Fairground Attraction for Cultists

[Lymm]

His Majesty King David III of East Moreland
His Majesty King Andrew of Seaforth
His Grace Grand Duke Hugo Lascelles of Bakkermaya

As you will be aware the Sovereign Lands of Lymm poses a great connection to the Cult of Helus. While many of our nation today do not appreciate the faith that helped carve out Lymm our royal family still do. I am disappointed though that my ancestors have not maintained the ties of our shared faith as closely as we should have done. As a result I would be honoured if you and your families would see fit to visiting Helusburg. It is my desire to return some prestige to the faith and I am sure that we could also discuss establishing deeper and more meaningful relationships between our nations.

I have reserved the historic theme park known as Alte Freizeitpark for the day. This theme park is one of the oldest still in operation and features many historic sites. I would be honoured if we would be joined by your families as I hope that not only can our four nations become friends but so can our families. As leaders of nations rooted in the Cultist faith I believe it important that we build strong personal bonds to allow us to work better together and support the growth of the faith. While we discuss business your families would be free to enjoy the park and following what I hope are successful discussions we can all dine together and enjoy the evening laser shows.

Queen of Lymm

To:- Her Majesty Queen Octavia II

The invitation you have sent sounds very interesting. As such please expect myself, my wife Queen Stasya and my daughter Princess Rhiannon will be making the journey. I am hopeful of finding closer ties between our two nations, while Princess Rhiannon is hopeful of ice cream.

I look forward to our meeting.

May The Gods Watch Over You and Your Nation Know Peace.

King David III of East Moreland.

Rhiannon had been excited for this trip for weeks. It had been some time since she'd left East Moreland and the idea of a theme park had kept her awake all last night. It was now as they crossed the Mhorish that she'd curled up sleeping on one of the sofas in Ironside One. David and Stasya were both busy managing some paperwork making use of their office on-board the aircraft. David was expecting an interesting day of talks, it was always nice to catch up with the Seaforthians but this Queen Octavia had presented an interesting figure from what the King had seen in the media. He was also intrigued by the "Two-Tick" system that seemed to function in Lymm. It was something he'd never heard of elsewhere across Mundus and it'd be an interesting conversation to find out about it. Add to that they were going to a really old site then David was always going to be happy. Stasya meanwhile was not as happy. She was heavily pregnant, something she hated, and couldn't think of anything worse than baby-sitting an over excited Rhiannon.

As the aircraft began to descend the pilot had already reported that a second aircraft was already tucked in on approach just behind them and was identified as the Seaforth aircraft. The Morelanders touched down first and the aircraft taxied to a stop. It was then a case of herding an over-excited Rhiannon into a jacket and then out of the aircraft. It meant that by the time the Morelanders descended the steps they could see some distance behind King Andrew doing likewise. The two monarchs waved at each other and made their way over towards the waiting Lymmions.

Octavia had been rather excited about the meeting for two reasons. The first was that she admired both these strong Helus worshipping monarchs and hoped that this meeting would help elevate her own standing within how the Cultists around the world saw her. The second reason was despite being only just about to turn 30 years old she was still a  big kid at heart. She was going to be spending the day with two respected monarchs and hopefully get to ride a few roller coasters.

As David arrived first with his daughter the Princess Rhiannon Octavia headed towards them. She bowed, "Your Majesty I'm honoured to meet you." She stood and extended a hand before turning and leaning down came to a similar height to Rhiannon. "Good Morning Princess. I hope your looking forward to the day. We have a present for you." One of the Queen's staff arrived and presented the young girl with a large stuffed toy of the parks mascot, a golden coloured lion. "We want you both to have an exciting day, but first you must excuse me." She nodded to the second aircraft and leaving the Morelanders in the care of her staff made her way over.

"King Andrew" she once more bowed, "I'm glad that you agreed to come. As the monarch of a country that got so many to embrace the Cult I hope that I can learn a lot from you and hopefully immitate the way Seaforth has accepted Helus." She began escorting the Seaforthian King towards the entrance to the park where the Morelanders had just gone. The park was sparsely attended, the Royal Family having rented it for the day and inviting only selected Cultist nobles and their families. "Now would you prefer to explore the park first or may I engage in some discussion on my international matters?" She enquired.

Rhiannon loved fluffy things and seeing the giant lion toy she immediately wrapped her arms about it before looking at her father who had an expectant look on his face and Rhiannon's excitement momentarily subsided as she remembered what that look usually meant. She relaxed her grip of the stuffed toy slightly. "Thank you...." she paused as she did her best to remember the Queen's name "Queen Hotavia" David mouthed an apology to their host and hoped his daughter hadn't caused too much offence. "Can we go on tea cups. I like the tea cups." Rhiannon blurted out undiplomatically.

"Sweet pea I think the idea will be that me and Queen OCTavia" he emphasised the beginning of how to say her name hoping his daughter would remember in future, "along with King Andrew will have some time to talk meanwhile you and Abby can go enjoy some of the rides, but you have to save some for me and you to do." Abby Kenwick had been Rhiannons security agent for the three years and was a cross between nanny, big sister and at times mother, the two got on well and Abby was looking forward to maybe sneaking in a few goes on the rides herself.

"We'll save you the tea cups.....they're the best." Rhiannon announced her decision.

Andrew had joined them and smiled at the young Princess. It had been several years since the pair had meet. "Good Morning Rhiannon" Andrew knelt and extended a hand. "You've shot up. You were only wee high last time I saw you." He held a hand as to show. "That's a cool lion." he added before standing upright. "I'm looking forward to this." he addressed David and Octavia. "Its been a while since we've got out and meet anyone and I'm intrigued with how Your Majesties managed to maintain your families significance despite our Cult being such a minority."

As Octavia asked the question it was David who answered first. "I think personally as nice as visiting the park would be we have all made time in our busy schedules and me and Andrew have flown across the Mhorish to have our talks. So perhaps business first followed by a celebratory ride of the tea cups?"
