THE REVOCATION OF SCHWANAU

THE REVOCATION OF SCHWANAU

“So do we follow the endless cycle, unable - or unwilling - to create a new path. We the lords and ladies of the Petra vow to break this; to create and moderate a revolution capable of renewing the greatness in our leadership”

Archduke Paul Salvian Temesch, 30 A.R.P

NEARLY A DECADE AGO, Archduke Joseph the First saw fit to bestow upon the House of Schwanstein the Baronial title of Schwanau, a reward for their house leader’s service to the Commonwealth. Though his judgement in doing so was sound, the past several years has seen the status of the Baronial house become a concern for the Petran crown.

 

With one son of the Baron exiled from Idunia for deep associations with darkspawn, a check-in upon the spiritual health of the rest of House Schwanstein was the clear duty of the crown. However, before such a discussion could occur, a delegation from the lands of Kurai-Kuni came to the steps of Palais Madelaine with further troubling news. The peaceful visitors explained that a daughter of House Schwanstein had kidnapped the sister of the Shogunate’s Admiral, held her within the Petran capital, and demanded her to perform various labors under duress. This crime, while committed by a child, was still a severe violation of the Petran law code which the Baron of Schwanstein would be responsible for amending.

 

In an act of grace, the crown offered that the House of Schwanstein may move into a period of probation, performing redemptive acts of service as a chance to retain their titles. Instead, the house chose to have their titles revoked and depart the lands of Petra.

 

Henceforth, the Barony of Schwanau shall be placed into abeyance, and may not be reclaimed by any member of House Schwanstein. Though they are wished well in their journey elsewhere, the family shall not be re-welcomed into the Commonwealth’s ranks of nobility at any point forth.

"Mm." Mattea Asadha, who had wished to be there at the meeting, reads the revocation papers with a resolute nod. "Good. They were a delusional bunch."

It is that of STEKVARK of Lochunskofk whom had recently conducted a personal conclave with the Barony of Schwanau and its impeccably diligent negotiators at the Duchy of Adria. He frowns at the news: "Unfortunate news, truly!" lest he intends to interfere. 

[Lokvank 385]

"Schwanau ist, Schwanau war…" a certain Treasurer would murmur to himself in Waldenian upon reading the missive over. Regardless, he continued on with his usual duties.

"**** the Von Schwansteins, aint no one like a Von Schwanstein." said Ser Gedeon.

From within his office, the Grand Speaker of the Garmont Assembly is brought the missive by one of his assistants. Upon reading it, the ancient man frowns and lets out a small, tired sigh. "Guess I'll have to find a new Deputy Speaker, then. Let's add that to our list of tasks." he says to the assistant before he gets back to writing an already lengthy document. "May the family find success and happiness elsewhere." Theodore murmurs to himself, as if maybe he ought to write that down, too.

Alma of Reinhold reads the part about labor a few times over and realizes someone lied to her to a very great degree.

A conversation is to be had.

A certain pink rose Carnelle read over this missive, laughing akin to that of a hyena. "Oh- Oh, father! Wait until Aunt Anna hears about this!"

Witold-Leskek blinks - he didn't know Lady Charlotte had a sister!
