+ | What can I say? Once again more calls for the king to abdicate have gone across the kingdom. There was a brief period of silence on the 5th of October but then on the 6th once again all Hades broke loose. To quote Antonius [[Turner Family|Turner]] today “This is Madness!”. No this is Westmoor! Sorry I couldn’t resist that. | ||
+ | |||
+ | So here’s what’s happened over the last two days. Yesterday Hergoervik Draekarne called (in another very long speech) for the king to abdicate. The reasons he stated were that he (his highness king Maedros) had 1: Driven the realm to rebellion. 2: Brought about a constitutional reactionary push 3: Failed in diplomacy by being unable to find a peace with Sirion and Fontan 4: Become an Absent Ruler. Bear in mind I grossly simplified the wording of these four points above. Knight Laszlo Umpeta Peticta also called for the king to abdicate. | ||
+ | Shortly after this statement, Gregor Relak Duke of Olligarch appointed Hergoervik Draekarne as the count of [[Hagley]]. <i>“In keeping with a long-standing tradition of recognizing outstanding leaders of the realm regardless of their opinions I have selected Hergoervik to rule over the lands of Hagley.”</i>. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Duke Corwin D’Saferate gave his full support in defending the king: <i>"King Maedros has not failed in his ability to lead us as a nation and he has not failed us in the political arena. Westmoor stands the closest we've been to an actual peace since Sirion betrayed us oh so long ago. The King and his ambassadors, as well as Duke Gregor, have been doing a brilliant job with this."</i> | ||
+ | Feoran Lionheart attacked Hergoervik on his short recent history in the realm and repeated the loyalist plea that the king should be given a chance to improve before being forced out. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Armstrong Ironsides entered the fray by calling for an actual referendum on the king’s leadership or as we’ve described it a ‘vote of no confidence’ which will finish after the period of three days (so I think we’ll find out the results of this on the 9th). As this is an important realm document we’ve of course posted it on the [[New_Westmoor/Archives/Letters|Letters page]] for its historical significance. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Today the king addressed all nobles of the realm as to the recent internal events in a very long statement which I’m just going to put on the letters page as well so that people are free to make their own minds up. All nobles of the realm are encouraged to read this and add it to their decision making process for the referendum. This letter was met with support from the loyalists but following this there has been further public attacks against the king notably by Rhakanvar [[Schumacher Family|Schumacher]] who publicly protested against the throne. Sir Jor Tanos pointed out that the reason we’ve been unable to find a secure peace with Caligus (as diplomatically we are only Neutral towards them) is due to the instability in Westmoor’s ranks i.e. His own removal from the throne by protest followed by Flaylen’s removal from the throne by protest and now the current instability in support for the king which he felt was needless. | ||

+ | <span style="font-size: 16px">'''Zartos returns to Fontan'''</span> | ||
+ | |||
+ | As you may well remember the rogue Zartos ut Daris was arrested on the 5th while attempting to assassinate the lord treasurer Maliki [[Nautilus Family|Nautilus]]. The Ambassador for Fontan Katalynfae [[Dragul Family|Dragul]] wrote to Ambassador Jor to explain: <i>“Sir Zartos was in Dulbin totally of his own accord and not by any orders of anyone in Fontan. In fact I have suggested to our new Supreme Justice that he be fined for being in the wrong region when we are discussing peace.</i> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Zartos we are informed has now been released though we cannot confirm whether or not a ban has been placed on him. | ||
