AYREON IV
by the Kharenah of Zurvan, Qaisar-e Sathratiye,
who, by this Imperial Proclamation, gives unto his subjects and retainers, greetings, and unto the gods of Shireroth, undying and unthinking obsequience.


Know that We, Mibaradardam be Khorshid va Mah Minamaz dadanam Zurvan, have in the first place dedicated to Zurvan this Proclamation which by his Kharenah is confirmed for Us and Our heirs forever.


IMPERIAL PROCLAMATION
On a Period of Mourning following the Death of Vilhelm Benkern, Count of Mar Sara


We have received the news that the Lord Vilhelm Benkern, Count of Mar Sara, Arbiter of the Imperial Judex, has died after a period of illness. Lord Benkern, son of Kaiser Yardistanislaus, was arbiter during three periods, 1604–1615, 1624–1627, 1649–1664, and was at the time of his death, the foremost legal scholar in the Imperial Republic.

Lord Benkern was born in 1555 and succeeded to Count of Mara upon his father's death in 1604, when he also replaced his father as arbiter of the Imperial Judex. He is survived by a son, Vilhelm Benkern, a grandson, also named Vilhelm Benkern, and a great grandson, also named Vilhelm Benkern. Lord Vilhelm Benkern's son, Lord Vilhelm Benkern, has succeeded to Count of Mar Sara.

We are indebted to Lord Benkern's services to the Imperial Republic, and We order all Shirerithian flags to fly on half-mast for the period until the commitment of Lord Benkern's remains in accordance with the rites of Mar Sara.

The Imperial Court shall for the duration of that time be in mourning and receive no visitors for that time.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF We have caused the Imperial Seal to be affixed to this Proclamation which We have signed with Our Hand. Given at the Keep this seventh day of the seventh month in the year after the death of Norton one thousand six hundred and sixty-four.
