Ansteorrans,

We are overwhelmed with joy and gratitude at the opportunity to be the next heirs to the Stellar Throne. This honor is humbling beyond words, and we accept it with full hearts, clear eyes, and a deep sense of responsibility.

This victory does not belong to us alone. It belongs to every fighter who tested us, every voice that offered counsel, every hand that steadied us, and every friend who believed—sometimes more fiercely than we did ourselves. You have shaped us, sharpened us, and carried us to this moment.

We swear to serve with courage, fairness, and love for this kingdom and its people. May our tenure be marked by listening before speaking, empathy before pride, and service above all else. We look forward to walking this path with you and to honoring the trust you have placed in us.

In love and service to Ansteorra,
Prince John and Princess Vittoria

From the Prince and Princess of Ansteorra
To the beloved populace of Ansteorra,

We take up the Coronet with gratitude, humility, and great joy, and we thank you for the trust you have placed in us. This Kingdom has shaped us through its people through courage shown upon the field, beauty wrought by skilled hands, wisdom shared in teaching, and service freely given.

Ansteorra is strong because its people care deeply, strive boldly, and lift one another higher. It is our earnest hope that all feel welcomed, valued, and inspired to pursue their passions, whether martial, artistic, scholarly, or service-driven. Walk with us in this time of shared purpose. Together, let us honor our traditions, celebrate one another’s achievements, and continue to build a Kingdom worthy of its people.

In service to Crown and Kingdom,
John Drake and Vittoria Maggiore
Prince and Princess of Ansteorra

April 2026 Black Star

Unto the beloved Populace of the Kingdom of Ansteorra, From John and Vittoria, Prince and Princess:

Greetings and our warmest regards.

As the season turns and the roads grow busy with banners and armor, our thoughts turn with great anticipation toward Gulf Wars. The gathering of so many of our people - fighters, artisans, teachers, and dreamers alike - is a reminder of the strength and beauty of this Kingdom we love. We look forward to standing beside you on the field and in the halls, celebrating the skill, fellowship, and joy that make Ansteorra shine so brightly among the Known World.

Even as we prepare for the labors and revels of Gulf Wars, our hearts also turn toward April, when we will take up the responsibilities of the Stellar Throne. The weeks ahead promise both great celebration and great work, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to serve the Kingdom in the fullness of that role.

In the weeks ahead, we hope to see many of you beneath the bright sun of war and in the courts and camps that follow. Know that we are eager to listen, to learn, and to work alongside you as we prepare for the reign to come.

Until we meet again upon the field or road, we remain

Yours in service to the Dream,
John and Vittoria
Prince and Princess of Ansteorra
