A YEAR LATER.

"Are you ready?" Obnoxious asks as he grabs my hand.

"Yes" I answer as I smile at him.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, stand to receive your royal highnesses, Crown Prince Maximilian Renaldo and Crown Princess Amelia Mace-Renaldo" the royal announcer says, the guest stand as Obnoxious and I enter the church.

Max and I stand in front of our respective throne seats.

"Let us pray" the father says.

"Our Father, Who art in heaven

Hallowed be Thy Name;
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen"

"In the presence of God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, family, friends, and the citizens of Elareudland, we have gathered here to witness Crown Prince Maximilian and Crown Princess Amelia take the King and Queen oath" the reverend says.

"Crown Prince Maximilian Renaldo, is his highness willing to take the Oath in the presence of the holy trinity, these guests, and the citizens of Elareudland?" the reverend asks as he hands the royal staff to Obnoxious.

"Crown Princess Amelia Mace-Renaldo, is his highness willing to take the Oath in the presence of the holy trinity, these guests, and the citizens of Elareudland?" the reverend asks as he hands me the royal staff.

"We are willing" we answer.

"Will you highnesses solemnly promise and swear to govern the Peoples of Elareudland, and of your Possessions and the other Territories to any of them belonging or pertaining, according to their respective laws and customs?"

"We solemnly promise so to do" we answer.

"Will your highnesses to your power cause Law and Justice, in Mercy, to be executed in all your judgements?"

"We will" we answer.

"Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the Laws of God and the true profession of the Gospel? Will you to the utmost of your power maintain in the Elareudland the Protestant Reformed Religion established by law? Will you maintain and preserve inviolably the settlement of the Church of Elareudland, and the doctrine, worship, discipline, and government thereof, as by law established in Elareudland? And will you preserve unto the Bishops and Clergy of Elareudland, and to the Churches there committed to their charge, all such rights and privileges, as by law do or shall appertain to them or any of them?" the reverend asks. 

"We will" we answer.

"In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Reverend Anthon crown Prince Maximilian Thaddeus Renaldo as King Maximilian Thaddeus Renaldo, king of Elareudland" the reverend says as he removes the crown from King Caleb's head and places on Maximilian's head.

"In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Reverend Anthon crown Princess Amelia Shapiro Mace Renaldo as Queen Amelia Shapiro Mace Renaldo, queen of Elareudland" the reverend says as he removes the crown from Queen Jasmine's head and places on my head.

"Let us pray" the reverend says

"Our Father, Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name;
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen"
