VA BIRODEO HERZENAV AG EDLERVIK,

AMIDST THE BURGEONING presence of the exuberant youth traversing the city’s streets, the elder citizens find themselves entrusted with the task of nurturing and guiding the upcoming generation through benevolent education and immersive assimilation into the Haeseni societal existence. With a cognizant awareness of this imperative, the court is pleased to herald an occasion tailored for our progeny. As the approaching months draw near, a fashion exposition shall be held to foster such important erudition and communal engagement for the youth.

A LAY OF THE EVENT

IN THE ELOQUENT closure of his seminal treatise, “Haeseni Mythologie” (Or, the Hanso-Raev Pantheon and Folklore of the Hinterlands), Otto the Tarcharman aptly penned:

“For Dules, the union of Hanseti and Raev before its time, was the embodiment of what the contemporary Haeseni man is, for every child of Haense’s bosom is the heir of Dules’ fortune. And in having this lofty inheritance, they must know their history and knowledge of the past, so it may be carried on in proper tradition.” 

 

IT IS WITHIN this resonant proclamation that the forward of this event’s announcement rings ever true. The subject of Haeseni Mythologie is painted within Haense’s history, a treasure deserving of bestowal upon successive generations. Thus, the overarching theme of the forthcoming fashion exposition will be Haeseni Mythologie, a tapestry of lore entrusted to the embrace of the young heirs of our time.

 

YOUNG ONES ARE cordially invited to grace the stage with attire made by their own hands, or through the artistry of another guided by the child’s own creative vision. With formal poise, each young soul shall traverse the aisle bedecked in their chosen couture, to be unveiled before the discerning gaze of a trinity of judges: The Grand Lord (His Excellency, Fabian d’Arkent-Kortrevich), The Lady Chamberlain (Lady Liridona Ingrid Amador), and The Master of the Wardrobe (Lord Murtagh Amador). In a revelatory interlude, the young contenders shall unfurl the meaning of their ensemble’s significance to Haeseni Mythologie, before gracefully retreating to the wings.  

 

THE LAURELS OF victory in this splendid pageant of sartorial opulence shall be bestowed in the sequence of first, second, and third. The third triumphant child shall be adorned not only with the adulation of achievement but also the prospect of a rewarding stipend, amounting to 50 mina. Meanwhile, the second luminary will revel in the dual delight of 50 mina and a commissioned piece of couture from the Master of the Wardrobe: Murtagh Amador. The zenith of this procession shall be occupied by the distinguished first-place victor, who shall also be promised a commissioned piece from the same Amador. Their splendor will additionally be amplified by their granted title of “The Star of Garmund,” -- a useful piece to flaunt at social events in the coming future.

 

“As the Dulonians once said, ‘Bar Maan ovare syr.’ or ‘Only Death is Fair.”

The Lady Catriona Baruch, fairytale-folktale airhead of Haense took one look at the missive and fell upon her butt in her excitement. "Fiona! Fiona! Ah want to dress up!"
