The Stag Decree

[carebear 1291]

 

 

 

Issued by the County of Anairgrid

Atstana de Regne Petrère 168

 

With all the great changes taking place in the Commonwealth, and across the world, we must accept that it is not in the wizened minds of the past that we will find the shape of our future. The house of Reinhold has always believed that it is in the dreams of the youth that new ideas are forged, paths created, and bright tomorrows are carved. In times such as these, it is to our children we must turn, their minds unclouded by nostalgia and looking ever-forward. 

 

With the changing of the tides, so too will we adapt. As Countess Adelyn Isla retreats to care for her health, having left behind a long and treasured legacy, it is her chosen heir who will take her place. 

 

Capric Reinhold was adopted to the family at a young age, quickly proving himself as sharp-witted, brave, and steadfastly loyal. Despite struggles in his youth, he overcame each and every challenge, and completed his rite of passage in the Ailmere at the age of nineteen. He has served the Commonwealth for years as a soldier of the Swords of Saint Emma, and there is no doubt that his ambition and experience will lead the house of Reinhold into a brighter tomorrow.

It is from this day forth that Capric Reinhold shall be known as the sole Baron of Raònoir, Viscount of Stormont, and Count of Anairgrid. These titles are passed onto him with the utmost confidence of his family, and with hope for the future.

 

 

HER LADYSHIP, Annette Alexandra Reinhold

Countess-Consort Emeritus of Anairgrid

 

THE RIGHT HONORABLE, Capric Reinhold

Count of Anairgrid, Viscount of Stormont, Baron of Raònoir

 

[StingyParrot 1595]

The new Count of Anairgrid turns the declaration over in his hands, his face unreadable. He's sat in Manor Caithian's living room, still digesting the fact that - This was real. No going back from here.

 

His only hope is that he can live up to his predecessors, and honor the house that cared for him.

 

. . . He'll also need something formal to wear. Damn.
