[Axelu 4333]

A DEBUTANTE

in

SELM

1775

The Honourable Eleanor Victoria (L) and Theresa Polyxena (R), c. 1774 

 

---

 

For the Ducal Household in Selm, the year of 1775 is fabled to be one of grand revelry, celebration, and good-tidings. Upon its arrival, sixteen Saint’s years will have passed since the birth of the House of d’Arkent’s eldest sire of its newest generation, Miss Eleanor Victoria ( @venclair ), succeeded by her siblings, Miss Theresa Polyxena ( @marinaemily ) and Mister Alexander-Lucien ( @Arundlt ), a year later. In a young lady’s life, the arrival of womanhood - the next epoch in the ever dignified tapestry of her story - is pivotal and thus, she should be surrounded by the entirety of her family and friends.

 

It is with great merriment that we invite you to a debutante Ball in honor of the Captain and his daughters, whom he and his beloved wife, the Princess Tatiana of Bihar, have lovingly monikered their little flower and dove respectively. 

 

 

TIMETABLE

1. Address - The honored maidens’ mother and father, before the entirety of the assembled guests, will graciously address and thank those in attendance and concoct a speech in regards to their growing daughters. They will be accompanied by Joseph de Selm, the latter’s son.

2. Tourney - In the spirit of merry jubilation, able-bodied men and women of the Empire are invited to test their prowess among their compatriots with a monetary risk involved.

3. Waltz - To conclude, attendees will enter the afamed Mirror Hall within the Selmite Estate, renown for its immaculately polished, nearly crystalline, floors and highly built walls and join loved ones in the company of Imperial musicians and hor d'oeuvres.

The Secretary of the Interior weeps as he didn’t receive an invitation.

Eleanor Victoria d’Arkent smiled lavishly, a twinkle of gaiety in her eyes as she read through the missive with fervor. Spinning in thrill, she’d hold it up while plopping to her bed – trailing her fingers against the parchment while her smile broadened.

Much to the Secretary of the Interior’s presumed relief, the party would be open to all Orenian compatriots of the d’Arkent household!
