"A girl?"
The Karan tried, in vain, to hide his displeasure in the presence of the Karae, who seemed, herself, to rejoice at this news.
But what did he care about a granddaughter? Yet a grandson would have ensured the continuity of his lineage, but a girl...
His son persisted in disappointing him.
"It's fantastic, isn't it Stevano! We must spread the news everywhere! Maybe a great celebration with..."
The Karan cut the Karae off a little curtly, earning himself a surprised and pained look.
"Nec! No great celebration! You'll make a procession to Jena's temple to thank her and ask her for an heir for next time. And the Karin will present his daughter himself! As for me, I've got some things to work out with my advisors."
The great news spread, despite everything, throughout the Kingdom and beyond.
The Karin Aniro and the Karaedin Nirni are pleased to announce the birth of the Karinae Aniera.
A procession will take place on 23h - Holeth, Frutor 24, 1st AC 2632*. It will leave from Yrkanis' entrance to Jena's temple. On this occasion, you can thank Jena with poems and give birth gifts.
Jena Aiye! Matis Ayie!
