Hollow County not likely Accepted

(Year 235, Spring) We finally get some official report from the recent meeting between HRM King Tarriot and Count Vladislaus of Hollow, taking place at the royal palace. Vladislaus Straud (68) claims Count of Hollow, his title going 4 generations back, to be officially accepted by the Royal Chamber.

Official posing at the Majesty's Office entrance: Mr Vladislaus Straud and HRM King Tarriot.

There exist no track of such a peerage in the official formal lists issued by the Royal Chamber, meaning there exists no Count of Hollow within the great peerage. However, House of Straud is fully registered with the public residents system, and the County seems mentioned occasionally, too, the Royal Chamber just never approved, and has nothing to do with those info pages.

Recently Mr Straud was observed arriving the royal palace, so, how did the meeting turn out?

Royal Palace hired new Staff

(Year 235, Spring) As advertised last year, the Royal Palace Office has been searching for two new members of staff; the 2nd Cook and not the least, the Crown Princess' Maid. This Spring they both were found and have already started their journey with the royals.

This time the introduction was a bit tedious, especially for the Maid who would need to greet HRH Crown Princess Emireza (24).

Effects of the Year 235 Election

(Year 235, Spring) These days all 4 political parties arranges their annual party get togethers. That's where they discuss their future politics, and this year they obviously take a step back evaluating the election  results, as well. The election was won by the RIGHT party (9 People Chamber seats). LEFT party also won 9 seats, but RIGHT formed an alliance with MIDDLE party (1 seat) and Church of Similius (1 seat), and by this got 11 seats whic h is enough to win the Prime Minister an the Cabinet.

Anyways, the resilts of any election will impact the many regions, so let's take a look on how this recent election will actually hit residents of Mazaloom!

Archery Rivalry Fest

(Year 235, Spring) This weekend saw the xth Archery Rivalry Fest in Gibbi Point. This is the annual gathering where aristocracy dresses up in Medieval outfits, mingle and enjoy sme food and entertainments, and of course not the least; challenge each other for the Archery contest where the winner gets to own the medal for the coming year.

Traditionally 8 Houses participated, but this year the number of contending families was reduced to 6. The reason is simple; only teenagers can enter the Archery contest and the same teen can not sign up two years in a row. With 6 contenders it gets easier to find those 6 teenagers.

So, who will win, and not the least - who will shoot an apple of the head of the leading Lady of last year's winning House?

Mr Straud visiting Royal Palace

(Year 235, Spring) The other day a mysterious person was observed arriving the royal palace, and shortly entering the huge building. Curious journalists got a picture of the arrival, and then eagerly awaited for the black man to return.

They had to wait more than an hour, which is quite long for a regular audience with the Monarch or the Royal Palace Office. So what was this all about? They made contact with the mysterious man before he managed to escape.

Adriana Hyde enters Politics

(Year 235, Spring) One of the new politicians with a seat at People Chamber, is Adriana Hyde (61). She lost the run for Northaven Mayor to Mr Marvin Hyggeloth (LEFT), but was listed 9th by the RIGHT party which meant she could grab the final seat won by RIGHT. That's not bad for someone totally unknown outside their own district!

Adriana Hyde is not involved with the party's core group, which count their top 5 politicians, meaning she might need to work a bit harder to influence community. But as a member of Ministry of Science & Education she has more than a foot on the political stage. Was this her preferred ministry?
