News of the Realm: Imperial organizations change names

The crowning of King Talus Valoria the First and the shaping of an Empire into a Kingdom has also extended into a number of formerly Imperial organizations as well.

The already recently formed Imperial Navy shall be renamed to become the Royal Navy.

The young Imperial Watch shall be renamed to become the Royal Guard (perhaps also hinting that House Guard will be given greater control over the roads and highways of the territory they protect).

The Imperial Tribunal is to be disbanded under the direction of the Sovereign Prince, and merged into the Royal Order of the Crown.

It is believed that the Royal Order will be given the same duties that the Imperial Tribunal previously handled, though in turn giving the Royal Order a greater purpose within the Kingdom, and equally cutting down on bureaucracy.

A Grandmaster of the Royal Order will be appointed to replace the role of Justiciar, which has been vacant since Soravyn Zahir vanished from Fastheld. It is also being hinted that an Adventurer's Guild may be formed to provide auxiliary agents of whom Knight-Errants can enlist the aid.

The Imperial Office of Census and Excise shall become known as the Royal Office of Census and Excise.

The Imperial Office of Penumbral Affairs is to be scrapped entirely - before it even had a chance to operate. It is believe that the Imperial Cult will instead be entrusted with the duties that the Penumbral Affairs Office was intended to handle, and will be given a boost in funding to recruit more Ordinators to the number of one thousand.
