Template:Current Events

Weekend of the 18th/19th
It is my duty to announce that do to mundane personal issues, his majesty, King Sir Tseng is stepping down from the kingdom monarch position.

We will need to hold an althing at the next kingdom event (Nov 16th, Ithra) to remedy this situation. According to our corpora, the Regent would step up and assume the role of Monarch. Our current Regent is Aristiri. According to the June 2005 althing, she is not allowed to hold the position of monarch. So....

Voting issue #1. Is the Kingdom of Blackspire willing to let Aristiri fulfill her Regent responsibilities by allowing her to complete the term as Monarch?

(She still would not have access to any kingdom moneys as that was a separate althing ruling.)

Voting issue #2. If the first vote fails, we will then need to elect a Pro-Tem Monarch.

Regardless of what happens at this althing, King Tseng and myself have made a temporary ruling that as Regent, Aristiri will act as head of the kingdom effective from now until the Nov 16th Althing has made a determination.
