A Release from Vassalage

Issued by  Rickard Staunton, 1762

 

It is with a heavy heart that on this day, I pen this letter. The House of Palaiologos has served Courland faithfully for many years, but has now chosen to serve elsewhere. It is then that I, Rickard of the House of Staunton, hereby release the House of Palaiologos and its head, Michael Palaigiologos from the oath of vassalage they swore to my late brother, Tobias Staunton. We as well allow them to retain their historic titles, and will make no claim to them. May the House of Palaiologos prosper wherever the winds shall bring them.
