Upper-Hierophant Artemis Kalri Justa- Judean

Artemis Justa Judes was born in the year 1758 AR to Anthon and Maria Justa in the small church village of Bad Hansa,
I ask of you, people of Artesja, do you want this? Do you want to have your money stolen by saggy old preists who probably can't count to three!? NO!? Well then why the hell does this keep happening? Is the core of our sacred cause not the people!? I say we go over to that church and take care of this problem as our ancestors did a long time ago, WHO'S WITH ME!?   -Artemis
 
This revolution a has problem, people keep saying "Down with the state", "Down with right wing", and "Down with the conservatives", I detest this. You rarely hear people talking of going up, upwards towards glory, UPWARDS TOWARDS THE HEAVENS WE ARE DESTINED FOR!
   
As some of you may know, you are all currently rebbeling against the state, you are betraying the country that you swore your life to. You have left your faith and nation behind for power and petty cash, and i ask of you this one thing in return, why? Do you really think that the slimy bastard you call your Colonel will treat you any better than in would? Do you honestly think that you’d receive better pay, lesser service time? No, you wouldn’t, and ill be impressed if you even survive till’ the end of the month, The Fedrian Ass-weasels are gathering near the border, they wait for an opportunity to strike, join me if you want to live. And your children shall speak of you not as cowardly backstabbers, but as valiant heroes who reppeled the scum trying to take our ancestral lands. Now, soldiers of Artesja, will you show your mettle, and join the worthy cause?
       
The Kingdom greives   It is my unfortunate task to inform you that Artemis, King of Artemisia and Upper-hierophant of Geminism, has passed. After an attack by a Fedrian Nationalist, his body will be buried in Swedenhatius.   The Kingdom Remains   There is much to be done   We bear our faith   And it bears us
