Declaration of Abdication, 20th of the Deep Cold, 1585
Issued and Confirmed by His Excellency, the Archchancellor and acting Lord Regent Leopold of Marna on behalf of his Imperial Majesty Robert II, 20th of the Deep Cold, 1585

TO OUR BELOVED SUBJECTS,

 

Let it be known on this day, the 20th of the Deep Cold, in the Year of Our Lord 1585, that We the Imperial Crown, in the personage of the Holy Orenian Emperor, Robert II, do hereby declare Our abdication from the most eminent throne of the Holy Orenian Empire, effective immediately upon the issuing of this declaration. The succession is hence transmitted, in accordance with the Imperial line of succession, to Our brother the Duke of Corazon and Prince of the Imperium Quintus, and We hence give Him Our blessing to mount the throne of the Holy Orenian Empire.

We direct Our brother to conduct the affairs of state in absolute authority, though full and inviolable union with the laws, estates and governments of the realm. In the name of Our dearly beloved homeland, We call on Our faithful sons of the fatherland to fulfill their sacred duty to the fatherland, to obey the Holy Orenian Emperor in the heavy moment of national trials, and to help Him to guide the Holy Orenian Empire on the road to victory, welfare and glory.

God save Our Orenian State!

"Long live the emperor!" the legionaries would shout, lined up at the square.

"We all have to be there for him," Anna Sofia would say to her father, "He has a rough road ahead." The girl looks over at the blood-covered dress she had been wearing when John died, praying that a similar thing would not happen to sweet Philip.

Mister Edmond Manston ruffles his eyebrows, the bureaucracy clearly in dire-straits without his bureaucratic skill.
