At the same time, he disavowed all title, claim and right to the title King of Ostland and to Eisenwald Castle itself. He proved his identity through various documents brought with him, as well as through DNA testing, and other anthropological means. It was reported that upon his surrendering, he had said that he was tired of living in hiding, and that he wanted to secure an honourable life.
