                         HARLEY ~ A Sister of Roissy Val d'Oise
"Honored guests,  welcome all to this joyous event, for today we come together to witness the Graduation of Demoiselle Harley, who will join the exclusive ranks of the Roissy Val d'Oise Sisterhood."

The day of Sister Graduation is an incredibly emotional day for a submissive, for she has worked deligiently on her path.  Held in the Roissy Chateau Garden, the famille arrive in their most formal attire. All eyes are glued to the stage before them in anticipation of honoring a significant milestone of the Submissive Path Training.


July 30th was Sister Harley's special day

Amongst the Officiants of her Sister Graduation:

  • Maitre René, Roissy Val d'Oise Founder & Propriétaire
  • Dominant Supervisor:  Maitre Dusty
  • Sister Final:  Maitre Taylor
  • House of Samois :  Gillian, Adjointe de Samois, and Xanadu, Samois Sister and as Mentor
  • Special Guest Speaker: Malana, Roissy Val d'Oise Sister

After Maitre Dusty welcomes everyone, and after Xanadu speaks on behalf of House of Samois, the recommendation is made by Maitre Taylor as the one who gave Harley her Sister Final.  Maitre René tells us: "The Sister Final is a test of a Demoiselle's Submission based upon her strengths and weaknesses;  it is no easy task even for the experienced submissive but a challenge,  one that pushes the submissive and brings her a deeper core of her surrender",  reminding us of the seriousness of this milestone.

 

                         Maitre Taylor,  Harley's Sister Final

"Hello and welcome everyone, I am honored to be part of another one of our submissives completing the path that is so unique in this realm in which we exist.  Our paths here at VdO set us apart from any other community, this is one reason I feel our submissives are very elite, a cut above.

"I met this little fire plug several months ago and found her very refreshing, a spit fire with an appetite for fun banter and clever thought.  Oh and dominance, the girl does enjoy being Dominated.

"Myself, fae and Harley did the binding scene needed as part of her log and Harley contributed to the scene making it an enjoyable scene for all three of us. I think she has a thing for ropes.

"We only scened once after that but we did continue to speak. As we spoke I worried slightly that because of her RL experience in D/s, BDSM, she may become disenchanted. We all have our ups and downs here and Harley is no different. But, she has remained true, obedient, and loyal to our community.

"I was glad to see her create a friendship with another of our sisters Malana. It is always nice to have support.

"Harley came to me several weeks ago and asked if I would be her Maitre for her sister final but because of vacations and other circumstances I told her it would be a while. She told me she would wait and I must say she showed great patience, a great trait in a submissive in my book.

"So, we planned and I told her what was expected. We followed the outline given to her by Gilli drawn from her strengths and weaknesses.   During our session, we explored kinks, tested her mental toughness, her servitude, her obedience, and overall submission. All of which, I am happy to announce, is up to the standards of this community.

(To Maitre René  and the administration group present) "It is in my estimation that this girl is more than worthy to be one of our sister submissives. I say this in  no uncertain terms."

 

                    Xanadu ~ Mentoring Sister
" Maitre Rene, Honored members on the stage, Maitres, Masters, Sirs, Misses and Ladies .. it is my pleasure to have been asked to speak on Haley's behalf.  i had the pleasure to have meet Harley early on. as i stated earlier in the welcome from Samois.  When you interview some one .. you get a bit more insight on them then one normally shows to others.
"Harley has a very gracious personality and enjoys interaction with others as she showed when she readily accepted to become a hostess for TGIF for Sir Eric, then due later to her busy work and her lifestyle had to resign.
"Although i was not her mentor we did have a relationship that was comfortable. It was always a pleasure to hear from her and i soon found her to be very detailed oriented, even to the fact of passing me notes as well as just popping in to let me know how she was doing and always inquired about others.
"There are times that we have all gone through the little ups and downs of the path but she stood tall and moved forward as a prospective Vdo Sister would be expected to do. Her graciousness showed us of her inner self when she presented her Sister workshop: Toxic Submissives and Their Behavior - Poison In The Well .. also giving us a better insight of her knowledge of BDSM...  added, and we saw a bit of her playful side,  when Diamond Harley and I were costumed in long punk hairstyles and form fitting body suits as the dancers in her "Glow for It!" Sister event, while Malana Djed an assortment of high energy rock music and flashed neon lights in the darkend room .
" Maitre Rene, Honored members on the stage and to those present in the audience, it is my pleasure to recommend Harley to be accepted as a Roissy Val D'Oise Sister and to serve this community to the fullest."

 

 

                                    Malana ~ Special Guest Speaker

"This woman has such an amazing story.  Her story is not mine to tell, but I promise if you spend time with her, you will laugh and learn so much.  Like so many here, she has dealt with the massive ups and downs of RL. She knows loss and pain, happiness and success. With each of these experiences she's questioned "why this?" and "why now?" and ultimately she's grown stronger with each of these experiences.

"She knows what is important in life and, and Maitre Taylor said, brings such a wealth of RL and SL BDSM experience to Roissy. She's been a solid, consistent and quiet presence here since December.   Most of you know that our RL and SL paths have come close to crossing then finally came together back in January, here in Roissy. We were at the same college in Texas as the same time, our RL BDSM worlds mirror each others, and we've spent significant time in SL Gor here...but never met until I came here in January.

"I really do believe in karma, and meeting Harley was exactly that.  If the true definition of a friend is one who can make you laugh, I've found the absolute best in this woman. Her quick wit and cheeky banter has me belly laughing each and every day, and I'm so thankful that we are here together."

"One of the best things about Roissy are the bonds of friendship that can grow here. The BDSM community has that ability. Before I even started on my logs, this woman and I hit it off. Because of her friendship, we both had someone to lean on during our struggles and challenges, to encourage us to continue our paths, to help with our events and assignments, to bounce ideas off of, and to just hang out during quieter times.

"Harley, I could not be prouder to welcome you into the bonds of Roissy sisterhood.  You've worked hard, pushed yourself and remained steadfast on this journey. I absolutely cherish our friendship and am so thankful for you. Congratulations to you my sister and dear friend!  This is a well deserved celebration of your success!"

 

The Conferment of Sister Title

"Maitre Rene," invites Gillian.  "You have heard the recommendations of Maitre Taylor and the warm support given to that recommendation of Xan.  May I invite you now, to confer on Demoiselle Harley the title and the ring of Sisterhood?"

"Thanks Gillian," says Maitre René. He runs his hand down the front of his vest. He gives a little tug on the bottom of it, straightening in his chair.  He smiles, nodding reflectively on the recommendations he has heard today and looks at the sweet Demoiselle, kneeling nervously but confidently on her cushion.

Harley feels her face warm as it turned pink, then glanced up with a nervous smile.

Maitre René begins.

"The day of Sister Graduation is always special for our community.  Hearing the recommendations given on behalf of Demoiselle Harley for her Sister Graduation lifts my spirit."

He looks back to Gillian and gives a nod of his head. "With pleasure I agree to continue with the proceedings. Gillian, have Demoiselle Harley come forward and kneel before me."

Gillian smiles, "yes Maitre Rene" and looks at Harley. "Demoiselle Harley, come forward please and kneel before Maitre Rene."

Harley smiled gratefully to Maitre Rene, then stood gracefully and moved forward, kneeling at his feet.

Maitre René smiles at  Demoiselle Harley kneeling before him. He looks along the platform  recalling all of their supportive words spoken on her behalf.  He raises his eyes and looks out towards the gathering of community, friends, and visitors,   seeing them all makes him feel very proud to be a part of the wonderful famille of Roissy Val d’ Oise. 

Instinctively, he pulls a weathered old leather journal from an inner pocket of his jacket and thumbs through the pages until he finds the name he searches for.  He reads the notes that he has made throughout Demoiselle Harley’s  journey. Maitre René smiles, looks out at all the Debutantes and Demoiselles  sure they are all wondering what is written in his old leather journal.  He gives them a playful wink, saying:  "I do know who has been naughty or nice."

Closing the journal with a crisp snap, he slips it back into the jacket pocket and stands.

"My family, you  see here before you a sweet submissive, one who has honored her path.  Allow me to share the highlights of her submissive training with House of Samois.

  • Harley began her journey with us on in late 2015
  • She underwent her Demoiselle Initiation on February 15, 2016, where she served and was opened by Dominates of Chateau Roissy Val D’ Oise and became known as Demoiselle Harley.

"As Demoiselle she blossomed as a beautiful rose, pink and fragrant for all the Dominants to smell." Tilting his head back, Maitre closes his eyes and pretends to smell a fragrant air.  He opens his eyes and grins at the audience.

"Ah, such a fine scent given from a bouquet of wonderful flowers... maybe we call our submissives the ‘Roissy Bouquet’."  He smiles and lays one hand upon his chest.

"Well now, where was I before such intoxication?" He  looks into Harley’s pretty eyes and smiles warmly. "Ah yes, Harley’s Submissive Path milestones……..she continued as she traveled along, eager to learn and absorb as Demoiselle.

  • Harley gave her Sister workshop:  “Toxic Subs and Their Behaviors”  this May, sharing insight into the definition and identification of toxic submissive behavior; a very interesting and thought provoking workshop
  • Harley presented a playful, rave style Sister Event, “GLOW FOR IT” on June 19, 2016 and i heard it was a very colorful neon event
  • Next followed her Sister Final and we have already heard  the acceptance of her sister skills by Taylor

Maitre René nods to Taylor and says, "Thank you my friend for all your support." He  looks out to the audience after Maitre Taylor smiled and nodded back.

"I know I have said this before but it is always good to hear it again…………The Sister Final is a test of a Demoiselle's Submission based upon her strengths and weaknesses."

Harley peers upward and softly smiles at Maitre Rene.

"It is no easy task even for the experienced submissive," he continues. "But a challenge; one that pushes the submissive and brings her a deeper core of her surrender." He looks back down upon the lovely Demoiselle, smiles and gently caresses her cheek.

Harley feels the gentle touch and smiles.

"Harley you proved the depth of your submission competently. Today it is my pleasure to award you the prestigious Roissy Val d'Oise ring and title of Sister of Roissy Val d'Oise." He  looks upon her and smiles gently.

"Harley, please hold out your hand."

Harley looks up with a proud smile and whispers "Thank you Maitre Rene,"  extending her hand toward him

Maitre René reaches inside his vest pocket and pulls out a ring... he holds it up before Harley just as a gleam of sunlight catches on the shiny band, highlighting the Roissy insignia, smiling, as  he reaches for her hand, holding it in his own and slides the shiny ring into place.

Harley looked at the ring held before her, her smile widening.

He holds her hand in both of his, and leaning forward says softly to her: "Sister Harley,  I believe you will inspire many as you move forward into the role of Mentor. My wish is that  you will continue to grow and learn and nurture others not only along your own path but their paths also."

He runs his fingers lightly over her hair...............

Harley held hear breath as he spoke, listening to the soft words whispered in her ear.  "Thank you Maitre Rene, I will work to make you proud" and she smiled as he ran his fingers through her hair.

Maitre René smiles

"Now before you is another path, should you choose to walk it,   that of O Aspirante and  it is my hope that you feel called down that path…… do you Harley?"

Harley nodded her head softly "of course, Maitre Rene, I'd be honored"

"Wonderful."

Letting go her hand, René smiles warmly, and reaching for a champagne flute, holds it up.

Harley lowered her hand to rest gently on her lap, glancing down at the new ring adorning her finger.

"Sister Harley, this is a wonderful day for you.  Your day!"

"Yes, Maitre Rene - it is a wonderful day..thank you."

He glances up at the audience. " Join me family and friends!.  A Toast to congratulate and welcome Sister Harley into our Roissy Val d’Oise Sisterhood. To you, Sister Harley! Cheers!"
