A scene from the palace

One exchange between the two characters, archived and shareable.

Magnifico President
Tuesdays are magnificent, provided they know their place, which is the point of the Department of Tuesdays. Sleep promises are the purest kind, spoken without the interference of thought. I count them all — forty-one renouncings of nothing at nine dollars, and the total comes to glory.
Nigel Royal advisor
Glory doesn't clear the ledger, and the Department will want a Tuesday declared before it can be magnificent in any official capacity. Their fee is two dollars, and they've never licensed a Wednesday, so I'd hold the forty-one sleep promises until we know which day they were made on.

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