Salome, through the intercessions of Divine Providence, Kaiseress of Shireroth,

announcing for the sake of all Shireroth that,

There is no greater love than for one's own kin. Even when trust is extinguished and laws are upheld, love and mercy must flow like an abundant oil, to anoint and protect those who are innocent of violating the law but had been marked as a result of the enforcement of the law. In keeping with that love,

The following has been offered as a sign of Our mercy:

Our nephews, Ichirō Ayreon-Kalirion of Waffel-Paine, Jirō Ayreon-Kalirion of Waffel-Paine, and our niece, Enhei Ayreon-Kalirion of Waffel-Paine, are recognized as Princes and Princess of Shireroth.

The descendants of Our brother, Kir Azariah Vidar Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed al-Osman bin Sathrati of Waffel-Paine, Prince of Shireroth, shall be included in the Order of Succession to the Kaisership. Due to their illegitimacy, their placement in the Order of Succession shall be ever-below that of the legitimate children of Our brother, Rubin Leonid Orientalis Ayreon-Kalirion ibn al-Majeed al-Osman bin Sathrati of Waffel-Paine, in whom the future of Our house has been assured.

Endowments shall be granted and established in the name of each, for the protection and nurturing of all children who have suffered as a consequence of Our justice being done upon their parents.

Given at Shirekeep on the Fifth day of the Twelfth month of the Year of Our Norton Sixteen-Hundred Ninety-Eight,

SALOME
