The Progressive Core of the Republic

GOVERNMENT REFORMS

• Large shifts in ranks are set underway as the Order stirs. Leadership structures are changed, with the arrival of Sarina Mellows on the seat of Captain-General. Agne Talalt leaves her position as Faith-Captain to become the new Archbishop, an advisory role. In her vacant place, Anya Talalt becomes the new Faith-Captain, a new title of Vicar-General. Gabriel Richter remains the War-Captain, in charge of the Militant Wing.
  
  
• Soon after the 50th anniversary of the Republic, Garret Richter, the previous Archbishop and leader of the Martyr's Vigil, has been confirmed dead. His death was a ritual killing during a dinner by one of his companions using a blade--the intent of such not clear, though it was witnessed by many friends and family. The new High Chancellor of the Republic after Nix Bargiel's death is currently unknown.
  

ADDITIONS AND CIVIL REFORMS

• Before the departure of the current Faith Captain, the Tribunal receives its own reforms. While not currently present in the Primer, there is talk of a new Patron being added. The Goddess of Destruction and Change, Vinaska. What tangible effects to be had on the Order as is up to debate--yet the Wards of the Tribunal say an updated version of the Primer is soon to release, with proper additions and edits to the tome to come.
  
  
• Proper funding sees the Vigil expand at large. The wall overlooking the Shadowlands, previously to keep the Empire known as Skarnfel at bay, finds itself finally complete. Though there may not be a direct threat from that direction, it is a statement to the Martyr's Vigil capability to Endure. The Castle-City transforms into a Castle-Kingdom, work upon public structures making its way to reach the Northern Wall created in the times of Extinction only a few decades ago.
  
  
• New recruits wishing to join the Militant Wing or Faith Wing are continued to be sought. Sorcerers seeking to join the Order are advised to contact the Captain-General, and people wishing to help with the crafts are to contact Anya Talalt. The Knight-Order continues its efforts to be both the Shield and Sword of the Republic; continuous preparations being one of them.
