Roland received a letter from Calvin Kant, Duke of the Northern Region.
It was accompanied by a fingerprinted memorandum that expressed the Northern Region's intent of loyalty to His Majesty.
The letter itself talked about more trivial matters.
First, it asked when Roland would stage his accession ceremony, so that the Duke could prepare his journey to attend. This was the convention every time a new king was soon to be coronated.
The next question asked about the new policies, such as how they should be enforced, what the remaining powers of the nobles were, how succession arrangements should be made and what the management scope of the city hall should be.
These questions were predictable. But it was the last question which surprised Roland.
