Results of the Moot
Declared in the year 172 S.A.
To the Followers of Fnod’s Way,
A God’s Day has passed since the gathering of the Skanarri people within the sacred Highlands. A Moot was held by those present, hosted and overseen by Halfdan Stálstígvél who blessed the event in the sight of the Alfaðir and the Gods. The assembly of Skanarri was asked to put forth names, three of whom were nominated.
Once three candidates had been selected, the assembly of Skanarri was to choose between a Blood Moot or a Vocal Moot. Seeking to appease Bjorn the Berzerker, God of War, the assembly settled upon the more common Blood Moot. After a vicious three-way battle between the candidates, only one emerged victorious; Sindri Adalsteinn. Upon his victory, Sindri was anointed by the present High Priest and declared the Chieftain of the Skanarri, Inheritor of the Prophets, and the leader of the True Highlanders.
Let all followers of Fnod’s Way rejoice and all enemies of the Skanarri shake in their boots, for no longer will the Skanarri be divided by bitter internal squabbles. The Age of Humiliation ends today.
Signed,
Sindri Adalsteinn, Chieftain of the Skanarri, Inheritor of the Prophets, and Leader of the True Highlanders
Halfdan Grejonsson Stálstígvél, High Priest of the Red Pantheon, Bearer of the Eternal Flame, Servant of the Gods
SpoilerIf you'd like to play a Skanarri persona, reach out to me on discord @ ragnarakajavvy ! The Skanarri are a very tribal, nomadic, and war-like culture that aims to dive into the more forgotten elements of Highlander roleplay, so if you're interested then give it a shot!

A Call to the Skanarri
Called upon in the year 171 S.A.
To my Kinsmen and the Followers of Fnod’s Way,
I am Halfdan Grejonsson Stálstígvél. Some of you among the ranks of my Clan or Tribe may know of me already, but it is of little importance. For too long, the Skanarri have sat idly as the North has been ravaged by Colonists. Haensemen, Reinmaren, Norlanders, Aeltarosi, Ravenmirians, and Alimereans have all laid claim upon the North where our Sons and Daughters have roamed for decades. This gross invasion of the Tundra where Fnod Stofnandi once proclaimed it to be sacred ground mustn’t be tolerated.
I therefore call all of our people, young and old, big or small. Come to the Highlands of Braevos and gather as a collective once more. Let the flame of the Alfaðir light the way of His faithful in our path of choosing a new leader. Just as it was in the glory days, let it be so that I call a Moot of the Skanarri people to choose a Chieftain to lead us in both finding our way and cleansing the Tundras of those unfit to call it home.
Signed,
Halfdan Grejonsson Stálstígvél

Manius the Younger smiles, having sacrificed his Eye in the defense of Caelia. "Caelia Invicta! The Scanarii will not best us."
Meanwhile, a certain group of Skanarri licked their wounds after the recent battle. Who knew what their next moves would be?

The body of Vicente Murietta II laid there, surrounded in a pool of his own blood and covered by a tarp. His last moments spent cursing Haense, cursing those he saw as conspirators, and cursing those he saw as betraying the ideals of Hyspia. Would his predictions come to pass, or would they be remembered as the final ravings of a war-scarred man who lost his mind in his final moments? Time would tell, but Vicente himself would never know. All he would know is death, and whatever came after.

"I pray they will allow me to partake in this siege." said Vicente Murietta II, the Colonel of Hyspia and a fervent hater of Darkspawn. He prepared to make his way to the Oyashiman city to see if they'd let him fight alongside them.

Henry Arthur Haverlock, the current Regent of the County of Talentine and House Haverlock, looks over the missive curiously. He proceeds to hand the missive to his various bannermen to see their opinions. "Gentlemen, it appears we are not the subject of controversy this time! A Haverlock win!"

Manius Manlius Capitolinus the younger read the missive with a somber expression, still reeling from the loss of the previous Praefectus. Nonetheless, Manius knew his Father would do well in such a position and he looked forward to his rule.

"Brother, you may not have been a paragon of virtue, but you were still my Brother. The House of Haverlock will survive, as shall your children. I swear this upon my life." said Henry Arthur Haverlock, Robert's younger brother and the apparently new regent of the Family and its estates. Henry packed his bags and prepared to move to the Haverlock estate, as well as try his best to comfort his sister-in-law.

Henry Arthur Haverlock, the youngest brother of Robert and the Uncle to the Triplets, made a mental note to come visit them some time. He determined that he would be the cool Uncle that would let the Kids get away with anything and everything. "Welcome to the world, my Niecephews."

What are your thoughts on your vassals and/or settlers in your land fighting one another in inter-vassal conflicts with regards to this blanket approval?

Vicente Murietta II smiles extremely proudly as he reads his wife's work, and he promptly has a copy of the missive framed next to his work tools. He mentally reminds himself to tell his Wife how proud he is of her and thinks about taking her on a nice date. "Well done, mi amor." Vicente said to himself as he grabbed his farming tools and went back to work.

Gentlemen, your friendly neighborhood CT member has arrived once more with a random question for everyone. Do you believe that Guerilla Warfare/Insurgency RP is effective? Now, let's define "effective" in this context. By "effective", I mean bringing about the intended change that the Insurgency/Guerrillas originally set out for. From what I remember (and based on what oldheads have told me), Guerrilla warfare/Insurgencies aren't and weren't used very frequently over the course of the Server's history. But, when they do happen, I feel like they can be an outlet for strong RP. Let me know what you think and feel free to debate as much as you want! Just don't get too heated please.

A Dwed who had previously remained far from his Kin heard the news of the ultimatum from one of his numerous sons. Having thought it over, Urugail Hailstorm decided to pack his belongings and finally return home.
"Death tae th'enemies o' Urguan. Oi shall pay me ol' friend Sigrun a visit."

"VIVA HYSPIA! THE WAR IS OVER!" roared Vicente Murietta II as he immediately went to hug his wife Mariposa ( @tadabug2000) as well as his three children. At last, Vicente could live the calm life he had always sought with his family.

"A Child! A Child! Who in DIOS' name murders a Child?!" Vicente II shouted out from his balcony in Hyspia after hearing of the death during a break. Not much could shake the seasoned soldier, but the murder of children was something Vicente could never bear to hear

A Call for Calm
Scribed by Vicente Murietta II
To the People of Hyspia and whomever else it may concern,
I among others have heard of the tensions between denizens of Aevos, particularly Hyspians, and the Paladins of Xan. I have heard stories of both sides and, as a man who is both Hyspian and a neutral party in this quickly escalating affair, I call for calm between my fellow citizens of Hyspia. It is not the responsibility of private citizens to call for a bounty on others, nor is it the responsibility of others to make demands of a Government which has had little to no involvement in this rapid chain of events. Instead, I urge calm among my citizens so none of us make a decision we will regret for our lives.
I thereby call for the following, but do not demand:
- The Government of Hyspia issue a proper investigation into the manner at hand (that being the issue of the bounty upon the Paladins and the accusations levied upon them)
- The patience of both sides during this investigation until a verdict is made
- The refrainment of bloodshed, arrests, or other violent acts
We as Hyspians have seen what political divides can do to our society. Our Ancestors have faced the horrors of the Hyspian Schism, let us thus not allow our temperaments to get the better of us until the Hyspian Government may make its verdict known. Choose peace, in the name of DIOS, not escalation.

"What the actual **** is happening and why is it happening so quickly?!" shouted Vicente Murietta II within his home, which promptly caused his two infant children to start crying due to the noise. Heaving a sigh, Vicente went off to care for his kids.

Vicente Murietta II proceeds to sit in his chair in frustration, amazed at how quickly people were rushing to conclusions and how quickly everything was escalating. He went off to find his friend Alexander and prayed he could convince him to calm down just a tad.

Vicente Murietta goes back to babysitting his kids, happy to know the rightful title of his Liege was placed upon the paper. He then gives a cheer to the Covenant and its victorious campaign thus far! He pledges to be at the next siege, since he missed the last.

The Dissolution of Aeltarys
SE SIKAGON HEN EMBERS
Issued on the 12th of the Sun’s Smile, 163 S.A.
To all Citizens, Allies, and whomever else it may concern,
Recently, it has come to the attention of the Crown of Aeltarys that our nation, as it stands, is not in a position in which it can recover from the Great Plague which devastated our lands and rid us of much of our population. After much consideration, Our Crown has come to the conclusion that it is a cruelty to those who call themselves Aeltarosi to force them to remain within a state that is in permanent and irreversible decay.
Though the dream of an Aeltarosi state shall persist until a time more suitable, We encourage Our subjects to go forth into the world. Mingle with those who you previously would avoid, and share the Aeltarosi culture with those who will have you.
On the matter of Aeltarosi titles;
-
The House of Roa, a leal and loyal subject of Aeltarys throughout its time as an independent state, shall be permitted to maintain their titles as Counts of Erice and other lesser titles the House may possess. Our Crown hereby does release the House of Roa from its vows of loyalty to the now-defunct Crown of Aeltarys, and wishes its members luck in establishing roots elsewhere
-
The House of Valraenos, the Royal Family of Aeltarys, shall maintain their titles while demoting the title of Grand Prince to the Archduchy of Aeltarys in a landless state. The Heirs to the House of Valraenos in its unlanded state shall remain as the Counts of Tanaeros.
-
All houses of Aeltarys bearing a title of the peerage are hereby released from their oaths and are permitted to maintain the titles given unto them by the Crown of Aeltarys.
Zālagon Jehikagrī,
HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS, Maegor Valraenos of Aeltarys,
Archduke of the Aeltarosi, Duke of Dragardun, Prince of Dragonclaw Island
SpoilerThank you to all who made this attempted project fun while it lasted. Unfortunately I along with others felt that it was best to let Aeltarys go, as many different circumstances caused Aeltarys to no longer be viable as an independent nation. I thank the many people who worked hard to make Aeltarys and the Aeltarosi a reality, and I encourage those who have an Aeltarosi to continue playing them. Though Aeltarys no longer exists as an independent nation, it will live on through those who continue to play in the culture. We had a good run gents, but it was better for it to come to its conclusion. Thanks for tagging along

The current Regent of Talentine, Henry Arthur Haverlock, strokes his beard as he gazes at the missive. "My Canonist brethren shall not go without aid. Muster the Bannermen." he said to his friend and bannerman, Aleksandr of Talentine. @TheShinyHodzic
