Abington First is dedicated to the survival and supremacy of Abington; its interests, its regions, its people and dependencies, its nobility; above all else, we hold Abington First!

Summary

Abington First is a guild, (unaffiliated with and not endorsed by the Government of the Realm of Abington), which yet seeks to inspire and perpetuate a level of patriotism throughout the country.

Among other things, Abington First intends to publish a newspaper of the same name.

Guild Structure

The guild is structured rather simply, with three of the four member ranks differing not on face-seeking but only on titles held within Abington's peerage itself. The fourth being an honorary title for those whose enthusiasm for the goals of Abington and Abington First has earned them special distinction. The Founder and Second collaborate closely with the mundane workings of the guildhalls and publication.

History

Abington First began shortly after Gauihu's re-election as Arch Priest of Abington, which was shortly after a chain of controversies including the backstabbing by Charles, then the Duke of Wayburg, the banishment of Lady Docs Biatch for conspiracy to commit treason, and her subsequent slaying of Drago.

Gauihu founded the guild because he saw that mixed loyalties lead to these events: loyalties to a misguided sense of personal honour above Abington and loyalties to international guilds above Abington. It was his vision that Abington's troopleaders would see that it was Abington, above all, to which they owed their loyalty, their honour, their greatness.

The first guildhouse for Abington First, which he described as a "movement" more than a guild, was built in Anchorinn. The regions relative isolation from most of the realms activity lead to the guilds slow beginning.
