My Lords and Ladies,
I present myself : Erich, Frei Herr von G. ; I came to you as the new ambassador of Savoy, successor of Sir Phaco.
I hope to get soon the keys of my embassy ; I admit that I’ve been losing a lot of time, lost in the Labyrinth of those many forums !
The Duke, the Council, the Savoyard diplomatic corps and our Chamberlain wish you a happy new year 1455. May the Only One guide you in your tasks and give to your country peace as well as prosperity.
We hope that this year will be synonymous of increased bonds of friendship between our two regions. Moreover, we beg you to accept those plates, filled with the greatest Savoyard specialities !
