FOREST DISTRICT - The honorable peers of House Seamel today declared that, in light of Jasa Seamel's continual absence from the public eye, Duhnen Seamel is to become Duke of House Seamel and all the territory that the House claims influence over. Majority support was granted to the new Duke by two-thirds of House Seamel's Nobility (polled from those who voted), citing that House Seamel's political weight in the Empire was waning as a result of Jasa Seamel's mysterious vacancy from her previous position.
