The Emperor's body in its flag draped coffin has lay in state in the Imperial Basilica since the building was retaken from the rebels. Now it is being moved from Antioch to Troyes Paria where the formal funeral will take place
World leaders, perhaps one of the largest gatherings of them for years, have begun arriving at the Imperial Palace. Cannons have been brought out on to the lawn and the many flag poles in the Citadel remain at half mast. Soon the procession will arrive.

The Great gates of the citadel open to the funeral procession. Heading the column is the Master of the Horse carrying a lance with a large Roylaiian flag flying from it.
He is immediately followed by a company of the Imperial Horse Guards in their Dragoon dress uniform.
The many cannons begin their salute firing blanks.
Once the Horse guards have passed through the next company of troops is from the Imperial Foot Guards dressed in the Grenadiers dress uniform of the Old Guard.
The Emperor's coffin rests upon a gun carriage drawn by 16 horses and well decorated. The former Emperor's family follow the carriage on foot and behind them other nobility and heads of state.
Following close behind is a contingent of the Cathucovian Knights, their distinctive graphene armour and blue eagle markings denote them as the Emperor's personal household bodyguard. Different battalions from each of the Imperial service branches follow with units from the Imperial army, Imperial Airforce and Imperial Navy.
The airforce also organised a fly over of a series of fighters and bombers.
The procession forms up before the steps of the Imperial palace and carefully the select pall-bearers lift the coffin and take it inside the great hall of the Imperial Palace while the palace guards watch, resting on arms reversed.

The Guests assume their seats and a non religious sermon is given, respecting the myriad assortments of religions held by the world leaders (fear not, if yโall said your leaders would show I wonโt force you to post)
Various members of the Imperial family give emotional eulogies with the impact from the late Emperorโs widow and finally from his son and now Emperor Louis XVI
Guests receive the opportunity to pay their respects before refreshments and assorted cheeses are served in the adjacent room.
The Emperor expresses his gratitude to the great heads of state, heads of government and other representatives who have journeyed from across the world to pay tribute to his father. Especially to those who sent support during the recent civil war.
