The Election Of A King

[Dizzy771 900]

*A somber entourage of dwarves emerges from the grand halls of Kal’Azgoth, the crowds gather before them to hear what is to come of the dwarven people. An older scribe like dwarf steps forward, the lords of the kingdom standing behind him, still mourning the loss of the late Grand King Thorin Grandaxe. The scribe coughs and begins to read from a scroll*

 

With the passing of the Grand King Thorin Grandaxe we are a nation without a leader. We must be united and continue on the legacy of the dwarven kings of old. Always have we been at the forefront of the fight againts the evils of this realm, and always have we prevailed. With heavy hearts we must continue on, we must take action and elect a new king. As is customary the lords will elect who they see fit to rule the kingdom and then there will be a vote from the candidates.

 

*The scribes voice slows and quiets. He bows his head in remorse, the elections will be held somberly, the nation still mourning its loss.*

*The lords step forward and in turn nominate their candidates for the new king*

[Dizzy771 900]

*Dizzy clears his throat and begins to speak first among the bunch*

 

I wish nae more than tu see the kingdom prosper an fer the legacy o-Thorin Grandaxe carry on. After much thought I 'ave come to a decision on who tu nominate.

 

*He pauses, head bowed for a moment*

 

I wish tah nominate meself.

 

I can garuntee dat I shall bring forth o-toime o-prosperity tu our people, and dat the will o-tha Brathmordakin shall be up'eld. I 'ave nothin further tu say at dis point. Tha toime fer speechs be later, now is onleh tha toime fer mournin and tha selection to re-affirm the strength o-tha dwarven nation.

 

*Bows to the crowd and steps back for the other lords to speak, his armor clanking*

[lιoɴ 248]

Wulfric stands up, taking out a scroll.

"I, Wulfric Comhan Grandaxe, High Remembrancer, Clan Father of the Grandaxes, nominate meself fer the position of Grand King"

He clears his throat

"Eventho' Ah've always considered meself jus' a Hiogh Remembrancah, Ah believe tha' Ah'll lead jus' lioke me uncle T'orin did, but wit' fresh wisdum n' knowledge. Ah'm prepared tah riosk meself fer tah Grand Kingdom n' alwuys will. Ah respect Dizzy n' mae tah best candidate taek tah responsibiliteh"

He steps down, waiting for the other Lords to nominate the candidates.

I just want to ask an FM to remove all posts that are not Lords' because this is only the nomination process, not the actual vote

[Kardel 1054]

Kardel speaks, almost too loud: "Ah'll nominate meself, lets see 'ow much da people 'ate me!" Kardel laughs, coughing in between "Eht. . .*cough*. . .eht wus a joke. . .ah'm nae gunna wurreh me 'ead wif dat burden."

Olaf pulls himself to his feet; brushing down his beard to look formal.

He speaks; his voice low and pained. All of the years he had wanted Thorin out; he hadn't really known what he had wanted all along.

"Dworv's evehn doe teh kin' is gon' weh shuld remembeh T'orin fer teh grand jub 'e 'ad dun. Tuwards teh end 'e got betteh ahn betterh at 'is job.."

Olaf's deep voice echoes through your ears, he walks further up so more people can see him talk.

 

"Fer t'is day.. Olahv wihl announce 'imself.. Olaf elects himselv fer kin'. Maneh uf yer wihl t'ink Olahv is nay guud fer teh job. Doe; maneh uf yer forget teh simple yet effectiv' t'ings ah 'ave dun fer the kingdom; ahnd teh large t'ings tha' 'ah 'ave dun to greatah teh kinbgdum. It is toime fer Olahv tu mature; Olahv cannae always beh teh feared kihler uf ahll races buh dworvs fereveh; Olahv needs tu prove himselv, tu ahll dworvs ahn to teh kingdum. Ahn nuw tha' the Eldes' Dworvs Olahv new frem birth ahr ded, much respect 'as beehn takin' as maneh uf teh Dwarves dat 'ave doied ahv'e seen teh great fins ah dun in teh past fer the Kingdum."

 

Olaf raises his hand, turning his back to the ground. Once again he repeats himself.

 

"Olahv volunteers 'imself."

[Lago 2572]

"Ah nominate Wulfric."

[no longer active 734]

*Mili steps up*

Ah 'ave been wit' Urguan longer den most o' ye 'ave lived if we doubled ye loives. Ah know w'at de kingdom needs. Fee dat reason ah nominate me self.

[doom6153 57]

*Dom steps forward slowly pained by the lost of his beloved king.*

 

"Ah wish te nominate meself fer King.

 

Ah wus unse de voice and vessle uv de Brathmordakins will. Ah can be again! Ah wus unse de Masta Engineer. Ah built maneh ah war machine. Ah 'ave fought alung siode ye, ma kin, in maneh a battle. Ah 'ave seen and experienced de strifes ye 'ave. Our blessed Grand King, may 'e rest peacefully in de stone wit 'is ancestors, brought abut an age uv prospariteh and de growin uv our great Kingdom. Ah plan te keep dis prospariteh and defend ourselfs against de Khorvadic scourge uv de North and dat below our feet. Elect me Grand King and our kingdom shall prospar and grow in dis tiome uv perile."

 

*Dom quietly steps back to stand with the other Lords*

[chaotikal 2392]

Dormin looks at all the selfish Dwarves nominatin themselves and utters.

"Ah nomineit Kjell."

[Mucky 443]

Dormin looks at all the selfish Dwarves nominatin themselves and utters.

"Ah nomineit Kjell."

"Olahv nominated Kjell befur; doe Olahv tinks Olahv shuld troiy atleast."

[Lathros 377]

*Lathros walks up* "Erh, eh do know tat most of ye dun nae loike me. Eh understand tat. Fer eh ave dun tings tat can nut be explained. But en teh mean toime eh nominate Bael. Er mehself *he chuckles to himself*. Probableh Bael tough" *Lathros strolls off*

[Dizzy771 900]

*Dizzy is puzzled by the amount of dwarves standing around chattering to each other about nominating people. Only the five lords can nominate people, those five being Dizzy, Telchar, Wulfric, Dom and Farren. However Farren is away on a quest of his own at the moment*

 ((Since when has that been? Dwarves have always had, since Cave Dwarves, a democracy with a Monarch.))

[iTzShambo 135]

*Ronseal waves his right arm in the air and begins to chant.

"Daven fer Kin'!"

[Tortek 51]

 ((Since when has that been? Dwarves have always had, since Cave Dwarves, a democracy with a Monarch.))

 

((Well this process of only the lords choosing candidates for king began after Hiebe was overthrown.))
