With no banner to unite beneath.
But by the grace of Aemar the All-Father.
There came a heart of fire and truest gold to unite them.
Deremere of Dekmar Alder.
Of the Dekmire of Old.
By his Steward was he crowned.
By the love and will of his people he was anointed.
To honor their struggle, their sacrifice, their glory.
I anoint you now.
In the name of Aemar All-Father.
In the name of Ellicia of Old.
And in the name of Deremeres Legacy.
No more are you the guided.
You are now the guide.
You stand now as Deremere in his Honor.
I name you Griffon of the West.
And King of All Dekmire.
Blessed be your reign."
