A DECLARATION OF CONDEMNATION Here follows a missive direct from the Palace in Cyrilsburg: Some time ago, our most rightful Prince and Lord, His Serene Highness Alfred Cyril of the Princely House of Devereux, did construct an alliance with the Kingdom of Renatus-Marna. Our people’s did live in freedom and peace alongside them, we harboured no malice towards those that now defile our lands. Yet, they who were invited into our lands were done under the guise of friendship and of alliance. But now their deeds of cruelty, massacre, violence, pillage, arson, imprisonment, robbing, and numerous other outrages against our people, indiscriminate towards sex or rank, do incite us to condemn their actions on this most sombre of days. It is self evident that the plague of Renatian aggression has done nothing but compel the suffering of our people. The Principality of Curon has had enough. It will no longer stand for the strong-armed realpolitiks of the Kingdom of Renatus-Marna, bullying its allies in a submission through subverse and abhorrent diplomatic tactics. The Government of Renatus-Marna is characterised through its total disregard for international order, its disrespect for the sovereignty of states, and its proclivity to wage war without any means of peace and compromise. Our affiliation with the Northern Atlas Alliance was founded upon the belief that, through a collective security and assured compromise, human order would reconcile to some end. Only now have we seen the insufferable appetite of the Renatian state for subjugation and political expediency. Having previously sworn beside their banner, it is clear that the Kingdom of Renatus-Marna is no bastion of human unity, faith, or prosperity as they so assert. Rather, it is a den of wolves, villainously encroaching on the right of a people to live with virtue and stability. But from these countless evils we will be set free, by the help of Him, who preserves our liberties and protects all those who rightly, and proudly, call themselves Canonist. If those forces named attempt to make us or our people a subject of their tyrannical government, we shall exert ourselves at once, and at full force, to drive them out, as an enemy to the people’s liberties and rights. For, as long as a hundred of us remain alive, we will never, under any conditions, allow ourselves to be subjugated to the lordship of the Renatians. It is not for glory, or for riches, nor for the honour of battle; but for the freedom and the people who are proud to call themselves Curonian - and will die for their country. MAY GOD DEFEND AND PRESERVE US Written in Cyrilsburg on the 8th of Sun’s Smile in the year of Our Lord, sixteen-hundred and sixty-one.

"There's a surprising amount of ad hominem attacks when one of these missives are published. I wish they could respond to the actual argument itself for once!" an old man exclaimed, walking out of the gates of Senntisten for the last time.

"Evidently your puppet has not taught you well enough in Canonical doctrine - which teaches us that humanity are the chosen descendants of Horen, and that we are all brethren in the eyes of GOD, if you are able to follow that logic well enough, you would see that the murder of an innocent human Canonist is kinslaying by the fundamental principles of scripture" the elderly Savoyard commented to himself, before making the mental note of Horen 1:1-3: "I am the Lord God without peer, and I separated the World from the Void, and placed the lesser and greater lights into the sky, and breathed life into all the beasts of the earth. And I have also breathed life into thy heart, and the hearts of thy children. And as I have given thee life, I am thy father, as am I father of all things. And so I shall guide thee in the theatre of virtue, and the most virtuous shall not live without me and My Word." "Didn't you have your distant cousin, the Emperor, sent to death too?"

"Ad hominem" is all that the eighty-three year old man said, having been born in 1577. He then paused, creased up his brows, and pondered upon whether the King of Renatus-Marna had just discredited the words of two High Pontiffs.

IN DEFENCE OF THE GLOBAL ASSEMBLY OF NATIONS AND A CRITIQUE OF THE PONTIFICAL INSTITUTION “THE CHURCH BOWS TO NO MORTAL MAN” --- High Pontiff Emeritus Clement III The axe falls for Lotte Baptiste as the world rages on in a constant churn of maligne war and destruction, of alienation and of betrayal. Today I have witnessed the worst of humanity, but also the best of it. The Global Assembly is the world’s, arguably, greatest institution of its time - albeit continuously belittled, antagonised, and misunderstood. Yet, despite the monochronistic expulsions of the Global Assemblies harshest critics, with their lips frothing with sheer delight at the deprivation of humanity, the institution is positioning itself to stand the test of time. I write this declaration from a perspective uncommon to this bloodlusting world. I have seen, in my long life, the death of the fifth empire, the wars of Courlandic conquest, the rise of the sixth empire, the fracturing of the sixth empire, the ruthless and reckless butchery of a young boy aged no more than twelve simply because he was ordained by a priest and wore a crown. I have overseen resignation, nomination, competition and coronation. So what point do I attempt to fashion? Simply that no one power is forever. And as the world churns that same hostility all over again, I come to the realisation that the mediation of powers, the harmonious cacophony of acclamation, and the baseline humanity which is instilled within every one of from our conception by a higher power is only possible with the Global Assembly of Nations. And it is a false assumption to conclude that the Global Assembly is a passive institution that will allow the dictators and tyrants of our world to step over it, for this perpetuates the illusion of inaction. The Global Assembly has the grit, and it has the will, to solve our current problems and bring forth that resounding and victorious chorus of peace and prosperity. And the critics may ridicule it for being an accumulation of redundant and useless legal niceties, and they may condemn the institution for being little more than a ponderous prolepsis. But the truth is that it will take many decades for its careful institutions to establish the norms that we will one day say underpin our shared principles and common understanding of humanity. One fundamental argument against the Global Assembly of Nations is that it promotes a “globalist government run by third-rate bureaucrats”. Yet, the irony still lingers that the Global Assembly itself is, by its very nature, not a globalist institution. It is instead the inevitable amalgamation of international relations, trade, treaties or alliances. Contrastingly, globalisation refers to the global integration of nationstates economies into one singular economy and market. This misunderstanding is a common one to those uneducated in “third-rate bureaucracy”. Decidedly, therefore, the Global Assembly is NOT a globalist institution fixated upon destroying national sovereignty. It is, however, an institution based on the beliefs that compromise and dignity are the only way for us, as faithful men of GOD, to prosper. It is not without a contrite heart and a profound conscience that any man may duly see the depravity of the conduct that the Holy Canonist Church exudes. For decades now, its radical approaches to secular affairs and its encroachments on the souls of men under their own burdensome weight of corrupt institutionalism have perverted the benevolence of GOD and the divine providence of the Seven Skies. I move now to the ills that infirm the Mystical Body of the Church and its constituent clergy whoso mistakenly identify themselves as the “Servants of GOD.” With the accession of His Holiness, Jude I, the Church has experienced a new era shaped by the political events that have occurred. While claiming no temporal power, His Holiness has used the awesome power of his office to chill the voices of his flock and subvert the august body of the Global Assembly that has for so long sought for a political solution across Atlas. The alignment of The Kingdom of Renatus-Marna, his chosen Fidei Defensor, with that of foreign entities deemed un-Canonist in nature, the subsequent silence of the Church and the complacency of His Holiness to condemn the aforementioned alliances seems to have forfeited the entirety of his moral authority as Keeper of the Exalted Testaments. Yet, the Canonist Church is so quick to punish and rebuke when other nations commit similar, if not smaller actions. Brethren, it is evident to us today that the Holy Father would take on secular favoritism and forego his spiritual obligations to ALL of humanity. The perversion of the Canon by the institutional church, in particular to the decisions of His Holiness and the indiscriminate violence that he utilises in the Order of St Lucien to intrude on intergovernmental organizations that pursue compromise is nothing short of temporal vice and a folly to his responsibility as a shepherd of the flock. Evident in his pursuits is his utter disregard for the previous teachings of Pontifical exhortation in the life of the Church. In present times, His Holiness has tainted the integrity of his stature in promoting or silently abstaining from correcting social evils within the Church. In 1638, His Late Holiness Everard IV promulgated Pax Dei et Treuga Dei, a decree to mitigate the violent nature of the Kingdom of Renatus-Marna by mandating that by virtue of our Canonist baptism, we are caretakers of humanity, NOT kinslayers. What graver sin is to be had than that of kinslaying our fellow man without the mercy of the Creator in our conscience? Was not Krug condemned for such treachery, and do we not now stand in the judgment before GOD and His saints? For it is written: For I have given to thee the theatre of virtue, and I have ordered the estates of the beasts of the earth and the men who walketh upon it. And thou shalt be without pretense or conceit, for before the mountain, the ant and the aurochs are equally small. So I am the Most High, and in pursuit of My Virtue, I bid thee, My faithful, this: Thou shalt not judge the sufficiency of thy Virtue, be it great or small, for all magnitudes fall short of Me. And I am the Lord God without peer, and My greatness is the only greatness, and My eternity is the only eternity, and all the aeons are open to My servants. Horen 7:3-5 The matter is quite clear to us that the Church does not seek to fulfill its mission to peace and holiness, but rather its goal is to serve as a vessel for the avarice of Renatian interests and justifying its coarse actions via spiritual jurisdiction. As a blatant supporter for security alliances and targeting our beloved and now deceased Chairman Lotte Baptiste, they seek to topple the organization that was founded by a charter of nations to actively propagate dialogue on Atlas. Actions overtaken in the last two decades have reflected nothing but an aggressive attempt to coerce the sovereignty of other nations who do not align with them. It is unfortunate that the Church is nothing but an institution that allows the injustice of Iblees manifested in the malignant minds of these men to use their moral authority to distort the Canon and perpetuate the divisive rhetoric of those they sanction. By his magisterial authority, His Holiness Everard IV encouraged a common unity among the nations and clarified the true mission of the Church, a notion that has been distorted by the evils that the same supports: “Whereas the mortal inclination of war and division remains an unshakable habit of our condition, we are also mandated by divine Will to ensure that the unity of man is the supreme propensity to our existence. As faithful men of the Canon, we are destined for the greater glorification of GOD by our namesake in baptism and confirmation through our vocational pursuits.” -Pax et Unitatem, 1626 The moral relativity that this Church preaches and acts upon, deriving from the whims of avaricious pursuits and the will of the King of Renatus, this Pontificate has fallen short of its duties as a Servant of GOD and further cements his disqualification to the mandate of that holy office. Moreover, by their own admission in the missive of “Apple Pie”, the Church itself - with the High Pontiff in tow - and the Order of Saint Lucien aggregated “evidence” and presented it to Princess Linette of Curon. Subsequently, they marched to the Global Assemblies headquarters, and upon taking sight of Lotte, and despite him denying vehemently that he had done no wrong, they cut him down regardless. There existed no trial. Critics will profess that no trial is needed for such crimes, yet there does exist the precedent of High Pontiff Emeritus Clement III’s reign, in which there was a church trial against a woman who had attempted to assassinate His Holiness. Ergo, since there was no trial, an already set criterion for heresy or malpractice, the accusation of Lotte as a necrotic is nullified and so too is the brutal execution of him. His executors, therefore, are also his murderers. Yet another example of the politicisation of the pontifical institution is the corruption and lack of faith from its leadership. Archbishop Yurii, a member of the Synod, once stood silently whilst his men denounced the head of his religion - and then went on to disregard his faith and cease communication with the High Pontiff himself. This gross politicisation of what is meant to be a fundamentally religious organisation is an objective insult against the Canonist Church. The Archbishop had to, furthermore, profess his own faith in a writ of loyalty to the church. It is needless to say that one so high up in the institution should not have to be explaining that they are still faithful to the Canonist faith. The next contradiction seen within the church institution is the constant bombardment of the High Pontiff Emeritus Clement III. His Holiness had once signed a deal with the descendants of Mali, which led to popular uproar and a divisive attitude to the then pontifical institution. Yet, we can easily highly the vastly ironic contradiction in our present predicament. They generally now accept alliance with the Dominion, but still bark in the face of the former High Pontiff for the actions that they themselves hold to be positive in nature. Evident in these contradictions is the diplomatic endeavor that the Church under Jude I is willing to compromise his own beliefs and that of the men he leads for the sake of temporal ambition. Only now does Renatus and the Church find it convenient to align with the Dominion if it facilitated them to unlawfully subjugate others. Rather than sanctions and means by the Global Assembly, the Church enables the Kingdom of Renatus-Marna to seek a path diametrically opposed to the virtues of Exalted Horen. How can we find credibility and morality in a church riddled with institutional hypocrisy, inconsistency, and an inflated relativity? We find solace in the words of Everard, who said of temperance and patience: “The virtue prescribed by patience is an invitation of introspection on our part concerning the life that we experience has a time and order understood and controlled at the whim of the Godhead. Therefore, we are to remain ever faithful to the time and place GOD has destined us to be stationed, to deny oneself and our obligations to our own toils in favor of the common good and of the law revealed to us by the Testaments of the Exalted. We are given pain, sickness, health, cure, life, and death all because of the One who wills it. They were instituted to remind us of our humanity and of the salvation we aspire to partake in when the time and order of GOD has been met.” The Scroll of Virtue, by my own correspondence with the High Pontiff Emeritus Clement III, teaches us of faith, of charity, of temperance and of humility; yet the actions of the depraved and bloodthirsty assassins of Chairman Baptiste, whoever they may be, show us the worst of our world and the contorted nature of a shameless mind. Baptiste was many things, but a villain and a necrotic was not one of those things. I had the pleasure to call Lotte my ally, my brother-in-arms for more than two decades. I ask his murderers: Do you have no shame? There is no surer sign of decay in our world than to see the rites of fidelity, harmony, and religion held in contempt. Furthermore, there is no plague within the ill of man more grave than that of the perversion of truth and the corruption of holiness to justify malice.
