Ducal Decree #8: Baronial Empire of Sermolot

Be it ordered, as per the request of Baron Jonas of Antya, that:

I. The Barony of Antya is hereby DISSOLVED;

II. The Counties of New Jasonia, Demesos, and Audentior, formerly of Antya, are hereby reconstituted as a new Barony, to be called Sermolot, with Jonas as Baron;

III. Sermolot, though a Barony under Imperial Law, shall have permission to use the equivalent nomenclature of "Baronial Empire" for "Barony" and "Senechal" for "Baron", with the understanding that no pretense of other status is being made;

IV. Sermolot shall be considered the successor to Antya for all intents and purposes;

V. The former Antyan Counties of Blackrock, Vervollkomnung, Schlangen, and Automatica shall be released and reassigned to other Baronies, according to the agreement of the Barons.

Done in the year 3587 ASC by the hand of
SHYRIATH BUKOLOS
Count of Sunderspray,
Dutch of Kildare

On that note, I'd like to state a personal preference that, however the reassignment goes, I'd like the Baronies to remain contiguous as much as possible (of course, that'll be a somewhat fiddly business with an island-themed Barony, but you know what I mean).

[Andreas the Wise]

Currently Lumina's Light has two, and Hallucination three, whereas I have four counties. So giving two to each of them would make it fairly even (well, making Hallucination slightly more prominent, but it can have Vervollkomung, which is a very small one ....)

[Jonas]

Indeed. Thank You, My Lord.

[Andreas the Wise]

I thought more on the matter, and I'll take Automatica. When I'm done with things in Gralus and Nelaga, I have plans...

[Jonas]

Excellent.
