The Royal Palace of Jacksonapolis stood in the centre of Jacksonapolis City, and was an impressive sight. Visible from any point in the City, it was a huge structure with several tall spires that stretched into the sky in a very fantasy-styled concept. At the centre of the structure, with everything else built in relation to it, stood the ceremonial throne room; a three-story cavernous hall with immense gold statues lining the rich red carpet that stretched across the solid silver floor from the massive main doors to the jewel-encrusted silver and gold throne. It was along this carpet that George Peter Oxford, Prime Minister to the Throne of Jacksonapolis, walked softly towards the crowned ruler of the country. Kneeling in front of the throne in his immaculate purple uniform adorned with gold and silver decorations, the Prime Minister looked respectfully towards the ground and placed a hand on his heart. “My allegiance and my honour, Your Highness,” he said reverently.
His Royal Highness Julian Augustus waved his hand regally and leant back in his throne chair, crossing his legs in his white royal uniform and relaxing his posture. “You may raise your vision and address the Crown, Prime Minister.”
Oxford stood slowly, respectfully, before looking into the eyes of the King. “Your Highness, I must report to you that we have a grave problem with the population.” He turned to an Aide who stood nearby, and clicked his fingers. The Aide scurried over, his eyes to the floor every second, handed over a document and retreated, bowing all the way. The Prime Minister then held up the document and cleared his throat. “Polls taken by the Ministry of Public Information show that your popularity ratings amongst your subjects are at a low-point of forty-three percent, a problem we put down to the sudden arrival of Your Highness to the Throne after the tragic death of your father.”
King Augustus considered this information for several minutes. “What would you suggest?” he asked. “A King without subjects who love him is nothing.”
The Prime Minister hesitated for a moment. “Well, Your Highness, we did ask of the population what they would find appealing to happen with regards to the Monarchy. The most popular suggestion was a Royal event, such as a marriage.”
Augustus looked at his Prime Minister, leaning forward. “A marriage?” he asked thoughtfully.
The Prime Minister nodded. “Yes, Your Highness. It would make you seem closer to the people in your private and public life, and it would also help secure the further line of your Royal Heritage.”
Augustus thought for a moment, weighing up the proposal. “Very well,” he said. “If I can establish a marriage in the international community, then it will also help place us on the diplomatic map.” Augustus nodded, sitting back once again in his chair. “Put this all in motion, Prime Minister.”
