Royal Proclaimation
Let all who read these words know the will of the Crown.
Let it be known that on the first day of August, in the 55th year of the Society Ivar, King of Avacal, alongside His most serene Queen Asney, do hereby cede the Gryphon Thrones of Avacal to Their most noble and worthy successors, Crown Prince Vik and Crown Princess A’isha. It is known throughout these lands that when warriors last met to vie for the Crown of Avacal, A’isha did inspire Vik to vanquish all who stood before Him. The Crown is Theirs by right of arms, and by grace of inspiration. This, no one can question.
Further is it proclaimed that King Vik and Queen A’isha swear to serve and protect the Kingdom of Avacal and its populace to the utmost of Their power. They swear to govern these lands and its people in accordance to the laws and customs of Avacal; to let Their laws be tempered by mercy in all judgments; and to set an example of grace and honor for all, so long as They remain King and Queen of Avacal.
When the time comes the Crown and populace will renew oaths and swear fealty and service but until then let all oaths of fealty sworn to the Crown by Champions, Landed Baron and Baroness, Knights, and Officers pass unto King Vik and Queen A’isha.
Finally, in recognition of the completion of their second reign as King and Queen, Ivarr Roriksson the Black and Asney Grimolfrsdottir are hereby raised to the rank of Duke and Duchess, with all the rights and privileges implied therein.
This is the will and word of the Crown. As it is written, now it is so.
