Satire: Politics

she be woman, that she be pretty, and that she be?

The Ice Princess bore the Hebrew name of the wife of Abraham. A name that meant woman of high rank (though of less statue than a first wife), with a beauty so great that all other persons appeared to be apes in comparison.

She was the perfect foe to the former First Queen. Having already tasted the fresh flesh of power in defeat, it was only a matter of time before the Ice Princess would return from her lair to seize the spotlight once more.

The new trend in the Kingdom of Fairness was diversity. This is what the Fairi people wanted, this is what the PIP had, and it was what the OP must become if it were ever to taste the sweet nectar of dominance again.

They had an Ice Princess, a Dark Prince, but still needed a new dynamic figure to lead them back. Through a series of votes and much hand wrangling and discussion emerged a Man of Steel.

This Man of Steel looked a lot like the new King except a little older, a bit balder and a tad taller-other than that there was virtually no difference at all to an untrained eye.

Most importantly he was able to speak the language of the minority class of Fairi's. Using such colloquialisms as "off the hook" to relay a message of hipness, coolness and familiarity with the commoners.

Not many in the OP understood what "off the hook" meant. But they were all "down with it" along as the Man of Steel was up to the task of helping them reclaim the thrown. Which he, in no uncertain terms, promised to do.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Fairi people looked to their newly elected King to restore faith in their government, fairness to its people, and dignity to a country once lost but no more.

Because they knew that with a little help, a watchful eye, and steady hand at the helm that Fairi people really "can do anything".

God Bless you, and God Bless the United Kingdom of Fairness.
