Sorry, I've been away... Hospital again. But I'm back now

Report please!

Hope you're well now!

Economy ticking over nicely, a number of clear guidelines being established. Soon we'll approach you about taxes ... and we think we've paid out everyone who needs to so far ...

Your Imperial Niftiness--

We have achieved a new record number of posts this past month: http://shireroth.kuroshiro.net/forum/vi ... f=1&t=8809

I trust you are feeling stronger now. You have been missed this past week.

Welcome back.

The Steward violated the protections of the Landsraad by ordering the Praetor to do something. Then once again disrespected the Judex by trying to ignore our judgment. I asked him to resign, obviously he declined. I think I even got, loosely, threatened with being replaced as Arbiter at one point...

Yes. It was pointed out that the Steward can technically replace the Arbiter. But it wasn't the Steward who said it. Guess who?

The Steward also violated two provisions of the DecreeBook.

The Judiciary are being partisan, one is emotionally unstable, the other is empire building. Upon the return of the Kaiser I gladly law down the Stewardship. But I request that Mortis and Fors be dimissed from the Judex and laymen selected in their place.

That is totally out of line. The Judex is trying to protect the Charter and laws of this nation, which you so gladly violate. Your statements regarding me and Erik are not only erroneous, they are deeply offensive. We derive no personal gain from our actions in the Judex, rather, we attempt to do our job. If you can't handle people disagreeing with you, perhaps you should take up gardening instead of governing.

Welcome back, your Niftiness. Your MiniEx continues to put off more treaties.

And I blasted a rocket into space with your name on it.

Yardistan continues to secretly plan to overthrow you, of course. Welcome back, your Niftiness.

Secretly? Isn't that something that Babhkans do?

Welcome back, your Niftiness, from your servants in the Judex.

Secretly? Isn't that something that Babhkans do?

I'm shocked and offended that you think the Babkhans are the only group in this nation secretly plotting the deposit of our Kaiser.

Yardistani don't need to plot in secret, they have the right to rebel when they want.

You're right... but I like plotting in secret... it's fun...

I'm just glad you're back.

Welcome Back Your Majesty!

(muttering)You can't overthrow someone who never........

No, no, nevermind, just get better!

BTW

The Steward also violated two provisions of the DecreeBook.

I knew there was something I liked about that Steward....

Jake, you might not take it seriously, but I don't think that the government should brake the laws.

Or break them, even ...

Let me clarify-

I applaud Ardy for being Ardy. If that is the largest upheaval that happens on his watch, you should thank your favorite god right away.

Now, I don't approve of what he (Ardy) did. I think Jonas should be able to say, "passed" "approved", "agreed",
"thankgodthatsoverwith", or whatever the heck he wants to. It's his gavel, and parsing his language is just plain persnickety and unworthy of a Shirithain noble. If he needs me to do it, I'll unsheath the Sword of Madness at his request.

(BLOOD BLOOD! Arrgg!)

Ahem.
But I approve of Ardy stretching the bounds of his office. The gentleman-presently-performing-the-functions-of-kaiser has issues to deal with (may he continue to strengthen!). This leaves a vacuum of power. As steward, functioning in the place of the Kaiser, Ardy could have declared martial law, suspended the Charter, and tried to haul everyone off to whatever substitutes for salt mines in Elwynn.

Probably wouldn't have gotten away with it, but it's "legality" would have had a case.

The Landsraad seems to be "feeling it's oats" and adding to it's power. The Arbiter's office also seems to be making it's own play for influence. Too real world.

So, in the real world, I support Law and Order, but in micronationry I'll swear allegiance to Zurvan and learn to speak Babkhi before I see the Letter of the Law rule over a place that deserves better.

What, exactly, is "better"?

I think it's a rare, smallish frog.

Thanks everyone.

Mike, you can now see your goal. You MUST get Jake to see the rule of law. For Zurvan's sake.

I would call that a lost cause. Nuns in India would call it a lost cause.

Hello your niftyness, my name is Pandora, the once old and now new again countess of Alexandretta. If your spirits ever need lift please don't hesitate to visit my beautiful county. You'll feel better in no time!

Can I get an AMEN!

AWOMEN.
