Nobles assembly of Yrkanis's notice board .

The Nobles Chamber of the Verdant Heights has gathered in the Royal Palace of Yrkanis, on Quinteth, Thermis 29, 4th AC 2580*, and was lead by His Grace the Duke Rodi di Varello, counsellor of the Karan Stevano.


Were attending:
Filira Erminantius, Viscount of Avalae, leader of the House Les Gardiens du Savoir
Filirae Ozwomen, Ambassadress towards the Rangers
Filirae Remigra, Lady in waiting of the Karae, leader of the House Liberi Margus
Filirae Nanouh, Lady in waiting of the Karae
Filira Zakkk, Clerk of the Court retired
Serae Shepeng, Cleric novitiate
Serae Alco, Lady in waiting of the Karae
Ser Copal, Royal scrivener for Avalae
Serae Tenebrae, subject of the Kingdom
Serae Leeisnecyene, subject of the Kingdom
Ser Ciogio, subject of the Kingdom
Ser Dukenono, subject of the Kingdom
Ser Kraul – subject of the Kingdom
Serae Decci
Ser Smoker
Serae Seipora
Ser Khalaoden
Ser Seternulon**


Accordingly to the reunification of the assemblies of the Nobles and the Clergy, Cleric Novitiate Shepeng opened the session with a fervent prayer to the Goddess.

His Grace, the Duke Rodi, has then ennobled the leader of the House “Liberi Margus”, Serae Remigra, in agreement with the new rules about ennoblements. She has immediately sworn again to serve faithfully the Karan, the Kingdom and Jena.
Filirae Ozwomen has also proposed the names of two members of her House for a similar promotion: ser Fateciy and Serae Cocogirl. She’ll have a file sent to His Grace to prove what makes these two homins worthy of such a reward.

Serae Alco, ambassadress towards the Federation, has then reported the last news from the Lakes.
First, the offer for two seats in the kitin study college has been officially delivered. The names of the tryker participants should be known after the next Taliari assembly.
On a commercial plan, a water and beer road is planned between the Lakes and the Desert. Details will have to be followed closely since some rumours speak about a possible secret exchange of weapons on this occasion. Ambassadress Alco will keep alert on this point.
Among additional points, the banners for the tryker cities are done, except for the one of the capital. The flyners study hasn’t been addressed because its responsible had to leave. Some debates took place regarding the presence of marauders among the Guardian of Shadows. Incidentally the federal guards will be recalled from Windermeer, and their presence in Crystabell will be discussed at a next local assembly.
Last, the tryker fair should open around the beginnings of Medis, 1st AC, 2581.
Besides, the responsible for the Guardians of Shadows has let imply that she and her kind leaned towards joining the Trytonists. The question of informing or not the Kuild about this resurgence in the tryker lands, has not been decided during the public debates. Serae Alco will keep a particular attention on this affair.

Ambassadress Ozwomen will attend soon the first ranger assembly since her appointment, and will present then her letters of credence.

Ambassador Erminantius has mentioned the massive disaffection of the Zoraïs for their government: initiates were seldom at the various assemblies he attended. And he received no answer to the proposal for two seats in the kitin study college.

Last, His Grace allowed a fyros homina to speak, since she had demanded it at the very beginning of the Chamber without any dignity. She hasn’t made a favourable impression and has finally been expelled after claiming vehemently for an army of a hundred of our soldiers to be placed under her command. All of this because she had seen kitins in a kitin lair. The incoherent words of Deamla, it is the name that the homina gave for herself, would have been purely and solely ignored if not for some troubling reports from Filirae Ozwomen, who mentioned big kirostas in various places of the Kingdom. So His Grace asked the Nobles to organize the needed checks.

This incident closed the public part of the Chamber.

The Nobles Chamber of the Verdant Heights has gathered in extraordinary session in the Royal Palace of Yrkanis, on Prima, Pluvia 7, 1st AC 2581*, and was lead by His Grace the Duke Rodi di Varello, counsellor of the Karan Stevano.

Filirae Ozwomen, Ambassadress towards the Rangers
Filirae Remigra, Lady in waiting of the Karae, leader of the House Liberi Margus
Filira Zakkk, Clerk of the Court retired, leader of the House La Firme

The unique subject of this extraordinary gathering of the Nobles Chamber was the question of the participation, or not, of the Fyros in the tournament organised by Serae Zendae in order to prove that she had the required abilities to fulfil the position of Master of Arms that she’s applying to.

At the previous assembly in Yrkanis, it had been envisioned to invite the Fyros with reservations that the matis trainings would be convincing. Since then, the local assembly in Avalae has decided against such an invitation. Advices from Davae and Natae have then been required.
Waiting of the final decision, the date for the tournament has been postponed***.

As a preamble, Serae Zendae has reported on the trainings that have already taken place. Especially, she has thanked the House La Firme for its regular participation, and for the attendance of some of its seasoned warriors who will reinforce the matis team for the tournament.
Serae Zendae has also said she was aware of the specific obligations of the cities of Davae and Natae, and is then ready to agree with them on adapted schedules to allow them to join in the trainings.
Nonetheless, and in as things stand at present, Serae Zendae doesn’t have the two big matis teams she considers to be required to have a reasonable chance to see Matis win.

The cities of Davae and Natae have then voted in favour of inviting the Fyros.
Filira Zakkk indicated that the House La Firme didn’t see any opposition for inviting the Fyros. The minutes of the last Avalae assembly mentioned nonetheless that the advice of this city was against allowing the fyros patriots to join in. Ser Copal has also precised that the leader of his House, Filira Erminantius, had worried during said assembly, that the ones who would vote in favour of the invitation wouldn’t be joining in the tournament.
Cities of Davae and Natae have then explicitly committed, through Filiraei Remigra and Ozwomen, to provide fighters.

As a consequence, the Fyros will then be allowed to join in. Nonetheless, due to the lack of official relationships with the Empire, there will be no official invitation. Moreover, a limit of two teams per nation will be added in the tournament rules. Serae Zendae being in charge of this task.

The Chamber has then been closed, and most of the attendees have gone to the Arena for an impromptu training, where they have been joined by some additional subjects.

*** The new date for the tournament has been set on January 11th, 2015.

The Nobles Chamber of the Verdant Heights has gathered in the Royal Palace of Yrkanis, on Dua, Folialy 14, 3rd AC 2581*, and was lead by His Majesty Stevano-Karan.


Were attending:
Filira Erminantius, Viscount of Avalae, leader of the House Gardiens du Savoir
Filirae Ozwomen, Ambassadress towards the Rangers
Filirae Remigra, leader of the House Liberi Margus
Filira Zakkk, Clerk of the Court retired, leader of the House La Firme

In the absence of the Novitiate Shepeng, who was late, Stevano-Karan himself led the prayer to Jena that opened this session of the Nobles Chamber.

Stevano-Karan has then addressed the first topic of importance, namely his ambition to bring back the matis botanical art to its former glory and grandeur. So he entrusted the renowned botanist Cuiccio Perinia with the mission of creating unique botanical creations, starting with a barrier of plants of dazzling beauty, able to protect Yrkanis. The Vassals who are willing to support this undertaking will be able to do so in the Court of the Karae, that will be gathered soon*** on this topic.


Filira Zakkk has then mentioned a surprising discovery he made in the kitinlair of the Almati Woods. A “thing”, that is growing and that he didn’t manage to recognise, but that seems to be disturbing the kitins around, in one of the galleries that lead to the room of primary eggs. So an expedition will be dispatched soon to inquire into this phenomenon. The Alkian Order, Filirae Remigra, and the Gardiens du Savoir have already volunteered to join it.
The question of the authority of the Rangers on the kitinlair has been risen, but the Karan reminded everyone that the Rangers were only in charge of the surveillance of the kitinlair. So, as such, they will be informed of the expedition. Details will be settled among the participants after the Nobles Chamber.


Stevano-Karan has then offered the House La Firme the remarkable honour of rising it to the rank of Noble House, as a reward for the significant investment of its members in his Court and in the Karae’s one, in the organisation of events such as the late show fashion in Avalae, or in the war effort of the Kingdom.


From there, the Assembly naturally pursued in the same vein as this last topic, with a contribution by Serae Zendae about the training status of the matis team for the incoming tournament. Na-Karan has shown himself very disappointed that only one team had been formed to represent the Kingdom, as he was waiting for two. Serae Zendae will then continue her interviews in order to make this second team. In the meantime, Stevano-Karan has congratulated the Vassals who had already volunteered, and has assured them that he would keep his eyes turned towards them. Starting with the day of the tournament, since it will be honoured by his attendance.

Once this case closed, speaking was given to the ambassadors.
Serae Alco indicated that there was nothing new from the Lakes, and Filira Erminantius has reported the same lack of change in the situation of the Witherings.
From the Rangers, the only piece of news was the appointment, or the renewal, of ambassadors. Filirae Ozwomen gave the names of Zorroargh for the Kingdom, Daomei for the Theocracy, Geyos for the Empire and Kiwalie for the Federation.


After a technical aside regarding the status of Ser Khalaoden who’s acting as translator for the Vassals of Davae but who isn’t a Vassal himself and then can only attend the public sessions of the Chamber, Filira Salazar has reminded that he had been entrusted by the Karan to investigate about the differences in the memories of the homins. The Karavan intervention in Almati Woods has for sure provided explanations about the reasons, but doesn’t change a thing regarding its consequences. In answer to the question of Filira Salazar, Stevano-Karan has confirmed that he wanted to see these various memories preserved and gathered in the library****. As an historian, Filira Salazar claimed himself to be perfectly aware of the necessary obligations commanded to public documents, compared to the publications open to the sole historians.


After a reminder of the respect due to the Karan, the Cleric novitiate Shepeng has pronounced the prayer for the end of the Chamber, and the session has been closed.

La Filirae Luxee se préparait pour la guerre. Elle jeta un oeil sur le parchemin annonçant une réunion des nobles du royaume et haussa les épaules pensant qu'il y avait des priorités. Elle irait à la prochaine.. peut être...

The Nobles Chamber of the Verdant Heights has gathered in the Royal Palace of Yrkanis, on Quarta, Germinally 16, 1st AC 2582*, and was lead by His Majesty Stevano-Karan.


Were attending:
Filirae Ozwomen, Ambassadress towards the Rangers, leader of the House Spears of Eora
Filirae Remigra, leader of the House Liberi Margus
Filira Erminantius, Viscount of Avalae, Ambassador towards the Theocracy, leader of the House Les Gardiens du Savoir

Serae Zendae, Hamazan and Master of Arms
Ser Dukenono, vassal of the Kingdom
Serae Zhoi, Ambassadress of the Theocracy towards the Kingdom
Ser Zorroargh, representative for the Rangers
A Karavan agent**


The Novitiate Shepeng has open the session with the traditional prayer to Jena.


Stevano-Karan has then addressed directly the topic of this Assembly, namely the recent kitin attacks against Yrkanis.
On this subject, a Karavan Agent was also attending and has shared the observations of the Karavan, especially about the increased activity of the kitins in the Knoll of Dissent, that leads to consider that a massive attack will take place against Yrkanis in the coming days, in all likelihood around Folialy 25. The Karavan has installed a net of sensors around the Knoll in order to sound the alarm in case of the kitins crossing the border. Moreover, the forces of the Karavan will join the defenders of Yrkanis at the gates of the town as a last resort.
The Karavan agent was also intereste in the homin recent activity around the Tunnel of Woe. So Filirae Ozwomen detailed her last expeditions, the big number of kitins that could be observed in the tunnels, and the presence of a strange blue kipesta.
The first expedition hadn’t caused any abnormal activity of the kitins on the sensors of the Karavan, but the second one caused a very aggressive reaction on their part, including an attack against Yrkanis. The white rotoa of the Almati Woods has been considered as a possible source for a general disorder in the kitins behaviour; but the Karavan couldn’t confirm nor disprove any relationships, since Almati is out of reach of their sensors.
On the other hand, the presence of the so-called Deamla, whose presence had already disturbed a previous Chamber of the Nobles, has been confirmed during the second expedition, where her behaviour could only be called raging madness. The Karavan agent incidentally confirmed that this homina was considered as possibly dangerous, and that she had once belonged to a now disappeared organisation that fought kitins called “Council of Homins”, of which she could have kept some powers or knowledge. The Karavan agent strongly suggested to keep her away from any new expedition to the kitin-lair until her responsibility, or lack of, for the kitins irritation can be proven. And to question her as soon as possible.
Finally, the Karavan agent mentioned that she would ask her superiors for data that could be shared with the homins regarding the big blue kipestas, who are moving between the kitin nests and fortresses, and seem to act there as messengers or even ambassadors.
She finally took note of the news transmitted by Filira Erminantius, regarding the kitin of the depths kept captive that seem to be far less vigorous than it used to be.

In answer to all these worrisome news, the priority given by the Karan was to face the imminent invasion. So he tasked the Master of Arms Zerae with the preparation of a defence strategy, and the Nobles and attending ambassadors with the gathering of as many vassals and allies for this.


The Novitiate Shepeng has then pronounced the closing prayer, and the session has been closed.

Naema decided this information about this 'Deamla' interested her. She wanted to know more of this 'Coucil of the Homins.'

 Where did they come from? What was their agenda? What was their power or knowleged? What was Deamla's involvement and why was it so disturbing? What did she do?

Maybe it was an avenue Naema wanted to help and pursue as well. Her anger at the Matis government was at a fever pitch!
 
What would quell this anger?
 
She decided to read up on what this Elias Tryton was all about....
