, 
Margrave of the Rhosmark

Margravine-consort of the Rhosmark

Quartermaster & Scribe of the Rhosmark

"A step in the right direction." Said Henry Arthur Haverlock, Duke of Blackworth as he read the missive from his keep.

[Malta 2811]

Clad in purple, draped in the sheets of the old world. An aged spirit cries once more in agony, the legacy of his people washed away by the sands of time.

"Petulant child, you throw away the last gasps of our labor. Curse you, and your children."
