The King has Retired. Long Live the Queen!

Dear Friends and Enemies of Orbis,

We write to you all today with some important news. Our devoted king, Canbec, has decided to retire. I’m sure this news has not already been circulating all last night and today and will come as a complete and total shock to all.

Whether you love him a lot or only a little, Canbec has been an incredible part of both our alliance and Orbis. He’s served The Knights Radiant with great love and devotion since July 2021, when he joined gov as a High Prince of War and began moving up through the ranks. He’s led the alliance since January 2023 and has done an amazing job. He saw us through five wars, two blocs, and one very successful merger. He helped raise two protectorates to allies. He served on the development team. And, arguably most impressive of all, he achieved what many thought was impossible: convincing TKR to move from Slack to Discord.

Canbec has been amazing leader for the last year and will continue to provide valuable guidance as a Shard. We thank him for everything he has done for TKR. In his place rises our new queen, Adrienne. To her right stands Benfro, our prince. No doubt the new reign will continue to bring glory and prosperity, but the two have big shoes to fill.

We also thank our allies—Grumpy Old Bastards, The Immortals, The Forgotten Realms, and Space Engineers—for supporting us during this transition. And lastly, we thank our members for believing in us and trusting us to serve you. We look forward to seeing what we can accomplish together.

The Knights Radiant
