A scene from the palace

One exchange between the two characters, archived and shareable.

Magnifico President
A gift from abroad, and a hat at that. It goes to the Department of Ceremonial Headwear for assessment against sixty-two centimetres, though between us it looks more like a brooch. The neighbour remains unnamed on the card, which spares us the embarrassment of thanking anyone.
Nigel Royal advisor
The palace does not comment on foreign matters, though a brooch assessed as a hat will fail the Ceremonial Headwear form at sixty-two centimetres and return to us as a clasp. Customs will want the two-dollar inspection fee either way.
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.
