  1. [!] Representation of lavishly adorned coronation day halls The moment has come to lay aside the generation and elect a new leader, The Republic of Vikela's Paramount deserves a full celebration and coronation, which is now. One that the previous paramount never experienced, a sigh of relief within the realm, the bright optimism that the river will wash away the doubts as the roots are washed anew. This Grand Harvest, the coronation will take place in the courtroom of the Vemvane Ardrossan Castle. Following the coronation, the new Paramount will offer a brief address, to start their first day a festival will be held within the gate to square to celebrate. As long as goodwill is maintained, all are invited to the coronation. Please be mindful that everyone will be searched at the gate.

  4. ISSUED AND CONFIRMED BY PARAMOUNT LEIKA DE ASTREA VALLLO TOUJOU COURI VALLHIUW Through the years, countrymen, it has come to my attention that one issue has slipped through my eyes as I was convinced, I had done so, but the public never saw the official document and sign-off so the public never affronted it. So, by the legislation of the Council of Ministries, Heir Apparent & Heir-Consort, and Her Grace the Paramount, it is officially decreed today that the state of Duchy of Elysium and its titles, all territory that was burned to a crisp restored and liberated from the dominion of what was and all-encompassing under its vast and harsh culture dissolved. With the final of the Title of Duke of Elysium dying off Eugeo De Astrea stripped him of all titles as well as any decadent that may hold any decree, title, or issue. May you not place the responsibility for his actions: the face of catastrophe on others. A single man's views, actions, or goals have no bearing on Vikela's leadership or council, and his actions do not represent the faces of many. Any references to Elysium and Eugeo will be removed from the melancholy stories since the citizens do not wish to think about such a tragic history. His misdeeds do not and never will represent our future. It's time to start anew as Vikela.

To preserve and bequeath to his rightful heirs. He is entrusted with maintaining law and security within his domains, supporting the ruling Paramount's jurisdiction, diligently safeguarding the republic's interests, and wielding his sword to defend his home country. His Lordship, Bannerlord Lorec Bani Stormheart has been named the regent of Ubuntu and will serve as Cyprien's counselor until he is of legal age.
  8. Vikelian "Mud alone is worthless, but when mixed with water and creatively shaped, it may be used to make bricks. Those bricks can be used to build helpful buildings. Introduction to the Culture: Vikelian might be viewed as a family of civilized individuals or as a community that is considerably more powerful than any one person. treating everyone as a single, huge family, regardless of their differences in race or species. Vikelian serves as the glue that holds people together. leveraging their indigenous, ancient, and more contemporary wood elf traditions to forge something that will be much more valuable to others around them. History: Vikelian emerged from the ashes of a group's decisions, which were first rocky due they considered that the leadership had dealt with them poorly. However, as the legacies continued, despite the many deaths defending it, they worked tirelessly to preserve what was formerly known as Elysium. Before the glove was tossed to the ground and the civil war broke out, the ruling family declared, "Enough is enough; if we can't salvage the fading embers, we'll spark a new fire."and start a clean fire, they attempted their best to accomplish all they could to create Vikela. Despite the fact that many people still used the label "Elysium," they toiled in the background to exert their best efforts before emerging and becoming Vikela. Using a blend of elvish and Auvergne to develop a new language that was unique to them, this new era of individuals was founded from several different historical maps and settlements. Norlands,Lunsbeck of the Aedellands, Elysium and Republic of Vikela. Though it may be confusing to hear such at first, it is used so seldom and rarely in full phrases that it is very simple to catch up on. Silachian A combination of elvish and Auvergene combined with a slang of the words that can not be comprehended in a way to an outsider, the typical Auvergne may take the words with horrifying contempt but the others will be faced with a haunting slang of the words that may be picked up as elvish. With its few popular expressions, the language itself should be utilized modestly. Numbers un, in - one Dé - two trò, trwa - three Kat - four Sink - five Sis - six Sèt - seven Wit - eight Nèf - nine Dis - ten Common phrases Bonayla! - Hello Heyalez afær? - How are things? heya ça va? - How are you doing? Çé ayla / Mo byin. - I’m good, thanks. Wa plitar. - See you later. Mo Mayli twa. - I love you. Swènn-tali. - Take care. Bonayla. - Good Morning Bonker. - Good night Common Sayings Une gueule de Vallitier - A mouth like holy water fountain (used to describe an ugly man) Une figure lenpomme cuite - A face like a baked apple (used to describe an attractive woman) Pauvres diables - poor devils (used to mock poor people) Un berrbleur - a hot air shooter Un tonnerre a la voile - an unruly person Frou-frou - giddy Menterlien - a lie/liar valllo toujou couri vallhiuw. - The water always goes to the river Coupé zoré milet fait pas faesu. - Cutting off the mule’s ears doesn’t make it a horse Compé Torti va doucement, mais li rivé coté bite pendant Compé Chivreil apé dormi. - Tortoise goes slowly, but he arrives at the barrel while Roe Deer is sleeping. beloun conné sir qui bois l'apé frotté. - The pig knows well on which wood it will rub. Chirr jappô li pas morde. - The barking dog doesn’t bite. Charre brilé pair di feu. - The burnt cat is afraid of fire. Bouki fait gombo; lapin mangé li. - The goat makes the gumbo; the rabbit eats it. Cila qui rit Un lensuloem va pleuré a liewy’ento: . - Whoever laughs on Friday will cry on Sunday. Craché nen laire, li va tombé enhaut vou nez. - Spit in the air, and it will fall on your nose. The significance of a culture's language is less related to the words used and more related to the community. In a greeting, asking about your family is more respectful than using titles since it demonstrates that someone cares more about you than the formalities of your title. If something is truly important to them, they would behave accordingly rather than just say it. Society: Vikela has been governed by a matriarchal society since its founding, with the queen or duchess serving as the head of state. Even though the new land of their nation was originally started by a king, the work failed under his rule, so his daughters took over and did their best to create the ideal society he had imagined. a reputation unworthy of preservation. To start with, it should be noted that Vikelian is a tanistry rather than an heir apparent. The leader of the settlement, according to a taniasry, is said to search for all noble families, specifically all living noble families, either by blood or by virtue of official titles or positions within Vikelia . The chosen one is designated as the heir and prepared to take the next crown or paramount position. Festivities: Vikelia has a wide variety of festivals that take many diverse forms, despite the fact that the way things are done may appear standard and unremarkable on the surface. THE RIVER FEST One of the most crucial is that the water that flows through the city and its surrounding land is nourishing and offers everyone in the area fresh water, beverages, pastries, and breads, providing life to everyone in the area. SOCIAL SEASON Ahiuw le fleuve, sometimes referred to as the social season. A straightforward metaphor with significant meaning to the populace. Crossing the river signified your transformation into someone new, the realization that you are no longer a child and may now do as you like, and it forged fresh foundational stones for your property. Marriage and love both have their own metaphorical meanings to the ever-rising river, which seldom waits. Such Ahiuw le fleuve was extremely important to Vikelians since there always seemed to be more women than men moving into the city at the same time. As a result, it was up to the ladies to court and flirt with the men in a dignified and honorable fashion. Thus, social season—a year of gatherings hosted by families of the republic to try to find matches—was created. Consider it as a prelude to tying the knot and courtship. Nothing will be finalized before the ink on the two partners' fingers has dried. Beginning with the season's first ball, which is hosted by the following sapphire of the year, is the season of crossing the river. The men should wear a deeper shade of blue, while the ladies should all wear light tones of blue. the first and hardest portion of the season was spent getting to know everyone in order to portray the rivers of their life. Hopefully reaching the 12th ball, the Madris Ras Ball, which is hosted by the Court of River Gems and honors Chalcedony, Jasper, and Sapphire in order of lowest to greatest honor for the season. The court of River Gens is allowed to pick their theme for this party. Ahiuw le fleuve should have many events not such balls, and if you do not find someone love it is also there so you may have a sisterhood or a brotherhood to fallback on to. Traditionally, the women who host the balls are the oldest women in the family, while the younger women dance to attract suitable bachelors. While the younger adults engage in flirting, dating rituals, and other celebrations, the older adults (those who are not single, married, or already have children) play a game called Vingt-en-un (Twenty-One). There are a few dances that are done within the battlefield of the ballroom. Quadrilles,Valses a un temps,Valses a deux temps,Valses a trois temps,Polkas,Polazurkas Clothing and cultural Vikelians are known for their vibrant clothing, which anyone can wear as long as it is appropriate. The attire for funerals and weddings changes significantly when it comes to the conditions of clearance and time needed. One of the oldest traditions is marriage. several traditions are passed down. The bridal gown is handed down from generation to generation.If a bride doesn't have a dress to hand down, her husband or companion must hunt down an animal of their choice and present it to their future spouse to be sewed into their wedding dress, which may be any tint from light pink to traditional white.For a viel for the bride, they must descend a veil made of beaded lace, each bead symbolizing an achievement the two have completed together. This allows the bride to recall each journey and beautiful moment. A lovers' wives legend states that two people fell in love, but in order to keep their relationship a secret from those who would seek to tear it apart, they covered each other's skin with stunning eloquent designs that they themselves had made using their own flowers, symbols, or other memorabilia. Some chose to make their tattoos live, moving and breathing with their very flesh, while others choose to weave jewels into their skin or even use nightglow ink to make it even more covert than one may believe. a love story and tradition that appear to have started the trend There is also the bridal hunt, where everyone dresses in traditional attire, including the bride. AL SAYD A young man is watched by all the women in the home when wooing a woman. From youngest to oldest, each woman must give the potential suitor a simple task to do. The potential suitor needs to look for each one. The conventional bride-to-be is unaware of the responsibilities placed on the groom. The oldest female must be given the task of "conveying the story of the voyage you had to make to your LOVE that has to be the proposal." Funerals are revered by people in their immediate vicinity, just like marriages. When a member of the immediate family passes away, the bereaved family must don grand deuil, or full mourning clothes, for six months. Men dress in all-black, including their ties and armbands. When in mourning, avoid any white clothing, and women should wear black dresses and headbands. They aren't allowed to wear jewelry. The eldest male relative is required to speak at a funeral. Giving a detailed speech about the lives that were left to drift upon the river to their intended afterlife. Significant cemeteries usually include lavish tombstones above ground. The place of one's ancestors is cherished; to relocate or deface someone's gravestone or ancestral site is considered sinful. Many people have plants or seeds planted beside their body so that, should someone decide to remove it, they would have to dig through the very roots to do so. Religion: Their culture has evolved as a result of its roots in both human civilization and anything like. Using the butterfly mani, Mani and other folklore—possibly because it stares them in the face or because of people mysteriously dispersing. However, word of the folklore god being Anasi started to spread. An extremely clever, cunning, and problematic god named Anansi was turned into a spider by his father Nyame for refusing to give up his cunning ways. Anansi tales are frequently humorous and instructive, showing us the results of our actions and that intelligence is far superior to strength. Things like Mani and other deities like god were taught in stories around a campfire, then among a mass of silent and boring stories. These tales are recounted with a twist of fate to thrill people around them. Other than that, as long as your religious practice does not damage anyone, Vikelia has no objections. Random facts Salmon slap a game when two people swim out to logs in the middle of a lake with uncooked fish in their hands. Then, using the salmon, they try to knock one another off. Thus, the name. It differs from shogging since the ends of the logs often face one another. Rules: 1.) you cannot go on the other person's log 2.) you cannot sit 3.) you can move back and forth on your log 4.) If you are hit and you do not fall off, the game continues 5.) There are three rounds, best two of three wins the game 6) Bystanders can use fishing rods at people Singing this old song was very common in both elevish and auvengere.

  9. YEAR SA 93/ 1893 ISSUE I Homemade Chocolate Cookies Baking cookies is a classic staple in all of baking. Almost everyone knows what they are but not how to make them which is a shame. In this article I will show you how to make a batch of cookies easily. Step 1: gather the following ingredients, 2 1/4 cups of flour, 1 small spoon of salt, 12 1/2 large spoons worth of butter, 2/3 cups of sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 small spoon of vanilla, and a bag of whatever you want in the cookies I suggest walnuts or chocolate chips. Step 2: setting up. Have your furnace preheated for about 8 minutes plus the time it takes you to whip up the dough for the cookies. Step 3: the dough. Whisk your butter and flour in a large bowl, next add your sugar and eggs then whisk it with good effort for about 4 minutes. Then add your vanilla and whatever else you want to add but in this case, we will say chocolate chips. Step 4: baking. Now you have your dough, take a handful of them and play them on a baking track in a circular shape with half an inch of space between each cookie. Place your cookie filled tray in the furnace on the bottom row and leave it for about 12 to 15 minutes. Halfway through, shift it to the top row and it will become golden (the longer you leave them the crunchier the cookies). Finally take them out and let them cool. Penned by Local baker Flour A Query for the people… Who has better cookies… The Mysterious cookie lady.. We apologize for the hastily painted picture. Sadly, we could not get a painting of the woman as she moved so quickly… versus Local Velika baker and musin Flour Mystical magical La devin Libellule has graced us with her horoscopes for the year.

The Crowning of the Stars. https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/215855-a-crowning-within-the-stars/ Elysium stood with a few vassals in the back to watch the crowning and the many gifts. Such a celebration so many people in one place, many talked of how they haven't seen such the east reinstatement of old humans. Larissa, one brave daughter of the De Astrea family stood before Illarion holding an ax of crescent and spoke of protecting their people as well giving their aid to protect this new nation and its people.
  10. The auction of Elysium Issued by The Treasury office, with the corporation of the Stewarding office Within the recent peace of the city, it has lacked a certain "je ne sais quoi", a personal touch that has left the city. The Treasury office, with the corporation of the Stewarding office, has offered up a few items that may go back to the very citizens who make it so lively. A general description of land, property and other unusual propositions will be attached. To participate in such an auction, one must come to the palace feast hall, on Tobias' Bounty, at 4 pm on the saints' hour. If an item is left without a bidder, a steward may be contacted for its original full price rather than the auction's discounted price. It has been noted that if one is still in possession of the Last decade's Tax coins one may use those to bid. Statues and shrines take up so little space within the city, but some people are with the memorialization of having a statue or shrine put in someone's integrity. You will be able to do so by selecting a location anywhere on the capital's public grounds or roads. There will be three statues/shrines being auctioned off, each starting off at 15 mina. Two street names are up for auction. We find PROMENADE DU PALAIS & SYLVANIA are in need of some change, becoming a bit of a mouthful for anyone to say. These street names will be put up bidding so you can name one after your ancestry name or however your mind may name such is truly up to your creativity. The price for these will start at 75 mina, with their full price at 200 mina. Each street will be auctioned off individually. Such is the way of life, with many questions coming to the surface about the Famous Bokolo Tavern, and the shocking news that The Queen-Regnant is allowing the royal crown to give up its holdings in the tavern to allow one to have the full right to own and manage the prime location of a bar. The workers by no means have to stay in the Bokolo tavern's employment and may be given jobs elsewhere in the city or they may stay. They are under no obligation to follow the new owners' employment, but with that being said, their keys will be given up and given to the new owner. Pricing starts at 50 mina fulling runs at 350 mina Sections of the city have been called everything and anything for many years. The Expansion, as we have all been calling it, needs its name, so one might call it The ___ District. One lucky bidder will be given the privilege to be able to rename this district. The price starts at 75 minae and the full pricing runs at 400 minae.

  14. Born again the heart of the fighter - The Elysian Guard With the disbanding of the Lunaran Guard and its members merging with the Elysium Army, a new military is born, the Elysian Guard. The Elysian Guard brings a return of the Elysian Rangers, now fully implemented in the Military, while from the Elysian Army, the wardens rise in the new Military Hierarchy, side by side with the Rangers. Military Hierarchy: Initiate Ranger/Warden Veteran Commander Lord Commander Initiate: The Initiate remains the recruit of the Elysian Guard, meaning that it is a trial period for the one who wants to join the Guard. The Rangers & Wardens: They stand equal in terms of authority, but they have their different duties and priorities. While the Warden patrols the city and roads of the Kingdom, the Rangers scatter and scout the lands, either Elysium’s lands or its enemies, while also taking notice of the monsters and animals that can be found in those lands. Commanders: They are the ones chosen by the Lord Commander and Monarch of Elysium to help lead the Elysian Guard, having the second-highest rank. Lord Commander: The one who leads the Elysian Guard and all of Elysium’s Military, holding the most authority besides the Monarch. Auxiliary roles: These are roles that one can assume if they want to help the guard but do not want or can’t use a weapon: Medic, Mage, Alchemist, Blacksmith, Quartermaster. The Ranger Code Made decades ago and still holds in the sense of honor of Elysium's sons and daughters that serve in its Military. I. If your actions aren’t justified, stop pursuing them. II. Always take the side of morals over the side that’s winning. III. When you feel fear, embrace it. IV. Fight for what you care for, but in a way that others will join you. V. Be free from the past, live in the present, Cultivate the future. VI. Treat others how oneself would like to be treated. VII. A decision made with a calm mind is often the best. VIII. Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a battle. IX. Only fight when it's for a purpose, defending or being provoked. X. Have good character, character is how you act when no one is watching. "Changing times call for adaptive action. Only with emboldened bond can we ensure our survival, as not mere descendants, but as brothers and sisters in arms. And for the cold, a bottle of whiskey never hurt, either." -Avalor Astasel "To restrict oneself to single-tasked dogmatism is a fool's plight. Only through knowledge of the vastly unperceived and wisdom toward that which is unknown may we truly be prepared for all." -Silas Astasel "So yeh want teh be ah man of worthiness eh?

  16. “It went from a spark to an open flame.” Decurions System Placement Elysian Army Hierarchy Auxiliary Positions In the past, a Decurion was the right hand of a Head Ranger, and when the time comes, the Decurion will take the place of the Head Ranger. With the appointment of Ellathor Vanari as the second Lord Commander and his change from the Order of the Boreal Forest to the Elysian Army, the role of Decurions changed. Now, a Decurion serves as an officer of the Lord Commander, in the army, meant to maintain order and uphold the militaries of Elysium. But with this post, a change in the role of the Decurions is due. Now, there shall be five Decurions, each of them leading an arm of the Elysian Army. The new Decurions are named: Decurions Decurion of Infantry - The leading military official of the Elysian Army. Receives any and all members that are promoted from the School Of Initiates and ensures the growth and success of our comrades in arms. Current Acting Member - Alphonse de Astrea @YaBoyJay_ Decurion of The School - This position acts as the Head Recruiter and Instructor, running the Academy for Initiates to help them reach manhood as they ignite into an Enflammer and are moved to the Infantry Corps. The most demanding Decurion seat by far as they manage all acts of Recruitment and Training. Current Acting Member - Pyrin Nria-Crane @oryP Decurion of The Arts - Manages all specialized arts such as alchemical feats to forgery as a blacksmith, truly an assortment of talents to oversee. They sweep all Mages that enter the ranks to give our blossoming Army a unique set of specialites for all. Current Acting Member - (N/A) Decurion of Machinery - Mans all heavy artillery pieces, truly a specialty of cannon crafting and other trinkets. They teach those who wish to learn how to man artillery and craft it. Current Acting Member - (N/A) Decurion of Structure - Handles all Keep Management and projects that may occur within the center of the Military. Promising as to keep track of our barracks and other minimal tasks in the Elysian Army base. Current Acting Member - (N/A) System Functionality Throughout the past we’ve gone through many systems of hierarchy within the Elysium Army. Whether it be a form of companies or the Order of the Boreal Forest. We present a system that has been slaved and discussed over for months now. "Changing times call for adaptive action. Only with emboldened bond can we ensure our survival, as not mere descendants, but as brothers and sisters in arms. And for the cold, a bottle of whiskey never hurt, either." -Avalor Astasel "To restrict oneself to single-tasked dogmatism is a fool's plight.

Any and all Chevaliers have been now moved and are declared to be under The Officer Personnel and shall help guide us into a bright future. All standing members of the army shall use these basic commands as guidelines to how they should act and listen to order. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1orYQRpKtSmt5P8qjKC-olAwx8Y9rSWyWRYZg5GC_Mp4/edit The Soldiers of Elysium are bound by a code of honor that represents the principal set by the first people who defended Elysium. The Ranger Code, remaining to this day, written by the first Lord Commander of Elysium, Absolon de Astrea, brother of the Duke, founder of the Order of the Boreal Forest. I. If your actions aren’t justified, stop pursuing them. II. Always take the side of morals over the side that’s winning. III. When you feel fear, embrace it. IV. Fight for what you care for, but in a way that others will join you. V. Be free from the past, live in the present, Cultivate the future. VI. Treat others how oneself would like to be treated. VII. A decision made with a calm mind is often the best. VIII. Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a battle. IX. Only fight when it's for a purpose, defending or being provoked. X. Have good character, character is how you act when no one is watching. Elysian Army Hierarchy Lord Commander - Ellathor Vanari @Thannon Chosen and sworn to the Duke of Elysium, the one with the title bears the duty to defend Elysium, the people, rule and bring Elysium to greatness through the total command of the army and all of the fighting forces. Military Chancellor - Togrim Heartstring-Vanari @Northtitan The Second after the Lord Commander, their extension and help in their duty to Elysium, a Military Chancellor speaks in pairs with the Lord Commander and for the Lord Commander when not present. Decurions - Alphonse De Astrea & Pyrin Nria-Crane These are esteemed people assigned to serve as Captains, as military advisor to the Lord Commander and to maintain order in the army. Chevaliers Translating directly from the Auvergne word for "knight," these brave famed warriors who made their name known in Elysium thought of their elevated skill and reputation. Enflammers People honored by Elysium and its citizens as soldiers and enforcers of Elysian law that have earned their stripes after going through the rigorous training being an Initiate demand. Initiates Something that always remained through the decades of the military, was the initiate. The one who wishes to join Elysium's might but must go through the Initiates School. Auxiliary Positions Quartermaster - The one assigned to keep the inventory of the army and make sure the guards, no matter the rank, have food and their armor and weapons are repaired and ready for use. Blacksmith - Weapons and armor makers, often seen in the forge or courtyard, perfecting their craft and Elysium's equipment. Alchemist - If one creates weapons and armor, the Alchemist can create anything, from different cognitions and potions. Among many things. Medic - The person who you will meet very often in your life, and will probably buy them a drink at the nearest tavern. The medics are those trained to keep their allies from succumbing to death with their knowledge in healing. With the Medic there is one rule: Do not piss the Medic. Mage - Unlike the other roles within the army that can be bounded by a rank, a mage serving Elysium does not have one and is recognized by the special abilities they possess. Joining. If the thought of joining is in your mind, you are welcomed to join in the Art of Greatness. You can fill this paper and send it to Elysium.
