| Thanksday Springrise 25th, 174 AL || Closure of the Lepidopterum Gap || <div align=center><br><br>[[file:Kalgachiaseal.png]]<br><br>'''WHEREAS The Garden of Kalgachia and the [[Kasterburg|Kasterburger Republic]] are agreed that their continued seperation by ungoverned territory is intolerable in the face of their neighbourly relations, AND WHEREAS both nations are in the material position to secure a common frontier in the name of mutual security, prosperity and the general restoration of civilisation to the [[Benacia|Benacian]] continent, AND WHEREAS the [[Kalgachia#The Nezeni|Nezeni]] population of the fallen city of Lepidopterum, final nest of the [[Deep Singers|Broodmother]], would in the long term be greatly emperilled were any Benacian power other than Kalgachia to assert its governance among them, AND WHEREAS that ground between Lepidopterum and the present Kalgachi frontier, although topographically indefensible, presents an ideal venue for the massed relocation of regional [[Tyrannocricetus aliger]] populations into a controlled biomic minefield of the [[Minarboria|Minarborian]] style, thereby providing some relief for the Tee-al afflicted peoples of both Kalgachia and Kasterburg,'''<br><br>
 
'''1.''' THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI by this instrument asserts full and exclusive Kalgachi sovereignty over that portion of ungoverned territory between the present Kalgachi frontier at Gravelbottom and the fallen city of Lepidopterum, resting place of the Broodmother, inclusive of such lands either side of that axis as might present a coherent frontier, in accordance with the Schedule to this Order.

'''e)''' 45 Frontier Patrol Units of the [[Military of Kalgachia#The Prefects' Border Guard Service|Prefects' Border Guard Service]] deployed from quieter portions of the existing Kalgachi frontier at the Prefects' discretion.
 
'''2.''' The abovegiven force is designated '''''Task Group Celestine''''' within the auspices of '''''Operation Broodmother''''', whose command staff shall be led by two KDF Brigadiers and one equivalent officer of the [[Kalgachia#The Prefects|Prefects]], the latter of whom shall serve as staff chair and overall Task Group commander subordinate only to the Council of Perfecti itself. Task Group Celestine is instructed to pursue the following objectives immediately upon arrival:
 
'''a)''' The establishment of a coherent and secure frontier line about the perimeter of the new Kalgachi territory, incorporating upon its western boundary a functional and amiable line of contact with the advancing forces of the Kasterburger Republic and the establishment of such operational liaisons and agreed crossing points as may subsequently be required.


'''b)''' The location and deportation/liquidation of criminal or heretical elements within the secure frontier in line with the requirements of the [[Oktavyan Code]], and the referral of compliant elements to the Prefects for citizenship processing.
'''1.''' THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI by This Order announces and compels into effect the rulings of the Extraordinary Grand Council of 1684, as follows:


'''3.''' Title to all new territory obtained through the execution of this Order is reserved in the first instance to the Lieutenancy of Oktavyan for administrative purposes, without apportionment to the [[Kalgachia#The Church of Kalgachia|Church of Kalgachia]] or any organ of state, until the matter of its final jurisdiction is settled. The command of Task Group Celestine is responsible for the daily administration of the territory until such time as secured portions can be transferred to the oversight of civil authorities.
'''a)''' Upon the matter of the chastisement of the conduct of the Garden in the [[Inner-Benacian Conflict|recent conflict]] by [[Lord Toastypops]], and the atonement therefore:


'''4.''' Due notice of this order and its implications shall be forwarded to the [[Shireroth|Sxiro]]-Kalgachi Military Coordination Council. Task Group Celestine shall make every effort to grant any Shirerithian assets found within its zone of operation safe passage into the ungoverned territory.
'''i.''' That the Chairman of the Council of Perfecti, General Witold Pommerovsky, and diverse other members of that body, tender their resignations and submit to a period of rehabilitation by the Church, their numbers to be replaced immediately.

'''b)''' Upon the matter of the outcome of the recent conflict and the [[Treaty of Gloomburg]] which followed it:


'''Schedule 1''' - map of Kalgachia's territorial claims - 174 ''Anno Libertatis'':<br><br>
'''i.''' That the Garden, in the interests of preserving its citizens and faith from dissolution by the Celestial Archons, mournfully confirms the provisions of the Treaty of Gloomburg, and furthermore acknowledges that it is is clear that the conflict ended by the Treaty represents an encroachment of the influence of the Celestial Archons into the very thoughts of many of those tasked with preserving the Garden from that same influence.

'''1.''' THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI by this instrument ratifies into effect the '''Sterklucht Agreement on Airspace Security''' as given in Schedule 1 of this Order.
 
'''2.''' In fulfilment of the Agreement's first provision, the following will be undertaken:


'''a)''' The [[Kalgachia#The Directorate of Labour and Economic Planning|Directorate of Labour and Economic Planning]] is instructed to commence the production of one hundred (100) units to Filed Specification M168-00795 (Dandelion SAM Unit, Quad-Rail, Truck-Mounted, For Export) as given in Schedule 2 of this Order, including an adequate stock of munitions, and assemble them for export to the Kasterburg Republic.
'''1.''' THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI by This Order announces and compels into effect the rulings of the Extraordinary Grand Council of 226, as follows:


'''b)''' The [[Military of Kalgachia#The Kalgachi Defence Force|Kalgachi Defence Force]] is instructed to muster and make available a cadre of instructors from the Bergburg School of Air Defence, Electronic Warfare and Military Intelligence to accompany the exported units and instruct the Kasterburg ''[[Kasterburg#Military|Volksarmee]]'' on their proper use.
'''a)''' Upon the matter of the congelation of the [[Benacia|Benacian]] continent into [[Stormark|Vanic]]-[[Batavia|Batavian]] and [[Raspur Pact]] poles of influence outlain by Kalgachia, [[Tellia]] and the [[Guttuli Protectorate|Guttuli]], the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:


'''3.''' The DLEP/[[Kalgachia#The Directorate of the Tumultuous Wastes|DTW]] Standing Committee on Foreign Trade is instructed to clear, by year's end 170 AL, all arrears in foreign debt accrued in the year 169 AL due to transit delays arising from the closure of ungoverned airspace on the Poroly coast.
'''i)''' That the Garden will accept the present Benacian geopolitical order as the most practical manifestation of the [[Kalgachia#Foreign Policy|Goltz Doctrine]] available in the circumstances, whilst continuing to oppose the intrusion of Storish or any other off-continent colonial entities in all of their manifestations. A policy of peaceful, if not necessarily affectionate relations toward all Benacian states shall prevail.


+++
'''b)''' Upon the matter of the fall of the [[House of Verion]] in Batavia, the rebalancing of that kingdom's legislature and executive, the resumption of the multinational veto on Kalgachia's off-continent commerce (the ''[[Li Naomiai|Naomiai]] Protocol'') and the mutual hedging of Batavian and [[UGB]] trade routes, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:


'''Schedule 1 - the Sterklucht Agreement on Airspace Security'''
'''i)''' That notions of economic damage arising from the above event have been greatly exaggerated and seemingly confused with those circumstances afflicting the Garden at the turn of this century, when its domestic economy and infrastructure were considerably less developed and more exposed to fluctuations in foreign trade. Those elements of the [[Kalgachia#The Directorate of Labour and Eocnomic Planning|DLEP]] and [[Octavian Import-Export Corporation|affiliated entities]] in a personal position to benefit financially from the promotion of such alarmist scenarios are presently being held to account. The capricious nature of [[Micras|Micran]] geopolitics ensures that the external conditions required to cripple the Kalgachi economy in its present state would need to be applied for considerably longer than the lifetime of the average Benacian regime. The matter is therefore of minimal strategic importance, provided the Garden retains the capability to exploit fluctuations in external events as and where required.


''THE STERKLUCHT AGREEMENT ON AIRSPACE SECURITY''
'''c)''' Upon the matter of the threshold between sustainable military assistance to the Protectorates and strategic haemorrhaging of the hinterland, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:


''The Garden of Kalgachia and the Kasterburg Republic, Having a mutual interest in the secure and efficient administration of sovereign airspace, commit by this Agreement to the following:''
'''i)''' That a standing armed force will be established for the [[Upland Confederation]], around those cadres presently under the command of Ataman Ҳazedinov and his ''Iezauli''.


''1. The Garden of Kalgachia shall provide to the Kasterburg Republic one hundred truck-mounted units of the Dandelion surface-to-air missile system, with the undertaking that the maintenance of said units in working order and their provision with adequate munitions be assured by the Garden of Kalgachia without any levy beyond the means of this agreement.''
'''d)''' Upon the matter of the threshold between the net gain obtained by stockpiling of non-native raw materials and the net drain incurred by their storage and preservation, and upon the hypothecated existence of a causative resonance between the Kalgachi government's indulgence of the Pecuniary Archon and the simultaneous torpor of the Salvators [[Lord Toastypops]] the Jolly and Celestine the Broodmother, and their relation to the amonetarist pronouncements of the Salvator Lyssansa the Blue, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:


''2. The Kasterburg Republic shall allow the overflight of civil aviation assets of the Garden of Kalgachia through the sovereign airspace of the Kasterburg Republic, expressly conditional upon the prior submission of individual flight plans or regular flight timetables by the relevant Kalgachi air operator to the relevant authorities of the Kasterburg Republic and their approval thereby.''
'''i)''' That the Pecuniary Archon, where it can be held to its own transactional pretext, remains capable of being turned toward the objectives of the Garden; the threshold of harm is crossed when it grows beyond its complementary role and begins to displace other, more essential spheres of activity. Foreign trade, while demonstrably useful, has decreased its own relevance through heavy contribution to national commodity stockpiles yet its position amid the priorities of government has been exponentially inflated, often on the pretext of diplomatic value which is nonetheless a benefit of kind rather than degree. Existing trade arrangements through both the Batavian and Gubernatorial routes will therefore be rationalised, regularised, and reduced to a steady state that offsets the depletion of non-native raw material stockpiles without adding to them overall. This in turn will allow the DLEP to stabilise the resource burden incurred by stockpile maintenance. A renewed emphasis will be placed on Kalgachia's economic relationship with the Protectorates.


''3. The Garden of Kalgachia shall provide to the Kasterburg Republic one thousand [[Economy of Kalgachia#Currency|Kalgarrand]] per [[Kalgachia#Calendar|annum Libertatis]] as a fee for the use of Kasterburg airspace.''
'''f)''' Upon the matter of characteristics of the Minarboreal Civilisational Space capable of outlasting the present sovereignty of the Kalgachi state and options for their cultivation to continental relevance in geopolitically inert and unpervertable form, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:


''4. This agreement may be suspended in part or in full by either signatory with written notification.''
'''i)''' That any lasting advancement of Minarboreal modes of thought or existence beyond Kalgachia's frontiers will depend heavily upon a recontextualisation of the undead and [[Deep Singers|Deep Singer]] races - those ''Benefactors'' whose legacy is rejected by every successor nation except Kalgachia - as agents of a temporary intervention by the Ketheric host to compensate for a degenerative surge in the primate tendencies of humanity toward vandalism, rhetorical howling and ritualised humiliation in the period between the first secession of [[Elwynn]] from [[Shireroth]] and the [[shire:Auspicious Occasion|Auspicious Occasion]]. The Benefactors' successors in Kalgachia and its affiliate realms are to be interpreted as transitioning the birthright thus obtained from the biological to the memetic, in recognition of the fact that the Benefactors' intervention is concluding and that the indefinite existence of physical specimens of the Ketheric host in the realm of matter, whilst it remains afflicted by its present archonic taint, would be unsustainable and decohering. To prevent another intervention it is necessary for those of mundane biological origin to take the lead in sustaining the Laws of the Garden and their secular manifestations in heart and mind, in fulfilment of their rightful role as custodians of the thorny hedge of physicality seperating the Garden Ketheric and the Tumultuous Wastes. Only then can Minarboreal Civilisation move beyond its Caverdenian origins of gratuitous, spine-chilling otherness and find beneficient relevance in the lives of ordinary Benacians.


''5. This agreement becomes void upon its formal renunciation by either signatory.''</div>
'''g)''' On the matter of the role of the [[The Lot of a Lichnik/3|unlife]], [[Media of Kalgachia#The Good, The Bad And The Shrubly|life]] and works of one Vascarina Goldcluck in Kalgachi folk belief and their status in [[Ketherism|Ketherist]] theology, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:


''SIGNED FOR THE GARDEN OF KALGACHIA''<br>
'''i)''' That '''Vascarina Goldcluck''', Lichling of Novodolorsk, Sand-Sifter of Bereliggle Bay and Chosen Guide of the ''Radix Salvator'' Minarbor unto the end of His worldly corpor, is henceforth to be considered a '''Salvator of the Garden''', canonical to the scriptures of established Ketherism, for her accompaniment of the Shrub of Shrubs to a telluric energy rhizome in the dying days of his namesake empire, whence His Rustling Countenance was redeemed from the face of this world by paraphysical forces and restored to the Great Garden Beyond. Her liturgical invocation shall be performed by the casting of sand over the heads of the faithful, the shaping of said substance into artistic objects or the release of live crows.
''H. Tallong''<br>
''Emissary of the Garden of Kalgachia to the Kasterburg Republic''<br>
''Winterfall 11th, 169 AL''<br><br>
''SIGNED FOR THE KASTERBURG REPUBLIC''<br>
''Magistrate Reginald de Montfort in the year 1658, fourth year of the Republic''


<div align=center>'''Schedule 2 - the Dandelion SAM Unit for export for Kasterburg'''<br>
'''ii)''' That neither credence nor censure can be granted to claims that the Salvator Vascarina, or her corvine companion Birdy, were miraculously restored to life upon the dematerialisation of the Shrub and continue to walk the land in biological immortality. The belief is to be considered neither canonical nor heretical.

'''2.''' The [[Kalgachia#The Directorate of Education and Outreach|Directorate of Education and Outreach]] is similarly authorised and commanded to broadcast said statement on the hourly news programme of [[Media of Kalgachia#Summit 1|Summit 1 Radio]].
''In the interests of complete historical accuracy and continental harmony in the modern era, the Garden hopes that in recognising the magnitude of the suppression of the Froyalanish, the Kingdom of Amokolia will also recognise the underlying cause of the event; namely the wilful and systematic programme of the House of Ettlingar Freyu - using the Froyalanish race and the captive government of Shireroth as their vectors - to concentrate power in their own hands at the exclusion of all others, to erase the indigenous life of Benacia from memory by the falsification of history and ultimately to disenfranchise, annihilate and supplant [[Benacia]]'s entire ancient tapestry of native societies before a deaf and uncompromising Vanic hegemony.''


'''3.''' The content of said statement shall be as follows:
''The Garden hopes that the Amokolian government will recognise how the Shirerithians' appeals for moderation were ignored, how their processes of legal redress were subverted in the foulest of faith, how the evasive glibness of the regime of King Noah in [[Elwynn]] was little comfort to the [[Mishalan|Mishalanski]] as they were dragged from their homes, and how the people ultimately took to the use of force because all other means of moderating the behaviour of their Froyalanish élite, of assuring some baseline of societal survival lest their their ancestral birthright be torn to pieces, had been denied to them.''


+ + +
''The Garden advises against swallowing the absurd fiction propagated from [[Haraldsborg]], that the Froyalanish were an innocent race who were turned upon by all Benacia for no reason - for the reasons were plentiful, painfully unavoidable and ultimately sown by the Storish elite who, in their vanity and hubris, expected to pervert or wipe out the nations of Benacia without effective opposition. The suppression of the Froyalanish people had its roots in the reckless avarice of their baubled Storish enablers, and if the government of Amokolia truly cares for the plight of the Froyalanish - or indeed any Amokolian - it must take care not to indulge that avarice again.''


''For all the shock tactics and barbarism of the [[Xhusor Liberation Army]], it must not be forgotten that regional seperatism is ultimately a manifestation of a government's failure to provide for the moral and material welfare of a given population - whether by ethnic bigotry, technocratic indifference or sheer incompetence. That the Florian Republic's oversight in this regard has festered long enough to provoke armed uprising can only reflect badly on the government of that Republic, and indicates above all other things an accumulation of metropolitan hubris which has long since exceeded the bounds of sustainability. That the more moderate seperatists of Xhusor have, by announcing an independence referendum, made a noble attempt to divert the frustrations of Xhusor's people into a more peaceful form is to be commended - that the Florian government has chosen to respond by deploying troops to prevent such an initiative effectively signals its refusal to resolve the situation by peaceful means, forcing the people of Xhusor to commit fully to armed conflict as the only means of expressing themselves. One can only assume that this sequence of events has been deliberately set in motion by powerful elements within the Florian deep state, representing whatever passes for a military-industrial complex in that nation and standing to gain immensely in wealth and influence as a result of the Xhusor conflict's continuation. The only other explanation for so openly crushing Xhusor's only hope of peace would be strategic stupiudity of the highest order. Being far removed from events on the ground however, the Garden of Kalgachia remains undecided as to which of these scenarios is applicable in Xhusor's case.''
''At any rate the peoples of Benacia shall never apologise for pursuing, to the fullest extent necessary, the imperatives of individual and collective self-defence which are the foundational instinct of all life in the universe. Benacia, if necessary, would do it all again.''


''The Kingdom of Amokolia, for the present time, remains assured of the Garden of Kalgachia's highest consideration.''

</div>
''Children of the Garden,''


|-
''The greater number of you will be aware that recently, in the town of Slavegate, representatives of the [[Raspur Pact]] met with our Garden's executive, military and diplomatic leadership to bring about a cessation of armed hostilities with the [[Unified Governorates of Benacia]] on the outer frontiers of the [[Upland Confederation]]. The Convention resulting from those negotiations allows the administration of that valiant ally of Shrubdom, the Ataman Ҳazedinov, to retain those territorial holdings obtained with the blood of his brave Laqkozaki and, indeed, the children of our own mountain Garden who were dispatched to the aid of his people.''
| Byeday Summerhigh 17th, 149 AL || Assistance in the Liberation of Mishalan || <div align=center><br><br>[[file:Kalgachiaseal.png]]<br><br>'''WHEREAS events in [[Shireroth]] may soon create a possibility for the return of [[Kalgachia]]'s Mishalanski diaspora to their homeland, AND WHEREAS the original passage of said diaspora to Kalgachia was much afflicted with deadly attacks by mutant fauna turned loose by the collapse of the Empire of [[Minarboria]], requiring a greater degree of protection on their return trip, AND WHEREAS upon return to their homeland, said diaspora will require the means to fully dismantle the oppressive apparatus of the [[Elwynn|Elwynnese]] throne and the Vanic Temple, and to evict the asset strippers of SEKEF and the Froyalanish landlords who have stolen their homes and collective property, AND WHEREAS the containment and rollback of the Froyalanish juggernaut, like the [[Ocia|Ocian]] threat of old, has increased in urgency to become the concern of the entire [[Benacia|Benacian]] continent,'''


'''1.''' THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI hereby authorises the creation of the Konkordskaya Bratva, a league of Mishalanski exiles committed to the recapture and purgation of their homeland from all Froyalanish and Amokolian puppet influences.
''Whilst we mourn those whom the Garden has lost in this just campaign, it is the judgement of none other than [[Lord Toastypops|Our Lord Salvator in Jollity]] that jollity is indeed warranted at its outcome. Jollity, in the first instance, for the plight of the Black Laqi who have been spared the greater part of the [[Benacia Command/Military Operations#Unternehmen Dschingis|archonic wrath]] poured out upon their Red Laqi cousins east of Schlepogora. They who stood in defence of our Shrubly name in [[Minutes of the Dolmen|the days of the Dolmen]], to the ridicule and enmity of their peers, have now yielded the fruit of deliverance from the archonic talon; for the [[Ketherism#The Laws of the Garden|Fifth Law of the Garden]] determined that this was our debt unto them. Glory unto the name of the [[Minarboria#Religion|Shrub]] and his Salvators, then, for the radiance of their example has lit a path through the Tumultuous Wastes and guided us to do what the Garden requires. There shall be cultivation ahead, yea, and all children and friends of Shrubdom shall partake of its fruits.''


'''2.''' The Konkordskaya Bratva is to be led by displaced commissars of the Soviet Mishalanski security forces, trained and equipped with small arms by the [[Military of Kalgachia|Kalgachi Defence Force]].
''Still more righteous of our men and women at arms is the deliverance of the Benefactor Races, the [[Deep Singers]] and [[Kalgachia#The Nezeni|Nezeni]] of [[Lepidopterum]] and Lithead, from proximity to the [[Nationalist & Humanist Party|Nationalist-Humanist]] horde who would slaughter them to the last orphaned infant if only the briefest chance availed itself. Banished for our time is the spectre of aggression, provocation and decoherence of the spirit upon the borders of those lands. It is for the deliverance of the hinterland Benefactors that the liberation of the Upland Confederation is an event beyond the realm of mere military maneouvre - it is a salvational act mandated from the [[Ketherism#Cosmology|Garden Ketheric]] itself, wrought by the faithful Kalgachi who fortify that Garden's periphery in this blasted world and have a shared interest in its defence. Here too does the Fifth Law come into effect, for the debt of all Kalgachia to the Deep Singers is everlasting; their works are of such significance in the righteous life of our nation, in our very genetic composition, that neither the [[Tyrannocricetus aliger|Tee-al]] nor the Crystal Death will ever suffice to part us from the children of the Broodmother. To the end of time, then, we shall stand or fall together - for this is the course on which history has set us.''


'''3.''' Those cavalry bears brought to Kalgachia by Mishalanski refugees will be starvation-trained in the tracking and devouring of persons bearing the combined scent of mead and tumescent genital seepage - the olfactory hallmark of the Froyalanish race - and integrated into the Konkordskaya Bratva with their riders for future operations within Mishalan.
''In the valour and devotion of our armed forces during this campaign, it would be remiss of us to overlook those of the [[Ketherism#The Yehudi Conundrum and its Resolution|Pesakhnik creed]] - the sons of Jacob whose most valiant number comprise the Kossars of our Kalgachi Defence Force - for it is they who were first into the fray when the Black Laqi called for aid. It is they who ventured atop ruined forts to scour the skies for enemy aircraft. It is they who hauled artillery to the forward lines and offered furious reply to the raids of the [[Black Legions]]. It is they who suffered losses the longest. And yet...! What became of the dire predictions of defection and rout? These rootless cosmopolitians, these aristocrats of the human race, these pedestrians of the sea, where did we see the betrayal and reversion to archonic type that was feared of them? It was forgotten by a great many it seems, that their tribe has known such malice in antiquity as can scarcely be imagined; to the plight of our people, and especially the posthuman Benefactor Races, events have proven that the [[Kalgachia#The Siyacho-Ashkenatzi|Yehudim of Bergburg]] have cultivated within themselves a protective affinity. It has been learned in military circles quickly enough; Kossars are being promoted already. For the first time, rogatywka caps rest on the map tables of the General Staff. The First Law of the Garden mandates that all life be allotted the fullest niche it can occupy, and many a hero has returned from the Uplands deserving of a deeper station in life. Consider this when you next meet a serving soldier or a demobilised reservist.''


'''4.''' The Konkordskaya Bratva will remain on standby to return to their homeland as soon as is politically feasible, to assist Shirerithian imperial authorities in the restoration of order to Mishalan's rural and frontier areas, monitoring and if necessary enforcing any legal obligation on the part of the Elwynnese Union which may arise concerning the withdrawal of Elwynnese control in Mishalan and the reversal of its accumulated effects.
''By their valour and determination, the soldiers of Shrubdom have brought the Black Legions to terms. They have secured peace in our time. In the forts and trenches of the Upland Confederation the long humiliation of the Great Replantings, begun with the flight of the Shrub from [[Shirekeep]] and culminated in the [[History of Kalgachia|rout of our forefathers]] to these Octavian mountains, has at long last met its limit and begun to recede. After [[Harvestfall Revolution|revolution]], [[Minarboria#Collapse|collapse]], after hunger and privation, the final trial awaiting Shrubdom was its defence by force of arms against a powerful adversary. Our armed forces have stepped forward to this trial and been found worthy, and all the Garden with them.''
</div>


|-
''Although our children may face this trial again, perhaps of a ferocity that wipes the present victory from memory, we now know that it can be done. And what is more, the [[Unified Governorates of Benacia|Gubernatorials]] know it can be done - the wave of chaos and destruction that precedes them, that has masticated so many other populations of our Benacian continent for easy digestion in the tradition of their [[Shireroth|Shirerithian]] forebears, has failed to break us down. Those accustomed for centuries to the harrying of the disparate and leaderless have found us equipped, informed, prepared, and able to impose greater damage to their strength than is worth paying for the [[Endsieg|vain objectives]] of continental hegemony or the extermination of benign races. And so they have offered peace, not out of charity but out of necessity. And this is all we require of them.''

'''2.''' The Council of Perfecti instructs those forces released from Sansabury to establish standing patrols in the highland regions of Western Novodolor, Northern Whisperwood, Eastern Vollity and Western Highbloom, in such patterns and dispositions and with such reinforcements as the High Command of the Kalgachi Defence Force sees fit, and for its contituent units to be assigned a rota for periodic leave in Kalgachia proper as recognition for the sacrifices exacted during their prolonged and ongoing deployment.


'''3.''' The Council of Perfecti further instructs the High Command of the Kalgachi Defence Force to undertake preliminary reconnaissance, training, marshalling and briefing of its forces for the purposes of enacting the annexation of the holy land of Toastytop, in a manner as sensitive and civil as possible to any remnants of the administration of Lord Toastypops or his army of jolly minions residing therein.
''So I beseech you, in the name of the Shrub and His Salvators, be thankful to our armed multitudes and the Garden that nourished their souls to life. By their gift you may go forth in jollity this day, for the Garden remains!''

The following is a list of the more prominent orders issued by the Council of Perfecti, the supreme executive of the Garden of Kalgachia. It comprises only a fraction of the Perfecti's rulings, the majority of which are issued to specific authorities and in many cases are classified Sub Juniperus. As a result, only orders of national or diplomatic importance are featured on the official roll.

Date Decree Title Text
2.V.1684/Helloday Springhigh 16th, 249 AL Rulings of the Extraordinary Grand Council of 1684

WHEREAS the Extraordinary Grand Council commenced in Anno Nortone 1684 has reached sufficient concord upon the contents of its agenda to dissolve and disperse to its ordinary duties, AND WHEREAS it is the right and duty of every Kalgachi citizen to be appraised of its conclusions,

1. THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI by This Order announces and compels into effect the rulings of the Extraordinary Grand Council of 1684, as follows:

a) Upon the matter of the chastisement of the conduct of the Garden in the recent conflict by Lord Toastypops, and the atonement therefore:

i. That the Chairman of the Council of Perfecti, General Witold Pommerovsky, and diverse other members of that body, tender their resignations and submit to a period of rehabilitation by the Church, their numbers to be replaced immediately.

b) Upon the matter of the outcome of the recent conflict and the Treaty of Gloomburg which followed it:

i. That the Garden, in the interests of preserving its citizens and faith from dissolution by the Celestial Archons, mournfully confirms the provisions of the Treaty of Gloomburg, and furthermore acknowledges that it is is clear that the conflict ended by the Treaty represents an encroachment of the influence of the Celestial Archons into the very thoughts of many of those tasked with preserving the Garden from that same influence.

2. The Extraordinary Grand Council is hereby dissolved. Hortus Manet. Hortus Resurget.

Byeday Harvestrise 30th, 229 AL Administration of Pachadsberg

WHEREAS the Pachadsberg Development Committee has encountered difficulties in replacing its dismissed chairman from the personnel pool of the Directorate of Labour and Economic Planning in the conditions of inquisitorial processes ongoing within the latter organ, AND WHEREAS the Committee has submitted for deep approval the name of an esteemed foreign resident which it deems suitable to assume the post of interim Committee Chairman,

2. For the discharge of his new duties, Mr. Avon-El is granted citizenship of the Garden of Kalgachia and the civil service rank of Warden.

Byeday Harvestrise 30th, 229 AL Anti-Corruption Measures

WHEREAS the Prefects of the Garden have encountered a conspiracy, penetrating to the very deepest strata of the state, to appropriate large portions of the Garden's bounty for purposes flagrantly outwith the core precepts of inwardly-referential state and society which were sown into the primordial loam of our mountain homeland by the Salvators themselves, AND WHEREAS the corrupted power centres responsible for this infraction have been identified, AND WHEREAS the excision of their pestilent presence requires corrective action of the utmost resolve,

Pleaseday Harvestrise 2nd, 227 AL Rulings of the Extraordinary Grand Council of 226

WHEREAS the Extraordinary Grand Council commenced in the Year of Our Shrub Two Hundred And Twenty Six has reached sufficient concord upon the contents of its agenda to dissolve and disperse to its ordinary duties, AND WHEREAS it is the right and duty of every Kalgachi citizen to be appraised of its conclusions,

1. THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI by This Order announces and compels into effect the rulings of the Extraordinary Grand Council of 226, as follows:

a) Upon the matter of the congelation of the Benacian continent into Vanic-Batavian and Raspur Pact poles of influence outlain by Kalgachia, Tellia and the Guttuli, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:

i) That the Garden will accept the present Benacian geopolitical order as the most practical manifestation of the Goltz Doctrine available in the circumstances, whilst continuing to oppose the intrusion of Storish or any other off-continent colonial entities in all of their manifestations. A policy of peaceful, if not necessarily affectionate relations toward all Benacian states shall prevail.

b) Upon the matter of the fall of the House of Verion in Batavia, the rebalancing of that kingdom's legislature and executive, the resumption of the multinational veto on Kalgachia's off-continent commerce (the Naomiai Protocol) and the mutual hedging of Batavian and UGB trade routes, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:

i) That notions of economic damage arising from the above event have been greatly exaggerated and seemingly confused with those circumstances afflicting the Garden at the turn of this century, when its domestic economy and infrastructure were considerably less developed and more exposed to fluctuations in foreign trade. Those elements of the DLEP and affiliated entities in a personal position to benefit financially from the promotion of such alarmist scenarios are presently being held to account. The capricious nature of Micran geopolitics ensures that the external conditions required to cripple the Kalgachi economy in its present state would need to be applied for considerably longer than the lifetime of the average Benacian regime. The matter is therefore of minimal strategic importance, provided the Garden retains the capability to exploit fluctuations in external events as and where required.

c) Upon the matter of the threshold between sustainable military assistance to the Protectorates and strategic haemorrhaging of the hinterland, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:

i) That a standing armed force will be established for the Upland Confederation, around those cadres presently under the command of Ataman Ҳazedinov and his Iezauli.

d) Upon the matter of the threshold between the net gain obtained by stockpiling of non-native raw materials and the net drain incurred by their storage and preservation, and upon the hypothecated existence of a causative resonance between the Kalgachi government's indulgence of the Pecuniary Archon and the simultaneous torpor of the Salvators Lord Toastypops the Jolly and Celestine the Broodmother, and their relation to the amonetarist pronouncements of the Salvator Lyssansa the Blue, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:

i) That the Pecuniary Archon, where it can be held to its own transactional pretext, remains capable of being turned toward the objectives of the Garden; the threshold of harm is crossed when it grows beyond its complementary role and begins to displace other, more essential spheres of activity. Foreign trade, while demonstrably useful, has decreased its own relevance through heavy contribution to national commodity stockpiles yet its position amid the priorities of government has been exponentially inflated, often on the pretext of diplomatic value which is nonetheless a benefit of kind rather than degree. Existing trade arrangements through both the Batavian and Gubernatorial routes will therefore be rationalised, regularised, and reduced to a steady state that offsets the depletion of non-native raw material stockpiles without adding to them overall. This in turn will allow the DLEP to stabilise the resource burden incurred by stockpile maintenance. A renewed emphasis will be placed on Kalgachia's economic relationship with the Protectorates.

f) Upon the matter of characteristics of the Minarboreal Civilisational Space capable of outlasting the present sovereignty of the Kalgachi state and options for their cultivation to continental relevance in geopolitically inert and unpervertable form, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:

i) That any lasting advancement of Minarboreal modes of thought or existence beyond Kalgachia's frontiers will depend heavily upon a recontextualisation of the undead and Deep Singer races - those Benefactors whose legacy is rejected by every successor nation except Kalgachia - as agents of a temporary intervention by the Ketheric host to compensate for a degenerative surge in the primate tendencies of humanity toward vandalism, rhetorical howling and ritualised humiliation in the period between the first secession of Elwynn from Shireroth and the Auspicious Occasion. The Benefactors' successors in Kalgachia and its affiliate realms are to be interpreted as transitioning the birthright thus obtained from the biological to the memetic, in recognition of the fact that the Benefactors' intervention is concluding and that the indefinite existence of physical specimens of the Ketheric host in the realm of matter, whilst it remains afflicted by its present archonic taint, would be unsustainable and decohering. To prevent another intervention it is necessary for those of mundane biological origin to take the lead in sustaining the Laws of the Garden and their secular manifestations in heart and mind, in fulfilment of their rightful role as custodians of the thorny hedge of physicality seperating the Garden Ketheric and the Tumultuous Wastes. Only then can Minarboreal Civilisation move beyond its Caverdenian origins of gratuitous, spine-chilling otherness and find beneficient relevance in the lives of ordinary Benacians.

g) On the matter of the role of the unlife, life and works of one Vascarina Goldcluck in Kalgachi folk belief and their status in Ketherist theology, the Extraordinary Grand Council rules:

i) That Vascarina Goldcluck, Lichling of Novodolorsk, Sand-Sifter of Bereliggle Bay and Chosen Guide of the Radix Salvator Minarbor unto the end of His worldly corpor, is henceforth to be considered a Salvator of the Garden, canonical to the scriptures of established Ketherism, for her accompaniment of the Shrub of Shrubs to a telluric energy rhizome in the dying days of his namesake empire, whence His Rustling Countenance was redeemed from the face of this world by paraphysical forces and restored to the Great Garden Beyond. Her liturgical invocation shall be performed by the casting of sand over the heads of the faithful, the shaping of said substance into artistic objects or the release of live crows.

ii) That neither credence nor censure can be granted to claims that the Salvator Vascarina, or her corvine companion Birdy, were miraculously restored to life upon the dematerialisation of the Shrub and continue to walk the land in biological immortality. The belief is to be considered neither canonical nor heretical.

2. The Extraordinary Grand Council is hereby dissolved. Hortus Manet. Hortus Resurget.

Pleaseday Summerfall 28th, 226 AL Extraordinary Grand Council of 226

WHEREAS various events of the last decade, both within and without the Garden, have borne cumulative implications for its overall navigation through the Tumultuous Wastes and the continuity of the Shrubly birthright, AND WHEREAS the usual technocratic mechanisms of government are inappropriate for addressing such matters,

b) The fall of the House of Verion in Batavia, the rebalancing of that kingdom's legislature and executive, the revival of the multinational veto on Kalgachia's off-continent commerce (the Naomiai Protocol) and the mutual hedging of Batavian and UGB trade routes.

c) The threshold between sustainable military assistance to the Protectorates and strategic haemorrhaging of the hinterland.

d) The threshold between the net gain obtained by stockpiling of non-native raw materials and the net drain incurred by their storage and preservation.

e) The possibility of a causative resonance between the Kalgachi government's indulgence of the Pecuniary Archon and the simultaneous torpor of the Salvators Lord Toastypops the Jolly and Celestine the Broodmother, and its relation to the amonetarist pronouncements of the Salvator Lyssansa the Blue.

f) Characteristics of the Minarboreal Civilisational Space capable of outlasting the present sovereignty of the Kalgachi state and options for their cultivation to continental relevance in geopolitically inert and unpervertable form.

g) The role of the unlife, life and works of one Vascarina Goldcluck in Kalgachi folk belief and their status in Ketherist theology.

h) Such other matters as may conceivably arise in the circumstances.

1. THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI by This Order transfers, to the Directorate of Labour and Economic Planning, sole title to that territory comprising the Eighth Easement of the Parish of Sugarscythe within the March of the City of Jollity, henceforth to be named the Pachadsberg Special Recreation Zone in honour of one Pachad ben Mavet, Nohsi of Ashkenatza, Jollifier of the Minarborian Kossars and noted connoisseur of the ancient Fleshpots of Mazeltov on whose ruins the illuminated wonders of Jollity city now stand.

Thanksday Summerhigh 26th, 223 AL Protectorate Status for the Upland Confederation

WHEREAS the Congress of Džirgas of the Upland Confederation has convened and deliberated upon the present state of safety and stability afforded to that realm by the transformative presence of the Kalgachi Defence Force, evolving as it has from purely defensive needs to matters of humanitarian assistance and rudimentary infrastructure development, AND WHEREAS it is the resolution of the Congress that this state of affairs be sustained indefinitely in a manner which nonetheless preserves the clan structures and autonomy of the Confederation, AND WHEREAS the Congress has directed their ruling Ataman to petition the Council of Perfecti of the Garden to advance the Upland Confederation to the same state of regard enjoyed by Northbloom, Lepidopterum and Lapivril,

1. THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI by This Order extends ultimate and beneficient jurisdiction to the Upland Condeferation as a Protectorate of the Garden of Kalgachia, by special allotment outwith the Oktavyan Code.

3. That portion of the Upland Confederation lying east of the 152nd meridian and north of the 47th parallel is, in respect of its biomically challenging character and administrative burden, transferred by This Order to the administration of the Planting of Lepidopterum for specialised development.

Byeday Summerhigh 22nd, 222 AL Tealsburrow Railway

WHEREAS the present geopolitical and economic situation has rendered it desirable to upgrade the Garden's infrastructural links with the city of Stonetree, presently administered by the Ketek Corporation in accordance with the Slavegate Convention, AND WHEREAS it is incumbent upon the Garden, in accordance with the Second and Fifth Laws, to render unto its trusted trading partners adequate recompense for recent economic policy decisions which have developed not necessarily to the latter's advantage,

4. The Directorate of Tumultuous Wastes is instructed to convey to the Amokolian government, on behalf of the Council of Perfecti, the rescript contained in the Schedule to This Order.

+++

Schedule 1: Rescript to the Amokolian Government

The Garden notes with interest the present attention of the Amokolian government to the historical situation of the Froyalanish people in the years following the Auspicious Occasion in Shireroth.

In the interests of complete historical accuracy and continental harmony in the modern era, the Garden hopes that in recognising the magnitude of the suppression of the Froyalanish, the Kingdom of Amokolia will also recognise the underlying cause of the event; namely the wilful and systematic programme of the House of Ettlingar Freyu - using the Froyalanish race and the captive government of Shireroth as their vectors - to concentrate power in their own hands at the exclusion of all others, to erase the indigenous life of Benacia from memory by the falsification of history and ultimately to disenfranchise, annihilate and supplant Benacia's entire ancient tapestry of native societies before a deaf and uncompromising Vanic hegemony.

The Garden hopes that the Amokolian government will recognise how the Shirerithians' appeals for moderation were ignored, how their processes of legal redress were subverted in the foulest of faith, how the evasive glibness of the regime of King Noah in Elwynn was little comfort to the Mishalanski as they were dragged from their homes, and how the people ultimately took to the use of force because all other means of moderating the behaviour of their Froyalanish élite, of assuring some baseline of societal survival lest their their ancestral birthright be torn to pieces, had been denied to them.

The Garden advises against swallowing the absurd fiction propagated from Haraldsborg, that the Froyalanish were an innocent race who were turned upon by all Benacia for no reason - for the reasons were plentiful, painfully unavoidable and ultimately sown by the Storish elite who, in their vanity and hubris, expected to pervert or wipe out the nations of Benacia without effective opposition. The suppression of the Froyalanish people had its roots in the reckless avarice of their baubled Storish enablers, and if the government of Amokolia truly cares for the plight of the Froyalanish - or indeed any Amokolian - it must take care not to indulge that avarice again.

At any rate the peoples of Benacia shall never apologise for pursuing, to the fullest extent necessary, the imperatives of individual and collective self-defence which are the foundational instinct of all life in the universe. Benacia, if necessary, would do it all again.

The Kingdom of Amokolia, for the present time, remains assured of the Garden of Kalgachia's highest consideration.

Helloday Summerise 20th, 220 AL Northern Border Controls

WHEREAS the regal proclivities of the Amokolian sovereign as they pertain to the manifest policy of that realm are recently reported to include the active enablement and indulgence of alien colonial forces on the Benacian continent, AND WHEREAS such wilful repudiation of the Goltz Doctrine of continental self-determination, the foundational consensus of Benacian diplomacy inscribed with the blood of our Ashkenatzan forebears on Amokolia's very own soil, is a development not necessarily in the interests of the Garden nor the wider symbiotic harmony of the Benacian continent,

1. THE COUNCIL OF PERFECTI instructs the defence and security organs of the Garden of Kalgachia and its Protectorate of Northbloom to implement and maintain a full and immediate closure of the border adjoining their respective jurisdictions to the Kingdom of Amokolia, assisted to the maximum extent practicable by other organs of governance.

2. Kalgachi and Northbloomer authorities are each authorised and instructed to solicit and accept from the other, any and all mutual assistance as may be required in the implementation and maintenance of a functional Amokolian border closure coherent across both jurisdictions.

3. The application of lethal force, without prior warning, to violators of the Amokolian border on Kalgachi/Northbloomer soil is authorised.

4. The Kalgachi delegation to the Military Coordination Council at Stonetree are instructed to initiate discussions with their Raspur Pact counterparts concerning the coordinated implementation of a pan-Benacian containment policy against such common civilisational threats as may hypothetically emerge from the territory of a compromised Amokolian government.

Thanksday Summerise 18th, 220 AL Church Statement upon the Deliverance of the Upland Confederation

WHEREAS the Garden of Kalgachia has, in the Slavegate Convention, obtained an agreement with the Raspur Pact upon the cessation of hostilities in the Upland Confederation and a mutual acknolowdgement of territorial interests in the post-Dolmen space, AND WHEREAS this development has far-reaching and greatly beneficial implications of which all Kalgachia ought to be appraised, AND WHEREAS the valour and sacrifice of the Kalgachi Defence Force, particularly its Kossar regiments, are worthy of the deepest recognition for bringing about such a favourable state of affairs,

1. The COUNCIL OF PERFECTI hereby releases a public statement contained in the Schedule to This Order, from Our Sovereign Brother the Perfectus of the Church of Kalgachia.

2. The Directorate of Education and Outreach is instructed to circulate the statement of Our Sovereign Brother through all news organs of the Kalgachi media.

+++

Schedule 1 - Statement by the Perfectus of the Church of Kalgachia upon the cessation of hostilities in the Upland Condeferation

Children of the Garden,

The greater number of you will be aware that recently, in the town of Slavegate, representatives of the Raspur Pact met with our Garden's executive, military and diplomatic leadership to bring about a cessation of armed hostilities with the Unified Governorates of Benacia on the outer frontiers of the Upland Confederation. The Convention resulting from those negotiations allows the administration of that valiant ally of Shrubdom, the Ataman Ҳazedinov, to retain those territorial holdings obtained with the blood of his brave Laqkozaki and, indeed, the children of our own mountain Garden who were dispatched to the aid of his people.

Whilst we mourn those whom the Garden has lost in this just campaign, it is the judgement of none other than Our Lord Salvator in Jollity that jollity is indeed warranted at its outcome. Jollity, in the first instance, for the plight of the Black Laqi who have been spared the greater part of the archonic wrath poured out upon their Red Laqi cousins east of Schlepogora. They who stood in defence of our Shrubly name in the days of the Dolmen, to the ridicule and enmity of their peers, have now yielded the fruit of deliverance from the archonic talon; for the Fifth Law of the Garden determined that this was our debt unto them. Glory unto the name of the Shrub and his Salvators, then, for the radiance of their example has lit a path through the Tumultuous Wastes and guided us to do what the Garden requires. There shall be cultivation ahead, yea, and all children and friends of Shrubdom shall partake of its fruits.

Still more righteous of our men and women at arms is the deliverance of the Benefactor Races, the Deep Singers and Nezeni of Lepidopterum and Lithead, from proximity to the Nationalist-Humanist horde who would slaughter them to the last orphaned infant if only the briefest chance availed itself. Banished for our time is the spectre of aggression, provocation and decoherence of the spirit upon the borders of those lands. It is for the deliverance of the hinterland Benefactors that the liberation of the Upland Confederation is an event beyond the realm of mere military maneouvre - it is a salvational act mandated from the Garden Ketheric itself, wrought by the faithful Kalgachi who fortify that Garden's periphery in this blasted world and have a shared interest in its defence. Here too does the Fifth Law come into effect, for the debt of all Kalgachia to the Deep Singers is everlasting; their works are of such significance in the righteous life of our nation, in our very genetic composition, that neither the Tee-al nor the Crystal Death will ever suffice to part us from the children of the Broodmother. To the end of time, then, we shall stand or fall together - for this is the course on which history has set us.

In the valour and devotion of our armed forces during this campaign, it would be remiss of us to overlook those of the Pesakhnik creed - the sons of Jacob whose most valiant number comprise the Kossars of our Kalgachi Defence Force - for it is they who were first into the fray when the Black Laqi called for aid. It is they who ventured atop ruined forts to scour the skies for enemy aircraft. It is they who hauled artillery to the forward lines and offered furious reply to the raids of the Black Legions. It is they who suffered losses the longest. And yet...! What became of the dire predictions of defection and rout? These rootless cosmopolitians, these aristocrats of the human race, these pedestrians of the sea, where did we see the betrayal and reversion to archonic type that was feared of them? It was forgotten by a great many it seems, that their tribe has known such malice in antiquity as can scarcely be imagined; to the plight of our people, and especially the posthuman Benefactor Races, events have proven that the Yehudim of Bergburg have cultivated within themselves a protective affinity. It has been learned in military circles quickly enough; Kossars are being promoted already. For the first time, rogatywka caps rest on the map tables of the General Staff. The First Law of the Garden mandates that all life be allotted the fullest niche it can occupy, and many a hero has returned from the Uplands deserving of a deeper station in life. Consider this when you next meet a serving soldier or a demobilised reservist.

By their valour and determination, the soldiers of Shrubdom have brought the Black Legions to terms. They have secured peace in our time. In the forts and trenches of the Upland Confederation the long humiliation of the Great Replantings, begun with the flight of the Shrub from Shirekeep and culminated in the rout of our forefathers to these Octavian mountains, has at long last met its limit and begun to recede. After revolution, collapse, after hunger and privation, the final trial awaiting Shrubdom was its defence by force of arms against a powerful adversary. Our armed forces have stepped forward to this trial and been found worthy, and all the Garden with them.

Although our children may face this trial again, perhaps of a ferocity that wipes the present victory from memory, we now know that it can be done. And what is more, the Gubernatorials know it can be done - the wave of chaos and destruction that precedes them, that has masticated so many other populations of our Benacian continent for easy digestion in the tradition of their Shirerithian forebears, has failed to break us down. Those accustomed for centuries to the harrying of the disparate and leaderless have found us equipped, informed, prepared, and able to impose greater damage to their strength than is worth paying for the vain objectives of continental hegemony or the extermination of benign races. And so they have offered peace, not out of charity but out of necessity. And this is all we require of them.

So I beseech you, in the name of the Shrub and His Salvators, be thankful to our armed multitudes and the Garden that nourished their souls to life. By their gift you may go forth in jollity this day, for the Garden remains!
