On a humid and breezeless day, a small cutter planes away from a large frigate and approaches the shoreline. Her engines cut to an idle, the water laps gently against her hull as a small group of men wade to the beach. A flag is unfurled and a tall man calls in in a clear strong voice "In the name of Her Majesty, Queen Celeste, Defender of the Faithful, Patroness of the Arts, we claim today the Seychelle Islands for the proud peoples of Hatchibombitar. Let all who oppose this claim speak now or forever hold their peace".
