Secondly, I would like to enshrine the 8 Do's as the Code of Chivalry for the land. It shall be posted in all classrooms, in all offices, and read to every peasant.
Thirdly, I would like to announce the beginning of efforts to organize and catalog Goldshire's past. I request all Goldshirerithians participate in this; making the records and stories of old Goldshire available and easily accessible would be beneficial for our records and development. Anyone with memories or stories of the Goldshire of the past is invited to share them with us.
Fourthly, I put forth as our Ducal song the following by Yvain Wintersong. This song shall be sung in all schools and places of work and in the fields by every peasant at the beginning of each day:
Fifthly, I request that people visiting these forums use proper etiquette. Everyone here is here to have fun or participate in an interesting hobby so everyone is encouraged to express themselves fully. However, this does not include crossing socially acceptable lines. I strongly request that some amount of social self-awareness is maintained.A golden land, by the shining sea
Where the sun shines golden eternally
Where the rain falls, softly and quietly
On the Goldshire that I love.
How springs and winters alike have flown
Without a country to call our own
Till a Duke returned to the golden throne
Of the Goldshire that I love.
So many glories and years have passed
Like flowers felled by the winter's blast
But a golden age has returned at last
To the Goldshire that I love
