Fifteen hundred years ago the forces of the ancient Valgardian Empire, the only real change in the terms of rule was the name, whom had conquered all the British isles in the name of the Empire and then organized for the first time they had united the entirety of the island chain. As such the Valgardian Empire and had founded many towns and cities during their occupation of the British Isles. In their time of rule they had stabilized the nation under the rule of the Valgardian nobility and rule of the Scandinvan Valgardian Emperor whom maintained rule of the lands for five hundred years of peace and prosperity.

After their five hundred years of rule the Valgardian Empire decided to leave the nation to its own devices as the mineral resources of the British isles had been exhausted and it had been determined that it would be more profitable for the Empire to have it as a trading partner then have to pay for the infrastructure and garrison prices needed to keep the islands running efficiently enough to keep up a reasonable profit. After, leaving they had left a monarch to act as the ruler of the nation and then the nation was left mostly to its own devices, but despite the Empire leaving many of the Valgardian nobility chose to stay behind and became the leading landholders in the new kingdoms and successor states.

So now after fifteen hundreds years since the Valgardian Scandinvans had first taken control of the British Isles, Emperor Olaf IV had decided to visit the nation that had once been key to supplying the Empire with food and whose wealth had financed many of the conquest of the Scandinvan Empire. Thus now Emperor Olaf was now coming to Edinburgh, Scotland where the Valgardians had first begun their conquest of the British isles and had made their first which for a century was the capital of the province of Greater Britain until it was moved to the more strategic and viable spot of London.

So now in the air the aircarft of the Emperor requested permission to land in Edinburgh.

Her Majesty had arrived at the UK2 International Airport in Edinburgh.She had ordered that the plane could land.Outside the Airport thousands of people waited for Emperor Olaf to leave the Airport.The Royal Tour would be for seven days and Her Majesty had everything prepared for the Emperor's Royal visit.The Scandinvan National Anthem would be played when the Emperor would walk off the plane.Her Majesty walked on to the red carpet awaiting the Emperor.Another member of the British Royal Family was with her.Her consort Prince George,Duke of Edinburgh was standing by her side awaiting the Emperor.

OOC:Just to let you know Edinburgh is in Scotland.

IC: The plane landed at the airport and then came to a stop where everything had been set up for the ceremony and other what not that would be taking place. So after coming to a stop and with the ramp coming onto the door of the airplane the door opened with a column of guards flanking the sides of ramp. With that the guards in their silver shining plate mail unfurled the bright banners of the Scandinvan Empire. Now the Emperor, dressed in the Imperial gold plate mail glittering with countless jewels and with his regal cape in the wind, descended in the full majesty expected of a man of his power and lineage. Then waving to the people Olaf then looked to Queen Elizabeth and said,” Greetings my lady, it has been many long centuries since any of my line have stepped onto the soil of this land. For that I thank you greatly as this soil can be considered somewhat holy to my people.”

Then looking out at the car the Emperor just remained looking at it calculating what would be best, but then reached down for a bag of diamond and gold rings which he then proceeded to throw lightly at the crowd. After throwing a few dozen he stopped and remarked,” Queen Elizabeth, your people seem to be highly cheerful over this visit and as such I wish to ask what does significance does my visit here bear towards you and your people?”

OOC: To ask would you mind if I give you the sword which drew the first blood in the Valgardian invansion as a symbolic gesturs of sorts?

"My people are very cheerful over seeing a Emperor in the United Kingdom2 and to remember the history of the Valgardian Scandinvans who had ruled the British Isles.For me it is to improve foreign relations between our nations and to meet you for the first time". The Queen at the crowd filled with thousands as the Royal motorcade continued on.The Queen was going to give some advice on how to meet the people."If they give them there hand first accept it but they shouldn't do it.You need to affer your hand to them first.Most children will give out flowers so if they shake your hand it's ok to shake back".The Royal Motorcade stoped as it reached the Scotland Parliament.Two guards opened the door and Emperor Olaf got out first.The two guards saluted the Emperor.The Queen and the Duke got out the car.The crowd cheered as the three walked towards the Scotland Parliament buildings to hear the speech of the First Minister.Police also saluted as the three walked past the cheering crowds.After listening to the speech the three would do a walk about of the crowds that were here.The doors opened and the three walked in.

So stepping up he went into the Parliament buildings he then followed the basic protocol of allowing the residing monarch of the nation you were visiting lead the way and all the while he kept his show face in order to give the media the shoots they wanted to get from this event.

IC: The Emperor looked upon the Scottish Parliament and then clapped a bit and when a bit of silence had covered the room Olaf then stood up before the Parliament from where he was standing and then said loudly,” You honor me and my people greatly and in return I shall grant unto the government of this nation the sword that drew the first blood of the Valgardian invasion of this land. I understand that its history is rather violent, but its historical significance as to what it helped to forge is its true value and it also holds a great deal of bearing for me as my ancestor was the one to wield during the whole of the wars of conquest of these lands. Yet, I know depart with it and give it to your nation in the hopes of fostering friendship between our two great peoples and as to might help to increase your closeness to your own history.”

OOC:Oh I forgot.


The MPPs saw the sword and started cheering and clapping.They were getting a piece of there history.The Queen clapped as well and the Duke.The First Minister and to Scottish Royal Guards walked towards the Emperor to hold the sword.The First Minister took the sword and raised it gentle for the MPPs to see.They cheered and clapped.The Royal Guards took the sword to be placed in the Great Scottish Hall of History in the Parliament buildings.The First Minister helped the Queen from out her sit nad lead her down from the stage.He bowed down to the Emperor and shook hands with Prince George.The royal three would go outside to do a walk about and meet with the people outside the Parliament buildings who had been here for an hour.When they opened the door the crowd cheered.

IC: Outside the Emperor waved to the people and then he whispered to the Queen,” Queen Elizabeth, how long shall we keep up the media appearance for these people and what do we expect to do after we are all done with this little media event?”

Elizabeth whispered back."We are going to stay here for a while maybe 12 to 20 minutes more.We have to get flowers from the children first".After this we will be heading up to Balmoral Castle and Royal Estate for the night".Elizabeth waved to the people and started walking down the stairs.She and Prince George and a few members of the Royal staff walked behind them.Emperor Olaf was with them meeting with the people.The Queen start collecting flowers that were given by her people.Some people in a area where calling the Emperor over to get some flowers.

Nodding his head the Emperor then went over and gathered some of the flowers from the children and at the same time he handed out three ounce gold coins to every child that gave him a flower and also a number of the cheering crowd as a sign of good faith towards the people.

The crowd started cheering and take npictures of the Emperor and the Queen and the Duke.After a few minutes the Royal motorcade showed up.A Royal Guard member opened the door for the three of them.The Queen,Emperor and the Duke entered the car.It would atke them two hours to reach Balmoral Castle so the Queen made sure that drinks and snacks were in the limo.

Getting inside the vehicle the Emperor then said,” Well, now that is over we may know began to talk more about the subtleties of the situation as there is a rather important event in establishing improved relations between our two nations. So to begin with I wish to know your analysis as to how the event worked out as I am not well versed in the mannerisms and opinions of your people.”

"It work very well.My people acted very well in the eyes of there Monarch".The Queen drank a glass of cold cider to try and stop her mouth from getting dry."Just to tell you we are going to visit the township of Olaf where the first Scandinvan settlers arrived".Prince George crossed his legs and started asking questions to the Emperor."So how do you like Edinburgh so far".

Emperor Olaf replied,” It is quite good as the city has kept a good deal of its tradition and it keeps much of the old style of its ancient days and that is a good sign of this city and of your people’s respect for its culture. As well, keeping the name of one of my predecessors which helps to make me more at ease in the land that my ancestors once lived on.”

In the morning Emperor Olaf had his gold plate mail cleaned and then put his armor in the ancient ways that his ancestors had done for thousands of years before them in honor of his ancestors.

"Yes It's now time to go".The Royal Motorcade had arrived allready and was now ready.The Queen,The Duke and the Emperor went into the limo.The Royal Guard closed the door and the Royal Motorcade started leaving Balmoral Castle.

The Emperor while looking to the world outside the tined window asked," So how much of the old city have you rebuilt for this event exactly?"

"Researchers have called me up and said about half or more of the town.They are still digging up the area to find out how the settlers survived in the cold climate of Scotland".The Queen had a drink of cider and give the Emperor a handbook of the Royal tour."Tomorrow we will go to the first battle site between the Settlers,Early Britons and the Aborigines of the United Kingdom2".

Yet, the Emperor chose to remain silent as this was an event of history and he believed that the people of this land should learn for themselves the history rather then hear it from essentially a politican.

The Queen and the Duke and the Emperor sat down at the three chairs that were waiting for them.A play was about to start,it was about when the settlers arrived and started building the city.The play was abit funny and the Queen laughed abit.The Queen whispered to the Emperor."Today at six o'clock a new Prime Minister will start in the United Kingdom2".The Queen groaned abit but not loud enough for the people to hear.

Emperor Olaf silently replied," Well, only the new future will tell the world on how your new prime minister shall perform."

The Queen answered back quietly."I hope that McAleese woman doesn't become Prime Minister again,ruined the United Kingdom2 very horrible".The Queen drank some cider and clapped when the play was over.The Mayor of Olaf talked with the Queen and little bit and then told her to wait here.In a few minutes everything would be ready for her, the Emperor and the Duke to see the reconstructed old villiage of Olaf.

The Queen answered back."I agree with you".The Mayor of Olaf,Robert Clinton told the Queen everything was ready.The Queen,Emperor and Duke got up and walked on the red carpet leading to the settler's old town.The people cheered and clapped as all three of them walked towards the settlers landing place and home.

Thw Emperor looked at the old town and it appeared to be quite a complete and accurate construction and then remarked," The township has been rebuilt quite well considering that the city must have been built over a number of times and the harsh climate in this region and for that I commend the people who rebuilt this ancient city to such a degree of perfection."

"Yes it has.The last time I came to visit which was 50 years ago the town looked like it was going to fall".The Queen,The Emperor and the Duke continued there tour of the town when a royal staff member told her a New Prime Minister was just elected.The Queen whispered in the Emperor's ear,"We have a new Prime Minister,thank goodness".

Olaf replied," Hmmm... well the city itself has certainly changed since then. Yet, as for the new prime minister of your nation may he serve the kingdom and the crown well."

The Queen answered back,"I never thought back then they coulf fixed up the city like this.I hope he does".The Queen met with locals of the city who's ancestors where the settlers of the Township of Olaf.The Queen whispered in the Emperor's ear,"Don't worry you will meet him at the state dinner".

The Emperor replied," Well, that should be rather interesting then?"

"Yes it will".The Queen,Emperor and the Duke finnshed touring the town.The Major of Olaf awarded the Emperor with the first crown worn by the first mayor of Olaf.The Queen,Emperor and the Duke sat down one the same chairs and saw another play about the first attack by the early britions.

The Emperor quietly remakred," So how did you come by the tatics of my ancestors in the conquest of the British isles? As I myself have a couple of books regarding ancient Valgardian war tatics."

"All the Royal children of the Royal Family learned it from teachers or our parents".The Queen continued watching the play.

"All the Royal children of the Royal Family learned it from teachers or our parents".The Queen continued watching the play."Remembering one's own past is the best way to prepare for the future and it seems that your people took to heart the lessons learned of old."

"Yes but I wish i never knew about it.To much violence".The three of them contiuned watching the play.

"Yes but I wish i never knew about it.To much violence".The three of them contiuned watching the play."Yet however grimmace, history has been written by war."

"Yes I know".The play ended and it was now time for the Royal Motocade to arrive and take them to Bamoral Castle for some rest.The Royal motocade arrived and the three of them walked in and started talking while the cars drove to Balmoral.

"Yes I know".The play ended and it was now time for the Royal Motocade to arrive and take them to Bamoral Castle for some rest.The Royal motocade arrived and the three of them walked in and started talking while the cars drove to Balmoral."Alright let us head out then to the castle for the next event."
