ROSSHEIM FAMILY PACT AS AGREED BY HIS MAJESTY THE KING OF LEICHENBERG AND HER ROYAL NIFTINESS THE QUEEN OF LICHBROOK AND LEICHENBERG IN THE PRESENCE OF OFFICIAL REPRESENTATIVES OF THE EMPIRE OF GREATER SANGUN

TO ALL AND SINGULAR to whom these Presents shall come, His Majesty Max II, King of Leichenberg, and Her Royal Niftiness Lyssansa, Queen of Lichbrook and Leichenberg, send greeting!

WHEREAS His Majesty and Her Royal Niftiness have long contested the right to succeed His Imperial and Royal Majesty Max, Taishi Emperor of Sangun and King of Leichenberg;

AND WHEREAS this unseemly dispute has both threatened the long tradition of amity existing betwixt the realms of Lichbrook and Leichenberg and jeopardised the unity of the House of Rossheim;

MINDFUL that the inhabitants of the Empire of Greater Sangun have languished without a necrarch since the ascension of His Imperial and Royal Majesty;

LET IT THEREFORE BE KNOWN that we, Max II, King of Leichenberg, and Lyssansa, Queen of Lichbrook and Leichenberg, do hereby undertake to abide by the following articles of agreement:

Article 1
His Majesty the King of Leichenberg hereby enters into a betrothal with Her Imperial and Royal Highness the Princess Octavia, Countess of Highpass.

Article 2
The betrothal shall continue until such time as the Countess of Highpass achieves an age suitable for marriage and consents to proceed.

Article 3
If the marriage has not taken place by the time of the Countess' twenty-first birthday, the betrothal shall end and both parties shall be freed from any obligation to one another.

Article 4
The betrothal may be ended at any time with the consent of both signatories.

Article 5
The King of Leichenberg and the Countess of Highpass shall ascend the Sangunese throne upon their marriage and shall rule in concert thereafter.

Article 6
Her Royal Niftiness the Queen of Lichbrook and Leichenberg undertakes to renounce her claim to the Leichenbergish throne in favour of the Countess of Highpass within twenty-four hours of the celebration of the aforementioned marriage.

Article 7
The County Palatine of Highpass shall remain the exclusive possession of the Countess of Highpass after her marriage. Should the Countess consent to enter the unliving state, the said County Palatine shall become her lichgraviate.

Article 8
These articles of agreement may be altered or cancelled only with the consent of both signatories.

***

Given by us on the Twenty-Sixth Day of November in the Year Two Thousand and Thirteen,

MAX II

LYSSANSA
