Elections	July 4, 2009
Recently, Senator Sibyl went on foreign leave to visit her family. This left both the post of banker, which she filled after Sir Widfara was captured by monsters, and the Senate seat of Larur, which she filled after Sir Glomac 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 Torvaldo, as well as the former banker Widfara. 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 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.
