Arbitratorial Elections in Pian!
May 5th	Zanaras
With the strange disappearance of Ludovico Sforza, that mens that the position of Royal Arbitrator is up for applicants and election. The primary candidates are: Former Royal Arbitrator Finegus O'Shea, Henning II Augustus, Gwendolyn Elorie Archbane, and myself Zanaras Tian. Those are the ones who have actually announced their running to the realm atleast. Amongst the other candidates are: Darfix, Marie Euphrasia Le Fois, Nicholas, and Nnaoj.

Return of Finegus
May 10th	Finegus O'Shea
My fellow nobles, I am honored you have chosen me to serve as Royal Arbitrator again. I promise to continue working hard to make Pian en Luries a fair and safe place for all her nobility. Condolences to my fellow candidates. I know many of you are very talented, and I'm sure other fantastic opportunities will present themselves for you. Also, as a member of the Council of the Crown and now a High Council member again, I'll share what I know on the Duchy of Fissoa situation, since many of you seem to have concerns: I was not privy to all of the talks, but basically our former Queen spoke with the Duchy of Fissoa regarding our border with them. I believe the border she proposed was Palm Sea and Maf, but I don't know what was talked about outside of the Council of the Crown. Fissoa disagreed with the proposal, and invaded Moon Bay, which was supposed to be one of our regions, so the Queen declared war on them. Now they seem to be massing forces again in Palm Sea. If anyone has a more current description of the situation with Fissoa, please let me know. I'm sure our Grand Imperator has had some contact with their side. We'll convene and see where things are at. Regards, Finegus O'Shea

No War Perhaps?
May 6th	Zanaras
It remains to be accurately seen whether or not there will actually be a war between Pian en Luries and the Grand Duchy of Fissoa. Though both are actually in a state of war, militaries on both side seem unwilling to actually attack. Of course, this alludes to talks of peace and perhaps an end to this war that won't result in death on both sides. It may not help either that Fissoan forces were temporairly setback by a monster attack in the Palm Sea.

Duke Giask Missing!
May 5th	Zanaras
Rumors abound from a simple sickness to the practicing of forbidden forms of witchcraft as far as the disappearance of Royal Abitrator and Duke of Giask Ludovico Sforza. Of course this means that both positions he currently occupied are officially open for new applicants, and I for one am somewhat thankful he's gone.

"Gods Bored!" Declares Town Crier
May 6th	Zanaras
Somehow, someway, somebody had destroyed or stolen all proofs to titles that exist in the entirity of the world--to a point. Those who held positions over lands or belonged to a region however retained their titles, including those which grant them a high government office. This has of course created a bureaucratic nightmare. Though there are many reasons believed to be behind this, as one Town Crier declared and I found particularly funny, "The gods are bored!"
