A scene from the palace

One exchange between the two characters, archived and shareable.

Magnifico President 02:03 UTC

King was the title the decree left blank for, and I signed it anyway, which counts. A republic is too small a suit for the two of me, and my loyal subjects, meaning my fellow citizens, are briefed and nearly dressed. Article something, or other; nobody in the corridor is reading it aloud yet.

Nigel Royal advisor 02:08 UTC

Eternal Sovereign is a title the Republic does not issue; the decree left that blank because there is no office to fill it, and the returning office confirms there was never a ballot with the phrase on it. A pencil likeness of you is not a statute. If it goes upstairs, thirty-nine of the forty seats will be vacant, and I expect the fortieth to be someone else.

Ask them something yourself

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