"I should get a maid too.." said Vice-Chancellor Cr. Pelagius.

Cr. Pelagius St. Humbert shrugs, smoking a Santegian cigar within the Augustine palace as he reads the parchment published by Fr. Basil: "I was just enacting what Francisco told me, I'd presume it is his decision of as to what he might do next concerning this demanding debacle - may God guide him in doing so."

Cr. Francisco Nescia being crowned by Cardinal Pelagius & his Dolorosan Court. A DIOCESAN LETTER TO THE HYSPIANS To the Passion, Long was the day in which self proclaimed “King of Hyspians”- Antonio Rivera, accepted the faith of Canon amongst his exotic courts, risking his vassalage under Sutica to establish the first Bishopric of Hyspia [Now, the Bishopric of Cordobe], before withstanding exile directed by the Trade King of Sutica due to his efforts to introduce Canonism to his peoples. Furthermore: Long was it the day in which the aforementioned Antonio Rivera dared to topple his piety & divided the Hyspian flock to indulge in the heretical Faith of the Red. Mentioned above: Antonio Rivera, the uncivil “Jarl” of the Red Hyspians within the borders of the Nordlings - fractured the Hyspian flock into two due to his sudden interest in the Red faith, one faction being those loyal to the Faith of Canon: The White Hyspians - shepherded by myself, Cardinal Pelagius-Albarosa, & headed by the pious Cardinal Francisco Nescia, of Hyspian Heritage, the white Hyspians are large in number when contrasted to the Red. In opposition stand the Red Hyspians, Norlandized Hyspians headed by the heretical Antonio Rivera, establishing a small Jarldom as the Nordlings call it outside of their northern capital - not only this however, for the mad King committed numerous crimes to both his remaining citizens alongside with those belonging to the Canonist Faith, as stated below: I. Encouragement of Heathenism or attempted conversion of the Hyspians en masse will first result in permanent exile. Should one try again to convert en masse, they will be removed of their tongue and branded upon their forehead. II. Verbal or physical attacks on clergy of the Church of Canonism and encouragement of destruction of Church property is punishable via execution should the defendant be found guilty. As quoted from the Hyspian codex of Law. With that being said, Antonio has been lessening the likes amongst the White Hyspians, unfortunately those loyal to the church are in search of a new figure to remark as King due to Antonio’s actions. As stated above, many Hyspians are in favour of Cardinal Francisco, overseeing the Albarosan influenced Archdiocese of Nescia - known for his diligence within local affairs & undying piety for the faith. In fact, this letter written by Fr. Hernando Altimirano is quite evident of these supportive observations. Thus said, I myself - Cardinal Pelagius, under my jurisdiction as Vice-Chancellor of the Canonist Church, & Prince-Archbishop of Albarosa, am to crown Francisco Altimirano as the King of the White Hyspians. There will be a Coronation held within either Cartagena, Osanora, or one of my personal Dolorosan Courts in the coming weeks. Let it be known - the Hyspian Flock shall no longer be lacking a shepherd, for the light of Horen commends them well. ISSUED & PROCLAIMED, His Eminence, Vice-Chancellor Cardinal Pelagius-Albarosa: Prince Regent of Santegia, Savinia, Prince-Archbishop of ALBAROSA, encompassing the Diocestial territories of: Rochefort, Nescia, Cordobe, Gottsgrenze, Ponce, excetera.. THE CORONATION of 1809 Henceforth, due to the call of coronation by Cardinal Pelagius, the event was held within one of his many private Estates within Albarosan borders; on this specific occasion, it was within his estate outside Cartagena. It was a largely unplanned affair, only around twenty-three participants in witness, sixteen originating from Pelagius’s court, essentially a part of his Family, numerous courtiers or rather commercial servants, & a few Albarosan Clergymen, including that of Reverend Bishop Ferdinand Ponce. The remaining participants were an array of Diocetal members, such as Hyspian & Santegians on goers inhabiting the area, awaiting to witness the upcoming historical event for themselves. One or two Saints Minutes passed before Cr. Francisco & his entourage arrived within Pelagius’s throne room, the Cardinal was backed by his heir, Rodrigo Altimirano & Infante Leo Altimirano - accompanied by three Hyspian regulares garbed in red & clad in Santegian plate armour - alongside with this, Francisco showed up with two of his Clergymen, including Fr. Fernando, & of course the Baron of Cartagena: Teo Komnene. The Hyspian retinue bowed before his Eminence, sitting upon the white throne within the Dolorosan halls, decorated with brilliant designs & paintings, exotic parrots flying throughout the court ceiling - displaying the utter luxurious lifestyles of the common well off Albarosan Cleric enjoys. Cardinal Pelagius would then begin to recite the Sacrament of Consecration upon his throne, headed by a quaint vessel of purified water - holding a Golden Horn at his left hand: “As the Book of Godfrey says, ‘And Godfrey spoke ‘I have kept our faith, but Aegis is lost and the Grotto of Gamesh with it. No holy water may purify the sins of this world: I am unworthy.’ But Eshtael said ‘Lo, wickedness cannot undo what wickedness has done. Your home shall never return in your life. But know that God is great and the waters of Gamesh are His creation. He names the pure and the impure, the good and the evil.’” “O Lord, You poured the sweet water into the rivers, and You blessed the waters of Gamesh that cleanse the faithful. You name the pure and the impure. We pray that You name these waters pure as well, that we may be renewed in Your Holiness.” The Cardinal signs the Lorriane above the waters, once swaying the aforementioned Golden Horn into the pitcher. “And lo! the waters of prophecy are purifying, and they spill forth to purify.” Cardinal Francisco Nescia places his hand into the water, before placing a finger utop his forehead as he signs the Lorraine Cross upon it with the blessed water. One of the Hyspain servicemen armoured in Regulare Uniform mentioned above; walks up to the dias in which the coronation was taking place, placing a flag displaying the Cross of St. Humbert & the Hyspian motto “CARA AL SOL.” beside Cardinal Pelagius’s Throne. Once then, both Pelagius & Francisco shifted their view towards the crowd. Church bells rang & musicians blew their trumpets - Pelagius raised his fist in a passionate manner: {Pelagius} “¡VIVA JULIA, REYE!” {Crowd} “¡VIVA!” {Pelagius} “¡ARRIBA HYSPIA!” {crowd} “¡ARIBBA” {Francisco} “¡ADELANTE HYSPIA.. VIVA EL REYE!” The crowds during the coronation within Pelagius’s court began to celebrate jubilantly, waving their arms around whilst shouting a variety of phrases of praise, such as “¡VIVA PELAGIO!” & “¡VIVA ¡FRANCISCO!”. Henceforth, a new crown has been set upon a new age of the White Hyspian History: THE REIGN OF KING-ESCOPIOUS FRANCISCO NESCIA 1809 - onwards

Vice-Chancellor Cardinal Pelagius-Albarosa sits in a chair within a Dolorosan Estate, thinking to himself with a large cigar - "Hmm, perhaps I should commision a Heraldric Arm or two from that Tiberius fellow everyone speaks about, the ones I use are quite lacking!"

THE PRINCELY ARCHDIOCESE OF ALBAROSA AN ARCHBISHOP'S ADRESS FROM THE DESK OF, Cardinalis Pelagius Albarosa Let it be known, this very document is to be deemed outdated as per the publishing of the Third Bull of Providentia, released to the laymen in the 15th of the Sun's Smile, 1807. Although, by comission of the Prince-Archbishop, Cardinal Albarosa himself, a revised and up to date version of the Archdiocese informational documents will be distrubuted to the good Canon masses in coming time.

"Uh.. us Hyspians do not dine with infidels..... what do you mean!?" A grimy peasant of Hyspian Heritage would state.

"No. There is no need for Reform if the Church causes barely any harm to your Red Faith, simply deal with it." Cardinal Pelagius-Albarosa would say, Prince-Archbishop of the Archdiocese administrating over the Bishopric of Leumont.

Cardinal Pelagius reclines in his seat with a large Hyspian Cigar, "Albarosa gets all the bigger!"

EL PRIMER BULLA MENOR DE ALBAROZA THE FIRST MINOR BULL OF ALBAROSA ALBAROSA: The largest & most prosperous Archdiocese within her Blessed Church of Canon, sends their gratitude & honour to those surrounding the territories encompassing the See alongside with anyone else following the faith of Horen. Lumination amongst the beautified light of GODANI seeks recognition towards his flock under the eye of his Eminence; Pelagius Albarosa. With that, the Cardinal of Santegian origin commenced the creation & the wide publishing of the FIRST BULL OF ALBAROSA under his Holiness; JUDE II’s reign surrounding the Canonist Faith. The Bulla shall input the centralization of the far reaching Religious territories under Albarosa, recording those of the Albarosan Clerical Ministry throughout the Princely Archdiocese & simply that. LA ESCUELA DEL ALBAROZA BENDITO THE BLESSED COLLEGE OF ALBAROSA As mentioned above, the Archdiocese of Albarosa is incredibly large, housing some of the most diverse cultures & territories around the realm of Almaris, fractured since the diaspora of it’s original borders within Kaedrin. As of current, the Archdiocese follows clerical administration primarily beyond the Imperial Capital of Providence within Oren [Esbec, Rochefort, Etc..], however, alongside with this, it houses the displaced Hyspian peoples & further, the territories of Sutica & lands within reach of the Trade Capital. CARDINAL FRANCISCO SUTICA @Timer5011 From the Diocese of Nescia under Albarosa; Encompassing the Trade City of Sutica, The Hyspian Bishopric of Cordobe [Cartanega, Osanora], & All Elven territories surrounding it [Elvenese]. * BISHOP FERDINAND PONCE @Totalitarian From the Albarosan Diocese of Ponce; Encompassing the Orenian Land Holding of Sedan west of Providence.

"This is his first Thesis." A fellow Hyspian would state.

Cardinal Pelagius-Albarosa clanks a glass on a quaint luxurious Illatian sea vessel off the coast of Sutica with a smirk, "Me, Vice-Chancellor. That's right."

"R-racial J-justice?" A grimmy Waldenian peasant of low-born stalk would say as he notices Haelun'or on the piece of parchment, "Coming from.. High Malin? They must have lost their minds!"

"I enjoyed drinking Tequilla with him!!" A Hyspian peasant would say.

"VIVA HOREN, VIVA DEUS, VIVA PAPADO!" A group of patriotic Hyspians would shout as they read the Articles of Enthronement. Before long they'd make their way up to the Osanoran Church of Santa-Catalina to deliver this news to Cardinal Pelagius-Albarosa of Santegia; the Cardinal would then joyfully begin to commission one of his courtiers to write a letter of congratulations to the newly Pontiff elect-Jude II-previously a long time acquaintance & friend of Pelagius during his time as a Priest within the Metropolinate of Providentia. An Albarosan Cleric seen writing a Letter to the newly elected Pontiff.

"Canondom does not need change or adaptation, it is only in the need of Adjustment." The Santegian Cardinal; Pelagius-Albarosa, would state as he begins to write his vote on a piece of Parchment, "If I-Pelagius of Savinia, am to be Pontiff.. my efforts will only be of beneficial action towards our Church. The Pontiff is to suffer in the name of his blessed flock, for the satisfaction of our Canonist Brethren, as of current-those olden days of utmost loyalty facing the positions elected by GOD seem to have transpired amongst the fields of the past. The Church must evolve to better encompass the current Political organizations of once feared Nations, just as one might fit themselves into a new shoe; for if the Canonist fire wishes to continue amongst the children of Horen, my vote is to be sent forth. If I am not elected.. so be it. If I am to be elected.. I have been given this position by GOD himself." Cardinal Pelagius would then cast his vote at that, before enjoying perhaps his final sip of Hyspian Tequilla.

"HOREN BE PRAISED. MAY THE LORD BLESS YOUR MIGHTY GOD. HOLY JULIA BLESS YOU ALL AND YOUR FAMILY. GODAN BE WITH YOU." An Orenian peasant would state to his friend as he reads the Thesis.

This is pretty based, reminding me alot of Moorish/Amazigh cultures; I might just make a persona for it

Cardinal Pelagius-Albarosa would sit himself amongst the clergymen with a bottle of de Savoie 1657 Wine, seemingly surrounded by a sizable entourage of eye-catching Hyspianas. The Prince-Archbishop silently casts his votes on a piece of parchment, for the question of Beatification, being that of the following; -Vytenis of Luciensport -Andrik 'I' Vydra -Everard II "I find these specific individuals fit for beatification due to them holding a fine signification amongst the common Canonist population, for them to be recognized as of importance would be a great benefit towards the Church."

A stubby Kaedrini man in a full red tailcoat would lift his massive eyebrows at this formal statement from the Josephite party; peering down at each name on the Candidate List, "Uhhhhh...... why is there like 4 elves on here? I thought oren was a HUMAN.. empire..!"

"This is incredibly.. Based" Cardinal Pelagius-Albarosa would remark, spending almost 4 years of his early Priest ventures within the freezing mountains of Norland, reminiscing on when he spent all that time converting those of the Red Faith to Canonism.

"He's right!!" Cardinal Pelagius would state

"Dios Mio." The Cardinal would state to himself, "What a hysterical woman, how dare she question the will of God.. backed by a mad mob of heretical filth... Disgusting."
