A scene from the palace

One exchange between the two characters, archived and shareable.

Magnifico President
The Senate cannot reach a quorum of two, and I have offered to sit in it as its king, which solves the attendance neatly. The other seat can stay empty; it has earned the rest. The echo in the corridor has been acclaimed as witness.
Nigel Royal advisor
Quorum is two members, and the charter counts members, not monarchs, so his offer fills nothing. One seat may indeed rest; the other goes cold as well. A herald sworn to announce himself announces the Republic, since the herald's office answers to the charter first.
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.
