State Sanction 5: Tumult & Tragedy

[fantuinn]

State Sanction pt. 5
-
ARLORA​

• Roca is able to bolster Sihn-Xeren with supplies and propagandizing, which gives him a powerful ally in his push northeast. He reaches the seat of Ferian, and declares his intent to recreate the Ferian Hold to keep a lock on this Sovereign. The coming weeks will be vitally important as to whether or not he will succeed.
• Marina, a Lady of House Aurvay is appointed as an Official. Her pro-magic standpoints allow Arlora to continue to cast freely, and her connections with the Arcanist Society leads to a few Arcanists in Torse hopping the border to feed Roca's efforts.
• The people cheer Roca's name, and the Aelrrigans decide to cut their losses and focus on the Arcanist Society and Lothar in Torse, most of them hopping the border.
• Arlora's now sole, pervasive problem is Roca. Both whether or not his offensive to Ferian will be further assisted, and what to do when Roca's actual interest in the Vanquished Kingdoms fades. Will Arlora be able to survive without his influence?

TORSE​

• Linneke is fed the supplies she needs to start pushing for pro-magic legislation in Torse. The Anglians are resolutely unhappy about this, as their assumed paradise has now been infested with mage-supremacists and violent Purists.
• It becomes worse for them when the Aelrrigans, led by Paladin Pierce, the newly appointed Official, move in. They put a stop on some of the Arcanist magical pushes, but are now fighting a two-pronged battle. On the physical end, they need to prevent the Lothar from just butchering the Arcanist mages, and on the legal end, they have to prevent Arcanist lobbying from creating a magic-reliant Torse.
• The Lothar Order is forced to pull back from preventing Roca, needing to now deal with an incursion of Aelrrigans who have been given severe legal power over them. As a result they revert to more base ideas of getting their ideas across, cutting the steadily growing population of mages by hand.
• The tense political battlefield between the Lothar, Aelrrigans and Arcanists becomes Torse's most pervasive problem, as Ferian's attacks have now totally stalled and their food supplies are prepared.

RUTTGHER​

• Paladin Hawkings is fed the money he needs to start mass meritocratic protests, which end up bearing fruit. By time Synnove Vik is elected as an Official, magic is allowed in Ruttgher - much to the chagrin of the Wirtem population - and subsequently utilized to begin violently crushing the Vampire populations.
• The Aldurist Kathar initially join in, but Synnove Vik uses the law to squeeze some use out of them. But eventually, she begins to make their conditions worse, and worse, as to pressure them into fleeing Ruttgher altogether. Innviokh dies in captivity. The Bloodcasts try accountability forums, but they are now outgunned and outnumbered as the one thing the Wirtem and the Volarik populations agree on are a removal of Kathar.
• With the natives of Ruttgher primarily in charge, after great systemic abuse from Regalia and the collective peerage, Ruttgher seems to have little love or loyalty left for the Regalian Empire in general. Though they still pay lip service, and have a military outpost to keep in good graces with, it's clear that they might just start refusing noble vetoes in the future.
• The main issues in Ruttgher are the struggles of the Kathar, the lack of loyalty or love for Regalia, and the widening distance between Wirtem immigrants and Sori Velheim natives.

This week will be a little different!
This will function similarly to an Assembly. Roca and the Bureaucracy both will accept proposals related to these three territories.

Nobles & clergy can send in proposals for the next Assembly through the ticket bot.

Commoners can send in proposals for the next Roca Meeting through the ticket bot.

There are a maximum of five proposals.

The starting NOBLE proposal is:
"Have the Union's Wrath Legion extend its efforts to assist the Sihndar of Arlora in reclaiming the Ferian Hold."

The starting COMMON proposal is:
"Ship the Kathar in Ruttgher out of Ruttgher entirely and move them to another territory."​

The next State Sanction Noble Assembly will be on April 5th, 3:00 PM PST.

The next Roca Meeting will be on April 6th, 3:00 PM PST.
