4th of Amber cold, 1619

☪ Issued and confirmed by His Grace the Sultan of the Sultanate of Haria Arlen Kharadeen ☪

 

        With a reign passing from early Vailor to late Axios, and the control of over four cities it has come the time for the people of Haria to see a new leader who ascend to the throne. As of this day, Arlen Kharadeen will have passed the sword of Haria, a peaceful transition that is symbolic between both Sultan and heir. It is hereby declared that rulership of the Sultanate of Haria will fall to the wise and caring Fakhri Kharadeen, firstborn of Arlen and Irsia Kharadeen. May his just reign be guided by the hand of Allah, and present the people of Haria with a fruitful harvest of peace and prosperity!

        A wiry figure steps out onto the steps of the grand mosque, his beard trimmed, and mane groomed. He walks with a cane in one hand and a camel hide scabbard with the golden trim of a sword’s pommel and hilt peaking out. He stood to the right of the Imam Faiz Kharadeen who stood in between him and a young Fakhri Kharadeen. Off to the sides stood the Amir along with the royal family and several Mubarizun guardsmen.

 

        “As-salamu alaykum. For several decades I have held this sword with honor and a sense of duty to my people. Since the founding of the Caliphate, the first Caliph Faiz Kharadeen had taught me the virtues of what makes a man a strong and wise one… My time has passed and as the great Caliph had done in the past, I will be passing over the title of Sultan to my firstborn son, Fakhri. My time here, however, has not yet seen it’s end and I will be there to provide counsel and support where needed. I, Arlen Kharadeen had dedicated my life  to serving Allah  and the nation we have all come to establish. I will continue to serve until He sees befit that my time on this earthly realm is over.”

        Facing the city, the old Qalasheen lifts and extends the sheathed saber with both hands, those boney fingers hooking around and squeezing his heirloom for one last time. Then he shifts to face Faiz, a proud smile strewn across his wrinkled face. He passes the sword to the Imam who then ushers a quiet prayer before presenting it to Fakhri.

-

        Fakhri looks to his elderly grandfather with a small glimmer of pride within his eyes. He kneels before the Imam and carefully places his hands beneath the delicate saber. His fingers wrap around the decorated scabbard. With the royal saber within his hands, he rises steadfastly back upon his feet. He turns towards the gathered crowd at the bottom of the Masjid’s stairwell.

 

        “My fellow countrymen, Harians, travellers from far and wide!

My father and grandfather have seen our lands in turmoil, in dreaded wars, disasters and more. However, we Harians pulled through, we Harians managed to survive, we maintained under their guidance. I have learned from their experiences and I know what will be expected of me. I may be born into this position, however I am a servant to Haria and her people like my father before me and I will uphold this duty till my body fails to do so.. ”   

 

☪ With the second passing of Haria, may Sultan Fakhri Kharadeen be rightfully guided by Allah. ☪

"LONG LIVE HARIA! LONG LIVE THE KHARADEENS! LONG LIVE THE SULTAN FAKHRI! LONG LIVE OUR BELOVED PAST SULTAN ARLEN!" Shouts Khalid Ibn Mahmoud with his twin brother Ashur Ibn Mahmoud raising their swords in the air in respect to the new sultan of Haria

------------------------------

"congratulations My Sultani Emi- My Sultan." Saeed Ibn Malek face glowing with happyness "Allah will help you threw your reign and Inshallah I will help you threw it as well, My sultan." He says to Sultan Fakhri Kharadeen buzzing with excitement to know what his first order will be from the New sultan

[_Sug 2809]

"Haria?" A young man would perk a brow as he hears of the information. "Did it not fall to desolate ruin? I went to trade one day and the city was empty and the streets more barren than the desert outside. Here's hoping this new change in leadership will bode well for the Harians." He would retort before continuing to sharpen a sword with a whetstone. 

 

 

All in all. Best of luck to the new Sultan! #MakeHariaGreatAgain!
