A Feast for Generations, 1729

(Saturday: August 17th - 4:30 EST)

 

The waking morning had proven to be of ilk to the renown of Milena Ekaterina, since her union. She would often make rounds around the palace, greeting passerbys. Yet, in the days since the beginning of the seed, the suggestion of a protruding stomach had began to betray the young queen's natural refinement of posture, as she was brought to a slouching manner in an attempt to breathe with lesser injury and theatrics alike. This brandishing of a more eased demeanor was most noticeable to those engaged in the daily activities of Her Majesty's rapidity of life, whom instantly regarded the apparent pregnancy with excitement and mirth; Eventually, word would spread amongst the plethora of courtiers and servantry alike, before an official statement could be released. During the seed’s peak, whence the sun assumed its place above Reza’s beauteous confines, fanfare would emanate from Robert’s Square, and a gawky herald not yet in his adulthood would be posted atop the wooden stands -- ready to declare the paramount news.

To the citizenry of Oren, 

                                                  

It is with the greatest jubilation that the Haeseni crown does wish to formally announce the pregnancy of HER MAJESTY, the Queen, and an invitation to join us in celebration of THEIR MAJESTIES’ firstborn atheling, and the union of the exalted bloodline of Carrion, uniting crow and crow alike.

 

1.  Invitees are to convene in the Basilica where a christening ceremony is to be held.
2. Guests will be ushered into the Prikaz, and its respective throne room, where they shall be expected to bestow a gift upon the esteemed bairn.
3. A feast shall later be served, succeeding the ceremonies, where those in attendance may indulge in Haeseni cuisine amongst the Royal Court.

 

GOD save the August House of Barbanov and their illustrious crown.

Signed, 

Her Royal Majesty, Milena of House Barbanov-Carrion, Queen-Consort of Hanseti-Ruska and its pertaining realms.
