The Cardinal of Lotharia received the news whilst he returned south from another patrol at Camp Tatiyana. He signed the Lorraine instinctively as he then murmured, “Indeed to GOD we belong. And to HIM we return.” A gentle sigh escaped Ivan’s lips as he climbed atop his steed. His gaze went towards the tree of light still standing before the fort and then to the sky as a somber smile formed upon his lips. “Pious, till the end. Marius, may you be rewarded in the Kingdom of Heaven.”

Upon reading the new missive from the HFSR, little Robert would search endlessly through the public gardens in Nau Valdev to find the next big champion in snail racing. He was determined to WIN.

Ivan despises the unfaithful machinations of the Countess of Entswerp. However, what he despises even more are self-proclaimed "righteous" individuals like Atticus Keen who use the Holy Mother Church and the LORD's name to sow unneeded chaos within Church lands, rather than letting their Holy overlords handle the situation. Both vassals should be culled for their insolence.

THE RESTORATION OF THE CROWN 19th of Godfrey’s Triumph, 136 B.A. “He left his throne with their blessing, and the eldest rose as a new king.” (Gospel, 4:15) ☨ “Trust in your people. For they will trust in the LORD as much as you trust in them.” 𖥞 ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ La Clarària | The Clearing We navigate the tall grains Our vision becomes clear The rice fields are gone And we see what is near The flock follow behind me Their trust smite my fear Whilst the Shepherd before me Patiently guides us here As we reach the clearing We see the fair city we hold dear The tropical air greets us all And we erupt in cheer The Shepard now turns to me His lips curled to a smile ear to ear He speaks in his succinct words Words which we all hear “Now you guide them to the city They trust you to lead young Emir Stand tall as you take my place But remember one thing clear They have chosen you young Prince The ALMIGHTY answered their prayers For HE has witnessed your penance HE has witnessed your tears HE has witnessed your journey The path of redemption to which you adhere Ends at the tip of this crossroad For we have seen you become sincere But remember their trust young prince Look to them as they cheer Keep your promise to the flock For it is them who hold you dear.” ┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛ 𖥞 IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST MERCIFUL, THE MOST BENEVOLENT, WE BEGIN. AUSPICE (3:4-5) 4 See, and there is a bridge of many colors, and marching forth from the Skies are the virtuous dead, and the wicked have been cast down from high places. 5 See, the World is changed, and the promise of Virtue is fulfilled. have reached the end of our current journey. I am honored by the patience our flock has given me amidst this eleven-year period. The Lotharian Regency was never a permanent measure, but one of temporary necessity to ensure the stability of the Kingdom. However, this chapter must come to a close for the realm. For I have seen the strides our people have taken to uplift our nation in redemption. A committee was to be formed by me amidst this regency to elect a new king after the abdication of Alexander II. However, I found it in my best judgment to let the people decide rather than allow a council of a few elites chosen by one man to decipher the direction of where the winds of change must blow. Thus, I waited for the commune to be established. The commune consists of the segnoria which are the entirety of the Crown’s peers, and the senate which is the body of representatives elected by the citizenry of the Kingdom of Balian. Both bodies of the commune were given a chance to choose any living individual amongst the family of Novellen from the line of Alexander II to become the heir to the nation. However, amidst this choice another door was open for the people. Perhaps a new regime of their choosing. All of which were possible to debate or introduce by the very citizens of the commune. But the people remained steadfast to virtue. They refused to let any ambitious individual rise above their station. Rather, their patience and trust was directed to one man. A man who was given a path of redemption to repent for the misdeeds he had committed during his brash younger years before full maturity. That man is John Casimir Baudoin. We have witnessed his journey, from prince to commoner, to warrior. Amidst his journey of penance, he refused to be addressed as royalty. He had spent eleven years in humble service to the nation, to Lotharia, and to Canondom. His efforts garnered him recognition in virtue amongst humanity. He offered his blade against the Xionists. He stood firm against the Unholy Darktide to protect both Canondom and the Holy Mother Church. He did all not for his own glory but for the cause of the ALMIGHTY. We have witnessed his devotion to the Canon Faith. His soul was guided by all back to the light. He would ask for confession after confession, guidance after guidance from me and all pious men of the cloth. Each of his requests all had an underlying theme: “How can I ask the LORD to grant my people his LIGHT?” His questions were answered. His confessions were heard. His requests for guidance were fulfilled. Amidst his path of penance, he chose rather to be motivated by a selfless intuition: to help his people. While we prayed for him, he prayed for us. The sign of his redemption came when I was told His Holiness had given John his blessing to wed Kathryn Virosi. The High Pontiff stated that he wished to reconcile John Casimir as soon as possible. Whilst I was amused, I gave the man my own three tests to assess his sincerity. He had passed each gracefully. After the third test, I gave him my own blessing to marry Kathryn Virosi. But the signs expanded further on the night of the segnoria meeting, when all peers unanimously and voluntarily declared their support for John Casimir. Thus, after the elections for the senate, I called the elected representatives to convene for their first task: elect a new leader to guide the nation. Unanimously and willfully, they all shouted John Casimir’s name. In an unprecedented moment for our nation, the people of Balian have elected their sovereign. Such a case may leave ripples within the realm. Perhaps the restored monarchy may invent a hybrid elective-primogeniture system in the future. But only the LORD knows for certain of what is on the horizon for the nation through the restored Crown’s intuition. Nevertheless, the commune has spoken, and with it the people. Thus, it is with great pride and acknowledgment that I declare the passing of the reigns of Balian to the King-Elect John Casimir. For he has been chosen by the will of the people, and I shall give my ascent to the people’s choice. However, let us remember that it is the Holy Mother Church which shall crown a Canonist Prince. And so, we adhere to this doctrine; For the mandate of heaven is bestowed through the Vicar of GOD. Thus, to adhere to proper spiritual procedure, John Casimir shall be known as King-Elect by name only. He shall not be called a Canonist Prince until he is crowned by the High Pontiff. Yet, I can wholeheartedly and contentedly say that my tenure as regent has ended. I shall now fully uphold my obligations through the Holy Mother Church as the people’s shepherd and shall remain as your Cardinal. For Lotharia must grow, and the flock must still be guided spiritually whilst the reigns of the nation are returned to Novellen d’Atrus. 𖥞 To my flock, I speak these words in truth: I, Cardinal Ivan of Lotharia, having had upheld my duty to protect the Crown of Balian as its regent, now willfully and with pride transfer the duty of the Nation’s sovereignty to John Casimir Baudoin of Novellen d’Atrus of the line of John I ‘The Founder’. 𖥞 EN DÉU CONFIEM, Ivan Cardinal Lotharia

A battle of immense magnitude, it was henceforth engraved within the Cardinal's mind. He had charged his steed alongside the Haeseni youth and soldiers. One of the youths who went by the name of Ivar Colborn sat behind him, ready to fight for the defense of his kingdom. All the youth had fervently insisted on travelling to Camp Tatiyana to protect the northern Haeseni border, for they refused to heed Ivan's objections. Nevertheless, they had charged alongside the Cardinal. Many were injured in the ensuing fight. Both the Cardinal and Holy Ser Theo were ready to sacrifice their life for the faithful of Haense. However, it was Theo who acted before him, ignoring Ivan's objections. Perhaps it was the LORD's plan to prevent Ivan from death. They had won, but at the cost of his dear friend's life. The aftermath was somber as the Cardinal evacuated many of the injured to the clinic. He was met with anger, blame, and many other words from the parents and families of the youth. "You will die alone." Said one in pure contempt and anger upon seeing the state of her brother, the heavily injured Ivar Colborn. Yet, the Cardinal remained silent in regret and guilt at the state of the brave Haeseni soldiers and youth who stepped forward to defend the Kingdom's borders. If his death was to come, he shall welcome it. For all who were close to him return to the LORD's kingdom above in the seven skies one by one. If he was to die alone, then very well. It is part of the ALMIGHTY's plan. If this was the test to his faith, he shall remain resolute in the face of the Unholy Darktide. Before returning back to the south, the Cardinal and Reronda returned to the now erected tree of light beside Camp Tatiyana. It was one last blessing from the LORD for the martyr. He stepped forward, touching the warm bark of the everlight tree. "Da. Save a place for me...camico." A gentle smile tugged at the corner of his lips. . . . "I am growing tired."

The armored Cardinal arrived back to Balian. He was further battle-hardened and his resolve unabating. The victory at the northern Haeseni border was somber. For the battle against the Unholy entourage spearheaded by the Lich was one of immense magnitude. The battle led to the loss of a dear friend of Ivan's. Nevertheless, he persevered, for this was vindication against the necrotic creatures who dared harm his flock only a Saint's day before. As he made his way towards his diocesan office, a Balianese bureaucrat delivered the good news to him, showing him the missive published by the Segnoria. His lips tugged at a small smile as he wiped the dirt from his forehead. Perhaps not all is somber. "Good." He uttered in response, continuing to make his way to his diocesan office, "I have taught them well."

The attack, unprovoked, unexpected, and unholy was etched within the Cardinal's mind. He had managed to escape the radius of the explosion. Yet the noxious fumes had gotten to him. He remained within the clinic of Portoregne, coughing whilst medics attended to him. Lorelei had provided him with sage and honey tea to soothe his throat and lungs. Perhaps he shall recover. Yet, all Ivan could feel was wroth. For the wicked lay their claws upon the faithful. They mock their holy sacraments. ALL of Iblees's Entourage MUST be eradicated. The South WILL be cleansed of the wicked.

12th of Tobias’ Bounty, 2001 facts of the case are as follows, Prior to the incident, the Lotharian Regency published a declaration, stating its intention to refuse to grant, award or dispose of any titles belonging to the Novellen D’Atrus Family. Ivan Cardinal Lotharia, TO DISCUSS THE MATTERS OF BALIAN - THE REGENT'S PROCLAMATION (1993). On the 6th of Godfrey’s Triumph, in the year of our Lord 1999, Mikhail Sarkozic published a missive claiming the titles of the Novellen D’Atrus family, the Ruthern var Balian family, and the D'Arkent family. Mikhail Sarkozic, TO CLAIM OUR TRUE TITLES (1999). In his missive, he disavowed the Kingdom of Balian and urged its people to revolt. Id. Mr. Sarkozic then urged the Holy Mother Church and the Lotharian Regency to grant him the claimed titles. Id. Mr. Sarkozic also used the coat of Arms of the Exhilic Duchy of Adria to publish his missive. He would then sign his name with self-proclaimed princely honorifics and titles. Id. The Lotharian Regency, with affirmation from the Pontifical Auditor of the Supreme Tribunal, placed Mikhail Sarkozic in a state of interdiction because of his breach of the canticle of temperance and desire to incite unrest within Canondom. Ivan Cardinal Lotharia, AVARICE. - TO MIKHAIL SARKOZIC (1999). Mikhail Sarkozic would then subsequently be summoned to trial by the Lotharian Regency with both the Cardinal of Lotharia and the Auditor of the Supreme Pontifical Tribunal overseeing the trial scheduled for the 10th of Sun’s Smile, in the year of our Lord 2000. Alaric var Ruthern, A COURT SUMMONS - MIKHAIL SARKOZIC (1999). Mikhail Sarkozic would reply in a published missive that he does not intend to appear at the trial. Mikhail Sarkozic, COURT REPLY (2000). Furthermore, he would again sign his name with self-proclaimed princely honorifics and titles. Id. The Cardinal of Lotharia replied with a private letter admonishing him of his questioning of ecclesiastical authority. He further warned him of his transgressions before urging him to appear before the regency. The trial commenced as planned. Mr. Sarkozic, however, did not appear before the regency and tribunal. Mikhail Sarkozic was tried in absentia. For the breach of the Canticle of Temperance, circumventing and shopping for penance alternatives, for purposefully and publicly absconding from the proceedings per his recent reply to the summons for trial, we find Mikhail Sarkozic guilty of the aforementioned charges. DOCTRINE It is a well settled doctrine that the four Holy Scrolls: Virtue, Gospel, Spirit and Auspice are foundations of canon morality and its laws. High Pontiff Daniel VI, Rev. by High Pontiff St. James II, CODEX IURIUS CANONICI DANIELUS PONTIFEX - SECOND EDITION (1801). These scrolls are to be interpreted to provide jurisprudence on Canon Law. Thus, they are to be considered the highest authority in Canon jurisprudence. Id. The Scroll of Virtue states, “[f]or I have given to you the pleasures of the world, and they shall comfort you in the theater of virtue. And you shall take them carefully, and shall not become a creature of worldly indulgence as the beasts of the earth.”, (Virtue 3:7-8). This verse, located within the Canticle of Temperance chapter, provides further instructions in its final lines, “[a]nd I am the Lord GOD without peer, and My joys are the holy joys, and My comfort is the virtuous comfort, and all the blessings of the Virtue shall fall before the righteous who do not indulge.”, (Id at 3:10). Verses eight to nine of Virtue admonishes greed. Verse ten affirms this admonishment, instructing the faithful to avoid indulgence. The Book of Joren, in the Scroll of Spirit, provides that, “[t]here can be no laxity in faith for any reason, not war nor peace, not wealth nor poverty.”, (Spirit 2:13). The aforementioned verse in spirit forbids any laxness of faith for worldly possessions. The Vision of Portent, in the Scroll of Auspice, warns against the condemnation of the Canticle of Temperance, “[a]nd before the commoners, the first condemns temperance, and gluttony is exalted.”, (Auspice 1:23). The final verse of Portent describes the consequences of disavowing the canticles, “[t]he world is changed, and there is a period of sin.”, (Id at 1:42). Such strong commandments enumerated above provide a powerful foundation against Avarice, which shall henceforth be considered the most serious transgression against the Canticle of Temperance. On the matters of title retention, the Novellen D’Atrus family were affirmed of their titles under the Pontificate of Tylos III. The titles of the Novellen D’Atrus family were granted to them by High Pontiff Tylos III, who crowned King John I as the King of Balian. All subsequent titles were then affirmed when High Pontiff Pontian IV crowned Alexander I. The titles were then again affirmed when High Pontiff Sixtus V crowned Adrian I. The titles were affirmed again within Aevos when High Pontiff Caius I crowned Sybille I and Alexander II, chronologically. To ensure precedent and the acknowledgement of pontifical authority, the titles remained within the possession of the family. This precedent, by extension, protects the titles of the families of Ruthern var Balian and D'Arkent. DISCUSSION Mikhail Sarkozic’s recent actions provide a prima facie example of pure avarice. The Lotharian regency, under the direction of Cardinal Ivan of Lotharia, has stated its refusal to act as a title bank. The declaration from the regency is, through extension, a form of ecclesiastical authority due to its connection with the Holy Mother Church. Such a declaration against the disposal of titles by the regency is founded within the Canticle of Temperance. As the most devout servants of the LORD, the Holy Mother Church is instructed to faithfully execute the enshrined doctrines provided within all the Holy Scrolls. Furthermore, The Cardinal of Lotharia is considered a senior member of the High Pontiff’s curia. It is the Cardinal’s duty to ensure that the diocese he oversees remains faithful to Canon doctrine. Although the Book of Joren is directed to the line of Joren, it still requires all faithful to adhere to the commandments of the ALMIGHTY, avoiding laxness in faith for the desire of worldly possessions. All faithful are BOUND to follow the Holy Scrolls, regardless of their ancestry. Spirit provides further authority for the canticle of temperance. Mikhail Sarkozic, both being from the line of Joren and being a faithful of Canondom, was required to adhere to the commandments set forth by the ALMIGHTY within the scrolls. The ominous warning stated within Auspice provides for the basic foundation to strongly condemn any form of avarice; For it taints the soul and all morality of the faithful. Mikhail Sarkozic’s soul crossed a sacred line. His soul darkens as Avarice screams within his mind and body, delving further towards the maws of sin. ADJUDICATION To claim materialistic titles with hollow words of affirmation in itself is a breach of the Canticle of Temperance. For the faithful must be content with what they have. Such title claiming taints the soul as the songs of Avarice darken one's heart. The Holy Mother Church and all members of its curia SHALL NOT act as a title bank. The trial before the Lotharian regency was an opportunity for Mikhail Sarkozic to present his case. It is conceded that he was required to repent. However, one can still present their case once summoned for repentance before trial. If their case is strong and founded in good faith, it can positively affect the final decision. Unfortunately, Mikhail Sarkozic refused to appear before the regency. The refusal from Mikhail Sarkozic to appear for trial brings us to the matter of questioning Ecclesiastical authority. Both Cardinal Ivan of Lotharia and Friar Jacque are senior members of the Pontifical Curia. Both are the Pontifical Secretary and Supreme Auditor of the Pontifical Tribunal respectively. To question their authority is to question the authority of the Holy Mother Church and the Vicar of GOD, the High Pontiff; For they are members of his curia. Nevertheless, a shepherd must guide the flock whilst firm and just. Lady Kasandra Sarkozic of Aldersburg was given the opportunity to testify for her family and kin. She was considered a witness substituting the appearance of the good Markus Sarkozic, the Count Emeritus of Aldersburg and an elder kin of Mikhail Sarkozic. Her testimony provided us with a holistic approach to our subsequent decision against Mikhail Sarkozic. The prosecution appointed within the Kingdom of Balian provided their own arguments and testimony for the matters of treason against Balian and the incitement of unrest. The prosecution’s testimony has also been taken into account for the subsequent decision. Thus we hold the following: Mikhail Sarkozic is now observed in a STATE OF EXCOMMUNICATION. The flock must keep in mind that excommunication is not a declaration by the Holy Mother Church, but rather an observation for when one commits a high transgression. Nevertheless, opportunities for penance are still provided during this state. Mikhail Sarkozic is to forgo all titles he claims, as punishment for his bad-faith attempt to incite unrest, whilst his soul was tainted by the rotten touch of Avarice. All siblings of Mikhail Sarkozic shall be under the guardianship of Kasandra Sarkozic of Aldersburg and her family. For the current Sarkozics of Aldersburg have proven to be a faithful tribe within Canondom. Mikhail Sarkozic shall take up monastic vows and lifestyle in penance for his crimes against Faith. He shall not claim any further titles. If all requirements are fulfilled, Mikhail Sarkozic will be absolved of his penance, and he shall no longer be considered an Excommunicant. To adhere to this decision, all Canonist princes are REQUIRED to apprehend Mikhail Sarkozic and extradite him to the Archdiocese of Lotharia if he has found refuge in their realms. All Holy Orders sanctioned by the Holy Mother Church are to locate and apprehend Mikhail Sarkozic to deliver him before the Lotharian Regency. Furthermore, let it be known that If a Canonist nation willingly shelters Mikhail Sarkozic despite knowing his state of excommunication, they shall be found guilty of harbouring, under the Crimes against the Unity of the Church Stated within § 6 of the CODEX IURIUS CANONICI DANIELUS PONTIFEX - SECOND EDITION: §6. A person who aids or gives shelter to an excommunicant has committed the crime of harbouring. (CODEX IURIUS CANONICI DANIELUS PONTIFEX - SECOND EDITION Rev. on 1801). Any Canonist Prince or Holy Order which apprehends Mikhail Sarkozic shall read the penance required of him in this judicial decree. If he refuses to adhere to the penance in any way, shape, or form, he shall be declared Anathema and executed swiftly; for by then he would have forsaken the LORD. Such is affirmed under the watchful gaze of the ALMIGHTY. EN DÉU CONFIEM, Ivan Cardinal Lotharia Averred by: Fr. Jacques-Baptiste Auclair, Auditor of the Supreme Pontifical Tribunal

Love you Reece! Make sure to keep in touch at least broski and I know you’ll succeed in life! ❤️

Robert, who had been taking a nap within his and his twin brother’s room, was awoken by the excited shouts of his eldest brother. “Hmm?” He murmured with a gentle yawn. However, realization soon dawned upon him at his brother’s elated shouts for their father. “Papej? He is here?!” The young Ludovar quickly jumped down from his bed, not caring for the cold surface of the stone floor his bare feet pressed upon as he then quickly opened the door of the room before bolting towards the court yard. “PAPEJ!” The young Ludovar called ever the more loudly as he reached the courtyard, running as fast as he could to greet his father. “Ea have so many things to tell vy!” Oh if only Robert knew that in his excitement for the return of his father, the young boy had forgotten to wear any shoes.

"NOT THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF VITAMIN C! HOW COULD THEY DO THIS?!" Lamented the five-year-old Robert Audemar Ludovar who spent three saint's hours chasing after them before getting lost in an oasis.

[!]A letter would arrive to the abode of Mikhail Sarkozic. Mikhail, You were summoned by me, the Cardinal. A member of the Senior authority of the Holy Mother Church as Pontifical Secretary within the curia. My good friend and brother in the curia, Friar Jacques-Baptiste Auclair who is the Auditor of the Supreme Pontifical Tribunal will be there to observe your trial regarding your criminally saulicious Avarice. Now cease your political lawyering and penance shopping. Appear within seven Saint's Days sharp in the Saints Evening. Do not keep us waiting. Blessed Regards, Ivan Cardinal Lotharia

TO MIKHAIL SARKOZIC 13th of Godfrey’s Triumph, 1999 “And you shall take them carefully, and shall not become a creature of worldly indulgence as the beasts of the earth.” (Virtue, 3:8) ☨ “Come to your senses little crow.” ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ Oh Avarícia Oh Avarice How tempting you are Your scented fruits dangle from its branches Oh Avarice How clever you are Your leaves are disguised as sassafras Oh Avarice You have made me a fool Your fruits are rotten Your leaves are poisonous Oh Avarice You have blinded me With empty titles And hollow words But Avarice I thank you For I crave attention In this miserable life My Avarice All shall pay attention to me For I shall be crowned ‘The Royal Fool’ ┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛ 𖥞 IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST OMNIPOTENT, THE ALL-POWERFUL, WE BEGIN. VIRTUE (3:1-10) 1 Lo and attend, for I am the Lord GOD, and I am in the foremost part of heaven. 2 Though the spring flower withers and the fruit of the tree falls to the ground, My Word lasts into the eve of the world, and the fruit of virtue cannot rot. 3 I am the Lord GOD without peer. 4 I grew the first grapes of the vineyard, and gave unto Horen the first wife. 5 And as I made for you the worldly pleasures, so too have I made the pleasures of the spirit, and the love of the husband and wife. 6 And I have given unto you the wine of sacrament, and the wine of merriment, and I have promised you the world and the Skies. 7 For I have given to you the pleasures of the world, and they shall comfort you in the theater of virtue. 8 And you shall take them carefully, and shall not become a creature of worldly indulgence as the beasts of the earth. 9 So I am the Most High, and in pursuit of My Virtue, I bid my faithful this: You shall not lie with your kin, nor those of other tribes, and none shall lie together but in holy union. 10 And I am the Lord GOD without peer, and My joys are the holy joys, and My comfort is the virtuous comfort, and all the blessings of the Virtue shall fall before the righteous who do not indulge. SPIRIT (2:11-14) 11 So I find that you are strict in your arms, but lax in your prayers. But to pray is to gird the spirit. 12 The hand of GOD is the greatest weapon to bear, and His word is the paramount strategy. 13 There can be no laxity in faith for any reason, not war nor peace, not wealth nor poverty. 14 The Lord lasts through all adversities, for He is their source and their remedy—without Him, they are uncured. Mikhail Sarkozic. I shall not indulge further in your sins in great length. Yet your sinful foolishness knows no bounds. Claiming titles hold no weight when you have no land nor any men. Hollow words do no justice, yet the greed of your forefathers weighs you down. To lawyer about titles is one thing, but to hold on to them for the sake of power only taints your soul. No, your crimes are not that you claim them, but you desire them. Avarice tempts you like the sweetest of fruits. But her rewards are rotten within. I have stated, time and time again. The Lotharian Regency shall not practice the disposal of titles. The Holy Mother Church, the most devout servants of the LORD, shall not act as a title bank. The titles of Novellen D’Atrus, D'Arkent, and Ruthern shall remain the same as long as this regency remains in effect. Yet, you do not listen. You merely nod, with your right fingers tied behind your back with your left hand to your chest. Your ears are covered with the songs of greed, beckoning you to stray from the straight path. Your soul has crossed the line. For your breach of the sacred canticle of temperance, for the crimes of treason against the Kingdom of Balian, for refusing to heed to the doctrine set forth since this regency, You shall henceforth be In A STATE OF INTERDICTION. Make no mistake however, for you are given a chance at repentance before GOD ALMIGHTY. From henceforth, all canonist princes, and all soldiers of the LORD’S Holy Orders must adhere to this epistle. They shall locate your whereabouts and bring you before the Lotharian Regency for a chance at repentance in trial. If you refuse, then you have truly fallen from grace. Let it be so, under the watchful gaze of the ALMIGHTY. EN DÉU CONFIEM, Ivan Cardinal Lotharia Averred by: Fr. Jacques-Baptiste Auclair, Auditor of the Supreme Pontifical Tribunal
