OOC: You should read this thread first to get the background of what is taking place so you can RP properly if you wish to join in. A Royal Engagement (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=362072)

The king's security burst in "are you all right your majesty?"

"Yes, yes, I'm fine. Harriet, are you OK?"

Picking herself up off the floor and brushing the glass shards away she looked around and said "I seem to be OK, just a little shaken, but . . . 'Lude, you're bleeding!"

Looking down at himself, king 'Lude noticed a rather sizable piece of glass had lodged in his lower left arm and blood had begun to flow. Looking around the room he saw where the glass had come from. All 6 windows that looked out onto the courtyard had been blown in. "I'll be alright darling, its just a small cut."

"Sire, I'm sending for the royal physician" said the head of the security detail.

"Yeah, do that, its probably a good idea just to make sure."

The officer spoke into his head mike and then put his finger to his ear as he listened to some radio chatter and a reply.

"What the hell happened Mr. Smith?" said the king to his favorite Man in Black (the king's security detail were composed of Men in Black with specialized training to secret to reveal).

Looking up at the king Mr. Smith spoke into his head mike and then said where the king and Harriet could hear: "Apparently, sire, Counselor Skalees' car was rigged with a bomb. After her meeting with you and Ms. Levine, when she went to leave, her car exploded. We're still trying to get a damage assesment and determine who else may have been injured. However, I regret to tell you that Counselor Skalees has been killed. We have taken into custody for questioning the valet' who parked her car upon arrival at the palace this afternoon. And sire, you may wish to note, he is a Blunt island native."

"Son of a Bitch!" exclaimed the king. "I should have known, the legal challenge was just the beginning, if not a pure smoke screen. Harriet, are you sure you're up for this wedding. Obviously, we've got problems that a TV P.R. campaign won't completely solve."

In a small, secure meeting room on Blunt Island, Governor Marks addressed the gathered secessionists:

"The king's number one lawyer is dead, he now knows we're serious. I'm in communication with the governor of Bhang Island and he is 100% behind us. The Supreme Court will rule on the constitutional challenge soon, but I doubt they will rule in our favor. A contitutional ammendment has been proposed that will occupy the national legislature and divert their attention from our plans. The Blunt Island Island People's Militia has over 40,000 troops that we can be sure of will join our cause. Bhang Island's militia has at least that many as well. The political cost to the king if he engages in full war against his own people will be enormous. Do we secessede or not, I put it to a vote of the committee. If we do, expect conflict and fighting. If we do not, then the king wins and any foreigner a king or queen deigns to be his consort could end up being the ruler of Mauiwowee and comprosing our nation to the ends of their home country. I say we fight this now."
