Erika Barclay blinked upon reading the things about the dwarf stall "That was a task given to His Excellency by me as there would be a new dwarf in charge of that stall and the dwarven ambassador asked for it to be evicted. Though Ich will bring such up in Duma."

ERIKA BARCLAY, A VOICE FOR ALL! Erika Barclay’s official portrait, ca 411 ES. THE HISTORY OF LADY ERIKA BARCLAY: Lady Erika Renate Barclay, born in Reinmar 397 ES, the second daughter of Ser Reinhardt Barclay. She was one of the women in the election of 411 ES where the elected officials had been all female for the first time. She ended up in producing 4 bills, 3 of which passed Duma along with being the co writer of the Karenina Law during her tenure as a Royal Alderwoman 411 ES - 416 ES. Lady Erika also produced another bill in 421 ES when she stepped in for Duke Johann Barclay as his representative in Duma, which ended up passing. THE POLITICS OF LADY ERIKA BARCLAY: Lady Erika Barclay wishes to introduce some new reforms to Duma like introducing uniforms to make it a more formal setting along with a Duma committee that will handle the passed bills of Duma to open up for more government positions under the Lord Speaker’s jurisdiction. Lady Erika is also always open to new ideas and wishes from the people on what they want to see more of in Duma. Lady Erika Barclay promises to: Continue her support for more opportunities for the commoners in government positions through the making of the Duma committee To listen to the voices of the people by opening up an idea box for Duma Adding to the law on the rights of medics being allowed to deny a patient medical care if their life is threatened. To do her best in continuing to stay active and produce bills that will matter It is the sincerest hope of Lady Erika Renate Barclay that the electorate of Hanseti-Ruska will elect her for her second term as Royal Alderwoman, in which the Kingdom may go down the path of Equal Opportunities!

Erika Barclay would be braiding Klara's hair while talking about their day and the plans they all had for the wedding. Sibylla sitting across them laughing alongside them both. "Oh Klara, Ich can't wait for dein wedding" she smiled @crazedpudding@CupOTea__

Erika Barclay felt a pang of emotion as she read the address within her quarters. Never had she felt so proud before and she immediately went to tell her sister, father, friends and her Tante Margot. @Maevlin@Capt_Chief26@crazedpudding@CupOTea__@MildStatic

Kirsty is such a wholesome person, definitely deserving of this!

Erika Barclay would read the statement before nodding her head "Lady Adele is a competent woman, she will do well!"

Erika Barclay followed her patriarch in her armor and helmet with a feeling of proudness

Erika Barclay rose her brow heavily "So, this Orenian Duke claims that Ich got called a wench because it is true? Well Ich know who to aim my sword for when we meet on the battlefield during this war." the woman then let out a heavy scoff before ripping it up and throwing it in the fire "And to think all this happened because Ich stood up for mein own honor and mein cousin's"

Father Katerina smiled proudly upon hearing the news that she had been made a bishop. Though her smile faltered as she realized she would now have to start hiking again to get to her diocese. "Godani give me strength..."

Father Katerina would be reading the pamphlet while enjoying a nice cup of hot tea. Her eyes tracing along the paper as she gave many nods to the different knights until she stumbled upon her uncle's mentions of his knighthood. The sip she had just taken proved badly as she spat it out when she read the paper mentioning what her brother Heinrik had done to her and her aunt. "Well... I did niet expect that to be mentioned. I suppose they now do have the courage to write about my brother's madness and his cruelty so openly these days" A small smirk however creeped on her lips upon the last bit mentioning him having been suspected of stabbing Annika.

Ingrid Barclay welcomed Aleksandra to the seven skies. Going to clap her on the shoulder "The pen is niet for everyone dear, but I am proud of vyr accomplishments nonetheless" she offered her a smile as they walked to greet the rest.

Erika Barclay read the hearsay before she merely let out a gentle scoff. "Gut thing none of what the paper is trying to claim Ich said or did about the Karenina Accord is true then." She let out a loud chuckle "And hey, if Ich did seem like Ich was arguing for such, then they should have remembered Ich was but a small child then. Nicht every child can talk well and formulate their sentences like an adult when they try and speak so things will be misunderstood." She then looked over to her father. "Hey vater, was Ich kicked in the head by a mule when Ich was a child?" @Capt_Chief26
