AN ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE HOUSE TEMESCH,

With rulership, one must know when their time has come to depart from a position of leadership and to instead allow another to rise to the calling. Since my rise into role as former Viscount, now Count of San Adriano and Patriarch of Temesch et Martiel, we have managed to garner many things and we have reached milestones that we hardly believed we could attain once more. But time and GOTT showed us the path forwards and our path within our beloved kingdom is not ended yet. Only it is time that my path as Count to reach it's natural conclusion for the matters of the house have surpassed me and no longer am I fit to perform my duties that are owed to the house I have dedicated much of my time too. Instead as I continue to serve the Kingdom of Balian in matters of the state, I shall instead allow my abdication to allow for a ruler who is far fitter then I to rule, for someone who has indeed taken after her ancestors and is destined to bring the house to far greater heights then I could ever fathom or conjure.

 

TO THIS END,

Let it be known, that by my own and my late wife's wishes and by this very hand, the mantle of rulership and title associated with the house shall instead fall upon my daughter, the Lady Augusta Eliana Temesch who through her dedication and acts within the house will rise as Countess of San Adriano and Countess of Martiel. May her reign be blessed and may her descendants live in memory and in honour of all their predecessors.

His Excellency, August Benedict Temesch,

Amiratus of Balian.

Austina Varoche smiled warmly for her brother. "I'm glad to see they're doing well."

Tomas Salazar diligently read over the missive before murmuring quietly to himself, "He was a wonderful Count.. I pray we might exceed past the line laid before us." - "May her reign be blessed."

The Temesch sat quietly at her desk, her brows furrowing lightly as a feathered pen twirled between her fingers. Her lips were pursed, and her eyes began to close in deep thought. She had known this moment would come eventually, but now that it was here, it still came as a shock. Letting out a soft sigh, she closed her eyes briefly before finally beginning to write, her words a faint murmur on her lips.

 

“May GOD bless me during these times.”

 

For let her reign be blessed.
