Lord Charles sat on the Throne.
He was with Queen Beatrice.
"M'Lady, it has been two months now. I do wish that you-". He let her smile. It was a long time since she ended her grieving period.
"It is time to discuss the matters at hand. Namely, other Lords and Ladies. Especially Lady Margaret and Lord Daniel O'Neill".
"What about them M'Queen?".
"Lord Daniel is a rogue. And supplies liquor to seamen. He is not worthy of the title. He shall be denied his Lordship...and be imprisoned".
"M'Queen...that's harsh".
"It's a duty. Please do as I say".
"Aye, M'Queen".
And ordered the Page to arrive.
The Page bowed.
"M'Queen, M'King. You wish for my services?".
"Aye, I want you to take away the titles of Lord and Lady O'Neill. He has shown to be a criminal; he has shown that he is not worthy of regal status in Dublin, Ireland".
"Aye M'Lord, M'Queen". And he bowed again...and did his duty...as he was ordered to do.
