+ | Westmoor’s work on the Peninsular has finally come to an end with the handing over of Gadlock. Ravier Nebehn Marshal of the WC returned triumphantly to Westmoor gaining a temporary position under Lord Justice Antonius Turner in [[Bruck]]. Westmoor left Gadlock in excellent condition with extensive rebuilding projects across the region. Kazakh was also left in reasonably good shape but understandably there is much for the islanders to do for the war torn city and there is only so much Westmoor can achieve in such a short space of time.<br> | ||
+ | Hopefully now that Moral and production is high Gadlock should remain aligned to its new realm. Marshal Ravier is continuing to look for a more permanent position with an estate somewhere in Westmoor. Region Lords interested should get in touch. | ||

+ | <span style="font-size: 16px">'''Queen Balkeese [[Church_of_Humanity/Reliquary|Canonized]] (May she rest in peace)'''</span> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Former Queen [[Indirik Family/Balkeese|Balkeese Indirik]] has been made a saint of the [[Church of Humanity|Church of Humanity]]. In a ceremony that was held yesterday in all churches of the COH the former Queen of Perdan was announced by King and Arch Cleric Jor to be a saint worthy of worship by the ecclesia. Below is an extract from a message received from King Jor by all members of the Church. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <i>…Though once a recognized apostate, she reportedly repented as she perished at the hands of the Ibladeshi heathens, recanting her faith in the doctrines of Sanctus Acies and repenting, embracing the Divine once more. It was under her reign as Queen of Perdan that Holy Church was again granted the religious freedom to preach across all reaches of that Kingdom. Across all of our home. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Faithful in the armies of Perdan claim they felt her presence as they marched on the Black City of Ibladesh, protecting and guiding them. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Recognizing this and her status as a martyr fighting in a declared holy war against Ibladesh, Balkeese of Montauban is hereby recognized as raised by the Divine as Saint Balkeese. She is proclaimed by the Ecclisarchy as the Patron of Defending Armies, Masons, Militia, and Templar Sergeants. She is viewed as a defender, a protector… </i> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Saint Balkeese is only the second noble in the history of The Church of Humanity to be recognised as a Saint (the first saint being Evangeline). A stone placed in the fortifications of [[Castle Ubent]] by Hostamir of Umbar bares to this day a short inscription dedicated to the Queen. | ||

+ | Kazakh has been officially returned to the Obsidian islanders since last week. With it the editor of this paper was also spotted returning to Westmoor. It was only when he reached the capitol that a passer by pointed out that his banner man was holding an Obsdian Islander flag picked up by mistake amongst the broken down buildings of Kazakh. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A lot of work was carried out by the WC in Kazakh but there is still much to be done. Most of the insurgents and activists were clamped down on and hung or imprisoned but what will take time is the actual rebuilding. Apart from this not a lot has happened in Westmoor. The [[Obsidian_News/February_1012_-_Issue#25/|Obsidian News]] has once again published the realm rankings list for this month with Westmoor coming in again at fourth place. Ibladesh city has also revolted (as seen in regional news) presumably after intense pressure and looting from the occupying forces there. Apparently Ibladesh priests have been responsible for some of the rebellious Ibladeshi regions cropping up once more such as [[Oc Lu Pesh]] and [[Dayr]]. Such regions are not likely to last but it is noted that Ibladesh is holding on with a somewhat humorous tenacity. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In Westmoor the region of [[Hagley]] is currently suffering due partly to high taxation and lack of estate support. Westmoor’s courtiers are working on the situation to try and pacify the populace and restore production. | ||

+ | |||
+ | Mathros [[Hagakure Family|Hagakure]] , editor of New Westmoor, has been given temporary control of [[Kazakh]] city in order to prepare it for being handed over to the Obsidian Islanders. Estates have been set up and the duke is looking for some charatable knights to help give their time to restore order and productivity in the city. Westmoor's courtiers, soldiers and priests have all been hard at work today doing what they can to rebuild. King Shady Soulja and King Jor are also present in the city to oversee the work and discuss matters. | ||

+ | |||
+ | Kazakh city once the capitol of the Sultanate of Asena and formerly part of the realm of the Obsidian Islanders, rebelled and declared Westmoor as their sovereign. This is embarrassing for Westmoor and our allies the islanders. Readers of this paper will no doubt remember that Gadlock is still occupied by Westmoor after it too rebelled against Obsidian rule last month. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Kazakh city was decimated again and again during the Sirion and Obsidian occupation towards the end of the Northern war so that presently there are very few people left alive. Westmoor is in communication with the Obsidian Islanders about how to handle the situation. It is possible the WC may be involved in a similar reconstruction project in Kazakh as has already been implimented in Gadlock. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <span style="font-size: 16px">'''Jaroslav banned!'''</span> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sir Jaroslav knight of Olligarch was today banned from the realm of Westmoor after publicly challenging the King to a duel. Antonius Turner sentenced the knight (as seen in regional news) to be excluded from the realm and cast out for inciting unrest amongst the nobles of Westmoor amongst other reasons. The duel with Ravier was not listed but understandably holds a lot of weight. It is unclear where Jaroslav will head to next but should he return to Westmoor without permission of the Lord Justice his life would be in danger. | ||

+ | |||
+ | Westmoor City was today in turmoil over the wounding of the WC’s Marshal Ravier Nebehn. Sir Jaroslav Principe has for the last few days been speaking out publicly against the Church of Humanity. What began as a disagreement with the King over the church of Ibladesh’s moral grounding in the south soon erupted into a heated argument over the moral standing of the COH. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>Although a lot of exchanges in debate were given in Westmoor I’ll quote just a few (in a somewhat futile attempt to keep things brief): | ||
+ | Sir Jaroslav was quoted as saying:</b> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <i>Look at the Church of Humanity and their arguments that the endless deaths of tens of thousands in the south is justified, because they don't follow the same religion. When, neither religions are particularly bad, or evil, though I would say the COH should be more accurately referred to as the Church Of The Morally Dubious… though they barely count as a religion at all.</i> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>The King was quoted as saying (After being accused of aggressively expanding COH):</b> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <i>…Holy Church is the only faith on this continent that forbids the use of faith to seize foreign lands. We are the only faith that practices solely preaching by the word, not by the sword. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Holy Church defends, protects. It does not attack.</i> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>Ravier Nebehn yesterday evening presented the following duel challenge which was drafted to all nobles of the realm:</b> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <i>Jaroslav of House Principe, | ||
+ | |||
+ | You have insulted my honour and the honour of my House. | ||
+ | |||
+ | By insinuating that the faith I believe in is morally dubious, and by extension that my nature is morally dubious, you are treading my good name and my service to the realm into the dirt. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I will not suffer such trespass on my good name, or the name of my family. I hereby challenge you to a duel until surrender in Westmoor.</i> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>Sir Jaroslav responded with a refusal to duel until surrender instead insisting on a duel until death:</b> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <i>Baron Ravier, | ||
+ | |||
+ | I decline to accept your demand for a duel until surrender, and instead propose that we duel until death or not at all. For matters such as honour must be defended with ones life in order to achieve satisfaction, anything less would be a poor attempt to gain satisfaction without truly defending their name and honour. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you see fit to truly defend your honour, then present yourself to me at the morning.</i> | ||
+ | |||
+ | The courts were today in turmoil in discussing the legality of the dual. Permission for a duel until Surrender was apparently granted by the Royal Council but a duel until death was not. As such discussion has been brought about over the interpretation of the Judge Bulletin line: <b>*Duels will be investigated on a case by case basis by the Council to determine its legality.</b> which Sir Armstrong openly questioned as weak. Lord Justice Antonius Turner openly condemned the Duel. King Jor expressed his disgust also and suggested that Marshal Ravier was also on hot ground, with the law, for accepting such a challenge. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Nobles of the realm are awaiting both for the decision of the Royal Council and to see whether or not Marshal Ravier recovers from his wounds. | ||
