[RP]Coronation of His Imperial Majesty Ludwig von Frayner I.

The imperial chancellor raised her voice as well to join the credo, the words she knew by heart. But something seemed to happen during the choir of the attending believers.
She tried to see what was going on, her eyes wandered over the heads of the fully filled church. What was it? It was some sort of sound that was not supposed to be a voice within this credo. But she was not able to determine exactly where it came from. Yelling, yes someone was yelling. How could someone dare to yell within such a ceremony. She shook her head, maybe the guards would react as they were supposed to, while she continued to sing the credo with the others.

The princess had never seen so many people together, and the strength that could generate mass impressed her.
She was even more disturbed when her voice is mixed with that of others, Creed fully took possession of the cathedral in a beautifully scary unit.

Credo in Deum,
Altissimum Omnipotentem,
Creatorem caeli et terrae,
Inferos et paradisi,
Ultima hora animae judicem nostrae

Et in Aristotelem, prophetam,
Nicomaqui Phaetique filium,
Missum ut sapientiam et universi
Divas leges errantibus hominibus erudiret

Credo etiam in Christum,
Natum ex Maria et Ioseph,
Vitam dedit ut nobis paradisi viam monstraret
Sic, postquam sub Pontio passus est
Propter salutem
Nostram martyr perivit
Consecutus est Solem
Ubi Aristoteles ad Altissimi dexteram eum expectabat

Credo in Divinam Actionem,
Sanctam Ecclesiam aristotelicianam, romanam, unam et indivisibilem
Sanctorum communionem,
Peccatorum remissionem,
Carnis resurrectionem
Vitam aeternam.

Jamais la princesse n'avait vu autant de monde réuni, et la force que la masse pouvait dégager l'impressionnait.
Elle fut d'autant plus troublée lorsque, sa voix s'étant mêlée à celle des autres, le Credo prit entièrement possession de la cathédrale en une unité magnifiquement effrayante.

It was a long way from Fribourg to Strasbourg. Marcvs fought there on the emperors side at the battle between the damned Fatum group and the SRING. Many dangerous situations he passed. Tavernes for example, cute maids baulked his travel. They sloshed, seduced and robbed him. He continued his travel mostly drunken as today. Finally, he arrived Strasbourg cathedral.He was obviously wrecked, drunk and tried to enter the cathedral carefully. Of course he stumbled with full of racket into the cathedral. He recognized scornful looks at him and tried to apologise.Wohoo, sorry mates! I'm late. I was detained by a few enemies. The war in Switzerland you know? Don't feel disturb, it's only me. In crawling motions he was searching for place to seat. Marcvs mumbled something about wanting ... and said: Things happend. What goes around, comes around. He looked at the altar and saw his Emperor. Yo-ho! Hail Emperor! May you do well! Don't be disturb, go ahead mate.
Finally, he reached a free seat and belched with noise.He guffawed and was all of smiles Indeed, onions and beer repeats on me.
Ultimately, he calmed down and started to follow stressfully the celebrations of the coronation.

The last notes of choirs went to faint in the vaults of the Cathedral, making way for the whispers of the crowd, for some coughs and for the rustle of the rich clothes of the guests, which she unfortunately could not see, turning the back to the assembly. She should wait for the end of the ceremony before having the pleasure to go to greet a lot of persons whom she knew present.

Her thoughts were interrupted by the voice of Edoardo Borromeo Galli, then that of Karanda de Mérode, who after some words, invited each to recite the Creed. Joint hands, she mixed her voice with the others.

Credo in Deum,
Altissimum Omnipotentem,
Creatorem caeli et terrae,
Inferos et paradisi,
Ultima hora animae judicem nostrae

Et in Aristotelem, prophetam,
Nicomaqui Phaetique filium,
Missum ut sapientiam et universi
Divas leges errantibus hominibus erudiret

Credo etiam in Christum,
Natum ex Maria et Ioseph,
Vitam dedit ut nobis paradisi viam monstraret
Sic, postquam sub Pontio passus est
Propter salutem
Nostram martyr perivit
Consecutus est Solem
Ubi Aristoteles ad Altissimi dexteram eum expectabat

Credo in Divinam Actionem,
Sanctam Ecclesiam aristotelicianam, romanam, unam et indivisibilem
Sanctorum communionem,
Peccatorum remissionem,
Carnis resurrectionem
Vitam aeternam.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Les dernières notes des chœurs allèrent s’évanouir dans les voûtes de l’édifice, laissant la place aux légers murmures de la foule, à quelques toussotements et au bruissement des riches vêtements des invités, qu’elle ne pouvait malheureusement pas voir, tournant le dos à l’assemblée. Elle devrait attendre la fin de la cérémonie avant d’avoir le plaisir d’aller saluer bon nombre de personnes qu’elle savait présentes.

Ses pensées furent interrompues par la voix de Edoardo Borromeo Galli, puis celle de Karanda de Mérode, qui après quelques mots, invitant chacun à réciter son Credo. Mains jointes, elle mêla sa voix à celle de tous.

Der Kardinal, der die Krönung leitete eröffnete die Zeremonie.
Ehrfurchtsvoll lauschte die junge Maid dem Chor.

Als dann das Glaubensbekenntnis gesprochen wurde, strauchelte sie.
Latein ... nachdem sie sich mit dem ersten Satz abgestrampelt hatte, schüttelte die 16-jährige den Kopf und wisperte es leise in ihrer Heimatsprache.

Credo in Deum,
Alti..altissimum Omni...omnipotentem...

Ich glaube an Gott, den allmächtigen Allerhöchsten,
Schöpfer des Himmels und der Erde,
der Höllen und des Paradieses,
Richter über unsere Seele zur Stunde des Todes.

Und an Aristoteles, seinen Propheten,
Sohn des Nikomachos und der Phaetis,
entsandt, den irregeleiteten Menschen
die Weisheit und die göttlichen Gesetze des Universums zu lehren.

Ich glaube auch an Christos,
geboren von Maria und Giosep.
Er widmete uns sein Leben, zeigte den Weg ins Paradies.
So kam es, dass er, nachdem er unter Ponce gelitten hatte,
im Martyrium gestorben ist, um uns zu retten.
Er ist zur Sonne zurückgekehrt, wo Aristoteles zur Rechten des Allmächtigen ihn erwartete.

Ich glaube an das Wirken Gottes;
an die Eine und Unteilbare Heilige Römische Aristotelische Kirche;
an die Gemeinschaft der Heiligen;
an die Vergebung der Sünden;
an das ewige Leben.

AMEN

The Cardinal, who led the coronation opened the ceremony.
Reverently listened the young maiden to the choir.

When the creed was then spoken, she stumbled.
Latin ... after she pedaled with the first set, the 16-year-old shook his head and whispered it quietly in their home language.

Era giunta sola questa volta. Aveva preso posto dove le era stato indicato sbirciando di tanto in tanto verso la parte del transetto alla sinistra dell'altare. Assorta nei propri pensieri, fu destata dall'annuncio dell'arrivo dell'Imperatore. Era sempre un'emozione poter essere parte di una cerimonia così solenne.

Era attenta alle parole dello zio e poi del Celebrante così su invito si unì al coro recitanto il Credo.

She had come alone this time. She had taken place , where they had been shown and peeped from time to time toward the transept to the left of the altar. Absorbed in her thoughts,she was awakened by the announcement arrival of the Emperor. It was always exciting to be part of a ceremony so solemn.

She was attentive to the words of his uncle and then at the invitation of the celebrant , she joined the choir reciting the Creed.

_________________

Suivant le protocole établi, je me plaçais à trois pas à proximité du couple impérial. Droit comme un piquet, je surveille, j'observe et ris intérieurement en voyant la dégaine de certaines personnes présentes, toutes plus pomponnées les unes des autres.
Un truc genre qui portait la plus belle toilette ou ferait la plus belle des révérence.

Je suis né avec du sang bleu, certes, mais ce monde n'est pas le mien.
J'écoute vaguement la cérémonie, fort peu intéréssé par se qui se disait..

Croyant oui, depuis que j'avais supplié le Très-Haut d'épargner la vie de mon Amour, chose que le ciel m'avait accordé. Mais je préférais me retrouver seul pour louer notre Créateur, sans témoin, seulement lui et moi

Une main qui se pose sur mon épaule

Un murmure qui me dessine un rictus amusé au coin des lèvres.
Clin d'oeil de connivence rendu à mon capitaine en guise d'affirmation

Et tandis que Louis s'éloigne, mon regard le suit,mon expression change..

une lueur quasi mauvaise passe sur mon visage, ma langue passe sur mes dents pointues, sourire carnassier
Je me réjouis


Following the established protocol, I placed myself in three steps near the imperial couple. Bolt upright, I watch, I watch and laugh inwardly seeing the draws some people present, all dolled up over each other.
A kind thing that was the most beautiful dress or would the most beautiful bow.

I was born with blue blood, yes, but this world is not mine.
I vaguely listening ceremony, little interested in who is saying ..

Believing so, since I had begged the Almighty to spare the life of my love, something that heaven had given me. But I preferred to be alone to rent our Creator, without witnesses, just him and me

A hand landed on my shoulder

A murmur that draws me amused smirk on his lips.
Wink of complicity made ​​my captain as an affirmation

And while Louis was away, my eyes followed him, my expression changes ..

a bad pass almost glow on my face, my tongue going on my sharp teeth, toothy smile
I look forward

The Imperial Marshal Ranian expected that the Emperor made his entrance into the cathedral and only when the last of his family was no longer in the square went too, greeted from the imperial guards and friends present headed for the aisle to reach the its place. As she went along she thought she had seen hatred in the eyes of the chief of the escort when he approached her and rant against her, at that moment she remembered the words that his poor grandmother always said, "Those who hate you and will reveal their anger or are secret admirers who can not understand why so many people love you or because hate themselves "the woman shook her head as if to remove it from all those thoughts and focus only on the ceremony. He walked over to the other Imperial Ministers and sat down between them, just in time for the start of the ceremony

The words of His Eminence Egal sounded inside the cathedral, while the emperor had knelt down on the pillow.
In the cathedral everything was silent, as if waiting for an event that was always new

He is a noble,but for the Imperial protocol,he must give way to Imperial nobles,then nobles ruling and at the ending,he will can entering..

La famille impériale fit son entrée dans la cathédrale. Sarah croisa le regard de son amie et malgré son teint opalescent qui révélait son inquiétude actuelle, elle fit l'effort d'un sourire rassurant et d'un signe de tête pour encourager celle ci à tenir son rang avec la majesté dont elle la savait capable. Etre princesse impériale n'avait rien d'un choix. C'était un devoir et un sacerdoce et elle soutenait donc Luisa de son mieux, restant dans l'ombre mais veillant à être là pour elle. Sarah avait cette habitude d'éminence grise, discrète et efficace pour veiller sur ceux qui avaient réussi à se faire une place dans le cercle ténu de ses amitiés.

Son regard se posa sur le reste de la famille, loupant un battement de coeur en appercevant Lorenz. Ciel qu'il ressemblait à Adrian par certains aspects. Elle aurait tant voulu que son époux soit là pour voir sa famille dans ce moment de reconnaissance. Mais la vie, capricieuse, semblait se jouer du bonheur des hommes. Alors la blonde inspira profondément et dans une profonde révérence salua le passage de la famille impériale en signe de respect.


-------

The imperial family made ​​its entrance into the cathedral. Sarah locked eyes with her friend despite its opalescent complexion revealed her current concern, she made the effort of a reassuring smile and a nod to encourage the latter to take her place with the majesty which she knew her able. Being imperial princess was not a choice. It was a duty and a priesthood and therefore supported Luisa its best, staying in the shade, but be sure to be there for her. Sarah had this habit of eminence grise, discreet and effective care of those who had managed to get a place in the thin circle of friendships.

Her eyes fell on the rest of the family, missing out on a heartbeat perceiving Lorenz. Good heavens! it looked like Adrian in some aspects. She wanted so much that her husband was there to see his family in this moment of recognition. But life, capricious, seemed to play happiness. Then the blonde took a deep breath and a deep reverence greeted the passage of the imperial family as a sign of respect.

Olà, mais qu'est-ce qui se passe! C'est la presque la catastrophe diplomatique qu'on frôlait là! Et cette bonne idée de se trouver un bon nouvel ami de virer au drame. Elle allait p't'être mal le prendre ou pire, se vexer. Alix peut pas s'empêcher de rigoler, néanmoins, en l'entendant. Et de murmurer tout bas à l'intention des deux autres mômes.

-« C'est parce qu'ils n'ont pas de robes à Armelle, c'est pas leur faute.»

Faut dire on pouvait pas ne pas reconnaître qu'il n'avait pas complètement tord. Et à Alix de se retenir un nouveau sourire. Un peu de tenue ! Elle avait pu profiter de la meilleure éducation auprès de Yolanda, elle avait rencontré le Grand Duc breton, on l'avait pensé assez méritante et sage pour l'emmener à la rencontre de la Reine de France au Louvre.
Alix se reprend un petit peu.

-« Et puis d'abord c'est pas sa faute si c'est une grosse Dame. C'est dur de s'empêcher de manger des madelei... tartes! »

Ne se rendant absolument pas compte qu'elle ne faisait que parfaire l'impression sale gosse. D'abord Yolanda aussi elle était un peu grosse, et en plus elle bottait, et puis même qu'elle était à moitié aveugle, mais ça l'empêche pas d'être une des plus jolies femmes de la terre. En toute ubjectivité. Alix sort de sa rêverie. Elle est heureuse de remarquer que Elendra s'entend très bien avec Guillaume qui avait su témoigner de son esprit vif.

C'est alors qu'il entre, celui pour qui elle avait fait tout cet énorme chemin qui avait duré des semaines, qu'elle avait traîner Marzina jusqu'ici. Son prince des mirabelles, celui-avec-qui-j'vais-m'marier-parce-que-d'abord-on-s'aime-tu-vois.

-« Looôthâ »
Et de se stopper tout net.
-« Erf.. keuf... keuf... »

Et de se cacher derrière Guillaume l'air de rien. On aurait pu trouver mieux mais comme il l'avait si bien fait remarquer tout le monde était petit aux alentours et Elendra n'était surtout pas pour soustraire à la règle.
C'est alors qu'Alix, pantoise observe l'arrivée de la famille impériale. Ils n'étaient certes pas habillés par Armelle, on pouvait pas être parfait, mais wha.
______________________________

Olà, what's happening? We're close to diplomatic disaster ! Her idea to makes an new friend out of him turned into tragedy. It might make her very inconfortable or worse, hurt her. Nonetheless Alix cannot refrain from laught listening him. She muttered to the other two kids.

-« That's because they don't wear a dress by Armelle, it isn'ot their falt. »

One had to recognize he was not totally wrong, indeed. Alix could not hold back a new smile. Come on, watch your manner ! She had enjoyed the best education with Yolanda, she had met the Great-Duke of Brittain, and some people throught of her diserving and responsible enough to take her to met the Queen of France at the Louvre.
And Alix pulled herself together.

-« It isn't her falt if she's a fat lady. It's hard to refrain from eating some madelei... pie ! »

She absolutely didn't realize that she's just perfectionning the impression that they were little brat. Yolanda too is a little bit fat, and moreover she had a limp, and she was half blind, and however she was one of the most beautiful women on the earth. In all ubjectivity. Alix snapped out her daydream. She was happy to notice that Elendra was getting on well with Guillaume who had suceeded in showing his lively spirit.

Thereafter he entered in catedrale, the one whom she had made this huge travel which had lasted several weeks, and dragged Marzina up to there. Her prince of mirabella, the-whom-i-will-marry-because-we-love-each-over.


-« Looôthâ »
She stop suddenly.
-« Erf... Keuf... Keuf.. »

She hid behind Guillaume as if nothing had happening. She could have find better hiding place but as Guillaume had so brillantly said everybody around her are little, even Elendra who was no exception to the rule.
That was when Alix looking at the arival of the imperial family speechless. Admittly they were not dressed by Armelle, no one can be perferf, but wha.

La main de Louis Track, Chef de l’Escorte Impériale, apparut immédiatement dans l’encadrement de la porte du carrosse afin de l’aider à en sortir sans encombre, main surmonté d’un regard si noir que l’on pouvait y lire toute la colère du monde concentrée en deux seuls points. Elle comprit que ce regard ne lui était pas destiné, connaissant fort bien l’Escorteur depuis le temps qu’il servait la famille impériale fidèlement, mais l’heure n’était pas à se poser des questions.

Ayant lâché sa main, son bras se tendit un instant, prêt à agripper celui de son époux, mais son geste s’arrêta là, soudain consciente de l’endroit où ils se trouvaient et surtout pour quelle occasion ils s’avançaient maintenant, côte à côte, vers les doubles battants largement ouverts de la Cathédrale, entre les deux rangs rouges et noirs de leur Escorte.

A peine le seul franchi que les chœurs s’élevèrent, presque assourdissants de solennité, jetant comme un poids sur les épaules de l’Impératrice, qui pourtant garda l’attitude que l’on attendait d’elle, digne, menton relevé, regardant droit devant elle, accordant ses pas à ceux de l’Empereur, un peu comme si elle était transfigurée par la fierté qu’elle ressentait. Fière de son époux, fière de ce qu’il avait accompli, de ce qu’il allait accomplir durant son règne, fière de lui avoir donné trois superbes héritiers, fière qu’il l’ait choisi, elle, pour l’accompagner tout au long de sa vie.

Même si elle ne regardait ni à droite ni à gauche, elle sentait tous les regards rivés sur eux tandis qu’ils remontaient la nef. Portée par lesdits regards et les chants, elle avançait, submergée par les émotions cachées qui lui serraient la gorge. Les premières marches de l’autel atteintes, elle s’éloigna de la présence rassurante de son époux en allant prendre place sur le siège qui l’attendait, laissant l’Empereur aux mains bienveillantes de son Eminence Edoardo Borromeo Galli et des cardinaux, prête à assister à son couronnement suprême.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Louis Track's hand, Head of the Imperial Escort, appeared immediately in the door frame of the coach to help her to go out of it, hand overcome by a look so black as we could read in it all the anger of the world concentrated in two only points. She understoodthat this look was not intended for her, knowing very well the Escortman since the time that he served the imperial family faithfully, but the hour was not to ask such questions.

Having left the hand, the arm stretched out one moment, she was ready to catch that of her husband, but its movement stopped there, suddenly conscious of the place where they were and especially for which opportunity they advanced now, side by side, on the double doors widely opened of the Cathedral, between both red and black rowsof their Escort.
And the choirs rose, almost deafening of solemnity, putting on as a weight of the Empress, who nevertheless kept the attitude that all expected from her, deserving, high chin, looking straight in front of her, according her steps to those of the Emperor, like as if she was transfigured by the pride which she felt. Proud of her husband, proud of what he had achieved, of what he was going to achieve during his reign, proud to have given him three magnificent heirs, proud that he chose her, to accompany him throughout his life.

Even if she did not look either to the right or to the left, she feltall the looks riveted on them where as they raised the nave. Carried by the aforementioned looks and the songs, she moved forward, submerged by the hidden feelings which squeezed her the throat. The first steps of the altar were reached, she went away from the reassuring presence of her husband by going to take the seat which waited for her, leaving the Emperor onto the hands of His Eminence Edoardo Borromeo Galli and cardinals, ready to attend hissupreme crowning.

( before the arrival of the Emperor)

There are fates that we do not choose. Things that seem to us unlikely, on the edge of dream, to see the limits of reality, and in a few days can become true. The vagaries of life that we can not control, particle fate, luck, which completely escape the man.

Become a semi divine being in the space of a few hours, be propelled to meet all the stages of Europe, becoming one of the most coveted parties, but also one of the most untouchable of the known world. All this can not be learned but lives.

Who would have thought that he, Lorenz von Frayner would one day Empire prince and his father would prevail on some of the world? It is in this troubled state of the young von Frayner was on the way to Strasbourg Cathedral with his brother and his sister's mind.

The horses were great princely coach pitch, leaving the convoy to thank you looks of the people. Onlookers shouted joy, euphoria, as if the coach was their last hope. These Cree threw prolonged shouts, huge, swollen like waves, so loud and so powerful, their vibrant sound filled the air of the capital.

The vehicle stopped in front of the Cathedral of Strasbourg. This great cathedral or church towers, the towers of the city, touching the big sky that makes eternity dream. Those blue eyes lost in time, only a few times, then a guard opened the door. He watched his brother, his sister and in a look he made them understand that it was time to leave.

The young prince went down, and up the steep steps before entering the cathedral. All assistance is returned with a long frilly dresses, a clashing of swords and armor, and of course a wagging chairs, when the princes were announced:

"Their Imperial Highnesses Lorenz, Luisa and Lothar von Frayner, Princes of the Empire. "

He entered the head, moved that his father had managed to gather around him the proud look, a slender waist, straight leg and a hesitant nothing. The handsome prince walked slowly between two rows of spectators. He felt on his skin shivers run long, the cold chills that give our greatest joys. He saw hardly anyone. Lost in his mind. He walked in his fine clothes, designed with utmost care by the Grand Master of the Wardrobe.



Behind him followed his sister and brother, as well dressed as their eldest. And they took to the place they had been assigned.

(avant l'arrivée de l'empereur)

Il y a des destins que l’on ne choisit pas. Des choses qu’il nous paraisse improbable, à la limite du rêve, voir à la limite de la réalité, et qui en une poignée de jours peuvent se réaliser. Des aléas de la vie que l’on ne peut contrôler, des particules de destin, de chance, qui échappent complètement à l’homme.

Devenir un être semi divin en l’espace de quelques heures, être propulsé au-devant de toute les scènes d’Europe, devenir l’un des partis les plus convoités mais aussi l’un des plus intouchables du monde connu. Tout cela ne s’apprend pas mais se vit.

Qui aurait imaginé que lui, Lorenz von Frayner, serait un jour prince d’Empire et que son père règnerait sur une partie du monde ? C’est dans cet état d’esprit troublé que le jeune von Frayner faisait route vers la cathédrale de Strasbourg en compagnie de son frère et de sa sœur.

Les chevaux du grand carrosse princier allaient au pas, laissant le convoi à la merci des regards du peuple. Les badauds criaient des joies, d’euphorie, comme si le carrosse était leur dernier espoir. Ces cries jetaient des clameurs prolongées, énormes, enflées comme des vagues, si sonores et si puissantes, leur bruit vibrant emplissait l’air de la capitale.

Le véhicule s’arrêta devant la cathédrale de Strasbourg. Cette grande cathédrale ou les clochers, ces mâts de la cité, touchaient le grand ciel qui fait rêver d'éternité. Ces yeux bleus se perdirent dans le temps, seulement quelques temps, puis un garde lui ouvrit la porte. Il observa son frère, sa sœur et d’un regard il leur fit comprendre qu’il était temps de sortir.

Le jeune prince descendit, et monta les grandes marches avant d’entrer dans la cathédrale. Toute l'assistance se retourna avec un long frou-frou de robes, un cliquetis d’épées et d’armures, et bien entendu un remuement de chaises, quand les princes furent annoncés :

« Leurs Altesses Impériales Lorenz, Luisa et Lothar von Frayner, Princes d’Empire. »

Il entra la tête haute, ému de ce que son père avait su réunir autour de lui ; L'allure fière, la taille fine, la jambe droite et un rien hésitante. Le beau prince avança avec lenteur entre deux haies de spectateurs. Il sentait sur sa peau courir de longs frissons, ces frissons froids que donnent les grands bonheurs. Il ne voyait pratiquement personne. Perdu dans son esprit. Il avançait dans son bel habit, imaginé avec le plus grand soin par le Grand maitre de la Garde-robe.



Derrière lui suivaient sa soeur et son frère, tout aussi bien vêtus que leur aîné. Et ils prirent place à l’endroit qu'on leur avait assigné.

Heba nella sua ingenua incoscienza, si fece prendere dalla festa, e non aspettò di meglio che entrare nella cattedrale seguendo altri nobili e stringendosi il cappotto col pellicciotto , aveva il suo vestito arabo e pensò che forse lasciare scoperto l'ombelico non era d'uopo in quella occasione.......
Il tempo era variabile di una primavera che tardava ad arrivare e tutti i fiumi erano in forse per esondare...

.....si infilò nella cattedrale mentre i suo naso finì all'insù vetri e proporzioni incredibili la distolsero dall'obbiettivo e rimase qualche minuto così a guardare.....
poi si guardò in torno.... dove doveva andare... cercò in giro se c'era un volto amico ..........

e poi pensò .......ma mio marito...dov'è?????



Heba its naive unconsciousness, she became caught up in the celebration , and did not wait to get into the cathedral following better than other nobles and clutching his coat with a fur coat, had his Arab dress and thought that maybe the navel does not leave uncovered it was necessary on that occasion .......
The weather was variable with a spring that was late to arrive and all the rivers were perhaps overflows ...

..... slipped into the cathedral while he finished his nose upturned glasses and looked away from the lens and the unbelievable proportions remained a few minutes to look so .....
then looked back .... where he was going ... looked around if there was a friendly face ..........

and then he thought [b] ....... but ... where's my husband??? [/ b]

His Eminence followed immediately behind the Primate of the Holy Roman Empire Germanic Nations, and positioned himself beside him on the altar of the Cathedral. So he waited for the start of the ceremony.

Sua Eminenza seguì subito dietro il Primate del Sacro Romano Impero Nazioni Germaniche, e si posizionò al suo fianco sull'altare della Cattedrale. Così attese l'inizio della cerimonia.
_________________

Ils venaient donc pour observer un empereur... Guillaume écoutait attentivement Alix, qui semblait bien plus savante que lui pour toutes ces mondanités.

- Un Sparte !

Une lueur d'admiration passa dans les yeux du garçon. Les Grecs et les grands guerriers spartiates l'avaient toujours fait rêver. Mais c'est à peine s'il eut le temps d'observer le cousin Sparte désigné par Alix car la furie l'emmena plus loin afin retrouver une autre fille, un peu plus âgée.

Ravie de vous rencontrer! Alix beaucoup parlé de vous vous savez!

Guillaume leva un sourcil. Deux hypothèses pouvaient être formulées. Soit Elendra mentait, soit elle le confondait avec un autre. Les deux idées se faisaient bataille. D'un côté, sa nourrice lui avait enseigné de ne jamais avoir de préjugé. De l'autre côté... l'idée d'être confondu avec un autre ne lui plaisait guère. Tout le temps qu'Elendra débita son flot continu de paroles, le garçon réfléchit intensément à cette affaire de mensonge ou de confusion. Finalement, une remarque le fit réagir et il oublia ses veines préoccupations.

- Non mais d'façon la tenue d'Alix elle est bien plus jolie que celle de la grosse dame, alors tu peux pas lui mettre 10/10. Et d'observer quelques instants Elendra. La tienne aussi, elle est mieux ! Le problème c'est que tu peux pas te juger toi même. Sinon c'est pas ubjocti... objucti... objectif ! Mais moi je le suis et... je te trouve belle comme Hélène.

Guillaume était un peu perdu dans tout cela. Sont fous ces impériaux, en même temps ! Ils mentent pour embrouiller les enfants, ils se notent, ils s’appellent Fiole Ebréchée...
Rapidement, la brune les emporta vers une autre femme. Elle était si richement parée et en possession d'une telle couronne sur la tête que le garçon pensa être en face de l'impératrice. Il n'avait évidemment pas tiqué au titre donné par Elendra.

"Mes yeux Demoiselle ? Vous me flattez ! "

- Elle vous flatte sans doute ! Je ne sais pas si elle aurait repéré vos yeux si vous n'étiez l'impératrice.

Il n'y avait aucune méchanceté dans ses paroles, juste une sincérité trop aiguisée. Sa nourrice lui avait appris que l'on flattait toujours les gens parvenus. Guillaume, plus que les yeux de la femme, remarquait surtout...

- Et votre taille, dites nous ! Comment faites vous pour rester si petite ? Quelle chance vous avez ! J'aimerai aussi être comme vous. Ainsi, on continuerait à me préparer des tartes au citron toute ma vie. Parce que quand je serai grand, je pourrai plus faire de caprices et en réclamer... Vous aussi, votre nourrice vous gâte ?

Le garçon observait Nashia, les yeux brillants, heureux de peut-être obtenir enfin la solution miracle.

- Je peux aussi ne plus manger ma soupe mais après on dit que je ne suis pas sage et on me fait pas de tarte au citron... C'est un serpent qui se mord la queue !

_______________________________________

They come to admire an emperor... Guillaume listened carefully Alix, who seemed more learned than him for all these society life.

- One Sparte !

A light of admiration passed in the eyes of the boy. The Greeks and the big Spartan warriors had always made him dream. But it is hardly if he had time to observe the Sparte cousin indicated by Alix because the fury took him farther to find another girl, a little older.

Nice to meet you! Alix talks a looooot about you!

Guillaume raised an eyebrow. Two hypotheses could be formulated. Either Elendra lied, or she confused him with an other one. Both ideas were made battle. On one side, his nursemaid had taught him to have never prejudice. On the other side the idea to be confused with an other one pleased him hardly. All the time that Elendra sold its continuous stream of words, the boy thinks intensely about this affair of lie or confusion. Finally, a remark made him react and he forgot his veins concerns.

- No but anyway Alix's dress is more attractive than that of the big lady, then you can't put her 10/10. And to observe a few moments Elendra. Yours also, it's better! The problem it's because you can't consider yourself you even. Otherwise it is not ubjocti... objucti... objective ! But me, I am and I find you're beautiful as Hélène.

Guillaume was a little lost in all this. These imperiales are crazy, I have to sail ! They lie to muddle up the children, they note, they are called Fiole Ebréchée...
Quickly, Elendra took them towards another woman. She was so richly adorned and in possession of such a crown on the head as the boy thought of being in front of the empress. He had not obviously pulled a face in the title given by Elendra.

"My eyes? You flatter me! "

- She doubtless flatters you ! I don't know if she would have spotted your eyes if you were not the empress.

There was no wickedness in the words, just a too much sharpened sincerity. His nursemaid had taught him that we always flattered upstart people. Guillaume, more than the eyes of the woman, noticed especially...

- And your size, say we ! How make you to remain so small ? How lucky you are! I shall like being also as you. So, we would continue to prepare me lemon pies all my life. Because when I grow up, I can't more make of whims and demand it... You too, your nursemaid spoils you ?

The boy observed Nashia, eyes brilliant, happy to obtain maybe finally the miracle solution.

- I can also not eat any more my soup but after we say that I am not wise and we don't make me lemon pie... It is the snake which bites itself the tail!

Pas très loin, vraiment très très prés de Charlemagne, elle était là . Comment reconnaitre un grand jour ? Déjà il y a le bain, trop tôt le matin, à une heure ou la gamine n'aime pas être réveillée. Ensuite dans bain la nourrisse frotté trop fort, oui elle ne prend pas de bain souvent mais quand même ce n'est pas une raison pour frotter si fort!

Et pour couronner, la cerise sur le gâteau, un grand jour il se reconnaît par un cadeau que sa mère envoie, une robe, oui c'est la classe d'avoir une maman grand maitre des robes quand même, même si elle ne l'a voit jamais ...

C'est donc vêtue de cette robe qu'elle entra dans la cathédrale, entre le prince et Jehan, son beau à elle ! Il fallait qu'elle soit sage aujourd’hui sa maman était là, puis il paraît qu'un couronnement c'est un truc super important alors...



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Not very far, very very close to Charlemagne, she was there. How to recognize a great day? Already there is the bath early in the morning, an hour or girl does not like to be woken up. Then in the bath nourishes rubbed too hard, so it does not take a bath often but still it is not a reason to rub so hard!

And to top the icing on the cake, a great day it is recognized by a gift that his mother sends a dress, so this is the class to have a mom grandmaster dresses anyway, even if it is the has ever seen ...

So wearing this dress she entered the cathedral, between the prince and Jehan, his brother to her! It had to be wise today his mom was there, then it seems that this is a coronation super important thing then ...

Inside the Cathedral

At least, also the last celebrant arrived to the Cathedral and prepared for the ceremony, so they all exited the sacristy and slowly went to the altar, where all the cushions for the kneeling down of Emperor were yet placed.

Some minutes later, the noise of many horses and carriages came from outside the Cathedral, so His Eminence ordered that the huge main door should be completely opened and then went with his primatial team to the threshold, seeing His Majesty slowly getting off the convoy with His wife to walk towards the entrance, where he climbed the Cathedral's staircase step by step.

Lawrence that day was wearing one of his best clothes. He entered the Cathedral with solemn step and, as Imperial Judical Minister, he sat in the pews reserved for the Imperial Councilors, nodding to the colleagues.
It was not the first time that he attended the Coronation of an Emperor: the last time he had done it as Duke of Milan. Despite this, the emotion was strong, and Lawrence gathered himself in prayer for a few moments.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lawrence quel giorno indossava uno dei suoi abiti migliori. Entrò nella Cattedrale con passo solenne e, come Ministro Imperiale per gli Affari Giuridici, prese posto nei banchi riservati ai Consiglieri Imperiali, salutando con un cenno i colleghi.
Non era la prima volta che partecipava all'Incoronazione di un Imperatore: l'ultima volta l'aveva fatto in veste di Duca di Milano. Nonostante questo, l'emozione era forte, e Lawrence si raccolse per qualche momento in preghiera.

Luthi - noch in dem Kleid aus Brokat und Seide gekleidet und sich darin unwohl fühlend, erst später würde sie dieses Gewand gegen die Rüstung tauschen - trat in die Kathedrale ein.



Das Kleid schmiegte sich an ihre schlanke Figur - auch wenn das Honigmäulchen eher das Gefühl hatte, erdrückt zu werden. Viel lieber wäre sie in bequemen Hosen hier.

Ein sanftes Lächeln lag auf ihren Lippen und sie kam aus dem Staunen über die sakrale Pracht des Gebäudes nicht hinüber.
Sie tippelte durch die Bankreihen und suchte sich einen Platz. War ihr Großvater auch hier? Immerhin gehörte er dem ältesten imperialen Adel an.
Sie reckte sich, doch konnte sie seine Gestalt nicht unter den vielen Gästen der Krönung ausmachen. Ob sie sich auf die Bank stellte? Aber wenn man sie erkennen würde, würde es nur Ärger geben - so hopste sie zwei drei mal. Doch erblickte sie kaum Würdenträger aus den deutschen Landen - und auch ihren Opili nicht. Vermutlich hatte dieser wieder viel zu viel zu tun.
So seufzte sie und ließ sich auf die Bank fallen, da erblickte sie ihr ein bekanntes Gesicht. Lestad - ihr Befehlshaber in der Schweiz.
Munter winkte sie ihm zu.

--------------

Luthi - still dressed in a outfit made of brocade and silk and feeling uncomfortable inside it, as she only can change into the armour later - enters the cathedral.

The dress nestled on her slim figure - even though she with the sweet tooth has the feeling to be suffocated. She would prefer to be here in comfy pants.

A gentle smile was on her lips and she was impressed by the sacral magnificence of the building.
She walks through the bench rows, looking for a place to sit. Would her grandfather be also here? He belongs to the oldest imperial nobility, after all.
She streches herself but wasn't able to see his shape in the crowd of the many people present for the coronation. Should she stand on the bench to have a better look? But if she was recognized while standing on it, trouble sure will come, so she just bounce two or three times. Still she didn't saw much nobility of the german kingdom as well as her grand daddy. He probably has much to do.
So she sighs and let herself fall into the bench - it was then when she recognized a familiar face. Lestad, her commander of the mission in Helvetia.
Lively she waves to him.
_________________

Die Blonde war der Einladung und dem Befehl gefolgt, in der Gardeuniform der Kaiserlichen Gardisten stand sie bereits im Dom als Lestad selbigen betrat, einen Blick nach oben warf zu den Plätzen des Adels ob er sie dort oben vermutete bei Ronda und den beiden Kindern, noch vor ein paar Tagen wäre sie wohl dort gesessen doch nun tats Mädel ihre Pflicht, folgte den Gästen mit den Augen sobald sie den Dom betraten musterte ihre Erscheinung ihren Ausdruck. Langsam bahnte sie sich den Weg zu ihm, blieb schließlich hinter ihm stehn, fragte dann ganz unverblühmt Suchst du jemanden Schatz ?räusperte sich versuchte betohnt ernst zu bleiben melde zum Dienst angetreten.

The blonde had followed the invitation and command, in the Guard uniform of the Imperial Guard she was already in the cathedral as lestad selfsame entered, a glance upwards threw the courts of the nobility if he suspected up there in Ronda and their two children, yet a few days ago but now they would be sitting girl tats their duty well there, the guests followed by the eyes as soon as they entered the Cathedral studied her appearance expression. Slowly she made her way to him, finally remained standing behind him, then asked all unverblühmt Looking for someone dear? Betohnt cleared his throat, trying to remain serious reporting for duty at the earliest.

Lestad sprang vom Pferd und nahm seine Position in der Nähe des Kaisers ein. Der Führer der persönlichen Eskorte des Ludwig kam an und setzte scharfe Warte gegen seinen imperialen Reichsmarschall und General. Der deutsche Hauptmann blitzte den Kerl an, hielt sich aber zurück. Er dachte sich seinen Teil dazu und nutzte die Zeit nach verdächtigen Personen abzusuchen. Dabei sah er auf einer erhöhten Position seine Schwester, mit seinem Sohn Kataldo und seinem Neffen Aaron. Und ein lächelnden Stefan Malmö, der sich um die Sicherheit der drei kümmert.

Der altgediente leicht verkrüppelte Soldat nutzte die Zeit einen liebevollen lächelnden Blick zu den vieren zu werfen. Er hoffte, dass sie seinen Brief erhalten hat, dass sie bitte beim Adel des Imperiums sitzen soll und seinen Platz dort vertreten solle.

Nachdem man den Kaiser und seine Frau an die persönliche Eskorte des Kaisers übergab nahm Lestad seine Position im Dom ein. Seine Aufgabe war die Position des imperialen Adels. So positionierte er sich an einem Platz wo er alles überblicken konnte. Sein Schwert versucht er hinter dem Schild zu verdecken. Er hatte zwar Erlaubnis als Gardist bewaffnet in eine Kirche zu gehen. Aber wohl war ihm dabei dennoch nie. Es ist und bleibt ein Gotteshaus. Und während er sich über diese Dinge Gedanken macht, suchte er erneut nach seiner Schwester, welche nun hoffentlich auch hinein kommt.


_______________________________________________



Lestad jumped off his horse and took his position near the emperor. The leader of the personal escort of Ludwig came and sat waiting sharp against his imperial Marshal and General. The German captain glared at the guy, but held back. He thought his part and took the time to scan suspects. He saw his sister on an elevated position, with his son Kataldo and his nephew Aaron. And a smiling Stefan Malmö, the three take care of the security.

The veteran slightly crippled soldier took the time a loving smiling and looking to the four toss. He hoped that she had received his letter, that they should please sit by the nobility of the Empire and should represent its place there.

After being handed the Emperor and his wife to the personal escort of the Emperor took a lestad its position in the cathedral. His task was the position of the imperial nobility. He positioned himself in a place where he could see everything. His sword he tries to hide behind the shield. He had permission to go as armed guard in a church. But it probably was there never yet. It is and remains a place of worship. And while he makes himself thought about these things, he looked again at his sister, who is now hopefully also comes into it.

[On the way to the Cathedral]

The Emperor appeared at the top of the main staircase and she was not able to refrain from making him a small wink of admiring and approving eye. The time did not seem to have had of grip on him. His high stature always so straight and proud, even if a cane did not leave him any more, only some silvery threads betrayed an age which some qualified, wrongly, of advanced.

Certainly, he was not any more the young man to whom shehad bound her fate twenty years earlier, but he had lost nothing, either his ardour, or his character at least well dipped, in spite of years and fights. His look was always the same, possessing liveliness and faculty to drill souls.

An arm under his, it is together that they rose in the imperial coach, supervised closely by the official Guard. Taking care of not plundering the work of artist of their respective needlewomen.

The more the Cathedral approached, the more the crowd was dense, crowd which was suddenly split by the personal Escort of the imperial family. All dressed in black and in red, impressive of efficiency. Escort would wait for them in front of the Cathedral, guaranteeing them safety from their descent of the coach. Impressive, yes, the Ecorcheurs who would have reminded to the unconscious which would have had the boldness to approach too closely with bad intentions that their name was not usurped. So quickly as the idea would have come to him, so quickly he would have seen his last hour arriving.

In spite of the coach had to slow down sometimes, the Empress had to cling to preserve hairstyle and proper clothing. Chasing away the crazy idea to snuggle up in the arms of her husband, to plunder their luxurious clothes by embracing him passionately, to kiss him crazily at the risk of making fall pitifully the artistic bun which had almost cost as much her nerves as those of the chambermaid.

But she remained straight and deserving, adducing simply to return the pressure of the hand and to bend slightly to him, murmuring: God, I love you so much. Before seeing the door of the coach opening, letting him go out in first and approach the building.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


[Sur le chemin de la Cathédrale]

L’Empereur apparut au sommet du grand escalier et elle ne put s’empêcher de lui faire un petit clin d’œil admiratif et approbateur. Le temps ne semblait pas avoir eu de prise sur lui. Sa haute stature toujours aussi droite et fière, même si une canne ne le quittait plus, seuls quelques fils argentés trahissait un âge que certains qualifiaient, à tort, d’avancé.
Certes, il n’était plus le jeune homme auquel elle avait lié son destin vingt ans plus tôt, mais il n’avait rien perdu, ni sa fougue, ni son caractère pour le moins bien trempé, malgré les années et les épreuves. Son regard était toujours le même, possédant vivacité et faculté de percer les âmes.

Un bras sous le sien, c’est ensemble qu’ils montèrent dans le carrosse impérial, encadrés de près par la Garde officielle. Prenant soin de ne pas saccager le travail d’artiste de leurs couturières respectives.

Plus la Cathédrale approchait, plus la foule se faisait dense, foule soudain fendue par quelques montures chevauchées par les Escorteurs personnels de la famille impériale. Tous vêtus de noir et de rouge, impressionnants d’efficacité. Les Escorteurs les attendraient sur le parvis, leur garantissant une sécurité sans faille dès leur descente du carrosse. Impressionnants, oui, les Ecorcheurs qui auraient rappelé à l’inconscient qui aurait eu l’audace de s’approcher de trop près avec de mauvaises intentions que leur nom n’était pas usurpé. Aussi rapidement que l’idée lui serait venue, aussi rapidement il aurait vu sa dernière heure arriver.

Malgré que le carrosse dut ralentir parfois, l’Impératrice devait se cramponner de son mieux afin de conserver coiffure et tenue correctes. Chassant l’idée folle de se blottir dans les bras de son époux, de saccager leurs somptueux vêtements en l’enlaçant fougueusement, de l’embrasser follement au risque de faire chuter lamentablement l’artistique chignon qui avait failli coûter autant ses nerfs que ceux de la camériste.

Mais elle demeura droite et digne, s’autorisant simplement à rendre la pression de sa main et à se pencher légèrement en lui murmurant : Dieu que je vous aime, vous. Avant de voir la porte du carrosse s’ouvrir, le laissant sortir sur le parvis en premier et s'approcher de l'édifice.

Le sacre de l'Empereur... Pourquoi y était-elle présente? Plusieurs raison s'offraient à elle, par grand respect pour Liz, par amitié pour Lorenz, pour représenter sa famille, en l'absence de ses deux plus grand emblèmes, ou tout simplement pour faire plaisir à son époux. Lorsque son mari lui avait proposé de l'accompagner, elle avait simplement les épaules, avec un air détaché, et lâché un simple : Pourquoi pas? Comme à l'accoutumé elle prit grand soin de choisir sa tenue. Après tout elle était égérie des Doigts d'Or, et devait les représenter et leur rendre honneur dans toute occasion. Elle choisit donc une robe au lourd tissue d'émeraude, et au broderies d'or signé Attia des juli. C'est ainsi paré de beaux atout que la nouvellement Talleyrand prit le bras de son tendre époux qui semblait jamais alaise lors de tel évènement, contrairement à elle. Du moins ce jour là elle était étrangement semblable à Thomas. Elle qui en temps normal aurait papillonné d'une personne à l'autre, saluant ses connaissance, offrant par ci par là son large sourire chaleureux, se contentait aujourd'hui de rester près du Ténébreux, hochant parfois la tête avec un léger sourire, mais très vite elle prit place, en attendant que la cérémonie débute.

Nous ferons comme vous le voudrez Darling.*

Un doux sourire lui fut adressez pour essayer de le rassurer. Elle savait qu'il n'était pas réellement enjoué à l'idée de se trouver ici, et qu'il ne ferait aucun effort pour être aimable avec les autres. Alors soit, elle le serait pour deux.


*Chéri.

------------------------------------------------------------------

The coronation of the Emperor… Was it why there presents? Several reason were offered to her, by great respect for Liz, friendship for Lorenz,to represent his family, in the absence of hertwo larger emblems, or quite simply to pleaseher husband. When her husband had proposedto him to accompany it, it had simply theshoulders, with an air detached, and releasedsimple: Why not? As with accustomed it tookgreat care to choose its behaviour. After all itwas muse of the Gold Fingers, and was to represent them and return honor in anyoccasion to them. It thus chooses one wraps  with heavy the emerald tissue, andthe gold embroideries signed Attia of the juli. Itis thus avoided beautiful asset which latelyTalleyrand took to the tender arm of soundhusband who never seemed draw sheet at the time of such event, contrary to it. At least thisday there it was curiously similar to Thomas. Itwhich in normal weather would have flickeredfrom one person to another, greeting itsknowledge, offering here and there its broadcordial smile, was satisfied today to remainclose to the Dark one, sometimes shaking thehead with a light smile, but very quickly it tookseat, while waiting for that the ceremonybegins. 

We will make as you will want it Darling.

A soft smile was address to him to try to reassure it. It knew that it was not reallycheerful with the idea to be here, and that itwould not make any effort to be pleasant withthe others. Then is, it would be it for two.

Just time to say more than a tornado jumped into the arms of Elandra, the budding journalist and vrilla eardrums Baroness tidy.
_________________

Et à Alix d'entrer à la suite de sa marraine accompagné du jeune Guy. Qui comme son père avait semblablement l'habitude de se trouver sur le chemin des deux Montfort. La Fadette était vêtue pour l'occasion d'Armelle, sa créatrice qu'elle préférait d'entre toutes :



Très pratique pour les voyages avec ce manteau qu'on pouvait retirer dès qu'on avait trop chaud et remettre dès qu'il faisait trop froid. Intelligent hein?! N'ayant tout de même pas oublier de prendre dans ses affaires de quoi se changer pour l'après cérémonie.

Et de les suivre, d'aller sur le banc etc...
Le duc?

-« Le duc? »

Et de papillionner des yeux en parcourant ensuite l'assemblée avec ceux là même. Quel Duc chanceux serait celui qui arriverait à rameuter autant de foule !

-« Nous sommes au couronnement de l'empereur. Un Von Frayner. Regardes, il y a des rois parmi nous dont mon cousin Hadrien quelque chose de Sparte. Il y a des souverains de toutes les provinces du saint empire de la germanie. Il y a des princes, regarde là-bas il y a... Luisa ! Une grande princesse ! Et... »

De continuer son trajet oculaire. Plissement de nez en apercevant un petit ovni se déplacer avant entrain d'un bout à l'autre de la cathédrale calepin à la main.

-« Elendra !! »

Et de se lever sans plus attendre, ouvrant grand la bouche. Mais c'tait bien elle ! Quoi de plus logique en même temps. Lorsque la grande famille castrogontérienne se disloque, juste avant son arrivée en Bretagne, c'était bien dans son pays Mirabelle que Elendra devait retourner. Et d'ailleurs Yolanda à Genêve ! Elle serait peut-être là elle aussi !
Alix sans trop hésiter prend la main de Guillaume et de Marzina pour aller se ruer sur son amie.

-« Elendrââââ ! Elendrââââââ! »

Elle manque de percuter et une femme dans une fabuleuse robe rose et de peu mais fini par arriver à bon port. Tout juste devant la petite brune et de se laisser tomber sur elle pour l'enlacer bien fort.

-« Elendraa.... Et de la libérer de son étreinte. A l'intention des deux comparses : C'est Elendra, elle vivait avec moi à Château-Gontier! Elendra, voilà ma marraine, Marzina et puis Guillaume. »

___________________
And to Alix to enter following Marzina and young Guy. Who, as his father, has apparently the habit to be in their road. Alix, for the occasion, wore a dress made by her favorite dressmaker, Armelle.
Pactrical for trips with that coat that you could take off when it's hot and put on when it get's colder. Clever, isn't it? However, she didn't forget to take in her package some other clothes to wear after the ceremony.

And she follows them, sitting on the bench, etc...
The duke?

-« The duke? »

And she winked, looking througtout the cathedral. What a lucky duke would be the one who succeed to have so many people at his ceremony !

-« We are at the coronaty of the emperor. A von Frayner. Look, there are kings with us, among them my cousin Hadrien something of Sparte. There are sovereign of every country of the Holy Empire of the Germany. There are princes, look over there, there is... Luisa ! A great princess ! And... »

She continued her occular travel troughout the assembly. She wrinkled her nose while appeared a little ovni running throughout the catedral holding a notepad.

-« Elendra !! »

She stood up immediately, opening her mounth. She was right, it was Elendra ! It was logical after all . When the great castrogontérien family had dislocated, just before she arrived in Brittain, it was in the Mirabelle Plum Land that Elendra had planned to return. Besides, Yolanda was in Geneve ! Maybe she would be here too !
Without hesitation, Alix took Guillaume and Marzina's hands to rush to her friend.

-« Elendrâââ ! Elendrâââââ! »

She nearly bimp into a woman in a fabulous pink dress, but finally reached her friend. Just in time to face Elendra and let herself fall on her to hug her really strongly.

-« Elendra... she says after freeing her of the hug. To his two chaperons she adds: This is Elendra, she lived with me at Château-Gontier! Elendra, here are my marraine, Marzina, and then Guillaume. »

[Un grand merci à Jidé Elendra pour la traduction]
_________________

Lui aussi commençait à criser intérieurement à force de prendre racine devant la porte. Mais il faisait son possible pour rester calme, vu l'état de Louis valais mieux pas qu'il l'ouvre...
Quand il entend que ceux qu'ils attendent depuis des plombes ne sont même pas là, il allait râler pour de bon mais une main Lestarienne lui empoigne le bras et le fait courir comme jamais jusqu'aux écuries.

D'un bond il sauta sur le dos de sa monture et parti avec au triple galop pour arrivé à temps devant la cathédrale, suivant Lest de près. Une fois sur place, les cheveux en bataille qu'il tenta vainement de remettre en place avant de descendre de son cheval attaché aux coté de celui de son frère et vint à son tour se mettre au garde à vous net et précis tout aussi essoufflé et rouge.

Un p'tit coup de coude au frangin et lui murmure sans pour autant bouger d'un cil.
Tu verrais ta tête... une tomate croisée avec un épouvantail... t'pourras pas entrer dans cet état Lest.

Puis il pose son regard sur Louis qui semblais près a pouvoir désosser le premier qui dirai un mot de travers.

Il n'avait pas réellement l'envi d'être là, son humeur était plutôt maussade et ses activités prenante. Mais il ne pouvait pas refuser à une hermine la présence du cerf, même si tout était trop compliqué et trop mélanger pour être clair. Le Talleyrand avait prit soin de se vêtir de façon moins conventionnel et après avoir passer des vêtements fort discret. Il ce tourna vers son épouse, proposer à celle-ci de l’accompagner semblait la moindre des choses et elle n'avait guère refuser. Ce sont donc en couples que Thomas et Hellina entèrent dans l'édifice. Trop de gens, beaucoup trop d'inconnus ce qui ne pouvait que déplaire à cet homme qui était prudent devant les inconnus. Le temps tout de même de voir quelques personnes d'Epinal ou de Lorraine avant de chercher la place des petits gens, nul envie d'être trop proche. Il s'installa donc en compagnie de son épouse et retira son chapeau qui fut posé sur ses genoux.

Dès que cela est terminé, nous rentrons...



---------------------------------

It was not really the environment to be there, his mood was rather dull and stakeholder activities. But he could not deny the presence of an ermine deer, even if it was all too complicated and mix to be clear. Talleyrand had taken care to dress in a less conventional and after passing clothes very discreet. That he turned to his wife, offer it to accompany seemed the least of things, and she had hardly refuse. So these are couples that Thomas and Hellina entèrent in the building. Too many people, too many unknowns that could only displease the man who was cautious before the unknown. Time still to see some people Epinal or Lorraine before looking up the little people, no one wanted to be too close. So he settled with his wife and took off his hat, which was on his lap.

Once this is completed, we return ...
_________________

Le petit Guillaume qui suivait Marzina et Alix, le voilà. De son chemin, il a été détourné par une femme et une fille. Nourrice Pétronille lui avait pourtant bien dit de ne pas répondre aux inconnues. Mais comment se conformer aux sages indications de sa nourrice et jouer le muet devant une fille aux charmants yeux bleus ? Surtout quand cette fille se rend à un sacre, dans une belle cathédrale avec plein de gens bien habillés et qui sentent bon. Ce n'était pas comme mémé Henriette qui puait un peu. Elle offrait souvent de la confiture au garçon Mirandole, ce qui pardonnait son odeur nauséabonde.

- Surtout la contifure à la prune..., songea Guillaume à haute voix.

Comme surpris par son propre son, le garçon plaqua ses petits doigts encore potelés sur sa bouche. Parfois, il oubliait la différence entre ses pensées et la parole, ce qui était gênant en public et devant des inconnues...

"Ne fais pas de bêtise. Reste tranquille. Regarde sagement. Et ne te perds pas."

Les indications parvinrent aux oreilles du Mirandole mais mirent un certain temps à monter au cerveau, absorbé qu'il était dans l'observation de ce qui l'entourait. La cathédrale, la foule... Le regard s'étant perdu sur les hauts vitraux envahis d'images et de scènes, il percuta une femme. Guillaume ne leva pas les yeux sur elle et s'éloigna en s'excusant confusément.

- Pardon m'dame, bleus vitraux, tout le...

Comprenant qu'il était encore moins clair en parlant, il se tut et retrouva Alix et Marzina à qui il s'accrocha à la robe, pour ne pas se perdre.
Enfin, ils s'installèrent sur un banc et le Mirandole se pencha vers Alix pour lui demander :

- Tu me diras où est le duc ?

Il n'avait pas bien compris que l'on sacrait un empereur...

_______________________________________

The small Guillaume, who was following Marzina et Alix, it was him. He was diverted from his way. Nevertheless, nursemaid Pétronille had told well to him not to answer the unknowns. But how conform to the wise indications of his nursemaid and play the mute in front of the charming blue eyes of a girl ? Especially when this girl goes to a coronation, in a beautiful cathedral with a lot of well dressed people and who smell good. It was not as grandma Henriette who stank a little. She used to offer some jam to the boy Mirandole, what forgave her foul smell.

- Especially jam in plum..., dreamed Guillaume aloud.

As surprised by his own sound, the boy stuck his still plump little fingers on his mouth. Sometimes, he forgot the difference between his thoughts and the word, what was annoying in public and in front of unknowns...

"Don't do anything stupid. Remain quiet. Viewing wisely. And don't lose yourself."

The indications reached the ears of Mirandole but mirror some time to rise to the brain, absorbed that he was in the observation of what surrounded him. The cathedral, the crowd... The look was lost on the high stained-glass windows invaded by images and by scenes, he collided a woman. Guillaume didn't raise eyes on her and went away by apologizing confusedly.

- Excuse me m'dam, blues stained-glass windows, everything...

He understood that he was not clear and kept silent. He found Alix and Marzina to whom he hung on to not get lost.
Finallement, they settled down on a bench and Mirandole bent towards Alix to ask her :

- Will you say to me where is the duke ?

He had not well included that we crowned an emperor...

Un article de la KAP qui vaut le coup d'oeil
http://www.degloriaregni.com/KAP/index.php?id_depeche=40538

Strasbourg, ville inconnue pour la jeune fille qui pourtant avait fait le déplacement jusqu'à elle et essayait de ne pas s'y perdre.
Debout devant un miroir, la jeune fille se regardait, donnant un dernier coup de brosse dans ses longs cheveux. Elle devait être parfaite. Ne pas faire honte à la famille, ne pas faire honte à celui qui avait demandé sa présence.
Quittant son poste d'observation, Cira s'approcha de la table d'appoint et attrapa le petit coffret qui s'y trouvait. De là, elle en sortit un collier et le plaça délicatement autour de son cou avant de retourner au miroir et de regarder l'effet donné. Ce n'était pas trop mal et la robe combinée au collier mettaient en valeur ses yeux bleus.



Des petits coups furent frapper contre la porte de sa chambre et la jeune Raveline sortit de la pièce. Il était temps d'y aller.
Suivit de près par Sebastian, l'homme à tout faire de son oncle, Cira quitta l'auberge où elle s'était installée pour grimper dans un coche et se laisser conduire au lieu du couronnement.

Ça va, je suis bien ? Tu as bien serré ma robe hein ? Et puis tu reste bien avec moi, tu me laisse pas toute seule et de toute façon si tu le fais je dis tout à tonton.

Hochement de tête du majordome. Oui elle est bien, oui il a assez serré même si ce n'est pas son boulot et encore oui il ne la laissera pas. Si il avait été envoyé ici c'était bien pour s'assurer qu'il n'arriverait rien à la jeune fille.

Devant les réponses muettes qui étaient quand même des réponses, Cira se détendit légèrement et tourna la tête vers la petit fenêtre du coche. Combien de personnes seraient présentes ? Qui aurait-il ? Autant de questions qui s’agglutinaient dans l'esprit de la toute jeune fille de 11 ans.

Et puis le coche s'arrêta et Sebastian descendit en premier pour pouvoir lui tendre la main et ainsi l'aider à mettre pieds à terre à son tour.
Une main posée sur l'avant bras de son garde du corps/chaperon, la jeune fille pénétra dans la Cathédrale et balaya la foule du regard.

Sebastian, il va falloir que tu sois mes yeux. Je suis trop petite pour voir qui est présent ou non avec toute cette foule. Tu vois ma marraine ? Ou Lothar ?

Hum...oui il me semble voir la Duchesse. Du moins sa robe rouge, celle du défilé dont vous m'avez parlé et....ah non ce n'est pas elle...attendez...ah ! Elle est là ! Oui en effet ce n'était pas elle du tout. Hum...par contre je ne vois pas le jeune Prince. Il ne doit pas encore être là ou alors il est aussi court que vous.

Hey te moque pas. On est pas petit, c'est vous tous qui n'êtes pas à la bonne taille c'est tout.
Mène moi à Cassandre s'il te plait, que je sois au moins avec un visage familier.

Yes my Lady

Jouant légèrement des coudes tout en restant très courtois, Sebastian aida Cira à se frayer un chemin jusqu'à sa marraine et...son oncle ? Mais que faisait-il donc là lui ? Il lui avait pourtant dit qu'il ne voulait pas y assister. Enfin bref passons, il était là c'était le principal et elle se dépêcha d'engloutir les quelques pas qui les séparaient d'elle.

Bonjour ma Duchesse. Tu vas bien ? Dis pourquoi Sernays il est planté devant mon oncle ?

Cira fit un sourire à tout le monde et observa le garde du corps de la Duchesse avant de laisser tomber l'affaire et de reporter son attention sur Cassandre.

Finalement je suis restée sur le premier choix. Tu avais raison pour l'autre robe.

----------------------------------------------------------

Strasbourg, unknown to the girl who had yet made the trip up to her and tried not to get lost city.
Standing in front of a mirror, the girl looked, giving a final brush through her long hair. It was perfect. Do not bring shame to the family, not to shame the man who had asked her presence.
Leaving his post of observation, Cira went to the side table and grabbed the small box that was there. From there, she pulled out a collar and gently placed it around his neck before returning to the mirror and look at the effect given. It was not too bad and combined with collar dress showcased her blue eyes.

Small shots were hit against the door of his room and the young Raveline left the room. It was time to go.
Followed closely by Sebastian, the handyman of his uncle, Cira left the inn where she moved to climb a notch and be guided instead of crowning.

It's okay, I'm okay? You tight my dress huh? And then you rest well with me, do not you leave me alone and anyway if you do everything I say to Uncle.

Shaking the head butler. Yes it is, yes it was pretty tight even if it is not his job and yes it still will not let her. If he had been sent here it was to ensure that nothing would happen to the girl.

Before dumb responses that were still answers, Cira relaxed slightly and turned his head towards the small window of the coach. How many people are there? Who would he? These questions congregated in the spirit of the young girl of 11 years.

And then the boat stopped and Sebastian went down first in order to extend his hand and thus help put feet on the ground in turn.
A hand on the forearm of his bodyguard / chaperone, the girl entered the Cathedral and the crowd swept look.

Sebastian, he'll have to be my eyes. I'm too small to see who is present or not with the crowd. You see my godmother? Or Lothar?

Hmm ... yes I seem to see the Duchess. At least her red dress, the parade that you spoke to me and .... oh no it is not ... wait for it ... ah! She is here! Yes indeed it was not her at all. Hmm ... by cons I do not see the young Prince. It should not still be there or it is as short as you.

Hey not laugh. It is not small, it is you who are not the right size is everything.
Cassandra leads me please, I'm at least a familiar face.

Yes my Lady

Playing elbows slightly while remaining courteous, Sebastian Cira helped to clear a path to her godmother and her uncle ...? But what was he doing there it? He however said he would not attend. Anyway go, it was what was the principal and she hurried to swallow a few steps that separated her.

Hello my Duchess. Are you okay? Sernays say why he is standing in front of my uncle?

Cira smiled at everyone and watched the bodyguard of the Duchess before dropping the case and returning his attention to Cassandra.

Finally I stayed on the first choice. You were right about the other dress.

La carrozza, cavalcando da Ginevra, era finalmente arrivata a Strasburgo.

Si fermò solamente quando arrivò davanti alla Cattedrale.

Calò la scaletta e il Barone Imperiale Markus GianMaria Casanova, scese per prendere parte alla Cerimonia dell'Incoronazione di Sua Maestà.

Markus, entrando nella Cattedrale, cercò un posto fresco per avere un poco di sollievo dal lungo viaggio.

The carriage, riding from Geneva, had finally arrived in Strasbourg.

He stopped only when he arrived in front of the Cathedral.

Descended the ladder and the Imperial Baron Markus GianMaria Casanova, came down to take part in the Coronation Ceremony of His Majesty.

Markus, entering the Cathedral, sought a cool place to have a little relief from the long journey.

Entering the Cathedral she notice some familiar faces and greeted them before taking her seat.

Et à ses deux mirettes dégoulinantes d'amour de se fixer sur les yeux bleus marzinesque.
-« Et il est graaand... Et il est gentil... Et il a dit que j'étais sa princesseee... »

C'était pas faute de lui avoir dit qu'elle devait devenir grande brigande. Mais depuis, elle avait changé ses plans. Alix, denouveau, prévoyait de devenir princesse. C'était bien ça qu'on voulait pour elle... Mais peut-être pas bien avec ce prince là. Qu'importe ! Le mioche branle-bas-d'combat chiard françoy de surcroit pouvait aller trouver meilleure épouse. Elle le lui dirait, à Yolanda, qu'elle voulait sa vie avec Lothar. C'était pas tout les jours qu'on trouvait la personne qu'il fallait. Maman elle avait jamais réussi, d'ailleurs. Bien regardez ce qu'elle est devenu : Morte, très exactement. Elle est morte.

-« Marzina... »
Elle se mord la lèvre ce qui laissait à présager qu'elle allait poser une épineuse question.
-« Pourquoi elle aimait pas papa? »

_______________________________________

-« And you'll see. He’s the most beautiful! His name is Lothââââr ... »
And both peepers dripping love set on Marzina’s black eyes.
-« And he is taaaaall ... And he is nice ... And he said I was his princeeeess ... »

It was not for lack of telling him that she became robber. But then, she had changed her plans. Alix, again, planned to become princess. It was what she’ll be expected to ... But maybe not really with this prince. Who cares! The prince Blanc-Combaz might wait. He is just a kid. Moreover, he’s french! She would tell to Yolanda she wants to live her whole life with Lothar. It was not every day that you can find the right person for you. Mom hadn’t ever succeeded elsewhere. Besides Mum didn't suceed to. Look what she was become : dead, exactly. She died.

-« Marzina ... »
She bites her lip, which can say that she wants to ask a thorny question.
-« Why didn’t she love daddy? »

Then saw that the young journalist go toward a lady in red. Eriti observed that drees for a few minutes, and she thought that was a very marvelous dress.

While everyone waited for the arrival of the Emperor and the Empress, Eriti looked the people that entered in the Cathedral, thinking of how shameless some people can be sometimes.

C'est dans l'une d'elle qu'elle finissait de se préparer.
Dans une chambre à côté sa cousine devait également se préparer et la jeune Baronne ne voulait pas la faire attendre.
Jusqu'au dernier moment elle avait longuement hésiter sur la tenue qu'elle porterait, mais, bien qu'elle n'aimait pas être remarqué et surtout que ses rondeurs soient mises en avant, son choix fût le choix du coeur, tant elle aimait la robe.

Aidé d'une jeune camériste, elle s'habilla et se fit coiffer avant de passer autour de son cou un magnifique collier en perles ou pendait un rubis en forme de coeur.

Une fois prête, elle sortit rejoindre Noellia et ensembles les deux cousines prirent un coche pour se rendre à la Cathédrale.

Arrivées sur place, les deux cousines, la grande blonde et la petite brune, entrèrent dans le bâtiment ou déjà plusieurs personnes se trouvaient, dont certaines connaissances de la Baronne.

As always the smile of Philippa was clouded by a small vein of pain.

In the past couple of days he traveled from Leiden to Straßbourg. There was a lot of work to be done in Holland but he can not be absent at the coronation of his holy Emperor.

In the cathedral he see Karanda en Petrus. Both important persons in Holland. He wave at them and take a seat and wait till the coronation started[/i]

Leonardo era presente in Cattedrale non in qualità di Ambasciatore Imperiale, bensì come Aquila (soldato) Imperatoris. Fu molto sorpreso nel vedere il suo conterraneo Antonio Barberini presente nella cerimonia. Vide che gli stava venendo incontro, così con un cenno del capo lo salutò e gli sorrise. Stando in guardia ai lati della porta, non poteva permettersi distrazioni come chiacchiere o allontanamento dalla sua postazione...

Leonardo was present in the Cathedral not as imperial ambassador, but as Aquila (soldier) Imperatoris. He was very surprised to see his countryman Antonio Barberini present in the ceremony.

"Drive Us to the Cathedral."

The order had come, the Heights were ready to leave.

Gear pitch horses began to move out from the Imperial Palace, the Group was greeted by screams and applause of the people who were shouting joyful Emperor, many waved white handkerchiefs in greeting for the cab, prendevan mothers on their children to make sure they could see that awaited passage. Ranian and his Captains with watchful eyes you ensured that all were well and that nothing disturb this moment
_________________

Karanda de Mérode de Ligne had left the inn where she resided early this morning. She had stayed there with the other delegates of the county of Holland, however her appearance in the Cathedral would be as a member of the Church. Lately she been more and more in doubt whether she still was the right representative. Her predecessors had been great men. The holy Sjnoel, monsignor Sonho, and father Leopold who had even been a Cardinal in his glory days. She felt unfit to step into their footsteps. The difficulty was that there were little others left.

For her the Church had been a path which she had taken by little more then coincidence. Had her husband still been alive or had her daughter Mathildis not gone missing while she was still little, then who knew what her place in life would be today? She struggled to balance out the love for her children with their own difficult choices with her duties to the Church. Not to think of her own temptations who tried to lure her from the path which she had been following such a long period of time. She missed to sign of Jah, the calming feeling which his love had given her in the past. She had felt nervous by the events in Holland, not knowing what to expect. What life would throw at her next. Ever since she had woke up from the coma she had been in, her existence had been filled with surprises. Some good, others well, not so much. She tried to ban these thoughts from her mind. The unrest, the personal problems, the rumours about a new uprising, the tense relations in Holland. Today had to be a joyful event. First the coronation and afterwards the joust in which her co-council lady Winterstorm van den Kasteele would present herself as her champion.

As she walks on the stairs of the Cathedral she tries to forget these thoughts and focus on the ceremony at hand. Her hand softly follows the fabric of her robe, smoothening some imaginary folds. It was the first time she would have to act as Vice-Primate, and in all honesty she would give half her county to be somewhere else. However ceremonies such as these were one of the responsibilities which came with the office and she would just have to pass them trough with dignity and pride. So she greets the other Vice-Primats, the Primate and other dignitaries with a little forced enthusiasm and makes sure to keep an eye on the Primate for further instructions.

C'est rare que je me pavane. Mais aujourd'hui je suis le paon avec la queue la plus colorée et le plumage du bleu le plus profond! Si ce n'est que je suis toute de orange vêtue! Certes! J'ai pas encore vu les tenues des autres femmes, mais c'est certain que la mienne rendra folle de jalousie! Et si elle ne rend pas toutes ces dames folle de jalousie, au moins je sais que Luisa sera… verte!

Non, non , je ne suis pas idiote. Je sais très bien que la Princesse portera sans doute une robe dont la somme totalisera celle de tous les atours de ma modeste garde-robe, mais je sais aussi que Luisa rêve de porter une création signée Armelle! Et qui c'est qui se pavane pas dans son « Armelle Originale »,?

C'est bibi! Il faudra d'ailleurs que je pense à remercier Yolanda encore une fois pour cette tenue!

Mais tout ne s'arrête pas là! Non, non! Je suis ici investie d'une mission de la plus haute importance! Je suis ici en tant qu'envoyée spéciale du journal impérial à la recherche de potins! À l'affut des robes les plus laides comme des plus belles. Les femmes ne le savent pas encore, mais elles feront peut-être la une du prochain numéro : Raté et réussite du couronnement impérial. Quoi faire et ne pas faire.

Coucou papa! que je lance en agitant la main lorsque j'entre dans la cathédrale.

Et voilà Eriti qui passe près de moi!

Bonjiorno Eriti! que je lance dans mon italien sommaire.

Et une fois à l'intérieur? Je vagabonde. Je me pavane. J'observe. Je suis à l'affut. Je vous ai à l'oeil, tous autant que vous êtes! Surtout toi Luisa!

ENGLISH

I don't usually like to show off. But today I'm the brightest peacock of them all! Of course, I haven't seen everyone's dresses, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to make lots of Ladies jealous. Or, at least I'll make the princess sooo jealous that it will compensate for the other who won't notice this perfectly seed dress. An "Armelle Original".

I mean… I know the princess' dress will be worth at least three or four of my dresses, but Armelle's got it, you gotta admit it! Dressed in orange I have all the self-confidence necessary to compete with my best friend Luisa von Frayner. I'm pretty sure people tomorrow won't say : Have you seen the princess' dress! She should be the one dressing her lady in wanting, not the contrary!" Oh Yes, you might know that also. I'm helping the grand master with the dresses! Not for the coronation, but for the dance.

But today! Oooh toooodayyy! I'm here with a very special mission! I'm the Special Correspondent of the Imperial Newspaper! Here to collect every gossip, analyze every style! 'Cause that's what I do man.

Coucou Papa! I say, when I enter the cathedral he is harding. Still workin'…
[ENG: Hey Daddy!]

Bonjiorno Eriti! I add with a smile when I see my colleague not far away.

And once inside? Well I look around. Try to notice some nice dresses. I keep an eye on all of you! Especially you Luisa… Oh yeah, I keep an eye on you.

She was late, she was always late.
Eriti left her office at the Imperial Palace after sent the last letter for that day.
The ceremony will be start soon, and she was still in the Palace.

At the entrance a chariot with the insignes of Soliera, waiting for her. She entered in it and gave the order to go.
The streets of the Capital were full of people. Everyone directed to the Cathedral.

Eriti looked them and the memories goes to another ceremony, another Cathedral. The fingers instinctively went to touch the wedding ring. Still hurts. She sighed.
Meanwhile the chariot arrived in front of the Chatedral and a page opened the door, permetting to Eriti to went out.

The woman settled the veil that covered her head, and walked to the entrace of the Chatedral, garrisoned by the Aquile. She smiled to someone she knows and entered in che church.
Her eyes took some minutes to used to the inner light, but when they can see clearly she was amazing by the decorations.

She walked slowly to the reserved area assigned to the Imperial Councillor, looking to the people already in the Church. She reconize some faces, and mentally smiled for their presence.
Finally she arrived to the area, and she smiled to the Viscountess Elein and she set down near her, waiting for the ceremony.

I entered the cathedral through the sacristy, stood beside Egal and bowed before him to show their appreciation for transmitting and smiled at him. I then stood next to him.

Magda came to the cathedral with the other eagles, today was a very important day ...

The coronation of his Emperor "Ludwig von Frayner I"

The day of the coronation of the emperor has finally come.Zeiss took his orders from the General Ranian,and he silently went to the door and stood behind it,ready to unsheathe his sword,ready to beat every single man who would hurt the emperor.

His pale eyes wide open,he guarded the cathedral's door.
_________________

Findecano had left the Principality of Mainz and its capital some days earlier. There were still some preparations to be made, so he was expected a few days ahead of the coronation itself. Johanna, the former princess of Mainz, Findecano and some others left the harbour on a ship that would bring them to the Imperial Capital. Luckily, they had quite some room on the ship as he had a lot to take with him. His best clothes for the ball, his armour and weaponry for his duty at the coronation, equipment for the hunt and a lot of things for the joust. One could not imagine how much a nobleman would need for these kind of events. Some of these things had to come all the way from Dordrecht, but he always preferred his own materials.

The journey from Mainz to Strasbourg was completed without any problems or delays, not much like his recent voyage from Holland to the principality where he now served in defence of the realm as General of the Empire. During the nights, their ships docked in the harbours of small and somewhat bigger villages along the river where they would stay in the local inn. He had been in good company on this voyage and it was a pleasure to have some time off, not having to patrol the countryside of Frankfurt or Aschaffenburg. He also looked forward to the ceremony of the coronation itself and the joust, hunt and ball afterwards. It promised to become quite an adventure.

On Thursday and Friday he had met with the Imperial Marshal and the other captains of the Aquilae Imperatoris several times to discuss the last points and now everything was finished.

On the morning of June the 1st he entered the Imperial Palace to find the Marshal, fully dressed in his ceremonial clothing and armour, ready for the day to come...

Ranian and guards were started from Imperial Palace, with them there were the captains, they would have waited for the return of General and then accompany the Imperial carriage. Upon reaching the gate to Cathedral by their horses and entered into it, just entering Ranian saw the guards chosen for Treasury difresa already in place and among them the shrine, smiled, then turned to the other guards who were with her

Guards, you all take your positions as you have informed your captains ...Jospin and Evrard, you'll be on the sides of the door of the Cathedral, in greeting and always position with eyes wide open

When she was chosen to protect the imperial treasury, the face of Mary Constance expressed great surprise. In fact in the Imperial Eagles militated for a short time.

Preparations to reach the shrine were pretty fast, and communication in the same day, towards evening, were all present on the spot to wire the situation.

Inside the sanctuary, where the imperial treasury was kept, were her, Aura and two other guards he did not know the name.

The General, calmly and precision had given commands, then placed himself at the front right side, perfect for the dress uniform blue and gold.

- At your service, General - only replied, aware that he had received an honor but also a responsibility.

He arrived in the night in a village near Strasbourg and it was cold, so he decided to search an inn where spend the last hours before the morning and the great ceremony.
"Good night Sir!" the knight said to the innkeeper "I'd like to rent a room.. a warm room I mean"
"Oh God.. do you know it's late? do you think to found a room right now?"
"Sure!"
he put several money on the desk
"I don't think simply: I claim!"
"Sir.. you're generous but.."
he threw another coin against
" Dirty usurer! With all this money I should expect to sleep with your wife in your bed, so rent me a room!"
and he beated a fist on the desk
"Y..y..yes man. I'll do it"

They walked to the room
"Where are you from Sir?"
he looked the old man and said "You dont' care WHO I'm, but you'd know where I'm from.. you angry my person not my nationality. However i'm Florentine."
"Oh Florence. I've been when i was young"
"I trust. Now go away and let me alone: you've estort my money already.. like a Florentine banker... dont' do the same with my sleep!"

Thursday, the 30th of May, 1461 - Inside the Strasbourg Cathedral

It was two days before the Coronation and the Cathedral was full of servants and helpers, who were coordinated by the sexton, under the sight of H. Em. Borromeo Galli and the Imperial officers attending the duty to prepare the big church.

All the preparations were actually at the end, but among every brocades and ornaments, candles and flowers, something maybe could be still to set up.

But there was also a matter for this need to be yet ready: in the afternoon, escorted by the Imperial Guards and some of the Councillors, the Imperial Trousseau -the crown, the sceptre, the ring and the sword- woukd have been translated into Its glass case from the Palace to the Cathedral, and that would have been part of the upcoming further ceremony.

Cleofe, Captain of Italian Aquilae Imperatoris, followed the General Ranian during the transport of Salome and treasure.
Came to the Cathedral, with the guards choices: Aura and Violet, entered in the cathedral and waited until everything was settled.

"I'll have a moment to talk about with my captains here present for the protection of the Cathedral for the day tomorrow, we will meet the carriage Salome That bring us to the Palace"
nd came to listen orders for the next day.

sono responsabile di ciò che dico, non di quello che voi capite

Thursday, the 30th of May, 1461, Evening

His Eminence had waited for the ending of the transportation of the whole Imperial Treasury, then he had blessed all the Guards resting next to the case where the Trousseau had been placed, in the presence of the Chancellor and the Leader of the whole Imperial militia.

The theca was now in the chapel on the left of the apsis, with the Imperial Guards in front of it, and nothing seemed to worry about its safeness. When the sun was going down, he prayed for the safeness of the people in defence of the Cathedral, then he let the sexton close all the doors, so the only people into the church would be the Imperial militians.

After having greeted the soldiers, the Primate took the way to the sacristy door and exited the building from there. No one could have entered the place unitl the next morning.

Friday, the 31th of May, 1461

The day before the Coronation, all the preparations were ready, so Mgr Borromeo Galli should dedicate only to the waiting of the clergy and the preparation of the Mass. The sun was shining brightly, but the weather outside the Cathedral was still a bit cooler than the usual days of May.

There was a moment of silence, following the declaim of the Creed, then the Primate spoke again

My Children in the Faith, loyal lieges of the Empire, let's stay in prayer.

After that, he continued
And now we will hear the words from the Book of Virtues, where the wise writers inspired by the Almighty reported the history and the teaching of Our Holy doctrine, from the beginning of the world through the life of the Prophets and the Saints.

and he watched towards His Eminence Borgia, the Italian Viceprimate, who went to the ambon.

It had been a while since he last showed up in public, after some troubling times he finally had to power to get back to civil lifeand see what was happening around town. The journey had become quite strange, first he just wanted to travel, then he joined someone to pick up a ship in Italy and eventually he found himself in Geneve. He hadn't expected it to go this way and was quite sad that he had to leave his wife and friends to go at war, but duty was duty even though he didn't do a single thing in the end. The food in Italy always seemed to cheer him up, but the last day in Italy hadn't done him much good. There much have been something wrong with the food or possibly with the drinks, because as soon as the group left Italy he got sick. Every day it just got a little bit worse then the day before, it was almost a miracle that he even managed to reach Geneve. The moment he stepped into the city he fell down on his knees and thanked the gods for granting him a safe entrance. The battles were already done, but the war wasn't over yet. At first he was against the war and didn't want to go, but it was his duty as an Imperial Noble to help out and there was no other way to show his support then going there personally. He was glad that he battles were done, but also sad that he couldn't have been of much help to the brave people that did have to put their life on the line. Within a few hours of arriving in the freed city he left to the monastery to recover from his illness.

A few weeks later, it was finally the time to leave the monks behind that had been taking care of him the whole time. He stepped out of the monastery and sighed deeply, he was all alone now, nobody to help him and show him the way. He went to look for a decent tavern to stay for the night and get used to the normal life again. His health had been good for a while, but it was nice and safe inside so he had stayed for a while longer. Until he received a letter about the coronation of the Emperor. Being a noble meant that an oath must be taken when there is a new Emperor and this was the time to do it, it was time to go back to Strasbourg.

After a good night of resting he started to plan his way back, it was hard to find out where to without any form of transportation. Luckily there was still some money left in his pockets and he was given some food when he left the monastery. It didn't take long or he had figured out how to get any further and thus he went, first to Strasbourg and later he would look for a way to get to Holland. He was lucky to find a farmer who needed to sell some product close to Strasbourg and could drop him off pretty close to the Cathedral. It would be just a little walk further to get to the final place where he could have some rest before the ceremony would actually start.

The day had finally arrived, it was time for the coronation of the Emperor. There was one problem that he was currently facing, what to wear? He left most of his stuff at home and didn't take much in a suticase with him to Italy. He had never done something like this before, so wasn't prepared that this would happen. Normally on a trip he would always take his suit with him, but those were businesss trips, so it would be necessary anyway. On his walk around town he met an old friend, a fellow noble, who he had a lot during the past years. The guy did take some money with him, at least more then Robin had, and wanted to help him out. They went to a local suitmaker and let a suit be tailormade for him within a few hours. It wasn't the best suit he had seen in his life, but it was nice and it would be enough for the coronation. He thanked the man a lot and they splitted there ways again. He was ready to go into the Cathedral now, but apparently he wasn't the only one. The whole entrance was blocked by people wanting to catch a glimpse of the Emperor. He manoeuvred himself through the crowd to get into the Cathedral. When inside he looked for his seat, sat down and waited for what was coming.

As always they started out with the Credo so he quietly sang along.

Credo in Deum,
Altissimum Omnipotentem,
Creatorem caeli et terrae,
Inferos et paradisi,
Ultima hora animae judicem nostrae

Et in Aristotelem, prophetam,
Nicomaqui Phaetique filium,
Missum ut sapientiam et universi
Divas leges errantibus hominibus erudiret

Credo etiam in Christum,
Natum ex Maria et Ioseph,
Vitam dedit ut nobis paradisi viam monstraret
Sic, postquam sub Pontio passus est
Propter salutem
Nostram martyr perivit
Consecutus est Solem
Ubi Aristoteles ad Altissimi dexteram eum expectabat

Credo in Divinam Actionem,
Sanctam Ecclesiam aristotelicianam, romanam, unam et indivisibilem
Sanctorum communionem,
Peccatorum remissionem,
Carnis resurrectionem
Vitam aeternam.

AMEN
