The Valley of Pride was commissioned by the Civilian Commissioner of Wintermark in Summer 380YE. The position of Herbalist of the Hearh is a sinecure, requiring minimal responsibility but offering a regular income of herbs. The position is a Wintermark national Imperial title.

Responsibilities

The Herbalist of the Hearth has no particular responsibilities; they simply receive a bounty of herbs from the Valley of Pride in Wood Heath, Hahnmark. If the Valley were to be threatened in any way, it would be the responsibility of the Herbalist to deal with those threats.

Powers

The Herbalist of the Hearth is an Imperial title that grants custodianship of a sinecure.

Bounty of the Herbalist

The Herbalist receives an income of herbs each season: 6 doses of Bladeroot, 5 doses of True Vervain, 4 doses each of Imperial Roseweald and Marrowort, and 2 doses of Cerulean Mazzarine. Bladeroot and True Vervain prosper in the northern hills, but the gardeners struggle to maintain more than a few patches of Cerulean Mazzarine.

Selection

The Master Apothecary is a Wintermark national position appointed by the Senate. Under normal circumstances it will be appointed by unanimous vote of the Wintermark senators.

Because this is a national position, the title can only be held by a citizen of Wintermark.

Removal

The Herbalist of the Hearth has tenure and serves until they die, step down or are revoked.

The title can be revoked by the Wintermark national assembly, the General assembly or the Assembly of Nine.

History

Construction of the Valley of Pride was completed shortly after the 380YE Summer Solstice. The title is due to be elected for the first time at the Autumn Equinox 380YE.
