Dearest gentle reader,
We’ve been apart for far too long. At last, FedHock’s dumb set has made its return, and so too has this author. As the season begins, the question on everyone’s mind, of course, is, which newly minted royal will shine the brightest? The crop this year proves to be rather bedazzling indeed. Unfortunately, not every new royal can attract the light and survive it.
Our most recently appointed monarch is the shiny brand new HRM (His Royal Meathead) King Chasin Spinster. This author is certain that if the spotlight is not on Spinster, he will surely find his way to it. Perhaps this is why HRM has spent so much energy and effort into building a veritable and impenetrable fortress between him and his subjects. It appears that His Royal Meathead spends the majority of his time taking advantage of photo ops. Indeed, the kingdom’s social media presence portrays a happy simulation of universal happiness, although frustrated whispers abound amongst his increasingly disgruntled subjects – surely an inauspicious beginning to his reign. One begins to wonder not on how long King Spinster will manage to stay in the limelight, but how long it will remain a POSITIVE one.
We have also a brand new Privy Council, but many of them are young and untried. Given the absolute authority of our current monarch, this author watches with great interest to see who will survive our annual Privy Council hunger games.
The new players in this game are:
Ima Klingtohoper, Marchioness of the Aimless Wastes
Patience Chiller, Marchioness of the Coldest Hinterlands
Survivors
Honoré Snow, Countess of the Midlands
Rake Shamblin, Baron of Labrinthia
Inner Circle Members
Field Marshal “Sporty” Heavens
Bryce Flexistick, Duke of Coins
Mat Stoolr, High Admiral and Duke of Dung
It is unknown at this time if the latest Court Jester, Deuce Dirtsucker will actually be included for anything other than comic relief.
With this intrepid assemblage of suggestors, not to mention the meddling school bored, what could go wrong? This author is keen to find out and vows to bring you all the latest.
Yours Truly,
Lady Whistleblower
