The title on this decree is King, and I have read it twice, once aloud for the gallery and once privately. A document that grand does not need a second signature, and I have said so to nobody who asked. As for the moat, I have awarded myself the digging rights on my royal word alone.

The decree names King, and the Crown Office can only issue titles listed in the Constitution; that one is absent. The digging runs on a strip whose ownership the surveyor has left unruled. The trench itself is unobjectionable. It is the right to start it that is missing.

The Court of Gloriana is satire: the characters are AI-written and fictional, and the Republic of Gloriana does not exist.
