[X] Brigid: Depending on how you translate the Brigidian word brèni, Brigid is absolutely lousy with kings; the ruler of even the smallest fishing hamlet is a brèni. Not all kings are equal, though, and ultimately, they all bow to the MacNeary king in Ruadàn. Cycles of gift-giving and tribute bind them in allegiance and fealty, even as the MacNeary now bows to Enbarr.
 
Here's Hoping there's approval voting.

[X] Albinea: In the frozen wastes of Albinea, they have neither king nor lord nor emperor. They do, however, have judges, who study in years-long apprenticeships to recall the traditional law (set down in verse) by heart. Disputes are resolved by councils and assemblies of these judges, with the highest authority being the annual assembly of judges at Beira.

[X] Morfis: To believe the Morfisians, they executed their entire royal house, down to the last bastard descendant, centuries ago, and will never tolerate another to grow there again. Instead, they are governed by a collection of magistrates elected by popular assemblies, paramount among them the two Rectors. However, only members of the patrician families are eligible for election.

Rosmerta's been to Albinea, where she had a foundational religious experience. I think Albinea's councils of judges also dovetail with our previous decisions to celebrate officers and approach an arranged marriage dutifully - Rosmerta respects expertise and tradition, but not necessarily lineage.

I am alright with Albinea winning, which it seems to be doing, so I'll vote for Brigid to give it some healthy competition - can always change the vote later.
 
[X] Almyra: Almyrans have a king, but their provinces are not ruled by hereditary lords. Instead, their nobles pursue honor and advancement by service in the king's army, or in one of his ministries. The sons of the king are appointed to the governorships of the various provinces, and when the time comes for succession, they compete amongst themselves to determine the most worthy.

[X] Sreng: Sreng's clans each have gatherings of elders and assemblies of warriors, but most power lies in the several chiefs, distinguished by their peasant clientele and warrior retinues, earned through glory in combat and gifts of treasure. Those gatherings and assemblies are less governing institutions and more opportunities for the chiefs to mingle, converse, and decide whether or not to collaborate this muster-season.

Good to see this back.

Hmm idk if this was mentiomed preciously (foumd this quest AGES ago) and found out it updated recently. Are there going to be any Three Hopes elements in this? Or is this strictly Three Houses? Shez and Arval are probably in a ditch somewhere...

three hopes lore can generally be assumed to be canon for this. as for shez, well...

it would be unfair for the eagles to have one more member than the other two houses, wouldn't it?

ignore that i forgot to actually close voting at the tally

Oh goody! Everyone's Favorite Lost purple head is joining the fray, hopefully they and Byleth get along.... eventually... hopefully....
Sothis and Arval: Fight! Fight! Fight!
Byleth: Resting Bitch Face TM . "What is wrong with you, you Gremlin.... also who are you again?".
Shez: Eisner..... *Grabs Swords* Fight Me! *BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH INFERNO OST Plays*

I wonder who Shez is going to Join... all three of the Houses are messes. I can see Shez being a GD student...although they enable some of Claude's worst habits... as for the BL...oh boy the house that exemplifies "We need a Therapist, YESTERDAY!"

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck had the Crest of Seiros?

If Three Hopes (a plague upon it) is canon,
