The Fox Provides
Posted by Jaenelle on 11/22/21
The Watch Towers of the Lyceum were built to protect the people that I have vowed to. A chain of structures created to forewarn of dangers so we are never without insight. So we are never caught off guard. The Lyceum is stronger when we stand unified.
The Fox provides. Each domain was assisted with the creation of a caravel, the creation formed from an alliance between house Velenosa and the Faith. Caravels opened waters that were not always available. It provided each Domain in the Lyceum with the freedom of travel, To extend our reach in trade and assistance to those we have made promises to. I wanted to ensure that each Lycene house had the ability to protect their own, even as they protect one another.
Through my tour of the Lycrum I was honored to witness homes built, armies raised, infrastructure projects completed, life saving medicines provided, dangers faced. People of the Lyceum are not living but flourishing. Thriving. Protected. What leader would not be be satisfied with that?
Me.
I have assisted in creating the largest trading route within the Lyceum, increasing domain incomes by upward to two hundred percent. I oversaw the construction of a vast library in Lenosia, second to size only to the Great Archives and which Eleyna saw fit to name after me. I have worked with the Scales of Cardia, to broker a partnership with the Lyceum and Compact which saved countless lives. I consistently reward those who put the Lyceum before self, working towards common goals and achievements.
Even now, as people cry out I have not done enough, I am painstakingly overseeing the reinforcing of each domain. I am meeting with houses, providing resources, and making plans with the leaders to strengthen flaws, to make sure that each House's lands have a fighting chance to withstand.
The Lyceum saved my life, and I have always done my best to show my love, dedication, and duty to repay what is unpayable. Each house in the Lyceum has benefitted from what I have done. Each member of my family has benefitted from what I have accomplished. What I will accomplish because I am far from done.
Try to keep up.

The Fox of the Lyceum
--- Blackshore Stance via Aedric ---
Your accomplishments as regent are great and have contributed significantly to the economic and military growth of the Lyceum. Unfortunately, this apology for your decision to usurp a bloodline does not discredit the concerns of your vassals made public at the Assembly of Peers.
--- Rubino-Zaffria Stance via Grazia ---
Those under the rule of an usurper do not understand how usurpation works. The Archduchess supports her vassals, just as her predecessor did. The Lyceum thrives and stands unified against outside threats under Archduchess Jaenelle just as Archduchess Eleyna would have wanted.
--- Seraceni Stance via Ophira ---
No one is doubting your accomplishments in the Lyceum or as Regent. But clearly you've become a fox in a hole if you feel the need to plaster all you've done in a proclamation the moment you feel threatened by appropriate lines of questioning. Do try not to cave.
--- Tessere Stance via Gaspar ---
While the concern from those beyond the borders of the Lyceum is undoubtedly sincere, those of us possessing a rational mind within have every confidence in our Archduchess. The right person always sits on our throne and if not, we have our ways of rectifying it.
--- Igniseri Stance via Quenia ---
House Igniseri stands behind the Archduchess and absolutely everything she's done to help improve the Lyceum and the choices which she has made; we have grown with each improvement made. The Lyceum stands strong under her leadership and direction.
--- Thrax Stance via Natasha ---
The rightful heir of Thrax, at the time, abdicated to the current High Lord after the terms for such were set between grown adults. I think in this instance my lady Grazia does not know how usurpation works.
--- Amadeo Stance via Duarte ---
In the Lyceum the prize always goes to the most pragmatic and cunning.
--- Magnotta Stance via Artorius ---
Raised in a military meritocracy, there are benefits to recognize this ahead of bloodlines. The Grand Duchess has answered the questions of the concerned and House Magnotta stands with the Archduchess.
