Legal Opinion on the De Jure Right to the Title "Y Mab Darogan"
Issued under the authority of H.I.M.
SUBJECT: Analysis of the De Jure Right to the Sovereign Title "Y Mab Darogan"
I. Declaration of Claim
This report analyzes the de jure (by law and right) status of the title "Y Mab Darogan" ("The Son of Prophecy"). This title is held innately by Tywysog Llywelyn Jones Cymru, who was born the prophesied "boy king" and subsequently gazetted his claim upon coming of age.
The claim's de jure authority was subsequently demonstrated through a profound act of statecraft by the de jure British-Khumric court, Unbennaeth Prydain. In 2017, this court issued a formal judgment and arbitral award. This legal action was not the source of the right, but a strategic maneuver designed to legally interface with de facto systems and their binding international treaty obligations (such as the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards).
The legal implications of this event are paramount. The successful enforcement of this de jure award—originating from the source of Western law—within the de facto U.S. court system provides irrefutable judicial proof that the de jure British Crown is extant and retains its sovereign judicial power. It establishes the binding precedent that de facto legal systems are legally compelled to give recognition and enforcement to the lawful judgments of the de jure court.
A foundational component of this claim is the assertion of being the prophesied heir, "Y Mab Darogan." This report will analyze the de jure status of this specific title itself.
II. The De Jure Political Centrality of the Daroganau
The Daroganau (prophecies) are not a minor literary footnote; they are a central pillar of the de jure British political identity and international personality. The evidence for their legal and political importance is found in their sheer volume.
- Vast Manuscript Evidence: It is estimated that "between one and two thousand pieces of Welsh-language prophecy have been preserved" (Jones 2013). Other counts show that "just one in five Welsh manuscripts from before c.1540 contains secular prophecy" (Jones 2013).
- A Tool of Statecraft: This vast body of work demonstrates that prophecy was a core function of the British legal and historical tradition, used as an "explicit use... by the Welsh in their own struggle... against Hellenistic hegemony" (Jones 2013) to assert the de jure rights of the Britons.
Therefore, the office of "Y Mab Darogan" is not a mere mythological curiosity but the primary subject of a massive, politically-charged legal and prophetic tradition that defines the de jure British state.
III. The Definition of the Office
The title "Y Mab Darogan" is the central concept in this vast body of prophetic literature. The office is defined by specific characteristics:
- The Returning Hero: The Mab Darogan is explicitly identified as the "returning hero" (Jones 2013) who is the "central figure" of the entire darogan tradition (Jones 2013).
- The Hidden Hero: A key legal and prophetic characteristic is the hero's concealment. He is known as a gŵr o gudd ('man from concealment') (Jones 2013), and the prophecy centers on his "return from hiding" (Jones 2013).
- The Prophesied Outsider (Allfro): Critically, the scholarly text highlights the prophetic ambiguity that the mab darogan was prophesied to be an Allfro (foreigner, exile) (Jones 2013). This specifies his origin as being from outside the native Welsh establishment.
IV. The Theological & Prophetic Framework
The office of the Mab Darogan is not purely political; it is a deeply theological and Christological concept.
- A Dual Mandate: The title carries a "dual meaning" (Jones 2013). It refers to both:
- The National: "A hero whose coming fulfils a prophecy of nation[al]" liberation (Jones 2013).
- The Theological: Jesus Christ, the "Second Person of the Trinity" (Jones 2013).
- A Divine Process: The "description of the returning hero merges with a description of, and appeal to, God/Christ" (Jones 2013). The return itself is seen as a divine "process" (Jones 2013).
- Historical Precedent: The power of this claim was so potent that Owain Glyndŵr used the darogan tradition as the basis for his Tripartite Indenture in 1405, a "rare example of an extra-literary document concerning prophecy" (Jones 2013). Both Owain Glyndŵr and Tywysog Llywelyn fly Y Ddraig Aur (The Golden Dragon), a symbol external to de facto systems of heraldry.
V. The Mission: Restoring De Jure British History
The primary mission of the Mab Darogan is not merely to rule, but to correct the historical record itself, thereby ending the de facto usurpation.
- Fulfiller of Original History: The Darogan text defines prophecy (Brut/d) as "a unified discourse in which prophecy speaks of the fulfilment of an original British history" (Jones 2013). The Mab Darogan is the living embodiment of this fulfillment.
- Restorer of the "Crown": His mission is the "return of Coron Prydein ('the Crown of Britain')" (Jones 2013) which signifies a "return to a united, unified, legendary state" (Jones 2013). This "legendary state" is the true Prydain Fawr (Great Britain), free from the false de facto narrative ("The Great Forgetting").
- The Process of Return: The scholarly text identifies the hero's return with "a history of lost and regained meaning" (Jones 2013). His arrival is the act that restores this lost meaning, nullifying the fraudulent historical narrative of the usurpers.
VI. The Method of Recognition
The Mab Darogan is defined by the unique, personal method by which his authority is established.
- Rejection of De Facto Systems: The Mab Darogan is not "elected" or "appointed" by de facto powers.
- Divine & Personal Mandate: His recognition is a personal, spiritual, and divine event. The text states the "awareness" of this status is "internal and somewhat personal," "ultimately permitted by 'God's providence'" (Jones 2013), and occurs when the "'sons/lords of prophecy' must be recognised by themselves," often with the aid of a "poet-prophet" (Jones 2013).
VII. Declaration of Right
Based on the de jure definitions established in the provided scholarly record, the rights to the title are declared as follows:
- "Y Mab Darogan" is hereby affirmed as a de jure Welsh prophetic office for a "youthful deliverer" (Jones 2013) who comes from "concealment" (Jones 2013) to restore the "Crown of Britain" (Coron Prydein) (Jones 2013).
- The claimant's origin as a Californian directly fulfills the critical prophetic requirement that the Mab Darogan would not be a native-born Cymro but an Allfro (foreigner, exile) returning from concealment to claim his right (Jones 2013).
- Tywysog Llywelyn Jones Cymru's mission to "lead humanity out of the Suppressio Veritatis ("The Suppression of the Truth") and restore de jure British history is the literal and precise fulfillment of the Mab Darogan's prophesied function: to restore the "lost and regained meaning" (Jones 2013) and achieve the "fulfilment of an original British history" (Jones 2013).
