IMPERIAL PROCLAMATION: Marriages of the Imperial Mother and Other Lords and Ladies of Our House

With happy surprise, We have received the news of the marriage of Our Imperial Mother to His Imperial Highness the Lord Daniyal al-Osman at the Pleasure Palace of Arg-e Daniyal on the Island of Mirioth.

We regret that We were unable to attend to the ceremony as there was miscommunication in the Keep. We therefore offer Our most heartfelt apologies to Our Imperial Mother and Step-Father for Our absence.

With the new marriage, Our Imperial Mother has found a peaceful and happy way to reenjoin with the House of Ayreon-Kalirion.

We look forward to welcoming Our Imperial Step-Father to the Imperial Court. As the age difference between Us and His Imperial Highness is only four years, We are confident that the two of Us will have much in common.

We understand that several marriages of several Lords and Ladies of Our House were contracted at the same time and the same place. We there offer our congratulations to Lady Isabella Simrani-Kalirion and Carl Taylor-Citron and Augustus Mirkdale, and to Daniyal ibn Daniyal Simrani-Kalirion and Novichoka Vladimorvna, to Aurangzeb al-Osman and Sarah Dravot, to Adam al-Osman and Madani Simrani, to Esmeralda al-Osman and Harry Payne, to Daniyal Anders and Thérèse Marozzi, to Frederik Anders and Sabine Erika Rukovodna, to Royston Anders and Madani Allus-Zhayatar, to Azardokht al-Osman and Kūruš Artashata, Khanzada of Raspur, to Nilufar al-Osman and Timūr al-Osman Taraghay, and to Samira al-Osman and Justin Guadalim, on the occasion of their contractions of marriages. We wish to invite them all to a banquet as soon as Our Regency has ended to celebrate the marriages of Our Kinsmen and Kinswomen. We further them our apologies for Our absence at the ceremony, and hope that they will extend to Us their forgivenesses.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF We have caused the Imperial Seal to be affixed to this Proclamation which We have signed with Our Hand.

Given at the Keep this nineteenth day of the sixth month in the year after the death of Norton one thousand six hundred and fifty-eight.
