Their Royal Majesties

The Duty of a Monarch is to the care and betterment of their people. Though the merge of the Commonwealth of the Petra and the Apostolic Kingdom of Aaun has physically made the Heartlands whole in land and on paper, it is becoming ever more clear that the Heartlandic people diverged paths generations ago. To protect the unique identities and the happiness of the people within the Heartlands, the Heartlandic Monarchs hereby enact Article VII of ‘To Unite The Heartlands’, where if the two nations and peoples be unable to peacefully merge, the Commonwealth of the Petra and the Apostolic Kingdom of Aaun shall split into two entities once more.

ARTICLE I - THE DISSOLUTION OF THE HEARTLANDER CONFEDERATION

1. The  state of the Heartlander Confederation shall be dissolved,

2. The Provinces of the Petra and Aaun shall assume independent statehood, henceforth reassuming their names as the Commonwealth of the Petra and the Apostolic United Kingdom of Aaun,

3. The land of each province within the Heartlands shall be returned to be solely owned by its Monarch as their Kingdom's sovereign land.

Charles II sits in his chair, tired but happy that a consensus has finally been reached

"Peace in our time," Emilio Varoche said, drinking his Carrion Black at the peace summit, "May it last till I pass onto the Seven Skies."

“And just like that, everything is swept under the rug, and no one is held accountable.” Renilde picked her teeth with the corner of the paper. 

[carebear 1291]

Rowena of the Petra celebrated Petra's freedom as her sister returned from her meeting.

 

"Peace! At last! Perhaps now I can finally get married!"

[indiana105 5126]

“Two roads, both lead to nothing.” Sir Stefan af Don af Petra muttered. “A nest of rats. That’s all this place is.”

[esotericas 2674]

"Who could have predicted this?" Said an unsurprised Alchemist from within her study, skimming through the missive. "Charles has learned his lesson. An Empire can not be built on diplomacy alone."

[rep2k 3192]

“Oh mon vineyards! I left you UNATTENDED with these imbecilles!”, Louis-Caspian cries out towards the vast land full of vineyards, therefore frowning at the nearby field workers as they run around. At least the conflict was solved, at last.

[ratlordmagic 1484]

Sir Karol Walewski lowers his sword promptly upon reading that there would, in fact, be guarantees of Petran Independence and Trials for the Marnans. “My GOD. We are so back.”

[AlternisJ 381]

"So much conflict and pathetic rambling for what? Just to end back up the same resolution everyone else came up with 3 years ago? Thank it's all over at least.." the uruk muttered to himself reading the missive, just saddened at how far it went just to end up at peace, with all the conflict added on now.

"nothing ever happens." declared sirius mareno

[Rig 17581]

Valerius Montalt gets whiplash from the Pontiff's decree and then his eyes smoulder with incandescent anger. The Republican Dream still drives him, yet there is one fact that brings him solace for the time being, despite his vicious disagreement with the edict. With tensed fingers, he drummed his digits against his desk, his entire posture eking malevolence and a glance of turpitude towards that insidious edict that was laid out before him.

 

2. Renilde Temesch of the Petra shall face trial for the sin of Kinslaying by the Canonist Church.

 

The youth readies his horse in the stables not too long thereafter, before riding to try and get an audience with the Pontiff. This one crime was not enough for her. There were many more that ought to be punished. For if the young boy could not earn himself a place in the annals of history through bouts in war, then he would certainly do so through the legal channels.

[MrGarden 295]

*Matthew drops the wooden sword and picks up Ivy* "Peace at last my dear!" *After it he lowers his daughter and thinks what to do now with the Legion*

[Tide1 4535]

"Nothing ever happens."

[wolfdwg 2677]

"Nothing ever happens," Fynn af Petra simply states staring at the abysmal peace deal.
