A lovely early spring morning brought sunshine to Ambri's Sister Graduation, an end on a long and winding road for the Demoiselle.
Once the distinguished Admin and special guests had taken their seats up on the stage, and Ambri was brought forth by her Mentoring Sister, Gillian welcomed all.
"Honored guests, welcome all to this joyous event, for today we come together to witness the Graduation of Demoiselle Ambri , who will join the exclusive ranks of the Roissy Val d'Oise Sisterhood.
"It is with some sadness that we bid farewell to this Demoiselle as she leaves her path and joins the ranks of Sisters. Her path does not end here it is ever evolving.
"As a sister she will continue to be active within Samois, serve as mentor and guide to the Demoiselles and Debutantes."
Maitre Dusty gave the opening speech giving everyone a very important reminder, "The path of a submissive is not easy. There are many hurdles but if it were easy, anyone could, and many would, do it. Because we expect a little more from our submissives, we see them falter often, some return admirably and some, well, not so much.
"I find great pleasure in seeing these debuatantes come to us, stay with the program, blossom and grow In both knowledge and skill As they work through the tasks laid out before them. They not only grow Into beautiful flowers, they give back as they contribute to us all as individuals and the greater community.."
Following Maitre Dusty, Annie, as Samois Sister, was called upon as a representataive of the House of Samois to also welcome everyone. "It takes courage and fortitude to make it through each and every phase. Our sisters must look within to find their submissive heart to give to Our Doms.They must face their own demons and discover their limits. They must learn how to communicate their needs and tell others what they are. They must discover the gifts that Our Doms and sisters offer to each other, They must find their place and value in Our community," she told us.
Three members of our famille were invited to speak on Ambri's behalf. The first was her personal friend, Swan, whom playfully called Ambri her "bratty little sister," but went on to share endearing sentiment on their friendship.
Maitre Taylor was the second famille member to speak on Ambri's behalf as the Maitre who took her through her Sister Final. He teased her of being in all her "hyperactive glory," going on to praiser her about over her "meticulous preparation" and "being a champion of roleplay, though he muttered that he had to remind her who was in charge due to her eagerness.
"Through out the whole training process , bri responded with intelligence, obedience, courage, forethought and above all, submission. She gave it her all and herself to me. So I ask you, famille, is this not what we seek from a prospective sister?............I think it so."
The third person to speak on Ambri's behalf was Xanadu as her Mentoring Sister. Xanadu shared that Ambri showed "determination" on her submissive training path and was a "good hearted woman," who was also "an avid shopper, reader, photographer and is very knowledgeable about scripting just to name a few," ending with a recommendation for Sisterhood.
Acceptance Into The Sisterhood
"Maitre Rene, said Gillian, “You have heard the recommendations of Maitre Taylor and the warm support given to that recommendation of Xanadu. May I invite you now, to confer on Demoiselle Ambri the title and the ring of Sisterhood?"
“Thank you Gillian,” said Maitre René. He studied the Demoiselle kneeling on the cushion to his right as he considers the recommendations he has heard. He glanced at the other Maitres on the stage, nods his head and smiles to each before looking out to those assembled.
“The day of Sister Graduation is very special for our community.” He looks back at the girl kneeling. “The recommendations I've heard for Demoiselle Ambri are good. I give permission to continue with the proceedings/“
Gillian called Ambri to kneel before Maitre René. He watched the girl kneel and smiles at her before he stands looking out to the audience.
“Thank you all for coming here today to support and celebrate in Demoiselle Ambri’s Sister Graduation.” His fingers search a pocket for his old, worn, leather journal. Finding it, he pulls it free, flips it open to the page with "Ambri" written at the top and reads the notes that he has made throughout her journey. He then speaks ....
“In trying to find the words that I might begin with, I found these were the thoughts I brought along…” He gestures to Ambri. “Sometimes the road is long and winding, and along it can be many detours. Perhaps what matters most is that no matter how many detours are taken is that the traveler finds their way back home.
He looks down at Ambri and smiles kindly. She smiles back.
“Glad you were able to find your way back home Ambri. From now on just keep walking the road around our estate and you won’t get lost again.” He smiles teasingly at her and runs his hand over the top of her head. She closes her eyes at his touch and grins.
“Well now,’ he continues. “ You see here before you a sincere submissive. One who is willing to give her full devotion to the path of training we offer. Let me share with you Ambri’s achievements on her journey here at Roissy Val d’Oise.
“Demoiselle Ambri has had quite a journey thus far…. She initially began as a Debutante on September 30, 2013, undergoing her Demoiselle Initiation on October 24, 2013.
“The following spring, Ambri left Roissy Val d'Oise on April 20, 2014 and traveled down that long and winding road full of detours.” He looks at her and smiles. “ She returned to Roissy Val d'Oise on August 20, 2015 and was re-accepted into the Submissive Training Path. She re-entered the path as a Debutante on August 24, 2015 and underwent her second Demoiselle Initiation on September 21, 2015.
“Ambri has showed great dedication this second time by continuing on the Submissive Training Path eager to learn and absorb.
“November 3, 2015 she presented her Sister Workshop on — "Fear" … an interesting workshop, giving some food for thought.
“On December 18, 2015, Ambri presented her Sister Event, A Midsummer Night's Dream Masquerade Ball, at which our community had a fun time wearing a hud that blocked out all names and titles. Very clever Ambri.” Rene smiles at her. “ Continuing forward in leaps and bounds, she has completed her tasks and prepared for her Sister Final, which was given to her by Taylor and, whose recommendation for acceptance into our Sisterhood you have already heard.
“Please let me remind you that the Final Task is a test of a Demoiselle's Submission based upon her strengths and weaknesses; : it is no easy task, but a challenge, one that pushes the submissive and brings her to the core of her surrender and is a challenge for every girl.
“Ambri, you have proved the depth of your submission competently and have arrived at the day of your Sister Graduation. With pleasure I will bestow upon you the prestigious title of Roissy Val d’Oise Sister and give you your special ring.”
Rene looks to the audience. “ You have heard Demoiselle Ambri’s journey that brings her here today, a day eagerly looked forward to. Her commitment that has brought her here is an inspiration for all debutantes who still have their own journey to complete.”
Rene slides his fingers inside his vest pocket and pulls out a ring. “ Please hold out your hand Ambri.” He reaches for her hand and positions the ring just at the tip of her ring finger after she unclasps her fingers from behind her.. still trembling and holds one arm out. palm down and smiles up at him. He smiles. The morning sunlight makes the gold band shine. He looks in her eyes and smiles warmly.
“Let this ring be a reminder of your dedication to Roissy Val d’Oise and the honor you have now achieved.”
He slides the shiny gold ring into place on her finger and she smiles, trying to not cry. Taking her hand in both of his, leans forward, saying quietly, “I welcome you into the Roissy Val d’Oise Sisterhood. Sister Ambri, my wish is that you will nurture and guide others along the way on their own journeys to our Roissy Val d'Oise Chateau.”
Standing, Maitre Rene takes up a champagne glass and lifts it in the air. “Famille and friends join with me now in toasting our newest Sister. Congratulations Sister Ambri! Cheers!”
Congratulations and cheers erupted in the garden and once quieted down, Maitre Rene told Gillian to give Ambri her rightful title, after which Gillian reminded us the qualities special to a sister, "To become a sister of Roissy Val d’ Oise a submissive has to have many qualities, some are as follows: To be Trustworthy, Graceful, Loyal, Humble, Obedient, Enduring, and Patient. ........and remain submissive no matter how hard that may be," and then invited Ambri to speak.
Ambri thanked all her friends, and those members of our community and famille who helped her along the way, confiding that "Some days were great.. some i wanted to throw my hands up and quit .. but my wonderful sister and great friends i have acquired over the years wouldn't let me.. laughs my own sis threaten to beat me if i left. So on those days i felt like i couldn't go any farther i trudged on.. one foot in front of the other. letting my friends and the light at the end of the tunnel guide me. Now i stand here."
When Ambri finished, Gillian spoke and then invited Maitre Rene to give the closing speech.
René stands, smoothing down the front of his vest and smiles at the audience. “I did read Ambri's journey,” he said, “and as you all saw, Roissy Val d'Oise takes this serious. We do not give free titles. We train our people and reward them for all the hard work and their loyal devotion to us.
“Sister Ambri, it is with pleasure to call you a Sister of Roissy Val d’ Oise. As you reflect on your past and the future ahead of you, may you do so with the knowing that your life at Roissy Val d'Oise will always be remembered as something near and precious to your heart. And know… today… right now one important thing… You did it! You have accomplished a second important milestone!
“Now you stand as Sister, and a new path stretches before you… A path that leads to O Aspirante. It is my wish that you will continue forward with dedication and work toward that you must not let anything detour you from taking this next step. Know that you still have much to learn and don’t be afraid to do just that trust that you will learn and that there will be future obstacles to overcome. Maybe some mistakes but trust that you will learn from these. Success comes through learning and learning comes through doing.”
Maitre René smiles at her, then turns and moves to the middle of the stage. acing the audience, his eyes scan the crowd, he nods his head, as his focus rises up to the tree-tops.
“The season changes now as spring courts us like a silly school boy. The heart of the school boy knows what he wants. So I ask each of you to know what it is you want. Do you want this home… this community… this family? The time has truly come for you to claim these as your own. Don’t wait. Instead take ownership of our home… care for it as if you are the one responsible for keeping it in a healthy state.
“Emersh yourself into our community and participate please. Find the way in which you can participate above and beyond just coming here to socialize, find your helpful place. In doing so, you help to shoulder the responsibilities to help keep our community events running smooth or to offer something new for us to experience together. Know in your heart that you ARE a member of our family.
“I ask each of you that today please begin to look at one another as just that and care take one another in the way you need to be taken care of. Protect our home. Secure your place in the community.” He looks at them all and add ........ take care of one another and each other and be kind to all guests who visit, treating them as a potential future member of our famile. These are the things I ask of you now.”
His eyes move from face to face. “I hope you have heard my message clearly.” He smiles. “Thank you, all of you, for your company here today,” continued Maitre Rene. He gives them all a smile, nods his head, then turns and leaves the stage.
