| Recently, Senator Sibyl Jackson went on foreign leave to visit her family. This left both the post of banker, which she filled after Sir Widfara Exiled was captured by monsters, and the Senate seat of Larur, which she filled after Sir Widfara Exiled was twice ousted by rebels and monsters in the region, absent. As Terran is a republic, both seats have been put up for elections. The Magistracy of Trade is being contested by many nobles, most notably our realm trader Sir Torvaldo Rimida, as well as the former banker Sir Widfara Exiled. Thus far, Sir Widfara's candidacy has been openly supported by Duke Vigilans Animus, Lord Vesna Valentine, Chief Magistrade Teniel Dell, and myself, Duke Hireshmont Vellos II. Sir Torvaldo Rimida has also announced his willingness to serve under Sir Widfara, and has announced that he will contest the election in Larur. Thus far, he is the only candidate in Larur, and, as the region has no knights, the Senate is almost sure to press for a swift election. UPDATE: On July 5 the votes for the Magistracy of Trade were counted and revealed. Sir Widfara Exiled won handily with 57.60% of the votes cast. Sir Torvaldo Rimida came in second with just 15.21% of the votes cast. | ||
