Deets 1130 Popular Post Share Posted March 2 ON THE DEGENERATE DAEMON “And you shall take them carefully, and shall not become a creature of worldly indulgence as the beasts of the earth.” Virtue 3:8 Issued and averred by His Highness Atstana de Regne Petrère 216 DEGENERACY, a plight found too oft amidst this Commonwealth when I took the mantle of Archduke twenty-five years ago. I am appalled to have learned in recent days of the degeneracy of the one known as DAEMON VALKONEN, who has defiled the Neras Aldtree of Riviènse through his abhorrent and degenerate act of marriage to not one, but two atronachs. Witnessed by several citizens of the city and promptly reported to Cardinal Godfrey. In tandem with this egregious and unholy act, he has seen fit to break his oath to the Order of the Petrine Laurel, having deserted his post in the same month as this despicable act. Per Archducal decree and consultation with His Eminence, Godfrey Cardinal St. Tylos, DAEMON THE DEGENERATE is sentenced to death within the Petran Commonwealth ARTICLE VI - OF CRIMES AGAINST GOD: IV. CROSS BREEDING Daemon Valkonen, as attested to by several witnesses, wed himself to two beings of a magical nature. Marriage beyond one’s descendant race is forbidden and punishable by the Third Catherinian Code. ARTICLE III - OF CRIMES AGAINST THE PETRA: I. TREASON Through his open declaration of his desertion from the Levy of the Order of the Petrine Laurel, Daemon Valkonen did willingly and openly commit treason against the Petran Commonwealth. Amidst the ongoing war, the former levyman abandoned his comrades and Commonwealth both. There shall be no clemency for deserters and those who would profane the sacred act of marriage. If encountered by any member of the Petrine Laurel, he is to be put to death on the spot. Any who would seek to shelter or aid him in evading justice for these acts shall be dealt with accordingly by the Catherinian Code. The atronachs too, if encountered, shall meet the same fate as he. ✠════════════════⊱⟡⊰════════════════✠ O S A I N T E R È G N E P E T R È R E HIS HIGHNESS, Joseph Antonius Aurèle, Archduke of the Petran Commonwealth, Prince of Riviènse, Duke of Seviel, Marquis de Val d’Estenou, Count of Moere, Neraquelles, Temesch, Torm Marian, and Vallagne, Viscount of Mies, Baron of Eagles Peak, Garmont, Hrenthorne, and Resmore, Protector of the Meadows. HIS EMINENCE, Godfrey Cardinal St. Tylos, Vice-Chancellor of the Church of the True Faith. 78 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phersades 1710 Share Posted March 2 The Archduchess of Petra read the missive penned by her husband... She'd grimace, thinking that her siblings would have NEVER in all her years as a Valkonen. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyWonderr 346 Share Posted March 2 The dark-haired heir of the Petran Commonwealth looked over the missive before it was posted onto the notice boards, "Strange times we live in." - "His death and exile has been decreed, and so, it is law." Although malice did not fill his thoughts, shame certainly did. 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cometking123 236 Share Posted March 2 Rewan gasped at the news: Not one, but two beings of magical nature? I suppose the deviant could not limit himself to one. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travisty 1020 Share Posted March 2 “Its those damn romance books. This is why they ought to stay banned!” Sir Dietrich commented upon reading the missive and having been present for the ordeal around its writing. With a tsk he folded the missive neatly to set within his bag, he knew his husband would get a kick out of this one. 23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramon 5186 Share Posted March 2 Godfrey Cardinal St. Tylos was, all things considered, quite traumatised by these events, "AAARGH. I hope they catch him swiftly. And make his death slow! I hope! I hope!!" That elderly Cardinal could be heard shouting from the Temple of St. Julia for a good few hours afterwards. If anything, baffling though the claims were, at least the fact he had signed off on this was thus obviously not in doubt. 23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digit___ 1226 Share Posted March 2 The great-nephew of the Archduke, Gilles Therin, would be provided the missive by a servant. As he looked over the parchment, prismarine hues would widen in shock. “Who would even provide rites for such an abhorrence?!” The young man exclaimed. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudgeTrudy 610 Share Posted March 2 From within the home of Haus Theonus, Lukas listens to the news with a face of utmost disgust. "Isn't zhis zhe same man who claimed to adopt ein Mori child?" The question wasn't one meant to be answered directly, for he knew the truth of his own eyes not even a year prior. He'd thought this man one of ill temper at the time, though, excusable by the actions of one as unnatural as Ubes. This news, however, simply proved to Lukas that Daemon must truly be maddened to his very core. "Ich haven't seen zhe Archduke make ein public decree like this...ever! What a shame, zhis man. May his family prove zheir honor on zheir own - maybe by publicly disowning him." Farther in the countryside, the Grand Speaker of the Garmont Assembly catches word of this decree several days after its publishing. To his grand-nephew, Theodore simply says "First Darkspawn in our homes, now a degenerate in our landed houses. Let us pray that Archduke Joseph's swift justice keeps the Inquisition at bay a little longer." 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nectorist 12871 Popular Post Share Posted March 2 You do well in the eyes of God. The Kingdom of the Virtuous must not be corroded within from those who would challenge the natural ordering of the world he has given us. Unsouled creatures are not endowed with the ability to consent to matrimony, and any attempts to regularize relations between the two must be rebuked firmly and swiftly. You have acted well here, and for this We commend you and your people.

Morigung-oog 5697 Share Posted March 2 Once again were Holy Ser Valithael's views on mage genocide validated in full. The elf had bore witness to all manner of voidal degeneracies, but even she couldn't hope to mask the shiver and look of resounding disgust that consumed her. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xo31 4013 Popular Post Share Posted March 2 Arthur stared at the paper in abject befuddlement. He considered the process of making an Atronach, and then what one would have to do to end out with such a thing. He frowned bigly. "Did he at least have a potion of fire resist?"

Cally 1080 Share Posted March 2 The Admiral Maerîl sees the missive, her brows delving deeper and deeper into a chevron over her eyes. Mouth perked into a disgusted scowl. “We’re bedding robots now? What the ****?” And burned the missive on a candle nearby to cleanse her eyes of it. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
