Do you ever think about the fact that the opera "Il pomo d'oro" was composed for the wedding of Leopold I and Margaret Theresa, but it was rescheduled for Margaret's birthday.

And that the summary of the opera was the judgment of Paris, and Jupiter gives the golden apple to the empress to solve the confusion between the goddesses.

@peoplcshope said: ❝ I know that you can kill. Now show me that you can obey. ❞  (for Maria) SENTENCE STARTERS | ELDER SCROLLS ONLINE ( DARK BROTHERHOOD )

"...Were I a less mildly-tempered Heroic Spirit, Master, speaking so demandingly would not earn you any favors." Even she, as composed as she was, didn't find the young man's demeanor at all endearing. So brazenly demanding she follow his orders, especially so young as he was... Well, a more prideful Servant likely would've been far less agreeable.

"Though I am your Servant, my existence is an ephemeral one regardless of how I follow your orders. Do keep in mind that it is not I who needs your help, but you who needs mine, in this situation, and let that inform your behavior from now on."

A person from history  🎩

Maria Theresa of Austria (1717-1780) who passed away 242 years ago today.

One of the most powerful monarchs of the 18th century in Europe, Empress Maria Theresa was the only woman to rule the Holy Roman Empire. María Theresa succeeded the throne in 1740, after the death of her weak father, Emperor Charles IV. She almost immediately found herself at war with Frederick II of Prussia, her great rival. Prussia invaded the Silesian territories with the excuse that Maria Theresa could not become sovereign because she was a woman. Although she lost those territories, Maria Teresa was able to keep her crown. Maria Teresa reigned for 40 years. Although she nominally had to share her crown with her husband Francis I, in reality she was the sole true ruler of her empire, which she strengthened politically, economically, and militarily. María Theresa was also a participant in the first global conflict in history: The Seven Years War. Her court full of artists, scientists and philosophers was one of the great examples of the so-called enlightened absolutism.

Un personaje histórico🎩

María Teresa de Austria (1717-1780) que falleció hoy hace 242 años.

Una de las monarcas mas poderosas del siglo XVIII en Europa, la emperatriz María Teresa fue la única mujer que gobernó el Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico. María Teresa adquirió el trono en 1740, tras la muerte de su débil padre, el emperador Carlos IV. Casi inmediatamente tuvo que enfrentarse en guerra con Federico II de Prusia, su gran rival. Prusia invadió los territorios de Silesia con la excusa de que María Teresa no podía convertirse en soberana por ser mujer. Aunque perdió los territorios, María Teresa pudo mantener su corona. María Teresa reinó por 40 años. Aunque nominalmente tuvo que compartir la corona con su esposo Francisco I, en realidad fue la única verdadera gobernante de su imperio, el cual fortaleció política, económica y militarmente. María Teresa también fue participe participe del primer conflicto global de la historia: La Guerra de los siete años. Su corte repleta de artistas, científicos y filósofos fue uno de los grandes ejemplos del llamado despotismo ilustrado.

sorry if this is an insane question, it's something i've been wondering about and you are the dragon age lore understander in my mind: ...is there canonical information about divorces (or annulments) in thedas? like, in dao you can find out that eamon suggested cailan 'put anora aside' but that's very vague about logistics. it's probably just something bioware doesn't care about but it haunts me. if cailan had tried to divorce anora and marry celene to create an orlais-fereldan alliance and the divine hadn't approved could thedas have had its own anglican church situation

[the below answer should be read with the visual of me with a white-knuckled grip of frustration leaving indents on steel]

there is NO lore and it drives me INSANE !!!

david gaider, on a random forum discussion post, said “there is annulment. there is no concept of ‘divorce’”. this along with the discussion of cailan setting anora aside is as far as i know all we have

so ‘annulment but no divorce’ is presumably drawing from andrastianism’s catholic inspirations. which basically means that divorce isn’t a thing but a marriage can be declared “null” if you can come up with a reason it was never valid from the start. to go for the henry viii example, he tried to have his marriage to catherine of aragon annulled on the grounds that she had married his late brother first, and he’d suddenly and conveniently realised this meant their marriage had never been okay. the pope refused, because a) a pope had already given henry and catherine permission to marry despite those circumstances meaning the marriage was literally fine and popes aren’t supposed to take that kind of thing back and b) also as an aside, for separate reasons the pope had had his city sacked and been taken prisoner by catherine’s nephew the holy roman emperor like five minutes ago, and so had reasonable fears for his health if he said yes

(sorry if any of the above historical info is slightly off it’s been a while but that’s pretty much the gist)

i have... absolutely no idea on what grounds you could annul cailan’s marriage to anora. but we really have no data on what the chantry considers grounds. could her supposed infertility be enough? it’s impossible to say. maybe eamon was working on some argument, it’s clear he’s been pushing for this for years

that said, if cailan himself was moving to marry celene, he’d have a much better shot at getting that annulment, if only because what’s the divine going to do, not grant an annulment to the guy the orlesian empress wants to marry? this is where anora not having any useful emperor nephews really lets her down. her father could certainly raise hell in ferelden, but they have zero reach in orlais

(as an aside, all this is something i’ve thought about for one of my absolute favourite dragon age timelines, sebhawke divorce. tell me inquisition wouldn’t be improved by starkhaven desperately trying to get an annulment meanwhile the divine is fucking exploded. you can’t.)

Saint Adelaide 932-999 Feast Day: December 16 Patronage: abuse victims; brides; empresses; exiles; in-law problems; parenthood; parents of large families; princesses; prisoners; second marriages; step-parents; widows

Saint Adelaide, born a princess, was given in an arranged marriage at the age of 16 to Lothair of Italy. He died 3 years later and his successor ordered Adelaide to marry his son. When she refused, he had her imprisoned and seized the throne. She escaped and sought help from King Otto of Germany to regain it. He conquered Italy and they married in 951. Pope John XII crowned them as rulers of the Holy Roman Empire in 962. After Otto’s death Adelaide became estranged from her stepson Otto II, left the court and lived in Burgundy with her brother, but they reconciled before his death and she returned as Regent. One of the most influential women of the 10th century, Adelaide used her position and power to help the poor, evangelize and build and restore monasteries and churches.
