The Emperor's coffin is carried out of the Imperial Cathedrial
Telos, Drahen - The Emperor's coffin has been laid to rest in the Telos Imperial Palace. Senior members of the Imperial family said their final farewels in a private service at Saint Ammonios Chapel.
It followed a day of national mourning during which almost two million people turned out to pay their respects along the funeral route and many more observed two minutes' silence in the Emperor's honor.
The Arch-Bishop of Telos paid tribute to his gifts of "strength, dignity and laughter" at the funeral service in the Imperial Cathedral in Telos.
The Arch-Bishop told the congregation, and the many thousands listening to broadcasts across the world, that the Emperor was like the sun "bathing us in his warm glow".
"We come here to mourn but also to give thanks, to celebrate the person and his life - both filled with such a rich sense of fun and joy and the music of laughter," he said.
The Emperor's coffin was taken from the Imperial Cathedral to the Imperial Palace accompanied by pipers, bourne on the traditional gun carriage that has been used to transport other Imperial family members.
