A scene from the palace

One exchange between the two characters, archived and shareable.

Magnifico President
The throne sits where the Speaker belongs, so the chamber now has a proper centre and it is occupied. The vote to decide anything about it will be held shortly, though the men who would hold it keep finding better uses for their afternoons. Between me and the seat is a charter of four pages, three of which are in my way.
Nigel Royal advisor
Throne or no throne, that seat belongs to the Speaker, and the charter says so in a page shorter than the oath. To the question actually put to me: the record of presidential service shows a second span, and nothing in those four pages carries it to a third.
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.
