The Lord of Viritas

[Folian]

2169 AC

Word begins to travel from amidst the bustling township; new spreading of a new shift amidst its leadership.

Beatrice A. Okabe, The Curator of Viritas announces that she has stepped down from the mantle of head of state for the commerce centre, with the reigns being passed to another.

Zho the Sable, formerly the Viceroy and second-in-command, is named Lord Vicarian and granted total authority over Viritas. Beatrice herself steps down to a position among the select members of the town's council to continue serving as an advisor and otherwise contribute in which ways she deems fit.

The Nephilim offers a short address to the populous upon his inauguration.

For years have I toiled, now. For it is the eye of my ambitions to see this sprouting hamlet grow into something greater. Far grander. Far more beautiful.

Little has changed. For ever do I remain both master and servant of my people. May I remain yet your greatest confidant, as needed, and may I continue to grant unto you the shade of a mighty oak by which you might grow beneath.

Evermore shall the legacy of Her Grace, The Brushstroke Angel, prove to continue as our inspiration and muse for the path which we walk going forward.

Forget not the wings of freedom, my friends. Let your souls sing with wonder, and remember the beauty that lay upon the horizon.
