The leaders of the monarchist faction of the National Convention have announced they have struck a deal to pass a final proposal on a future monarchy’s powers and role. The commission in charge of finding a suitable candidate to the throne has also published its ten picks. Voting on all options and the final proposal will be done tomorrow. The candidate who receives the most votes via approval voting will be offered the crown. It is rumored that the monarchists have chosen to grant the title of “Emperor” or “Empress” and rename the country to the “Imperial State of Ryccia”.
Several Frost Nobles were heard shouting from President Kensei’s office expressing their displeasure at rumors of the new Ryccian Monarch being an “Emperor/Empress” demanding the Imperial Frost government do something about the situation. The nobles claimed that the process of the people choosing their emperor was an affront to the gods who blessed individuals and their descendants with the mandate of the heavens and that the government should pressure the Ryccians to choose a different title among other demands.
The President was later heard chastising the nobles stating, “It matters not what the Ryccians stylize themselves as, if their new monarch can provide stability. We know that the Divine Emperor stands above the mortal royals, and all you are proposing is to insult our emperor by portraying him as a petty god to the world. I will not allow such disrespect to occur and you best stay your tongue lest you end up in the brig for lese majeste.”
A Ryccian spokesperson of the Foreign Ministry, when asked about the uproar among the Frost nobles, stated “the Ryccian government does not consider the protests of self-centered aristocrats as relevant to hear. The Ryccian state is secular, and it will not make any concessions to the Frost Empire on its domestic affairs, especially when the objections of a few nonsensical radicals are based on religious grounds. We trust that the Frost government will not yield to their pressure”.
