Years: 887 - 887
May
Having set about to try again after the failure of his first attempt, Charles has had the term proles (offspring) inserted into his charters as it had not been in previous years, probably because he desires to legitimize Bernard.
Charles had met the new Pope, Stephen V, in early 886 and had probably negotiated for the recognition of his son as his heir.
An assembly had been planned for April and May of the next year at Waiblingen.
Pope Stephen cancels his planned attendance on April 30, 887.
Berengar, who by a brief feud with Liutward had lost the favor of the emperor, arrives at Waiblingen in early May 887, makes peace with the emperor, and compensates for the actions of the previous year by dispensing great gifts.
