His Holiness Catholicos-Patriarch of All Kartlis, Kallistrate II
Statement of the Kartlian Apostolic Autocephalous Orthodox Church on the Death of Pope Augustine XII
The Kartlian Church as a whole shares the grief that afflicts the Cyretian Copts, and pray that the God of all mercy may receive Pope Augustine in his joy, his peace and light. His Holiness wishes to express his solidarity with the Cyretian people in this difficult period. We look to the continuance of the work Pope Augustine XII by his successor in strengthening the ecumenical ties with all the churches in the region, with the hope also of holding a summit for the religious leaders, Christians and Muslims, in the region. We offer also the heartfelt prayers of faithful Christians in Kartlis for the repose of the soul of Augustine, as well as all those servants of the Church who have died.
O God of spirits and of all flesh, Who hast trampled down death and overthrown the Devil, and given life to Thy world, do Thou, the same Lord, give rest to the souls of Thy departed servants in a place of brightness, a place of refreshment, a place of repose, where all sickness, sighing, and sorrow have fled away. Pardon every transgression which they have committed, whether by word or deed or thought. For Thou art a good God and lovest mankind; because there is no man who lives yet does not sin, for Thou only art without sin, Thy righteousness is to all eternity, and Thy word is truth.
For Thou are the Resurrection, the Life, and the Repose of Thy servants who have fallen asleep, O Christ our God, and unto Thee we ascribe glory, together with Thy Father, who is from everlasting, and Thine all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever unto ages of ages. Amen.

After receiving Shayma’s call, Krystafer Cardinal Mzali had cleared his afternoon schedule and rushed to the Palace. He has his own suspicions about the reason for the Crown Princess’ sudden need for confession. He had already heard rumours of the machinations surrounding the selection of electors for Pope Augustine XII’s successor. He had, in fact, just spoken with the office of Vatican Secretary of State about the matter. Of course, Rome would not interfere in the election of another church’s leader, but as one of the historic, Apostolic Sees, along with Rome, there was tremendous interest in the Vatican about the selection of the person to fill that See. Especially, since whoever Augustine XII’s successor would be, he would almost immediately face the same political crisis that had been defined the late-pope’s reign.
The Cardinal considered all this as he approached the door to the Crown Prince’s and Princess’ Royal Apartment.

“Your Eminence, it seems we always meet in difficult times” said Irene, approaching to him to kiss his ring. “Thank you for coming, my dear friend.”
They had now known each other for over five years and Irene had grown very fond of the cardinal, seeing in him a man of integrity and, quite important as well, someone in whom she could trust.
“I suspect you know why I called you”, Irene smiled, almost embarrassed. “It’s quite disagreeable to discuss this so soon after His Holiness’ passing, but we must. The Coptic Pope is the leader of the main religion in Cyretopolitania; whoever takes the pontifical throne of Cyretia will influence millions and will set the tone on relations with other religious groups. I know of a certain person, who whispers to the King’s ear, who will try to influence the election of Pope Augustine’s successor, and not to a good result. I’m worried, Your Eminence, I don’t want my children to live in a divided country, but I feel helpless. How can we convince the King that Count Azenfar is a bad influence? Maybe my family could help us. My brother, the King of Brasland, could talk to His Majesty and tell him what is happening, or maybe my great aunt Princess Alexandra could help us unmask Azenfar. She worked for the New Chalcedonian intelligence services for decades and has been a behind-the-scenes influence in Brasland for years. I can’t think of anything else that we could do and it frustrates me that we’ve reached to this point. I don’t understand why the King still trusts that man, doesn’t he see the danger that Azenfar’s growing power poses to the Crown?”
