'''Title: Casca Becomes King'''

'''Author: Tomas Savos'''

On January 12, 2009,
the Royal Council, by
unanimous vote, elected
Royal Ambassador Casca
as King pro-tempore.
Over the following
weekend, Casca addressed
the people with a few
speeches. As a seeming
response to the means by
which Casca became King,
Sherry the Mouse also
made a few speeches. The
reactions of the people
of Britannia were mixed,
some showing hatred
towards our new King,
some seeming to be
uncertain as to what to
think, but most happily
accepting Casca as the
new King of Britannia.
Approximate copies of the
speeches given by Casca
and Sherry follow...

=== Casca's Speech ===
People of Britannia! My
fellow citizens!

Thank you for coming.
I stand before you a
humble and grateful man.
I stand before you as
your King.

Today, I hope to share
with you my vision for
the future.

I hope I can answer many
of the questions you
probably have.

I am now your king by
decision of the Royal
Council.

Our Royal Council has
been rebuilt stronger out
of hardship and pain.
It is the wisdom of this
Council that in this time
of great strife,
We, the people of
Britannia, would be unified
behind one leader.

Of the Council's many
members, I was chosen to
be that one leader.
The Royal Council has
placed their hope and
trust in me.

I will now work hard to
earn these sentiments.
However, I will not be
working just for the
Royal Council.

I will be working for
Britannia and the Virtues.
And I will be working for
all of you as well.
Your king is also your
servant.

I want you to know the
sort of man I am.
If I am to lead you, I
want your trust.

I have always been a
dedicated public servant.
As Royal Prosecutor, I
stopped the treasonous
Ricardo from doing more
harm.

I was the first elf to
ever have such a role in
the Court of Justice.
As Ambassador, I helped
maintain peace and create
alliances.

These allies share our
love of good and Virtue.
As a member of the
Royal Council, I was a
strong voice.

I helped to make decisions
that kept all of us safe.
I faced grave harm as
member of this Council,
But I persevered to
serve for another day.
I remain a dedicated
public servant.

I believe in the Virtues.
Justice guided me in
Court.

Humility guided me when
working with our allies.
Valor when I faced
attacks by powerful foes.
Compassion when I chose
to accept this position.
I am not becoming king
for personal power or
glory.

I am becoming king to
keep Britannia safe and
prosperous.

To keep all of you safe
and prosperous.

I am willing to sacrifice
every hour of labor I will
ever work,
And every drop of blood I
have.

For this duty.

For this honor.

I ask as much of you.
You have a role to play
in our kingdom's future.
With my guidance, your
swords and your spells
will win this war
Not just with our
current enemies, but all
our enemies as well.
Will you stand with me
against the virtue-less?
With my drive and vision,
we will rebuild all our
cities.

No longer will these gems
of Virtue be buried in
rubble or debris.

Will you walk beside me
as we build our cities
tall?

With my thirst of
justice, we will
strengthen our forces and
our laws,
So that no villain or
army can strike against
our Virtues or our lives.
Will you live and work
with Truth, Love, and
Courage?

Will you step into the
future with me?
We will all have to make
sacrifices for this future
I see.

This war will be costly in
both lives and resources.
Many have already died
valiantly.

We owe it to these
heroes to put aside doubt
and win this war.

The struggle will not end
with just the
Shadowlords' defeat.
We have enemies within
our own people, brigands
and troublemakers.
We must know their
names and their crimes
for Justice.

Our cities will bare the
scars of invasion for a
short time.

We will also toil long and
hard to rebuild.
But our people will be
safe. Our way of life will
be safe.

I tell you now: things will
change for the better.
We cannot cling to past
victories or outdated
traditions.

The Royal Council has
taken the first step.
All of us must be willing
to take the next steps.
We cannot allow an
inefficient bureaucracy to
undermine our efforts.
Those with the ability will
be allowed to do great
things.

There will be new faces.
I have already started
looking for talented
individuals
Who will strengthen our
military, strengthen our
courts, and strengthen
our cities.

You will all have a role
in the future we are
building.

I ask that you start
working hard for that
future and know this:
The throne is no longer
empty.

Long Live the Virtues!
Long Live Britannia!

=== Sherry's Speech ===

Good morning, and thank
ye for joining me.
For those with a
confused look on thine
faces, my name is
Sherry.

Aye, I am a mouse, and
Aye, a talking one.
I've lived in this castle
for years, and am a dear
friend of Lord British...
As ye may have heard
already, Casca was named
king recently.

The appointment 'twas
made by a veryyy new
council, who were
appointed in haste.
I do not mean to say
that Casca is not fit to
lead, only that the haste
of this decision worries
me.

Another recent occurrence
has left Avery sitting in
a Britannian dungeon.
We have not heard his
side of the story, yet
many seem to have
accepted him as a
criminal.

Casca says Avery aided
the Followers of
Armageddon with their
murder of the Royal
Council.

Casca, however, was
locked in a dungeon
himself at the time, and
the Followers of
Armageddon are not above
deception.

He may have witnessed
another who simply looked
like Avery, or heard only
what the FoA wanted him
to hear.

Avery may very well have
been carefully framed by
the Followers.

Another prisoner that
concerns me is Ricardo.
Yes, Ricardo got a trial,
but 'twas hardly a fair
one.

Ricardo was found guilty
of High Treason, a crime
crafted specifically to
match the actions he
admitted to.

He was not found guilty
of anything in a way that
follows Justice.

It is possible that my
concerns are for naught,
but assuming we know the
answers before we ask all
the questions is
dangerous.

Even if Casca proves to
be a king comparable to
Lord British himself, and
even if Avery and Ricardo
are the scum that they
have been made out to
be... I would still be
worried.

My fear is with what
might happen if we
continue to act as we
have, with haste and
minimal inquiry.

Eventually, haste will lead
to a grave mistake.
