Chapter 223 — Summer Ball of Sought Dances.
An unseen entrance after centuries was done.
The silent gazes appreciating the unique occurrence bowed aghast at the unknown custom of the Monarch escorting the chosen by Fenrir, as behind their steps his Wife and Heir to the Throne followed.
People held their gasps at the scene, surprised by how stunning Calla’s Confidant was.
The protocol was followed and introductions were made by the triumphant Emperor who left the Ninth’s presentation for the last.
"Now... Before our young nobles engage in their delightful ceremony... You may all be eager to hear this lovely Lady’s name and Title."
Smirking at the expectant audience The Emperor Commenced.
"... <<Our Empire’s Royal Family has arrived>>... Is what I requested for today’s announcement of Our Presence... The reason is as you see. A lovely Lady, different to my Graceful Empress walked by my side. And it is only respectful for our blood’s ancestors for I, their current Head of their Lineage, to introduce this Lady to the Empire."
Offering his hand to Marianne, Francois invited the child to give a step and stand next to him.
"People of our Reign... I have the delight of introducing to you, Our household deity’s Chosen One: Lady Marianne Elise Sylfinnier, The Ninth Calla’s Confidant, Pristina Pars... Whose name shall be known by many in the Frotschter Empire... as centuries have passed in her wait... Rejoice! Yet behold... For her official day of celebration shall be done in the clearest day of Summer, where our people’s fruitful Festival is to commence and where the skyes shall be devoid of clouds for our Divine in Izeneya to join the Festivity!"
Glances of expectation under excited murmurs travelled through the grandiose Ball Room, which Hall was the biggest of all in the Royal Palace.
The buzz of the nobles was energetic at the entertaining news, but their noise was needed to cease as the Emperor wished.
"Aware I am... That anticipation is a must... Yet it is to be saved for the customary time."
