❮CURAE I - Appointment to Holy Office❯

Upon the Regalian Synodical Council of October, the Brother Reverends from all corners of the regalian Archipelago came together to elect a High Reverend from among their ranks. This first among equals will serve the Synod and the faithful as a representative of the Sancella, and a personification of moral purity, to be exceeded only by the Holy Spirit and the Crown.

The Reverend Stéphan von Brühl III was elected with a Synodical mandate, taking on no pontifical name in respect to his noble name, signalling a forever close of infighting between nobility and clergy.
The Venerable Reverend ran upon a clear mandate and set of objectives in which the Synod should achieve.
  1. The restoration of the Church's position, not as an opponent to the government, but a part of it.
  2. The strengthening of the Church's image by the masses, a rift that occured during the interregnum.
  3. The revised preachings and masses held by the churchto draw in people.
  4. The updated way the Divine Militia and church interact through holy law and canonical courts.

❮CURAE II - The Appointment of the Synodical Cabinet

With the changing High Reverend it is customary to appoint the members of the Synod to the positions that exists within the church after his best idea of who can perform these tasks and serve the church to the fullest extend in success.
With the removal of the old Reverend-Ministries due to them being largely unused bar one, the Guiding Eye, they shall change name to Episcopal Sees and hopefully we shall see the creation of more such Sees as time goes by and needs of niche foci begin to show.
  • The Hallowed Honour of The Episcopal See of the Guiding Eye.
    • His Most Holiness would deem to appoint Aelfric Harhold to The Honour of The Episcopal See of the Guiding Eye, with his guidance, blessing, and everlasting support.
    • The See is tasked henceforth to continue the former Ministerial Work of the Guiding Eye, in presenting forth Unionism to nations far off, and to the lost within the home.
    • All holy missions and the missionaries therein are to answer to The Episcopal See of the Guiding Eye.
    • The See is tasked with the recruitment of Laymen for said foreign ventures and missions.
    • The See is tasked with the reclamation of Holy Relics.
  • The Hallowed Honour of The Episcopal See of the Hand of War.
    • His Most Holiness would deem to leave empty The Honour of The Episcopal See of the Hand of War, with the intention to watch closely his brothers and who could steer this Honour away from the unuse it has had the past months.
    • The See is tasked henceforth with the overseeing of Sancella marshal assets, including but not limited to: The Helerian Guardforce, Blade Sisters and the bulk Synodical Holy Army.
    • The See shall oversee the security of the collective Synod, and establish an active Helerian presence to aid in this.
    • The See shall designate sights of military importance for The Sancella in its foreign crusades.
  • The Hallowed Honour of The Episcopal See of Tithes and Almnes.
    • His Most Holiness would deem to leave empty The Honour of The Episcopal See of Tithes and Almnes, with the intention to watch closely his brothers and who could steer this Honour away from the unuse it has had the past months.
    • The See is tasked henceforth to work in ensuring Synodical Tithes and Almnes collected reach their proper usage and that Tithes are paid by noble families.
Alongside this, his Most Holiness makes the reassignment of the honourary positions and titles and their intended ceremonial functions.
  • Droit a droite
    • Assigned by His Most Holiness' will to Aelfric Harhold.
  • Droit a gauche
    • Assigned by His Most Holiness' Will to Jakob Ludevar.
  • The Curate to the Imperial Family.
    • By virtue of his piety, Aethelred Howlester.
  • The Elder of the Hall.
    • By virtue of his age only matched by His Most holiness himself, Aelfric Harhold.
 
Percy just grunted at the announcement, "The man should take a pontifical name. He is a High Reverend not a government minister."

The Howlester Revain let his eyes glaze over the words in the parchment he had received along with his various other State related correspondence. He raised a brow, keeping his opinions internal. Either way, he folded the parchment up into a small square and placed it away for a rainy day.

 
Jeremias glanced over the notice, the Paladin experiencing a deep inhale once concluding, "Still they dance on the edges of politics. My faith is lost within." He let the parchment fall back onto the Elder's desk, continuing his morning conversation.
 
Winifred clasped her hands together, eyes brightening despite sickness as she gave a smile. "At least dear Father Harhold is getting some credit for his work, though it would've been lovely to see him as the High Reverend. I hope... this new one doesn't make any severe mistakes like ones before." A small frown interrupted her grin, and she fidgeted her fingers nervously as she turned away and wandered off.
 
Maxence von Brühl brushed his hand through his beard at the news of his kin being elected as the High Reverend. Giving a firm nod as he read the parchment, rolling it up in pursuit on finding a certain imperialised Etosian.
