Presided over by the Pontifical office and the prelate of the sisterhood. Table of contents: ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ SECTION I - Abstract SECTION II - When is someone a nun / canoness? SECTION III - Becoming a sister SECTION III.I - Monastic sisterly orders SECTION III.II - Mendicant sisterly orders SECTION IV - Hierachy of the sisterly orders SECTION V - Formation of a sisterly order ┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛ ♝SECTION I - Abstract on the Canonesses of the Canonist Church: To underpin and preserve the ecclesiastical lifestyle and scholastical or charitable achievements of the sisters of the canonist church, the prelate of the sisterhood, Holy Mother Lotte Adelinda in order of his Holiness, Everard VI has authored this document serving the purpose of enlightening the ordinarily silent and undisclosed lifes and rules of the female clergy and abbeys that serve GOD himself. This record informs readers on the vows to become a nun, the attire, the prevalent rules of the Canonesses of the Canonist Church and the perpetual steps of the formation of an abbey. ♝ SECTION II - When is someone a nun / canoness: A nun (Commonly referred to as a sister or canoness) is a woman who is consecrated by an ordained priest. A nun has taken the vows of Poverty, Chastity and Obedience. The sisters underpin the church in a wide range of ministries, especially those of health care, education, evangelization and social services. They are broadly recognized by their attire consisting of a tunic, scapular, cincture, coif and veil. The colours and materials however, may vary depending on the sisterly order, abbey or monastery a nun belongs to and the rank she holds within this order, abbey or monastery. ♝ SECTION III - Becoming a Sister: As a woman wishes to pursue a life of chastity and devotion, one must be consecrated by an ordained priest of the canonist faith. Any unmarried or widowed woman may be consecrated into sisterhood by the canonist church with the perpetual exemption of married women. The consecration ceremony consists of registering yourself in the ledger of GOD through mentioning your name, age and gender to the priest. After which a woman promises to give her soul, mind, heart and body to GOD. Upon completion of the first two steps, she shall be taking the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. To end the consecration ceremony, the woman shall sign a Lorraine and say a small prayer of choice which upon finishing she is officially a canoness. Upon ascension to sisterhood, nuns have the duty to find their apostolate. An apostolate is the mission that God has picked for them. A variety of options are available beginning with a choice between two forms of sisterly orders. Within the canonist church there are two different types of orders, monastic sisterly orders and mendicant sisterly orders: SECTION III.I - Monastic sisterly orders are the most devout. Bound to an abbey or a monastery, in which they practice their beliefs. Alongside of such, their abbey usually focuses on one specific charitable practise which is ran inside of the abbey or monastery. Examples of such could be a poorhouse, or a medical clinic. Monastic orders also hold the right to create income for the order and for the canonist church. This is often done through management of vineyards that surround an abbey or a monastery, or through collecting, creating and selling items and materials. Through their financial importance, Monastic sisters may lead a more decadent lifestyle than mendicant sisters. SECTION III.II Mendicant sisterly orders do not operate from an abbey or monastery and are commonly less devout and generally lead a lifestyle of poverty. Their sisters are often deployed in various parts of the world ranging from missionary missions to positions in a palatial aristocratic court as governess, tutoring children on theology and other subjects. Mendicant sisters may also choose to take up chambers in a basilica, cathedral or church assisting the priest or bishop of that diocese with their tasks. In addition, mendicant sisters may also be selected by members of the Curia to assist in their specific ministries. As the aforementioned text concludes, Mendicant sisters enjoy more freedom and are therefore more free to choose how they wish to fulfill their tasks and duties. Once a sister has chosen between Monastic and Mendicant she may choose an order that she wishes to join. More information on these orders can be found in other documents published by the office of the prelate of the sisterhood. Each order has different Apostolate missions, attires, locations and patrons. Once a sister has found an order, she shall become a postulant for a year in which she gets introduced to the order and their apostolate mission. Once successfully passed, she becomes a sister of that order and so her faithful life begins. The sister shall receive further instructions and information as well as personal tasks and duties through the corresponding Abbess. ♝SECTION IV - Hierachy of the Sisterly orders: The sisterly orders follows strict structural codes that renders formations that enable sisters to progress and pursue their ascetic lives in accordance to the Church of the Canon. All Sisterly orders are obliged to follow the same structural hierachy, with exemption to the specific duty and tasks in an order. An ecosystem is built that encourages equal levels for the majority of the sisters, exempting the official roles which sisters can strive for to rise within the Church as secondary and tertiary servants of GOD. In alignment to the Church, the High Pontiff wields absolute authority from the Exalted Throne over the Order of the Saint Catherine, and no sister can challenge his judgement regardless of her office. The sisters of the Order are sworn into their devotion until death, and so all of them are encouraged to aspire to deliver glory and charity in the name of the Creator. All sisters are expected to uphold the principles of the Canonist faith through their education of the Holy Scrolls. Holy mother-superior The Holy Mother of the Church of the Canon is the highest ranking woman of the clergy and is the supreme mother of all the orders of the church of the Canon. She sits the figurative throne beneath the High Pontiff, whom she closely confides and works with. The Holy Mother, in officiality, is the Prelate of the Sisterhood and is thus in charged with assuring the discipline and well-being of the Orders through the rank of Arch-Abbess. Abbess An abbess runs an abbey or monastery in alignment and relation to the Church of the Canon. Typically, there are only one or two abbess’ serving in their order in any one age. The Holy Mother is the archabbess, and might elect another competent woman to oversee another abbey or monastery. Prioress A prioress can either be the religious sister tasked with managing specific groups in a mendicant order or function as the assistant head over an abbey or monastery. She is tasked with the responsibilities of managing the internal affairs of the institution as well as the relations with other monasteries and communities. The prioress serves duly in her duties of discipline and organisation of the sisters within the convent, and actively participates as a right hand to their abbess. Many prioresses claim origins from prosperous houses and families, often being the fourth or latter daughter that would be unlikely to serve higher marital purposes Sister A sister that has undergone the consecration of the Church of the Canon. A Sister has dedicated her life to GOD and performs various tasks and duties within an order. Some orders tend to add certain forms of address in front of their sisterly status such as tonsured or virgin to express their principles. Postulant a postulant is a consecrated sister that has not been assigned to a certain order yet. For a year she shall train with the sisters of the order in which she gets introduced to the order and their apostolate mission, as well as execute tasks to ascend to the actual rank of sister. ♝SECTION V - Formation of an order: As orders have gone and died within the rich history of the canonist church, new ones are able to be formed with the approval of the current pontifical office and the prelate of the sisterhood. A sister who wishes to form her own order shall first be tasked with writing a modus operandi which must consist of: The reason for establishment, the form of the order, the chosen patron, the ideology, the apostolate mission and the attire donned by the sisters of the church. Upon approval of the pontifical office and the holy mother, the sister shall be tasked with the recruitment of a number of sisters that is chosen by the pontifical office and the prelate of the clergy. After such, a new sisterly order can be formed which shall be named after the chosen patron. May one be interested or have any other questions or issues pertaining to this document, one may contact anyone of the church of the Canon to answer or redirect them to the corresponding sister or priest. In nomine dei, His Holiness Everard VI , High Pontiff of the Church of the Canon, Archbishop of Visigia, Successor of the High Priesthood of the Church, Supreme Pontiff of the Church of True Faith, Keeper of the Canon, Missionary to Aeldin, High Servant to the Exalted's Testaments, Humble Servant of the Faithful and Vicar of GOD Her Excellency, Lotte-Adelinda von Alstreim, Holy Mother of the Canonist church.

BRO TELL ME

Charlotte Pruvia-Albarosa lips featured an immense smile as her lady in waiting, Louisa Elisabeth read the missive to her "The only time he satisfied me was when he signed these papers." Charlotte took a sip of wine before walking towards Trissingham court to tell the marvelous news to the other ladies at court.

The countess of Rochefort put her saucer down on the salon table, taking one last sip out of her cup as she skimmed through the letter swiftly as she sat in the grand salon of the imperial palace "Mm.. Look what he wrote me." Charlotte showed the letter to Minerva de Selm and yawned "Quite the spectacle.." She rised from her seat, asking a servant to bring the small painting to her chambers before returning her attention on the teea.

oh yess.. The land of .. .. .. I forgot their culture?

The Palatial Pocketbook: From peasant to pageant A pocketbook for courtiers and visitors of the imperial court Written by Lady Charlotte of Rochefort Preamble: You have been cordially invited to the imperial palace or to the court of trissingham. But, what do you wear? How do you find that exact salon out of the oh-so many? Fred not! This pocketbook shall introduce you to all the sophisticated rules and quirks! From Peasant to Pageant! ♛THE IMPERIAL PALACE First and foremost you must find your way in the extravagant halls of the palace. It is without a doubt that you shall get lost! therefore, I have made a small map for you so you can easily guide your way through! (Note: these are my names for these chambers and halls, not official terms!) FIRST FLOOR: [Yellow: Formal throne room & informal throne room] [Gray/Blue-ish: Halls] [Peach: Ballroom & State banquet hall] [Orange: Salons] [Light blue: Library] [Dark green: Servant quarters] [Gray: Mourning room] [Arrow: Staircases] [Light green: Courtyard] [Dark blue: Offices/chambers] [/\: entrances] SECOND FLOOR: [Purple: Empress/Emperor suite] [Gray/Blue-ish: Halls] [Peach: Ballroom & Casino] [Orange: Salons] [Arrow: Staircases] [Light green: Courtyard] [Darkblue:Offices/chambers] ♛THE DRESS CODE When visiting or living in the imperial palace, you are visiting or residing in the house of the imperial family. One could only assume you’d put on your finest attire and wig! Though, is it the correct one? No. There is never a correct gown, or frock coat unless the imperial family says it’s in! But, to make your life a little easier let me give you some tips: It’s all about extravagance! WOMEN As Vespira Antonia Helane wrote in her apodictic guide to the fairer sex: “Gone are the days of the archaic gamurra, Auvergnian hoods, and trumpet-sleeved gowns of yore. Now, respectable ladies powder their hair, adorn themselves with exuberant hats and plumage, paint their faces, and opt to outfit themselves in sack-back gowns and mantuas.” (Tip: Read Vespira’s apodictic guide to the fairer sex or her guide to the makings of an enlightened man for an elaborated guide on dress code and manners!) ATTIRE: -Wear an imperial court gown which consists of a bodice and a skirt. The bodice is constructed in an identical way of a corset. During your stay or visit, you shall see various variations of this bodice, some daring, some modest and some encrusted with the largest diamonds! The skirt consists of the overskirt which typically connects to the bodice and is made of the same or similar material while the underskirt is used to express a ladies wealth! And to top it off, purchase yourself a pannier or some side hoops to enhance a strong silhouette! (Tip: Visit the Helvets atelier in Providence established at carrington emporium 15!) Now you must be thinking: I got the gown! Let’s begin my palatial adventure! Sorry to disappoint, but we haven’t even gotten to the best part yet! WIGS AND COIFFURE: -I know I know, you see all these ladies wearing wigs and you probaly think you must wear one too! False! Your own hair does wonders. ( If augmented with fake hair, padding and wiring of course!) do make sure to apply a pomade in there, or some powder! You can also use hot iron rods to create curls or waves! There are many hairstyles you can choose from, but I would recommend keeping it simple since you didn’t read this guide for no reason! COSMETICS: -A noble lady can use cosmetics to enhance her beauty. This can be done through applying powder or pomade to your face in pale colors. Rouge is used to enhance the redness of the cheek and you can also use this on your lips! (Tip: Spent too much mina on that beautiful gown from the Helvets Atelier? Use beetroot as rouge! be careful though, the aristocrats shall likely spot it immediately!) Now for the eyebrows it is recommended to make them darker, the best way is through using burnt cloves. Never apply too much makeup though! Ladies at court wish to look at a face and not a painting, they already got plenty of those! (Tip: Looking for fabulous accesories such as umbrella's or fans? Visit Red Rose Botique located on Carrington Emporium 14!) MEN: To once again quote Vespira Helane: “A frequent utterance amongst courtiers is: “one day you are in, one day you are out”, and unlike many common sayings, this one actually rings true; Orenian court is infamous for its cut-throat nature, and multiple court favorites have lost their coveted status due to a singular faux-pas.” ATTIRE: -To be a sophisticated gentleman in the palace, one is suggested to wear a frock coat, a waist coat and breeches. These should complement each other in colour and pattern and you usually buy them in sets! Wear bright colours, and use lace! Show off your wealth! ( if you have any left after purchasing this) As most breeches do not extend past the knee, it is customary to wear stockings and low heeled leather shoes. WIGS AND COIFFURE: - If you are indeed a fine gentleman with proper hair, you can come to court without a wig! Lucky you! Though, most men opt to wear a wig anyways, so it is always an option! Men who are losing hair must always cover their head with either a wig or a hat. (My personal favourite hat is the tricorn, but I shall leave that up to you!) GROOMING: -Admit it, sometimes you are lazy and you grow out your hair. This is a true faux-pas in the imperial palace! Never shall you be recommended to grow facial hair! ♛THE ETIQUETTE Now comes the hardest part, how do I behave? Do I simply say hello, or do I kneel for them? Luckily for you, I have all the answers! NOBLE STYLINGS: THE EMPEROR/EMPRESS In oration “His/Her imperial majesty” In address “Your imperial majesty” Informally “Your majesty” THE IMPERIAL PRINCES/PRINCESSES In oration “His/Her imperial highness” In address “Your imperial highness” Informally “Your highness” DUKE/DUCHESS in oration: “His/Her grace” in address: “Your grace” informally: “Sir/Madam" MARQUESS/MARCHIONESS In oration: “The Most Honorable” In address: “My lord/lady” Informally: “Sir/Madam" COUNT/COUNTESS In oration: “The Right Honorable” In Address: “My lord/lady” Informally: “Sir/Madam” VISCOUNT/VISCOUNTESS In oration: “The Right Honorable” In Address: “My lord/lady” Informally: “Sir/Madam” BARON/BARONESS In oration: “The Right Honorable” In Address: “My lord/lady” Informally: “Sir/Madam” MANNERS: Now that you know how to address those of noble stock, it is time to learn how to act around them. Ladies generally curtsy for ladies or lords who hold a higher title or position within court, and Lords generally bow. Never show up too early to an event, it puts the host/hostess in an uncomfortable situation! Never forget to say “Please” and “Thank you”, as courtiers should act with decorum at all times. As for introductions, I recommend asking the host if she could introduce you to someone! It is seen as improper for a woman to introduce herself to a stranger. As for dining etiquette or a simple drink, simply do not haste yourself and watch how your conversation partners behave and act, that shall bring you a long way in the imperial palace! From peasant to pageant, Lady Charlotte Rosamund Helvets

Luciana “The Harlot” Maria Napoliza Per stato é gloria https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LASz6HAL7E My beloved family and friends, If you are reading this, it means that I have decided to end my journey on Arcas, and begin a new one to the seven skies, to at last find my freedom. My long journey, whom many of you loyally followed has come to an end. In my long lifetime, I have learned much about the world, and that life comes with many sacrifices. As I am still but a humble servant to my family and former subjects. My journey as a crow, my journey from a Vilac to a Napoliza and my journey from sovereign to citizen hopefully has left a mark on you all. As most know, I was born as a horridly spoiled lady, whom always fought for what she wanted. In this letter, I shall tell you, my dearest family and friends my story, one with many secrets and of course my will. As most know, I was born as a horridly spoiled lady by my mother, the former princess of Vilachia. Though I certainly did not learn many life lessons from it, I did learn to always fight for what I want which I continued to do until my last breath. Even going as far as stabbing myself in the tavern of Helena at only seventeen years old to accuse a former enemy of mine so that she would be imprisoned. At eighteen years old, I married my late husband the Count of Pestilles. The count of a religious county, who fought with the alliance of independent states against the Holy Orenian Empire in the Ruberni war. Back then, I was loyal to the Holy Orenian Empire and promptly left my son and husband to return to the glorious metropolis of Helena. Once returned, I fought for my families glory and petitioned to the holy orenian emperor, peter the third for a colony in the Korvassa in 1761. Albeit my efforts, most of you know that this was not received well, and I was forced to leave the name of Vilac, as well as my mothers maidens name Varoche. The two once mighty houses where stripped of their nobility, and we had to pay fifty thousand mina’s to the lord treasurer as a fine. Not long after that, I was kidnapped by some Azdrazi, whom used me for a ritual to summon Azdromoth. Albeit being one of the very few to personally speak to Azdromoth, I was not kind and was punished by a sigil on my head of two dragons forming the shape of a crown, with in the middle a place for a gem. The sigil prevented me from ever speaking out of term again, and shaped me as the woman that I am today. Though I never figured out what the gem would do, it did change my entire life. I left the empire alongside my family to the Korvassa, where I changed our name to the princely house of Napoliza, and I founded the principality of Vitenna near it’s coastal line. The sovereign state would go on to function as a home for illatians, as well as a home where it’s primary ideals were freedom, cohesion and pride. and even though destroyed by the inferi, it has been my life’s work. One that I am still very proud of. I have had the pleasure as sovereign of this state, to rule and govern over magnificent subjects. And we modernized Arcas through our ideals. One of my late friends is a great example of this, Jago Brownfolk. The bishop of Korvassa, and at that, a halfling whom changed the way me and my family think about religion and race. I also had the pleasure of being great and loyal friends to the sultanate of Al-Faiz and its inhabitants. Their culture, though very different of ours, should be something that the rest of human-kind should strive towards. This very Sultanate, that has granted my subjects a place to live within their grand city as Vitenna grew unlivable due to Inferi attacks. Vitenna was the center of art, knowledge and freedom. During my reign, I have also made many mistakes. One of which was the support of a rebel group in Courland. Furthermore, I have also allowed for public intercourse within the palace of Vileux, and for my many love affairs to be public which gave me the reputation of Luciana the Harlot princess. At a certain point, my daughter Julienna Maria Napoliza whom I shall miss dearly, told me that we needed to move to the Sultanate, as the living conditions of Vitenna grew worse. Perhaps the thing I regret the most in life, is not fighting more for my great state and subjects. As we evacuated Vitenna, I moved my family back to Helena. Where I left a quiet live in the shadows, and where I taught my family the strong ideals that I hold, and that my former state held. As I write you all right now, my wish is for all my dynasts to pass on these ideals and care for our illatian kin. Now, to move on to my will and wishes, I wish to be buried in the fallen principality of Vitenna and for my stone to be made of illatian marble. -To my mother, I leave you all my jewelry. -To my sister, Johanna Maria Napoliza. I regret marrying you off to the high prince of Vanmark, and I shall leave you my manor in Helena, so that you may escape your misery and find peace. -To my grand-daughter Anabela Corina, I leave to you my titles which are recognized by the sultanate of Korvassa as well as full control over the family. Please give the house the proper status that it deserves. -To his holiness, James II. I leave to you my request, to make Jago brownfolk, the bishop of Korvassa a saint. A saint who sacrificed his life to protect several other canonists. and who devoted his entire life to our great religion. -To the former king of Norland, I leave my great sword and my regrets of never marrying him. -Sultan Al-Nabeel, I leave you my consent for your marriage with my previous daughter-in-law Sapphira. Something that I always have refused to give. -And to my former subjects, I give you the promise of freedom once death becomes you. Now, as I always have during my reign. I shall close my letter by the words Per stato e gloria. and do not forget, through struggle I persevered, and at last, I found my freedom and success. -Per stato é gloria, Luciana Maria Napoliza
