Recent Lily News Last month
Lily's provisional government set the ball rolling on an ambitious reform project that seeks to broaden the region's brand and scope across the various aspects of NS Gameplay. You, our loyal, adoring, somewhat snarky fans, have no doubt been waiting with bated breath to hear these updates and important happenings. During the last month, we have spent the majority of our time sleeping and
uplifting the community here on NS with sagacity, tact, and our solemn dispositions, but we have made marginal strides towards our internal goals as well. Believe me.
Liliarchy is a slave-driver. Help me. Condemn him please. So, without further ado, onto your Lily-related news fix.
Lily Ratifies a Constitution and Holds Elections After months of preparation and drafts, Lily's newly established
Assembly of the Rízes ratified the
Constitution with the assent of the
Louloúdia and the
Symfonía. This has established the principle basis for regional law and created a government structure flexible and defined enough to confront the challenges posed by Lily's more active and open-minded approach to NS. Adhering to the new constitution, week-long elections were held by order of the
Louloúdia that brought a new government to power with
Feu de Glace at its head. Officials are as follow:

Whispers of bygone ages, times when the world was yet young and the dawns it numbered were few in their rosy splendor, echo through the branches in the austere twilight. Mists curl about the branches of sentinel pines and sycamores like burial shrouds. The hooded figures wear masks or ornate helms depicting nymphs and satyrs and beasts and flowers and saints and figures of lore. They fan out in a circle, each member drawing a sword and letting it fall with a thud into the damp soil of the forest. Three figures, sporting black and silver cloaks, form in front of the only unmasked initiate.
The girl strolls forward haltingly, her lip quivering from shock, dismay, or uncertainty. "Kneel, worthy one!" the central figure intones authoritatively, his voice deep and thunderous. She complies quickly, scrambling down to her knees. "
Sweeze, you have walked in the shadow of the Nine Worthies, you have raided, you have defended, you have served, you have led, you have spoken with the voices of men and angels alike, and we commend you into the service of Lily's highest echelons," he declared, swinging a dulled broadsword down hard enough to bruise her shoulder. Sweeze winced and let out a small grunt. "Arise now a knight of the
Symfonía that you may go forth and beautify the world with wreathes and laurels and garlands of flowers wild and wilting."
Then she arose and walked back through the eves in the predawn light.
Sweeze, one of NS's more promising young raiders, has been promoted to the Symfonía (High Council) in recognition of her outstanding leadership and mentoring capabilities. She has facilitated several dozens raids for a litany of organizations, including
Lily,
Hartfelden,
The MT Army, and
The Yeet Army. We have the highest confidence that she will continue to bloom as one of NS's foremost raiders and a leader in the Gameplay community.
The Yeet Army Completes its Mission and Disbands After months of laboring to transform every region containing the word "yeet" into a trophy or subsidiary,
The Yeet Army, one of the largest young raider networks and a member-region of Lily's interregional alliance, has announced the conclusion of its intended mission and its official disbandment. The announcement came as a surprise to many when the region's leader
Ballpit, who remains as citizen and government officer of Lily, posted it to the region's Discord server and initiated a mass closure of embassies to signify the end of an era. In a gracious and cordial gesture, the embassy with Lily was maintained as proof of the friendship and camaraderie that existed between the two raider organizations. The Yeet Army will be celebrated and missed.
