PROCLAMATION OF NEUTRALITY

[FireAGN 1207]

 

Issued and averred by

Their Excellencies

Atstana de Regne Petrère 134

 

By decree of the Regency Council of Adalia I, the Commonwealth of the Petra hereby announces its neutrality in the conflict between the Sovereignty of Ravenmire and the Apostolic Kingdom of Aaun. After cautious and prayerful consideration, the Regency Council has determined that the Commonwealth will not levy its forces to support the hostile acts of the Aaunites of which began this war. In steadfast commitment to the principles of peace, the Commonwealth of Petra instead affirms to rebuild the instruments of our government and steady the course of the Riverlands given our reestablished independence.

 

Should His Holiness, Deunoro I, issue a call for aid, we are prepared to fulfill our sacred obligations by supporting him in accordance with our spiritual commitments and faith. This declaration is issued with the highest seriousness and in alignment with the guidance of our Bishop of Casica, who has decreed that our policy must stand in adherence to the command of the Holy Church of Canon. We honor and incorporate his wisdom into our official position, ensuring our response is measured and reflective of our government's collective will.

 

The Regency Council of Adalia I remains steadfast in its commitment to neutrality and principled conduct. Following the examples of our fellow Princes, we shall open our gates with welcoming arms and resolve to provide all necessary assistance and asylum for refugees of the war.

Lord Mayor Sorrel Tulple Auclair would not forget the time the Aaunites declared him guilty of a crime he’d never committed. “Aggressors, one and all. May this conflict of their own concoction teach them what consequences actions do have,” the man said, prior to signing the document at the 1989 gathering of the Garmont Assembly.
