Privy Office Report
17 July 309 AC
17 July 309 AC
Introduction
With the end of the Academia Ministry there is still a need for research, expansion, and organization.
The Shattel Agricultural Support Committee created to defend against a novel blight disaster has also run its course. As such, the Privy Office was created as a means of directing forces into solving Empire-affecting issues. The Blight, which has traveled outside of Peirgarten lands and continued its spread, was determined by the Committee to be a combination of extraplanar essence and alchemy. This information and the efforts of the Committee have allowed the Privy Office a leg-up in resolving the situation.
The Privy Office would like to personally thank all the members of the Support Committee and those who have helped the Support Committee in the past. This list is too numerous to release in this report due to the extraordinary outreach of help from the Regalian public, but can be found in a previous Academia Ministry statement.
Blight Initiative Roadmap
Houses and individuals that can afford to spend time, effort, or funds on solving the Blight are encouraged to do so. This is a Regalian issue, and one that will affect the entirety of our Empire if not nipped in the bud. There will be no attempts to stop individual research or experimentation provided they are conducted safely and with a line of communication in the Privy Office. If one is in need of information pertaining to the Blight, they are recommended to reach out to Privy Officer van Hal or Privy Secretary Emery Houle.
The Privy Officer and a predetermined group will travel to Shattel and create a ledger containing all known crops affected by the Blight and any proven to be unaffected. Cash crops which have not been tested will be brought in for experimentation to determine if they are Blight-resistant. This will be accomplished by planting test crops in fields with known cases of Shattel Blight.
With the permission of Grand Duke Abelhard Petrou, alchemists will travel to the Citadel of Proagogi in order to research a possible alchemical cure.
The Privy Officer will contact a representative of the Soor-Rassa-Allar and arrange in-city research and testing alongside a collection of alchemists.

For everyone that was involved with the Shattel Committee, it was a great time! We definitely would not have gotten as far as we have otherwise.
