Line 75:
Constantine IX then turned to Estos to deal with an uprising of Aurean funded rebel groups, of which amongst them were the successors to Hanor, the possessor of the "Holy Eastern Emperor." In a swift martial campaign, Constantine IX in his old age decisively defeated the rebel groups and Pope Clement acknowleged the exchange of the "Holy Eastern Emperor" title to Constantine IX. At the turn of the Stefanic century in 300 AS, the Pope crowned Constantine IX as the first Holy Graalian Emperor, a successor title to surpass that of Constantine VI's title of Caesar.
=== Death and Funeral ===
Constantine, the Emperor whose reign symbolized an era of transformative reforms, passed away on November 28th, 311 AS at Stenhammer Palace. He had gone to Stenhammer on the 26th of November intending to take a break, but his deteriorating health, evident from early November, prompted Chief Herald Loggail to urgently summon members of the House of Vasa and the [[Prime Minister]] to the palace on the 28th of November around 6PM EST.
By the time the dignitaries arrived on the 28th around 6:30PM EST, Constantine had already succumbed to his condition at 6:44 PM EST, prior to their presence. According to sources, the first attendees were his wife, his son [[John, Prince of Kiev]] and the future [[Carolus XIII Vasa]]. The House of Vasa officially declared his passing at 7:11 PM EST on the same day by a press release in all Realms through Sarovia Pathe. Constantine IX's demise marked the end of an era in the empire's history, initiating a period of mourning and transition. His death left a significant void in the leadership and signaled a pivotal moment for the empire's future course. The funeral continues to be planned.
