Order Reports

Order Reports

Ordo Charta and Order Reports Repurposed October 20, 2009 For a while I wasn't sure exactly what would become of the Ordo Charta. The Order of Saint Iestyn was ignoring Ordenstaat for a long time, and becoming more and more fed up with me I'm sure. When I left the faith to join the Argent Order, which I had a decent part in creating, I had for a while decided I would simply leave the Ordo Charta to the wind to erode. Recently though, with the appointment of the first Archon of the Pen within the Argent Order, I remembered the Ordo Charta and Order Reports, and decided, "Why not have the Argent Order run this?". So now they are! I'm sure Duke Brynden will enjoy his extra duties! Then again I'll probably be doing most of this myself anyways. I suppose he can take credit for managing it or something. Anyways, the Argent Order itself will be covered in the next article, which I'll put out either later today, or more likely, tomorrow. Comment on this story. by Zanaras Tian, Silver Archon of the Argent Order      Chaos in Ordenstaat and the New Realm of Silverfall August 12, 2009 The chaos created in Ordenstaat was as far as I can tell due to a quiet leadership. Something I had tried to fix on a few occassions, obviously without success. I am of course, King Zanaras of the recently christened Silverfall. Being a priest of the Order of Saint Iestyn, I was allowed certain privileges within the ruling body of Ordenstaat, the Brotherhood, that regular nobles nor memebers the Brotherhood itself were typically allowed. Namely, I could speak against the government's actions with far less chance of reprimand. As you can see, I wasn't able to effect enough change for it to be worthwhile. Now, the rebellion we are currently seeing is due to, from what I could tell, the Brotherhood having little or no communication with the general public, as well as the Regent Pro Tempore Eddard having been rather quiet overall as of late. I was tired of putting up with Ordenstaat's inability to support my city, as well as the unchanging private circle that ruled Ordenstaat. So I decided to officially break off and forge my own realm, one where I could create what I thought to be the ideal government. Yes, officially, it is a Monarchy, but I am including several Republican elements as time goes by. One of them being a Chamber of Representatives who will be elected seasonally (subject to change as the realm is fleshed out) as well an official listing of claims much like Madina currently employs. Atleast one, if not two of the council positions will also be elected. It is like it says in my realm's public summary: Silverfall, the second of the two southwestern beacons of Dwilight. Life here is not easy, in fact it is very much the opposite. Silverfall strives to be the realm that Ordenstaat would not be. A realm open to it's nobles, where there are clearly set channels of communication so that even the most new of nobles can present his concerns to the Ruler. Quiet nobles will be ignored, and disloyal ones cut as soon as proof is found. There is only opportunity here if you prove you deserve it. Comment on this story. by Zanaras Tian, First King of Silverfall  Chaos Theory July 12, 2009 Chaos is a form of energy created by the most vile deamons in the lowest spawnholls of hell. The further away from these magicalholls the lesser the impact of this dark energy. Still if enough file beasts of Chaos concentrate their power and will, even normal beast and human can be influenced over a distance of over a 1000 miles. Chaos is the limitless ocean of spiritual and emotional energy that can flow through anybody. Only the most strongest of will and the Saints are able to force the power of Chaos completely out of their own body. Those of lesser will which are influenced by Chaos, have a faith that only lives in Nightmares. Madness, mutation, terrible illness and even bringing back the dead is an ability of this dark power. This also explains why the dead can sometimes can come back to life to terrorize lands that are normally safe. As stated, there is a small part of Chaos in any human or beast. Only if one is taken by an complete hatred, saddness, will of revenge or any other uncontrolled emotion this small part of Chaos can grow with such speed a human is taken over and their faith forever sealed.

As for why I am doing all this, well, if all goes well I will soon be Duke Twainville and I have goals I wish to meet. Duke Arden of Rettleville may remember me mentioning my goals, the Poryatown Press was one of those. It won't be in Askileon anymore though, no, it will be headquartered out of Twainville. This was one of those things I thought up in the spur of the moment though. I've been yearning to write another newspaper since the Lurian Weekly went defunct last October. Back then though, I had other obligations to attend to. Now however, I have more free time to work with, and thusly the Ordo Charta and Order Reports were born! For those who don't know, this newspaper is for the Order of Saint Iestyn, it's followers, and it's associated realms (Pian en Luries, Ordenstaat, and a bit of Fissoa too I believe). It is written by members of the faith, and managed by the Ordo Charta, a subdivision of the Ordo Procellae (the Order of Saint Iestyn leadership). If you're in the Order of St. Iestyn, I invite you to write a story and/or introduce yourself. Comment on this story. by Zanaras Tian Bishop of the Order
