Darius Rex, by grace and right of arms overlord and rightful monarch of Ar n-Eilean-ne, Lyndhaven, Malagentia, Panther Vale, Dragonship Haven, Bridge, Smoking Rocks, Settmour Swamp, Caer Adamant, and Sovereign King of all the lands of the East, to all those that these present letters shall hear or see, greeting.

Since human memory is short and does not suffice for a crowd of things, the authority of those who preceded our age, the divine emperors and kings, has decreed that those things were to be written down which the progress of fleeting time generally removes from the knowledge of men.

Wherefore let the generality of the present as well as the future subjects of our Kingdom know, that beloved and faithful subject and servant Morgan Christian Santiago Igantius Jesus Mendoza de Clarens de Palencia de Cotes-du-Nord de Navarre y de Villarquemada, by grace of God and the Crown of the East Sire de Sainte Claire, Companion of the Order of the Maunche, Companion of the Order of the Silver Crescent, Baron of the Royal Court, Baron and Dread Overlord of Our lands called Dragonship Haven, and Peer of our Realm, has well pleased us in all respects, especially in the noble and gracious manner in which he maintains himself and his house, the dignity with which he serves as the voice of the Crown on varied and diverse occasions, and by the high standard which he keeps for himself and presents to this our realm in all things and so we do hereby confirm in him again all the perquisites belonging and appertaining to those ranks, rights, and titles thus far conferred upon him by Ourselves and Our right noble and royal predecessors, and affirm again that all the honors, graces, concessions, preeminence, prerogatives, immunities and other things, or any of them, which are due to him, by virtue of his current rank and station, are to be observed completely, so that nothing be diminished; and decree that the Princes, Dukes, Counts, Knights, Great Masters, and Captains of the Military Orders; and our Counselors, Judges, and other Officers of Justice whatsoever; and Constables of Castles, Strong Houses, and others; and all Seneschals, Bailiffs, Governors, and Guild-masters; and the Aldermen, Common Council, Officers, and Good People of all Cities, Lands, Baronies and Provinces, Shires, Cantons and Freeholds, and all places in our Kingdoms and Dominions, shall make no objection to this, or any part of it, nor suffer it to be made; forasmuch as we from this time forward, by this our letter, bestow on him the additional dignity of COMPANION OF THE KING'S ORDER OF EXCELLENCE, forever; and we put him into possession of the said offices, and of every one of them, and full power to use and exercise them, and to receive the perquisites and salaries belonging to them, or any of them, as is traditional for holders of this dignity in these our Eastern lands.

Concerning all which things, if it be requisite, and he shall desire it, we command Brigantia, and our other officers and clerks to pass, seal, and deliver unto him the true records of all those such letters of privilege as are rightfully due him, in such form and legal manner as he shall require or stand in need of. And wishing this most present privilege to remain valid for him unto all his posterity, we forbid by an imperial edict that any one, with rash daring, infringe it or in any way attempt to violate it; and we validly corroborate this our decree, signed by the golden seal of our Majesty, the witnesses being written down who were present at this deed. Done this 20th day of the month of April, in the lands called Dragonship Haven.
