_________________________________________________________________________
The Marquessa Trinity ab Brayston, second daughter to Cenvald ab
Brayston and younger half-sister of Katarina de Winter, has recently
arrived in Lithmore. Her entourage appears to mostly consist of Brayston
natives, including a mysterious elder gentleman rumored to be practically
bedridden... And only one body servant, a maid of perhaps fourteen.

Rimilde's approval shifts from Neutral to Approved.
A joint effort by ranking members of the Physicians' and Reeves' guilds
emerged in the wake of continued controversy surrounding the Lady
Justiciar, their voices a counter-point to murmurings of disapproval. At
their fore was Shaylei of House le Orban, the current Prime Medicus and
wife of Earl Marshall de Moradar. She released a statement in support of
Rimilde von Rievirtkrintz:
"I was saddened to hear of recent negative talk of the Lady Justiciar, as
my own experience has been quite the opposite. Lady von Rievirkrintz has
demonstrated sound leadership skills in the eagerness with which she builds
relationships with other guilds, seeks the advice of others in her
decision-making, and comports herself in her dealings with her
subordinates. It is not an uncommon practise in the city for those early
on in their career to assume the responsibility of leadership; those of us
who do so have, in concert with the more experienced among us, grown to be
well-loved and highly capable leaders. It is my considered opinion that
Rimilde von Rievirkrintz has the intelligence, initiative, and talent to
succeed in her role; the Madison leadership therefore affirms its
solidarity with the Cityguard, and its support of the Lady Justiciar and
her staff in times to come".

In subject of: Galen Fairweather Appointed as Magnate of Lithmore! (Edited by Takta)
Date : Fri Aug 21 05:42:23 2015
Expires : Wed May 16 05:42:36 2018
To : all
_________________________________________________________________________
The Grand Magnate has announced the appointment of a new Magnate of
Lithmore, replacing the recently retired Corlan dul Nulaam. The position
was bestowed upon a relative unknown: tailor Galen Fairweather, newly
charged with the care of the Vellum & Velvet. Given the position on the
evening of his sixteenth birthday, he is the youngest to hold the title in
the Guild's history.
Once a tavern worker at the Bear and the Boar, Galen Fairweather was
'discovered' by the Grand Magnate Emma ab Courtland, who encouraged him to
join the Merchants Guild soon after his appearance at an upscale charity
ball. After joining, the Grand Magnate saw to his training personally, and
he displayed a prodigious talent for his craft, reaching Journeyman status
in almost no time at all - his clients include the likes of noble ladies
Haizea von Mazina and Farra dul Baildana, whom he provided with stylish,
yet austere and functional outfits that better suited the lean times during
the winter of 366.
"I am only able to accept the honor of this position because of the
enormous amount of faith placed in me," said the new Magnate. "Though the
Magnate is a position of leadership, my intention is not to be served, but
to serve - and I will do everything I can to use my position to better
serve the people of Lithmore, and work for the good of the realm as a
whole." The Grand Magnate Emma ab Courtland was noted as stating, "I have
no doubt that, given a little time, he will one day have my office."
The Magnate assures that he will make up for his lack of experience by
following the counsel of those better established in the Guild - including
the Grand Magnate, Emma ab Courtland, who will continue her mentorship
role. He plans to take the role in a social, diplomatic direction, and
among his goals are to expand the infrastructure surrounding the Guild's
charitable works as well as maintain good relationships between the
Merchants Guild and Lithmore's other organizations, as well as between the
Guild and the public.
The new Magnate's humble Freeman origins are a point of discussion
surrounding the appointment - while some doubt his ability to navigate the
waters of upper-class propriety, others feel his perspective will help
inform decisions that have an impact on the common folk.

The church bells sounded, calling everyone to River Square. When the
people arrived, Grand Inquisitor Zaerieth Silverclaw led Page Bryce Potter
out, with no physical markings on him, but still in manacles. She
explained that sometimes, we as the Lord's followers, must grant mercy in
order to relieve a man's suffering. She then proceeded to guide the boy to
the pyre platform, where, despite his shackles, he attempted to climb the
post. After a little work, and assistance from the Earl marshall, the
cleansing was conducted, after which, the Grand inquisitor took questions.

News spread quickly through the city about the arrival of a noble into
Lithmore. Arriving from the west, a caravan of soldiers were seen stopping
outside the gates. Two members left the caravan and entered the city,
while the remaining men started heading back the way they came. The noble
in question soon made an appearance at the Queen's Inn, introducing himself
as Adgen ab Grenthel, the Marquis of Dastur. Why he's here is full of
uncertainty. And oddly enough, not much has been able to be gleaned about
the March he hails from.

Amidst an already turmoiled guild left with new leadership and old

stepped down citing responsibilities surrounding her home court. Boldly
stepping into her well-trained shoes is none other than recently elevated
Tuan op Sugiyama. His first order of business is soon made clear, a
Kingdom-wide call for any and all Troubadours to step forward and take the
mantle of Poet Knight.

Expires : Fri May 25 00:38:33 2018
To : all
_________________________________________________________________________
To celebrate Spring Awakening, the end of the winter, and his 35th
birthday, Lord Ariel le Orban dul Damassande will be holding a party at the
greenhouse on Viridian Way in Northern Lithmore. All are invited,
regardless of social class; the Spring Awakening revocation of sumptuary
will be in effect, so that anyone can feel free to celebrate the season in
style.
It has been years since the eccentric Lord threw a public party - the last,
in fact, was while he was still Regent prior to his disgrace and exile from
Court. Gossipmongers suggest the affair is likely to be scandalous,
featuring all sorts of indecency.
(OOC Date: Sun, Sept 6th, starting 7 pm est. This is codewise after Spring
Awakening ends because of IRL time constraints, but I'm hoping we can all
agree to ignore that.)

Shaylei's approval shifts from Approved to Loved.
Talk from Madison staff and patients turn, recently, to the Prime Medicus,
Shaylei le Orban, centring predominantly on work undertaken since returning
to her position at the helm of the Physicians' Guild. In particular, the
Prime Medicus and Epion were noted supervising renovations and cleaning in
the hospital kitchen, storerooms, and private wards, personally organising
the care of important figures in the Capitol, and organising the triage and
clinic in an effort to provide the guild with more regular revenue. Though
some expressed curiousity about the recent re-shuffle of the leadership,
most seemed positive, given the flux of work, of the change.

Her Holy Honour, Zaerieth Silverclaw explained that he was a heretic who
chose his own way rather than the way of the Lord. For his part, le
Wattkil voiced aloud that the Grand Inquisitor was evil, as well as all

It is said that a riot took place after the cleansing, with rocks thrown
