ROYAL DECREE (6605)

GOLDSHIREAN ANTHEM


We, King Ryker Everstone of Goldshire, seeing that:
  • Our Kingdom is lacking in an song for our citizens to rally behind.
Hereby make known that the Goldshirean anthem will have the following lyrics and be sung to Kossuth induló:
All rise for Goldshire, then sit down have a drink and make pretty things;
Glory Goldshire, you're the prettiest of all;
We have been at our best, we have been at our worst, we are bound to Your soul, and for that we wish to give You praise;
From Elwynn to the straight, Your children have found bounty in Your lands;
Your gold gave us wealth, and your beauty brings about great pretties and things;
(Repeat once)

To you, we all wish to, give you life and to keep you great and strong;
Gold-shire, Oh Gold-shire, protect it everlong;
From the river to the sea, give your life to the county, never forget what you are, you are Goldshirean.
(Repeat once then let song finish to allow the singers to catch their breath)

IN WITNESS WHEREOF We have caused the Royal Seal to be affixed to this Decree which We have signed with Our Hand. Given this six-thousand-six hundred and fifth year at the office of the King.

Far be it for avowed expatriates to stand in the way of fresh development, but the implication of a dearth of melodic content in Goldshire has raised some faraway eyebrows - Goldshire did have an anthem under the old Codex (Art. III.III.II) derived from a Wintersong-era folk song - not to mention such patriotic broadsides as Stand and Fight, Ye Sons of Goldshire.

Renew the present by all means, but surely it would be wise not to deny the past for the mere sake of glorifying the current order. Such incaution brought the previous King of Elwynn to quite the downfall, after all.

Pray continue.

Ah. It appears my forum searching skills aren't what they once were. For this service you shall have 100 vanic prisoners sent you your mountains. Do with them as you do.
This decree is made void. The old Anthem will be added to the Codex.

One would hope "All Rise For Goldshire" is retained in some capacity. It is a pretty song.

Many thanks for the shipment of contractually-obliged Froyalanish labourers - it would appear Goldshire's incorporation of Wintergleamish territory is yielding fruit. My representation to my superiors for the transaction will naturally include a ten percent writeoff for wastage in transit, with any individuals surviving to fall short of this threshold earmarked for Malarboria's bonded labour markets where their sale, with any luck, will finally eliminate the overdraft on my expenses ledger. The generosity of Goldshire's royal court shall, as propriety demands, be remembered.
