Let it be known that I, Adelbert Wick, Baron of Wickwald, shall cast my vote and therefore extend my support to Stekvark Lochunskofk, and at the coming Dumapalooza, nominate him for the title of Duke of Adria.SS

 

There are those of great noble lineage, certainly, and those who carry the support of respected voices within our Dukedom, both worthy considerations. Yet, it is within my strict belief, and that of Wickwald, that Adria is best served by a Duke unbound by any noble house. It is for that belief that governance may remain impartial and free of favor.

 

My judgment is not ignorant. Through many councils, disagreements, and deliberations, I have come to know Stekvark in a professional, steadfast, reasonable, and fit capacity for the rule of Adria. In hearing his vision for its future, I found no pursuit of power—only his intent for the betterment of the Duchy.

 

Beyond this, we have stood together in battle against the coalition of Urguan & its allies. Despite the hardship, it has forged a trust between us, whereas I have seen his character prove where it matters most. 

 

For these reasons, I place my full support behind the ducal candidate, Stekvark Lochunskofk.

Baron Adelbert Wick of Wickwald,
 

Adria does not stand at a moment where noble tradition alone will carry it forward. Expansion, alliances, and the weight of our own ambitions indicate this. Governance demands steadiness, deliberation and strong will in the manner. If I'm considered fit for that purpose, it is only because my judgment has never belonged to anything but the work itself.
 

You and I alike— have upheld and shared the same hardships in war. In those moments, titles hold little to no meaning. What remains is a warrior's reliability, whether a man can hold his ground, and whether his act only matters at time of ease. It matters most that others can depend on that individual without question, that measure does not change simply because the field does.
 

I cannot claim to be the perfect answer to Adria's continuous prosperous future. No man is, at the end of the day. However, understanding the cost of failure, I do not treat my future responsibility as something to be worn lightly or abdicated at my most inconvenient partitions.
 

Shalt the electors choose me, then such duty will be met with clarity. It will be met with strength, consistency, and an iron fist for Adria's favour. Thus, your support is received with the seriousness it deserves.
 

 

Ave Adria,
STEKVARK, Lochunskofk

Castille Fontaine read the announcement with lifted brow. 
 

Stekvark you crazy bastard, He thought. It appeared the deliberations had been successful. He set his mug of mulled wine down atop the counter top with an- admittedly foolish grin overtaking him, against his will. Oh what a turn of events, the Wicks making a decision I can agree with? 
 

If I were a betting man, I’d be broke.
