Statement issued by His Grace the Grand Duke of Helya Currill and
Itchin

I find the statement by Hunter Jordan above to be utterly misleading
in that he fails to mention that William has also seen fit to grant
large and powerful fiefs within the Holy Empire to certain Kimric
nobles.

I question how William can even bear to look his people in the face
after this gross betrayal of their heritage. True, his Imperial
Majesty, the Emperor Veltayn has seen fit to grant fiefs to Selyan
nobles for services rendered. But consider, at least we of the Empire
share a common culture and language with the Selyans, while the
Kimrics do not even have a proper fuedal system.
