Although I'm quite late to the party here, will state that I think the size of Anthos is ideally the size we should have. If not slightly bigger. It's the first map that I was on when I joined, and it was a really good one. In Anthos, you can walk towards nations quite easily. I think someone the Admins should look towards is creating an antag within the map. As within Anthos, we had the Black Scourage that lived in the frozen north. We'd walk in and there we'd have ET/ST members ready to start roleplay. We'd have interactions or schedule a bit with the team to do expeditions. Within these expeditions, you won't ever get super deep into it as that was saved later. That being the entire map gathering together to put an end to them, one that I believe later led towards them coming back with the map ending. Fantasy biomes can be good, as it brings more uniqueness to the server's maps. You can create different variations of antag in some of these places if need be as well. For Aevos, I'm quite bored of it and wish we were looking towards a new map, as I believe that two years is a good timeframe to be on a map. Though not hitting the 2-year mark yet, we should be talking about the new map around this time and building hype for a map change. Hopefully, we won't have a lot of delays like we had going into this map as I know we went through like 3 or 4 map designers or whatever it was to get the world set up.

A LETTER TO THE ROYAL DUMA: The Age of Inheritance Revision Act __________________ Before the enactment of ‘The Right of Age Edict’, the old Haeseni law of early adulthood wherein youths assumed positions of power as Lords or even Koengs was at the tender age of fourteen. It was not until the passing of the royal edict under Koeng Sigismund III, that the age of inheritance was changed to eighteen. Additionally, it was noted that the passage of the edict was motivated by the acknowledgment that “men live longer than they once did,” emphasizing significant challenges and traumas faced by young Lords without the guidance of a regent. Consequently, despite its good intentions, the Canonist Church stated for the past 200 years and 55 years before the Edict that the age of majority is sixteen. To which deems it the appropriate age at which adulthood is reached, and full responsibility for one’s actions is attained. That being said, it is a must that we keep our standards of inheritance aligned with the Canonist Church. Signed, HIS GRACE, Sigmund Karl of House Ludovar, Duke-Consort of Aimdelinne, Baron of Isaakev, Heir to the Duchy of Kvasz, Sergeant of the B.S.K INTRODUCTION This section updates the age of inheritance from eighteen to sixteen within the Haurul Caezk. Thus, aligning Haensei’s right of inheritance to the age of sixteen. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ The Haurul Caezk sections within the LAW OF THE NOBILITY will be amended. It shall read: Chapter II. “Regarding inheritance, disownment, and bastardry” ii.i: When a landed peer is below the age of sixteen, a Regent, who shall be chosen by the late landed peer or by the consensus of the House, shall manage their affairs. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ The Haurul Caezk sections within the LAW OF THE PEOPLE will be amended. It shall read: Chapter III “Regarding contractual agreements” iii.i: All those above the age of sixteen may sign a contract, which must be either verbal or written and must be upheld by the agreeing parties. iii.ii: Those under the ages of sixteen may sign a contract with the consent of their legal guardian.

In the mountains of Isaakev, inside the Heir's tower, Sigmund Ludovar sat idly in his office. It was a while until he heard the news of the King's death. "A sad day for the Kongzem, as it always is when a Koeng departs from this world. Yet, as we all know, when one Crow King falls, another is there to take up the mantle, ready to build upon the legacy left behind for them. So.." he'd state raising his goblet filled with carrion black towards the window as he looked out. "All hail Koeng Karl, fourth of his name."

Not gonna do a list but I will say, the most underrated/overlooked nation on the server is simply Norland. It's the only human nation that has its own religion, at least to my knowledge, and it's pretty cool. Its culture is very much intriguing and enticing at least to me. Sadly, I have not been around in Norland since my last Norlandic character last year, which was when it had its last monarch. But I will state, that those days that I spent in Norland were very fun and something that I desperately needed during that time. Anyhow, I'm hoping that I can make a solid return to Norland in the near future. Besides that I also feel like the dwarves and orcs, those two races are the most overlooked races on the server. And likely the most unplayed despite its own intriguing culture and RP dynamics. The top nations though on the server currently are likely Haense and Numendil.

A CROW’S LONG ROAD HOME: A TALE OF PURPOSE AND REFLECTION "For what I have found is that true power lies not in the title, but in the ability to wait for it without losing sight of your worth." Sigmund Ludovar to his father, Duke Henrik-Otto Ludovar upon his return The frigid winds of Haense howled like a beast through the snow-covered hills as Sigmund Ludovar stood at the edge of Isaakev Castle, his gaze fixated on the white landscape and rocky mountains around it. Its towering stone walls had grown to be a reminder of his recent shortcomings and had begun to feel like a prison. The title of Duke’s heir, which he had held prior as a badge of honor, now weighed heavily on him like a burden. With each failure seemed etched into the very stone, the memory of his dismissal as Deputy by the new Palatine, Milena, and his defeat in the election for Lord Speaker by Sigmar Ruthern. The same Ruthern who had taken his former position as the Deputy Palatine. After a few days of reflection along with mounting frustration, Sigmund realized that he must take leave as staying within the walls of Isaakev had only deepened his sense of failure. The weight of his failures had begun to suffocate him. Thus, being unable to bear such disappointment he had felt in the eyes of those closest to him, he decided to leave where he sought clarity in the snowy mountains north of his homeland. For months, Sigmund had walked along in the bitterly cold weather, where he only carried bare essentials. Each night, as he huddled by a small fire in the shadows of the mountains, his thoughts turned inward. And it was within these thoughts, that memories continued to haunt him. The memories of the day he had received the letter of his dismissal, its cold words still had cut deeper than the winter air that now surrounds him. Then came the Speaker election, a moment he thought would be the time to show his true worth, only to be ended by yet another defeat. As the memories deepened further, he began to see the disappointment in his father’s eyes, the silent judgment of his peers, and the bewilderment of his wife, who did not understand why someone of such status and capability was unable to rise within his own Kingdom. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In the mountains, surrounded by the silent cold winds, Sigmund crouched low, his eyes scanning the frosted grounds for signs of movement. As he hunted for food, he would begin to reflect on his childhood. He began to recall the days spent as a ward under the late Palatine, Ivo. A time in his early life when he learned the importance of advisement, research, and ambition. Though Ivo was a stern yet patient mentor, and it was under his guidance that Sigmund truly flourished. Yet even then, a lingering weight pressed upon him, a sense that his path would never be easy. One similar to his mentor, who didn’t reap his rewards until way late in his life. And it is from this moment of reflection, a forgotten memory would come to light, a fortune he had received long ago before he was a ward. The words of it began to come to him, echoing in the stillness as if spoken anew by the seer who had foretold his future. “"Ten of wands. You will carry a great burden, young man. This may be a duty to your family, or a challenging job, but you will carry this burden alone. See how the man labors under the weight of the wood he carries? But, he's approaching home. The village is in the distance. You will succeed in life, as he has succeeded. He has made it through the worst of his labor, and now he may reap his reward. You will reap your own rewards."" It was for the first time in a long time since his departure, that Sigmund allowed the weight of those words to finally settle upon him. The fortune had never promised an easy path, not had it foretold swift success. Instead, it spoke of burdens carried alone, just as he now carried the weight of his failures. The man in the fortune labored and struggled under the crushing weight of responsibility, but the village, the sign of hope, was always in sight. As the months continued to pass, Sigmund found solace within isolation. The mountain had become his place of reflection, their vastness reminding him of the insignificance of his failures. He began to realize that his true battle was not against those who had risen above him or cast him aside, but within himself. It was only his pride that was his true downfall. He had tied his worth to titles, to power, to recognition from others. But here, in the silence within the snowy mountains, he understood that his worth came not from the positions he had previously held, but from the strength of his character. He had forgotten the teaching of his mentor, Ivo, the importance of patience, wisdom, and service not for one’s glory but for the betterment of others. He had carried the burden of his family’s status, his ambitions, and the expectations from Haense’s leadership, but he had yet to learn how to carry them with grace. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Into the second new year, Sigmund rose from what had been his shelter for the last few years in the mountains. The snow had fallen thick upon each passing night, continuously blanketing the world in a soft, quiet peace. As he stood idle for a long while, gazing towards the horizon of the mountains he knew it was time to go home. His time in the mountains had not brought forth any sort of answers to which he had hoped, nor had it lifted the weight of his burdens. Yet it had given him something far more valuable, a sense of clarity. With some sort of renewed purpose, Sigmund packed his belongings and began his long walk back home to Isaakev. As he did, the words of the fortune continued to echo in his mind, not as a distant prophecy that was once forgotten, but as a symbol of truth he had begun to understand. He would carry his burdens, but he would carry them with honor. And in time, he would reap the rewards of his labor, not for the titles or power that comes with it, but for the peace that comes from knowing ones own worth. And so, Sigmund Karl Ludovar, heir to the Duchy of Kvasz, had returned home, not as the man who had left in despair, but as one who had found himself in the solitude of the icy mountains, ready to face what is to come in his future. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ (Thanks to @Kaii for reading it over) ( Context: I took a hiatus for the last two weeks. Now I am back )

Sigmund Ludovar dips his head, upon hearing the news. Without delay, he made his way to the basillica. As he entered its halls he'd make way towards the alter, to which he would lit a candle, watching the flame flicker to life. "There were times to which we did niet always see eye to eye." he'd whisper, his gaze fixated on the flame. "But vyr service to this Kongzem was unwavering. Yet now Godani seems to have called vy to rest, Tatiyana, and with that vy should be proud of the legacy vy've built in this life. Niet just for this great Kongzem, but for House Ruthern as well." As Sigmund spoke these words quietly, standing still as the flame continued to flicker, its small light casting shadows around him. "May Godani Bless Tatiyana, and House Ruthern."

A DUCAL ANNOUNCEMENT: THE BIRTH OF A LUDOVAR Ludovar c.o.a’s A saint day ago, a noble birth occurred in the halls of Isaakev. The birth of this child brings even more light and hope to this ducal family’s future. And it is this that we offer our gratitude to Godani for blessing this family with yet another Ludovar. Now let me introduce the fourth-born son of Sigmund and Elaine, Fredrik Nikolas Ludovar. May Godani always keep an ever-watchful eye over him. @FredrickTeufel HIS GRACE, Sigmund Karl of House Ludovar, Duke-Consort of Aimdelinne, Baron of Isaakev, Heir to the Duchy of Kvasz, Lord Handler of the Royal Duma, Sergeant of the B.S.K HER ROYAL HIGHNESS, Elaine Catrinne Ludovar née Temesch of the Petra, Duchess of Aimdelinne, Baroness-Consort of Isaakev

Sigmund Ludovar sighs upon reading the missive, as he had hoped to remain in the position to continue the legacy Erik and him had done during his own tenure. Though he'd congratulate Sigmar in regaining Deputy status underneath his sister once more.

Sigmund Ludovar gives a slight nod as he read. "Have to say this is was very well written. Good job to the courts on this work."

As Sigmund Ludovar sat in his study at Isaakev readying to head to the Duma, the missive of appointment would arrive, a wave of disbelief and disappointment washed over him as he read it. He'd slowly rise from his chair and make his way to the fireplace, tossing the missive into the flames. As he stood there watching it, the flames began to gently burn the missive before heading out.

Sigmund Ludovar, the Deputy Palatine, lowered his head letting out a deep sigh as read the missive. Now seeing it being official. "Erik was a good boss. Many may have mixed opinions of his tenure, but he served the realm to the best of his ability. He walked with great pride and respect for our Kongzem and its laws as Palatine. Now for my future it seems I shall continue to have my doubts, though all I can say is that I hope retirement from the council chambers serves him well. May GODANI continue to bless vy and House Kortrevich"

"Interesting rumors here. Perhaps some may need investigating." Sigmund states as he read the article.

Sigmund Ludovar, the heir to the Duchy of Kvasz, returns to Isaakev where he would inform his wife and children of the promotion.

Sigmund Ludovar dips his head. "He has nothing but serve in his life with no breaks. But now it is the time for him to rest. Rest in peace, Rickard."
