Majesties: We are going to have a small ceremony marking the passing of Blessed Queen Katarina Vukcic-Kosaca in Svet Stjepan, at the Castle. All Royal persons are of course invited. The Ambassador in Rome will lay flowers as is traditional on October 25th, at the tomb of Blessed Queen Katarina Vukcic-Kosaca in the Aracoelli Church in Rome.
There will be a Mass said,in the main church in Sveti Stjepan and in the evening a gathering at the Castle. There is also a short film about her life and times which will be shown in the main theatres of all Zahumljani cities on that date free of charge to all who wish to go see it. Donations will be taken to be used feeding the poor, but no fee will be charged for admission.
Best Wishes

Majesty, this is a TERRIBLE misunderstanding, the Blessed Queen Katarina Vukcic-Kosaca this event was for is not myself!

She is a revered ancestress of the Royal House of Zahumlje. We mark the anniversary of her passing with commemorations because prior to ourself, She was the last Queen of Zahumlje. It is right to mark her passing, and celebrate her remarkable life, and it is an important day to remind Zahumljani of the unity of all peoples who constitute the Nation of Zahumlje. Her family had members of every Constituant Nationality of Zahumlje, for this reason alone she is important, but more than that was the example of grace, courage, dedication, selflessnes, and learning she set for ALL Zahumljani, but particularly for Zahumljani womanhood, for us Zahumljani, she is a figure comparable to Queen Elizebeth I of England, or Queen Mary of Scotland, or Queen Jadwiga of Poland, or perhaps Queen Jelena of Croatia. She is a very greatly esteemed figure in our history and our memories.
(ooc: She was beatified and IRL I'm campaigning for her recognition as a saint in the Catholic Church.)

As far as our own personal condition, we have had grippe rather badly, and do not feel very well, however we are not dead or even in danger of it so far as We know.
Thanks for all the good wishes.
Best Wishes
Katarina of Zahumlje
