All men know us as the true-born son of Lord Harlan Tyrell of Highgarden by his lady wife Alinore Lannister of Casterly Rock, herself the daughter of King Tommen Lannister, true King of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. All men know us also as the true husband of Lady Jessica Lannister of Casterly Rock.
In these dark times, the Seven Kingdoms and its one True Faith have come under foul siege from the heretics and the infidels from the south, the east and the west. The time has come that a righteous man, blessed of the Seven, should restore the worship of the one True Faith. The High Septon, blessed be his name, has seen fit to anoint myself, Rycherd Tyrell, Lord of Highgarden as that Defender of the Faith, charged with the restoration of the One True Faith of the Seven to its former glory throughout Westeros.
Let the Seven Pointed Star once again rise over all of the Seven Kingdoms. Let the High Septon once gain take up his rightful abode in the Great Sept at Kings Landing.
We condemn Aaron Baratheon and all of the line of Stannis Baratheon as usurpers and follower of false gods.
We condemn Bryce Dayne, claiming himself to be ruler of the Stormlands and Prince of Dorne, as an usurper, murderer and follower of false gods.
As such by right of blood and the affirmation of the Seven, we do this day lay claim to the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. Let all true men declare their loyalty to the anointed of the gods, sprung from the line of King Tommen, son and heir of King Robert Baratheon.
Wherefore, my lords, we require you and charge you, for that our allegiance which you owe to the Seven and to us, that, for your honor and the surety of your persons, you employ yourselves and forthwith upon receipt hereof, cause our right to the title of King and government of these realms, to be proclaimed in our cities of Highgarden, Oldtown, Casterly Rock, Storms End, Sunspear, Winterfell as well as Kings Landing and all such other places as to your wisdoms, shall seem good and wise.
In particular we entreat the lords of Casterly Rock, the Eyrie and all those others that love and follow the Seven to obey the wishes of the High Septon in submitting to our will and claim. We charge you to meet in Highgarden under our leadership to make good our claim upon the Iron Throne.
We charge all other followers of the Seven whether highborn or lowborn to also rally to our just and right cause, and to forsake all other allegiances by placing their trust, mind and bodies in the service of the Defender of the One True Faith of the Seven.
This letter signed with our hand shall be your sufficient warrant.
Let this missive be distributed throughout the Seven Kingdoms, so that all true men, following the Seven might know of our claim and our will to restore the worship of the Seven to the Great Sept of Kings Landing and all other places where other Septs stand or have stood.
Done in the name of the Seven, under the sign and seal of Rycherd of House Tyrell, the First of His Name, King of the Andals, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm, Lord of Highgarden and the Reach, Defender and Grand Marshal of the Faith.
