England = Arthur (duh)

Scotland = Alastair

N. Ireland: Kieran

----------

In the cold open ocean, there sailed a mighty ship amidst the thick fog. Clouds hung above the ship as gentle rain poured down from the gray skies. Aboard was a pirate captain and his crew. The captain leaned against the port side of his ship, looking out into the open waters with great fondness as his dirty blonde hair whipped through the winds. His crewmates around him sang a hearty tune to the ships bucking and groaning.

♪ I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue, ♪

♪ And it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho, ♪

♪ Look out lad, ♪

♪ A mermaid be waiting for you, ♪

♪ In mysterious fathoms below. ♪

The captain took a heavy breath and smiled widely, "ah, isn't this great? The salty sea air, the wind blowing in your face."

"A perfect day to be at sea," the captain said as he turned to his elder brother, Alastair, who looked a bit worse for wear faring among the sea.

"A fine strong wind, and a followin' sea," his brother held back a retch, "King Triton must be in a friendly type mood."

"King Triton?" inquired the captain with a bit of a chuckle.

"Why, the king of the merpeople, Artie," his brother said, giving the captain a teasing shove, "thought every good sailor knew of 'im."

The captain laughed, "sounds more like nautical nonsense, Alastair."

"But it ain't nonsense," Alastair insisted, "down in the depths of the ocean they live!"

A pair of seagulls flew past the two brothers, and as the ship gave another groan, waves splashed and shimmered in the light that shone through the clouds. Indeed, deep beneath the ocean's foamy waves resided a thriving and colorful kingdom...

—————

In the deep ocean blue indeed lay a beautiful castle of coral and pearls; the castle dazzled in sparkling golden hues, and merfolk from ocean-wide swam forth for the upcoming royal music ceremony. Inside the musical hall, was a beautiful sea-green color arch above the grand stage, with pink scallops adorning its features. The royal fanfare echoed through the castle as merfolk awaited his royal highness and his seven adoring daughters.

"His royal highness, King Triton!"

The king emerged from the corridor in a chariot pulled by dolphins, he was adorned with a shimmering gold crown and his signature trident. He smiled and waved as his subjects cheered, and as a small show, his trident glowed bright gold, and the pearl chandelier bloomed with light and sparkled. The subjects gasped and gave their king wondrous applause.

"And presenting the distinguished court composer, Horatio Felonious Ignacious Crustaceous Sebastian!"

On cue, a comical fanfare of kazoos played as the court composer entered in a chariot pulled by two small fish. The crowd clapped and cheered, though certainly not as uproarious as was for their king.
