Penned by Anne of Alstion   Given the stances of the growing generations of the City of St. Godwinsburg and its many families, education proves as a vital importance to the nurturing of the future of our great city. To further nurture the establishment of many successful modes of commerce, trade and a burgeoning enlightened generation, the Prince’s Institution must be fortified with a healthy influx of students and attendees to further benefit their success and its constituents of our Alban people.

 

I | From each family, both poor or rich, should they provide their two eldest active children to be enrolled in the institution for at least a minimum of two (2) terms. Tuition fees are still to be paid for by each respective student by their guardians.

 

II | When found in violation of not following this law, a fine of 100 mina for each child not sent should be paid for by the family to the Crown and its representatives for each term not enrolled.

 

III | If any of the eldest two children is proven indisposed through any means whatsoever, then the family shall provide the next eldest in their place to compensate.

 

IV | If there is no financial means to enroll your children, and also no financial means to pay the imposed fines for violating said law, then it is at the Chancellor’s discretion to provide another means of repayment. 

 

 

Copies of these resolutions are to be reproduced and stored within the Johannian Archives, for safeguarding and the prosperity of the realm. In witness whereof, this Resolution is decreed by the Archduke of Alba and witnessed by the House of Lords, In the year of Our Lord 2070.

 

Her Ladyship, Anne Margery Alstion

Dirk of Little Furnestock, the peasant and the son of the now passed Stefan frowned. Whispers of the sickle beyond him.
 "They shall have none that will do their harvest."

Lance of Little Furnestock, the eldest of son of the deceased Stefan too would frown as he read the missive,  he'd only recently become mildly literate.

"A hundred mina." His hands clutched the paper, "We can hardly afford t'eat.."

A nearby Lorraine soldier would be very displeased with this new anti-poor law in the neighboring city, if he could read.

Matyas had been watching the sunset from his balcony, a quill in one hand, and papers in the other. To his dismay, Vasiliya had barged into his room to tell him of the news. Perhaps it would be a welcome change if he prepared sufficiently. He only hoped his social interactions would remain at a minimum, even if this made for good experience -- a shell yet to be broken.
