Angelika Bykov let out a scream as she heard of the tragic incident. She fell to her knees, clasping her hands together in prayer. Through her sobs, she began to mutter prayers. ”Do Thou, O Lord, have mercy on our dearly departed, for the sake of us sinners all who greatly hope and trust in Thee. For Thy mercy can turn bittering weeping to joyous fanfare, for Thou alone judgeth the living and the dead. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord. And may perpetual light shine upon them. Amen.” Angelika repeated the prayers three more times before signing the Lorraine Cross four times. ”Where did I go wrong? What could I have done?”

Angelika Bykov nodded upon reading the proclamation, bobbing her head in agreement with it. ”None may rightfully intrude upon a united humanity under Godan. Doing so would simply be heathenous.”

4 hours ago, seannie said:

After having spiraled into a great depression, the King of Haense took his life in apparent objection to the decision that forced his people to continue assisting a tyrannical Emperor – incapable to cope and his selfish desires having overtaken him, he was found dead in his office with his own hands wrapped around the base of a dagger, which protruded forth from his neck ending him rightly. 

Angelika Bykov heard the news from President Konstantin Wick at the start of the House of Commons sitting. Afterwards, she returned to her manor in New Reza. She then wept and prayed for hours.

Angelika Bykov smiles upon catching word of the victory. “The Empire shall prevail! Godan save the Emperor!"

“Now, this is a man to vote for,” Angelika remarked upon reading Nicephore’s stances and plans.

Angelika Bykov smirked a bit upon reading the missive. ”First of all, Haense is most certainly not safe with the ongoing Scyfling invasions. In addition, though we differ from the Empire in many ways, we are still a vassal of the Empire. Betraying them in a time of war, or any time, for that matter, is treasonous.”

Angelika Bykov beamed widely and let out a soft sigh of relief after hearing the news! ”Thank Godan! Glory to the Empire! Long live the Emperor!”

Angelika Bykov nodded, her lips upturning into a faint smile upon reading Father Goren’s thesis. ”I agree completely. We are all subject to change. Our daily actions and choices determine where each individual shall be sent to after death. This gives us incentive to uphold good faith and dignity, which was Godan’s hope for humanity.”

Angelika Bykov proudly votes AYE for all bills presented.

Angelika Bykov shook her head upon reading the flyer. ”First of all, the HRA already receives free healthcare. In addition, many of his platforms and plans are similar to my own. How curious.”

Angelika Bykov shook her head in disgust at the taunting of the Hangmen victory. ”Nie matter what they say, the Holy Orenian Empire shall prevail. We have the numbers, and most importantly, we have Godan on our side.”

Hi! Welcome to LotC! I’m super glad that you’re here 😄. I can’t wait to rp with you! Just let me know if you have any questions or need any help!

We’ll All Go Down to Sutica

Union Dixie

Verse 1:

Away down South in the land of traitors,

Orenians, we are much greater,

Right away, come away, right away, come away.

A tyrant king who casts the blame,

ISA will win war claims, 

Right away, come away, right away, come away.

Chorus:

Then we'll all go down to Sutica,

Away, away,

Each Orener must understand

That he must mind Peter III

Away, away,

And we'll all go down to Sutica.

Away, away,

And we'll all go down to Sutica.

Verse 2:

I’m glad I am involved in war

I'll make Sutican traitors roar,

Right away, come away, right away, come away.

We'll put the traitors all to rout.

We’ll hang Alstreim upside-down

Right away, come away, right away, come away.

Chorus:

Then we'll all go down to Sutica,

Away, away,

Each Orener must understand

That he must mind Peter III

Away, away,

And we'll all go down to Sutica.

Away, away,

And we'll all go down to Sutica.

Verse 3:

Oh, may we all defeat our foes

The Suticans we will dispose

Right away, come away, right away, come away.

And let our motto ever be --

“Godan Save the Emperor”

Right away, come away, right away, come away.

Chorus:

Then we'll all go down to Sutica,

Away, away,

Each Orener must understand

That he must mind Peter III

Away, away,

And we'll all go down to Sutica.

Away, away,

And we'll all go down to Sutica.

Angelika Bykov for Maer, 1775

“Progressive prosperity, we shall stand”

Introduction

Prevja. My name is Angelika Bykov. I have studied the art of politics for the better part of my life and I hope to use my knowledge in the subject to improve the Kingdom of Haense. I am a very hardworking individual who will stop at nothing to serve Haense and its people. For these reasons, I am pleased to publicly announce my campaign for Maer.

Experience

• Undersecretary for the Interior
• Member of the House of Commons
• Chief of Staff for President Terrance May
• Educated by Her Majesty, Maya Valeriya Barbanov

Stances on Topics

Economy: The economy of Haense is pivotal and must be regarded with utmost importance. Haense must continue to uphold a free market. A Laissez-Faire economy is best for both the business owner and the consumer. Healthy competition shall control prices in order to control inflation.

Military: The Haense Royal Army is one of the driving forces of the Kingdom of Haense. For this reason, we must repay our loyal soldiers for their work by providing them with suitable living conditions and fair wages. 

Religion: As a devout Canonist, I plan to install these beliefs into my work as Maer. As Maer, I plan to host mass every Saint’s Week so that we can stay loyal to GOD and someday enter into the Seven Skies. 

Education: Education is one of my utmost values, and as Maer, I will work to ensure that every child and adult in Haense are taught the vital skills of how to read and write, along with the history of Haense and religious education. In addition, I wish to start an educated program within our esteemed HRA to ensure that our soldiers are not only strong physically, but also mentally.

Signed, 

Angelika Eleanora Bykov, Undersecretary for the Interior, MHC

Angelika smiled and nodded as she read the man’s thesis. ”Indeed. And the Empire of Oren shall defend these Godan given rights from the tyranny of Corwin Alstreim.”

Angelika Bykov shook her head upon reading the letter. ”At least not all Suticans are deceived by Corwin Alstreim. I will ensure than any Suticans seeking refuge shall be welcome into Oren with open arms.”

Angelika Bykov nodded in approval as she read over the reforms to the Duma. ”I have nie doubt these reforms shall increase the productivity of the Royal Duma.”

Angelika shook her head upon reading the traveler’s thoughts in regards to the war. ”Another man deceived by the corruption of Corwin Alstreim. This tyrant has falsely claimed the crown to the Free State and has murdered a child of His Imperial Majesty’s house. His Imperial Majesty is perfectly justified in declaring war.”

Angelika Bykov eagerly awaits the Arch-Chancellor’s address.

Angelika Bykov shook her head after reading of the newly-formed coalition. ”If anyone is a ‘sick ruler,’ it is Corwin Alstreim. It is truly a shame seeing how many innocent people fail to see him for what he is: a tyrant and a murderer.”
