“Velmor: After what was described as an overwhelming vote by the Velmor government, the life-long monarchy was restored. Filling these position was the noble Janick family which had produced several monarchs on other worlds such as Onderon. The ceremony took place at the palace and dignitaries from around the galaxy were invited, most from fellow Republic worlds, many of which are monarchies as well.
After a protester was removed from the ceremony, the coronation began.
Thalia Janick entered the throne room along the red carpet riding a large white stallion, followed by her aides on black horses, as the audience watched in awe. From the royal stage, her aunt the Chancellor Tiffany Vandergraff approached Thalia as she disembarked. The Chancellor then made the proclamation that from this day forward, Thalia Janick would be known as the Queen of Velmor’s East, West, North, and South Realms. The new Queen was then asked to approach.
Coronation ceremony.
The new Queen was then given an oath to repeat,”“Will you solemnly promise and swear to govern the Peoples of the Velm system, the planet of Velmor, and of your Possessions and other Territories to any of them belonging or pertaining, according to their respective laws and customs?, Will you, to your power, cause Law and Justice, in mercy, to be executed in all your judgments?, Will you, to the utmost of your power, maintain the Laws of the Galaxy and the Universe? Will you, to the utmost of your power, maintain in the Kingdom the order established by law? And will you preserve unto the Peoples of Velmor all such rights and privileges, as by law do or shall appertain to them or any of them?”. Thalia answered in the affirmative to each question.
Following the oath, Mrs. Vandergraf then proclaimed the princess as the new Queen of Velmor and placed a crown on Thalia’s head. She was then introduced to the audience with her new title. Zula Cyn of the Royal Council and Royal Advisor came forward to pledge her loyalty to the new Queen. Following this pledge, Queen Janickthen addressed the people.
Queen Thalia Janick addressing the audience
The Queen stated she had two immediate duties as the new Queen. First was to make the first Knight; the honour falling on Sir Seraphinus. Secondly she honoured the men and women who rescued her from Nar Shaddaa giving each one a medal and a special thank you to Diplomacy Minister Tae. She stated that she had gone to Nar Shaddaa on a diplomatic mission but was instead captured. She was humbled and proud that the Republic had come to her rescue. With the end of her speech she then invited everyone to a buffet on the balcony.
As the ceremony came to an end, two sides were clearly being formed. One with a minority of objectors, which Hixal Aulus was one, and another with strong supporters of the new Queen including Onderon Senator Ayeka Kel and Morrigan of Bengat.
Time well be the judge it seems if Velmor made a wise decision, though maybe because of the troubled times in the galaxy many worlds are resorting to absolute monarchies as a form of governance. GNN wishes the new Queen luck as well as the people of Velmor.
