Edit 4/8/17: Forgot to make this open for anyone to come in and apply. Whoops.
Salve,
In celebration of the defeat of the malicious coalition of totalitarian states known as the Third Solution, the Caspian League will be holding a Victory Ball. We courteously invite fellow world leaders to attend and revel with us.
The Ball will be held on April 15th starting at 6:00 PM, in the Andouin Citadel of Caelestiam City. Highlights of the Victory Ball include a banquet (complete with a fully stocked, traditional Caelestian Xizusanza Bar - ask for further information) and special guest performances by some of the League's greatest musicians. The Citadel gates open at 6:00 PM and close at 2:00 PM. If you would like to stay overnight, please specify upon entry and guest quarters will be prepared for you and your party.
Dress code is formal; both men and women are required to come in full military dress uniform, formal court dress, or modest, polished evening dress.
The following items are prohibited:
- Swords, knives, dirks, or any sort of bladed weapon.
- Maces, cudgels, clubs, or any sort of blunt weapon.
- Firearms of any sort.
- Explosives.
- Dresses with long trains (as these may possibly trip fellow attendees).
Though the Citadel will be heavily guarded throughout the night, you are permitted to bring a small security detail, and this is recommended should you elect to leave the Citadel and travel around Caelestiam City.
Attached to this invitation is a schedule of events, a menu of food to be served at the banquet, and noteworthy individuals that will be present.
We hope to see you at the ball.
