You're one of the people who inspired me to join the Canonist community way back in July. It's sad to see you go, but best wishes

"I've had limited interaction with this fellow." The Cardinal Pelagius would comment, "However, looking from a far at his work & deeds, Father Goren is truly a blessed man. May GOD Rest his holiest soul." He'd say as he sheds a tear, before signing the Lorriane Cross.

"Even if this is true.." Cardinal Pelagius comments as he sets down a glass of Sangria, "His Eminence is quite the legendary Lady's Killer."

THE CALL OF HOLY DIET

1802, 355 ES

Cardinalis Pelagius Albarosa-de Santiago, sits himself at his desk, thinking to himself, “With the ascension of the new Pontiff, I might as well hold a holy meeting, hm?”. After the Cardinal’s appointment, a fond addiction of Hyspian Tequila has been ever so more growing, “Converso, dame un vaso de tequila!” like a true Santegian, he calls for one of his wood elf servants to pour a glass of the fine Añejo. Taking a sip he picks up his pen, writing a letter for the newly enthroned Pontiff; Owyn II. 

To his Holiest, his Eminence, Owyn III. As my first act as Cardinal of Albarosa; I request of you & petition of you to call a Diet amongst our Clergymen, being held by myself, Pelagius Cardinalis Albarosa, preferably during the Grand Harvest of 1802.

To all of the Canonist Clergymen of the realm of Almaris, I request of you to attend this Diet. What is to be discussed in this holy meeting will be our strategy to maintain neutrality, how we can increase our cultural relevance & political involvement in local governments.

As per the First Golden Bull of Albarosa, I petition the Pontifex Maximus to sanction the convention of this Diet of Bishops.

All Priests, Bishops, & Cardinals are invited.

THE GRAND HARVEST OF 1802

((SATURDAY, 5PM EST))

The enthroned Albarosan Cardinal, Pelagius, sits on a decorated wooden chair in a balcony within the Cathedral of Providence, swirling around a quaint glass of half empty Tequila as he looks beyond the city skyrise. A newly converted wood elf, known as a "Converso" in Hyspian, stops by & pours a bit more Tequila into the Cardinal's glass, before he whispers something into Pelagius's ear;
 

"Su Santidad.."

"Si?"

"El Eminencia, Laurence, has been elected Pontifico."

Before long, Pelagius bounces out of the chair, almost dropping his glass of Tequilla. "AYAYAYAYAYAY! The Pruvia did it!!" After a momentary pocket of excitement, the Santegian Cardinal makes his way over to a painting of Julia, bowing down before the Immaculate Mother as he recites a short Santegian prayer.

"Agradecemos el don de nuestros hermanos y hermanas Santegianos e Hyspanos. Haz que sigamos siendo un lugar de puertas abiertas, de corazón abierto, con capacidad para todos. Danos corazones generosos para que podamos seguir usando nuestros dones para apoyarnos unos a otros. Amén." Pelagius then makes the Lorriane Cross, standing up from his Prayer as he starts to write a letter of celebration for the newly elected Pontiff.

A Santegian Bishop would sign the Lorriane cross infront of a fine weaven print of Mother Julia within his apartment. "Descansa en paz, the Holiest Pontiffico is in Horen's realm now, Deus bless."

"Nay, the idea of nuns being able to exercise exorcism is unfathomable, that is a practice for the men of Horen." The Santegian Bishop would vote.

My main character, Pelagius;

THE BISHOPRIC OF HYSPIA

Maintained by the Right Reverned, BISHOP PELAGIUS; Obispo Pelagio Juliano de Savin

“Dorime una Corazón” 

INTRODUCTION

By the Grace of his Holiest, High Pointiff James II; Established in 1800, the Bishopric of Hyspia is a subordinate diocese to the Prince-Archbishopric of Albarosa, and is currently shepherded by Bishop Pelagius de Savin of Hyspia. This diocese is catered to, populated by & sustained through the Hyspian people: a formerly Sutican minority with a distinct culture, similar to the Santegians of old, developing into a unique identity we now consider ‘Hyspian’.

FOUNDING STORY

HISTORIA FUNDACIONAL

Father Adelric of Reinmar had contacted the Prince-Archbishop in 1798 regarding the Hyspian situation: where a Canonist majority was oppressed by a heretical Baron within the nation of Sutica. He and Cardinal Albarosa assembled a delegation consisting of themselves, Cardinal Ailred Reinmar & Father Pelagius: in hopes to petition the Sutican nation leader on behalf of the Hyspians.

From this gesture grew a more intimate bond between Hyspians & the Holy Canonist Church: who seemed to be the only human institution that cared about their fate and progress as a society. When the delegation returned to their respective dioceses, having negotiated successfully with the reasonable Sutican leader: the Prince-Archbishop left behind his most trusted advisor, Father Pelagius, to lay the foundations for a Hyspian diocese.

With cooperation from the local clergy and Hyspian leader, Father Pelagius managed to establish a proper congregation that diligently partook in the worship of Canonist. Together with Father Pelagius, Cardinal Ailred Reinmar & Prince Antonio Rivera: the Prince-Archbishop petitioned His Holiness James II to proclaim Hyspia a diocese, and appoint Father Pelagius as its first Bishop. 

Such happened in 1800, when Bishop Pelagius ascended to shepherd the new Bishopric of Hyspia towards its greatest divine potential.  

SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH REINMARIAN CLERGY

RELACIÓN ESPECIAL CON EL CLERO REINMARIO

While culturally and ecclesiastically more aligned with the Prince-Archbishop of Albarosa, both the Hyspian clergy & civilians find themselves particularly fond of the Reinmarian Clergy under the Archdiocese of Jorenus. 

This intimate relationship transcends their differences in geography, culture & ecclesiastical alignment. Father Adelric of Reinmar is seen as the original messenger that brought GOD’s institution to Hyspia, and his relatives such as Chaplain Alfred or Cardinal Ailred had laid the groundwork for the Albarosan clergy to lobby and then ecclesiastically integrate them. Without them, the Prince-Archbishop would’ve never known about the Hyspian fate, and in turn, neither would His Holiness have known to care. 

Prince Antonio Rivera granted the entirety of the Reinmarian clergy honorary Hyspian citizenship, and have instructed Bishop Pelagius to enshrine their contribution in the Diocesan seat & history of Hyspia.

FREDERICK OSWALD HELVETS 

FOR THE COMMONS

11th of.. Malin's Welcome; year 3 of the Second Age, 1798

The faithful Rhoswenii sits on a cushioned chair within the Augustine Palace, pondering on as to what Oren was once was & what it is now, “I applaud beloved days when our Renatians held the sword of Justice & piety under God.” Just as his brother, Adrian Helvets, Frederick holds a mighty ambition to reform the Empire of Oren to a greater state, cleansing it of the snakes & rats that degrade our Country till death, he will do such until the Men & Women of Oren shout in the streets of Providence; 

“FOR GOD, EMPIRE, AND MAN.”

INTRODUCTION

Almost Two decades ago; that Adunian, Jonah Stahl-Elendil established the Josephite-Adunian Elendil Ministry, and many more decades ago when that fabled legislature was formed, creating a two party system amongst our Orenian State. It is a fact in which those nations who rise and fall go through a period of slow decay, whether it is from outside intervention, and or interior ventures. Simply walking through the colden streets of Providence, I, Frederick Oswald Helvets, have already witnessed such decay within our empire.. When you have a rotten apple, you must throw it into the rubbish bin.

 The one party authority of the Josephites within our so heard ‘Democracy’ is worrying, they modernize in such a way where they create an entirely new state-The Adunian Republic to put it simply-avoid of what made our Empire Orenian. Our state must be reformed in such a way in which all men have the freedom & liberties that our ancestors ever so emphasized, If i am to be elected, I & my party will restore such greatness through proper legislature to both combat the Josephite Machine alongside with creating an equal ground for both parties, how a Democracy should be.

WHAT FREDERICK SHALL DO

• Will put an end to Josephite superiority & the slow degeneration of Imperial tradition.
•  Will remove the Josephite ambition of ruining our Empire’s economy for themselves.
• All anti-Canonist & legislative reform that contradict the holy scripture will be countered with a block.
• Will put a great emphasis on Piety within the HOC.
• Will keep enforce the thought of Morality & honesty within the Imperial government.
• Political Moderation will be of attention.
• The rights of man will have opportunities to live a suitable life without having to worry about class.
