  3. THE UNION OF THE TWIN CROWS KRUSAE ZWY KONGZEM Issued by the CROWN On this 1st day of Gronna ag Droba of 501 E.S. VA BIRODEO HERZENAV AG EDLERVIK, Two years past a prophecy was spoken before the throne and all the Haeseni. Ser Mikolaj, named Oracle by the people, has foretold the ascension of twin crows. These two of Karovic blood, and these two who shall sit the throne as one. The Oracle speaks, and as Our forefathers once did, so shall We listen. It is proclaimed that the daughter of Prince Franz, Nataliya Leopoldina Morovar, is destined to wed the Grand Prince of Kusoraev, Ivan Aleksandr Barbanov-Bihar. Both bride and groom bear the blood of the crow, and thus it is ordained that they shall rule together as equals. May their union be prosperous, heralding an age of continued glory for the Dual Monarchy of Hanseti-Ruska. “Too long hath Saint Karl spread his wings so wide, blood run thin and far afield, So must twin crows become one, those long withdrawn come together, To wed upon the seed of storms and rime, one murder to end and another begin, Come again the blood of the accursed to sit upon your throne, and come the thaw - so shall the son be blessed. One blood, in one Crown.” DLUM EDLERVIKI, DRUZ ZVAERDI, HIS ROYAL MAJESTY, Aleksandr II, by the Grace of Godan, King of Hanseti and Ruska, Grand Hetman of the Army, Hochmeister of the Order of the Crow, Prince of Bihar, Dules, Lahy, Muldav, Slesvik, Solvesborg, and Ulgaard, Duke of Carnatia, and Vanaheim, Margrave of Korstadt, Rothswald, and Vasiland, Count of Alban, Alimar, Baranya, Graiswald, Karikhov, Karovia, Kaunas, Kavat, Kovachgrad, Kvasz, Markev, Nenzing, Siegrad, Torun, Toruv, Valdev, and Werdenburg, Viscount of Varna, Baron of Astfield, Buck, Esenstadt, Kraken’s Watch, Kralta, Krepost, Lorentz, and Rytsburg, Lord of the Westfolk, Protector and Lord of the Highlanders, etcetera.

  5. A LETTER TO AAUN KRUSAE ZWY KONGZEM Issued by the CROWN On this 11th day of Joma ag Umund of 498 E.S. MY CROWNED BRETHREN & HIS STEADFAST REGENT, Would that it were not contention that prompts my quill, but at least things are interesting, for a change. Well, it is hardly a secret that diplomacy with Whitespire has proven more difficult than growing fruit in the Haeseni winter, so it may be best that we speak plainly - leader to leader, men to men. If you have not learned already, the ties between Crowns are a strange creature; where once it was the oathmen of my royal father that stood beside Aaun when threatened by rebellion, now it seems like we have shifted on the battlefield. My father did tell me that there was no greater storyteller than history - I suppose he was right. Alas, history’s tales can be tragedies as well as epics. So, let us lay our misconceptions to rest, lest it is a tragedy in two acts we aspire to pen. It seems your Regency Council is out of a job! Mind you, it is a ruthless trade. I admit, I was most curious to hear that your royal mother, the Queen Adela, found herself placed under arrest two Saints’ Days past, but not as curious as when I learned she was arrested for ‘unauthorised diplomacy’ with my Kongzem. It was three members of your late-Regency - the Queen Adela, the late Prince Gawyn Tiber, and Ser Leopold Haverlock - that met with my leal bannermen Ser Arthur Gant and Duke Viktor var Ruthern four Saints’ Days passed; it was in Whitespire they met, and I am told Duke Viktor was rather partial to the local seafood. It was there, in your seat of power, that they spoke of peace; they spoke of friendship; they spoke of diplomacy. It was by your writ in the Proclamation of Ascension and that of your late royal grandfather - may the Skies keep him - that your mother and these two men sat as your Executors, to helm your ship until your eighteenth birthday. Authorisation enough, one might think, so I wonder - was the arrest the machination of some other councillor who was not invited to the affair? And yet the late Prince Gawyn and Ser Leopold were spared such scolding. Indeed, that was when the plot truly thickened. Ah, it matters not; after all, it is not my place to opine on the composition of the Aaunish regency. And yet, when Lady Haense was painted as the darkspawn beneath the bed - used as justification for the arrest of Queen Adela - it invited my rebuke. Most especially when this led to known bandits being sent to Valdev in the name of the Aaunish Crown. If the remnants of the Aaunish Court seek to use my Kongzem as a scapegoat for some courtly strife - or, God forbid, a spat between mother and son - then I ought to make myself clear. Do not. Then, in the hours following the arrest of the Queen Adela, we came to the colourful matter of my lady cousin Aleksandra vas Ruthern’s arrest. A part of me commends the boldness of the decision - my cousin always did have a peculiar brand of humour, and an unsettling brand of wrath. Alas, a much bigger part of me is intrigued by the rashness. You have veritably set my Court ablaze with your proclamation that she was to be arrested, that those who harboured her were enemies of Aaun - and you irritably set my Marshal to arms when known brigands claiming to be your oathman rode to Valdev, proclaiming that they sought my dear cousin’s arrest. It was only when the city bell rang that they dispersed before drawing steel. The charge? ‘Conspiracy against the Crown’ - it is, I cannot deny, a most intriguing headline, though ‘leaving Whitespire’ does not quite live up to that title. Sending bandits knocking to Valdev, and throwing the name of Lady Haense like a bone to yapping burgundy hounds, is, perhaps, not the way to go about it, my Aaunish friend. Modern diplomatic revelations akin to the ‘pen’ and ‘letter’ may have proved more fruitful for navigating this little ordeal. In any case, your Regency is no concern of mine so long as Lady Haense is not invoked so adversely. If you wish to be friends, then come and be bloody friends -- my diplomats have switched enough horses and spent enough ink to make my intent doubly clear. If it is escalation you seek - well, I can hardly begrudge you. Do be forthright about it, though, won’t you? Valdev will welcome you as a guest, my friend. Please bring some of that seafood if you do come - I must see what all the fuss is about. IV JOVEO MAAN, His Royal Majesty, Aleksander II, by the Grace of Godan, King of Hanseti and Ruska, Grand Hetman of the Army, Hochmeister of the Order of the Crow, Prince of Bihar, Dules, Lahy, Muldav, Solvesborg, Slesvik and Ulgaard, Duke of Carnatia and Vanaheim, Margrave of Korstadt, Rothswald and Vasiland, Count of Alban, Siegrad, Werdenburg, Alimar, Baranya, Graiswald, Karikhov, Karovia, Kaunas, Kavat, Kovachgrad, Kvasz, Markev, Nenzing, Torun, Toruv, Valdev and Werdenburg, Viscount of Varna, Baron of Esenstadt, Kraken’s Watch, Kralta, Krepost, Lorentz, Rytsburg, Buck and Astfield, Lord of the Westfolk, Protector and Lord of the Highlanders, etcetera.

  12. Golden Crow Bank KRAWN EXCHANGE & NEW KRAWNS KRUSAE ZWY KONGZEM Issued by the ROYAL TREASURER On this 10th day of Wzuvar and Byvca of 428 E.S VA BIRODEO HERZENAV AG EDLERVIK The Golden Crow bank continues to prove itself as a successful venture since it was first established in 350 E.S. The last Krawn exchange occurred in 385 E.S, though now the Country has been through more than a decade of war, leaving the Krawn in a wary state. Krawns allows for all patrons, Haeseni or not, to safely deposit their mina at no fee by investing their mina in either Bronze, Silver or Gold Krawns. But now that the settlers of Almaris have been long established, the mina price has inflated so much that the need for Bronze Krawns is no longer present. This leaves the Golden Crow Bank with only Silver or Gold Krawns being a viable option for their patrons to invest in. With the extended period between the last exchange, takeover of a new Treasurer, the inflation of mina, and the upset that war brought, it is decreed that a new series of Krawns to be minted in the following forms: Gold Krawn - (1st-10th) Edition: Haeseni currency that can be exchanged at the Golden Crow Bank in Haense for 100 Mina. This solid gold coin has the crest of the City of Siegrad imprinted on one side, and the face of Saint Karl, founder and patron Saint of Haense, on the other. Silver Krawn - (1st-10th) Edition: Haeseni currency that can be exchanged at the Golden Crow Bank in Haense for 50 Mina. This solid silver coin has the crest of the City of Alban imprinted on one side, and the face of Koeng Stefan I, ressurector of Haense, on the other. OLD KRAWNS Krawns that are currently in circulation (Bronze, Silver and Gold) must be exchanged at the Golden Crow Bank in Karosgrad by the end of the next second year [BY THE 15TH OF JUNE]. Once the final date is passed, the Golden Crow Bank will not accept any old Krawns.
