In a not so subtle effort to show off the wealth generated by the silver and gold mines in the former Inca Empire, Noble and Patrician families from across Europe are formally invited to the city of Goarvia (Lisbon) to partake in a Royal Gala and Ball, to be hosted by King Andagis Geiserico. Rumours are swirling that his younger brother, recently of marrying age, will be present, and that King Andagis will use the opportunity to seek out potential brides for the young Prince. At present, Prince Alaric Geiserico is the heir to Alanston, however Queen Zora's pregnancy will likely change that if she gives birth to a son.
The ball will be held five weeks hence, to give time for other nobles and patricians from across Europe to attend.

Re: A Royal Ball
With the time of the ball approaching, the decorations go up and everything is prepared. Before long, the foreign guests begin to arrive. Local nobles and patricians are already present, with servants going to and fro with drinks and snacks. Neither the Prince nor King are present, though Queen Zora and her attending ladies are present, seated at the dais, observing the room with two guards present.
Soon the trumpet would sound out from the entrance, as the foreign guests are announced. The herald would call out each person's name, then pause as they enter, before continuing with the next. Additional guests do not bear titles would not be announced.
"From Ireland, introducing the chief of Clan MacCarthy. The Chief of Clan FitzGerald. The Chief of Clan MacLoughlin. The Chief of Clan O'Connor. From Scotland, the Chief of Clan Douglas. The Chief of Clan Wallace. The Chief of Clan MacKenzie. The Chief of Clan MacLeod." The herald would pause, before continuing.
"From the English Channel Union, King George II of England. King Louis XV from France. Sir Williams. The Duke of Cornwall, Aquitaine and Britanny, and Commissioner of New Europe, Joseph III, son of Imperial Joseph II. The Duchess of York and New Brittany, Isabell. The Duchess of Sussex and New England, Kate, daughter of King George. The Duchess of Normandy and New France, daughter of King Louis XV. The herald would pause yet again, before announcing the Italians.
"From the Grand Serene Republic of Italy, Duke Amedeo IV of Savoy and Corsica. Archduke Francesco Andrea Sforza-Visconti of Milan. Crown Prince Ludovico d'Altavilla of Naples. Radolfo Ranieri, Count of Ragusa. Cardinal Fabrizio Colonna from the Papal States and Bishrop of Trento. Andrea II Doria from the Superb Republic of Genoa. Silvestro Piccolomini from Venice. Enrico de Pazzi from Tuscany. Ruggiero Corradini from Amalfi."
The guests would be free to mingle around for the time being.
About half an hour after the guests are announced, the herald also announces another guest. "Inca Princess Pachakutiq Jaillita." As eyes turn to look, a young Inca lady would enter the courts, having been living in Europe receiving an education. After entering, she would begin making her way to the Queen on the Dais.
