THE HOUR OF CELEBRATION APPROACHES, and it is mein honor and privilege to proclaim the coming of age of mein great-granddaughter, Lady ARALINDE LEON VON AUGUSTEN, eldest daughter of Viscount PARZIVAL and Viscountess-consort ANASTASIA of Azor, and grand-heiress to Schwyz. From her earliest years, she has carried herself with the dignity and bearing befitting the House she represents. In every action, she has shown the poise, strength, and discipline that are the mark of our lineage, and it brings me great satisfaction to see her stand now upon the threshold of adulthood.

 

BORN OF NOBLE BLOOD, and later tempered in the resilience found within our lineage, shall she enter into higher society as a shining example of what an accomplished eagle of Schwyz should be. Let it be known that her passage into this new chapter of life shall be first celebrated with a joust in the Alba Tourney Grounds, with a feast to follow within the walls of Castle Fritzbrook, where those noble and worthy shall gather to witness her grace, to honor her achievements, and to commend the promise she carries into the future.

 

MAY THIS OCCASION SERVE as a testament to her growth, her accomplishments, and the bright potential she embodies, as she joins the ranks of those who uphold the values and traditions of our House with strength, dignity, and unwavering purpose.

A soft hum trickled from the young lady of Schwyz as she read over an invitation she had snagged just before they had been sent out - spreading far and wide over the Imperial realm.

 

"Goodness, what shall this favor be comprised of?"

 

A small crinkling befell her cherried-brow, setting the invite aside as she got to work with planning!
