DECREE OF THE COMMONS

[Javert 9615]

 

FROM THE MARGRAVIATE

OF AVISTRA

DECREE OF THE COMMONS

Issued on the ninth of Malin’s Welcome, 

in the year of our Lord, 2030

GOOD PEOPLE OF BURGUNDY,

 

It has been some time since the Avistran village of WING’S CREST was established under the watchful eye of the HOUSE OF ALTWEGG. In this time, the village has established itself as a home of the common-folk, those willing to work the land in the services of their liege-lords. No laziness or privilege can be found within the lands of Avistra, nor can it be afforded. Therefore, a decision has been reached which will ensure the integrity and productivity of our fiefdom.

 

Henceforth, only LOWBORNS, COMMONERS, and SMALLFOLK are permitted to reside within the village of Wing’s Crest and other holdings of Avistra. The only noble houses which may be permitted to find permanent residence within Avistra shall henceforth be the HOUSE OF KEEN, the HOUSE OF ALTWEGG, and the HOUSE VAN AERT. This decree is made to ensure that all citizens and residents of Avistra shall serve as productive members of the March who understand the integral nature of the feudal system which Avistra follows.

 

Furthermore, to all those of lower stations who seek to find available housing, honest work, and fair tax, you are welcome within Avistra and Wing’s Crest. May GOD’s light guide your journey to your new beginning.

 

Signed,

His Lordship, Ser Meili Altwegg, Co-Margrave of Avistra, Knight of Ivoria

Peregrine looked at the decree with little concern, "Not like the nobles are really in need of housing with their lavish manors..." The Margraves son thought it was a good move.

Matteo of Avistra had no idea what the missive said, as he could not read, but he saw the Avistran crest and knew it was important!

The Margrave held the piece of paper her husband provided, nodding in agreement. "Should it be so. It'll be good to keep houses for the people rather build summer homes for those who don't need it."
