In and round the Emerald Palace

There have been changes in the Emerald Palace after the Emperor IV ascended the throne. He has ordered an imperial decree that other events happening around the Palace should also be reported rather than focusing on just the Royal family members.

The rulers of the other Kingdom came for an official visit to the Emerald Kingdom. The small one is the King and the bigger one is the Queen. Special arrangements have been made for our distinguished guests to feel at home. Special food has also been catered to suit their exquisite taste.

The Emperor IV has decided to credit an unsung hero of the Kingdom. A small warrior who recently eliminated a pest. Fighting someone same size if not bigger, the warrior showed no fear and eventually got its lunch within a short span of time. The Emerald Kingdom lacks such talents. Recruitment for warriors never stop.

The Empress Dowager is in the process of finding the next heir for the throne from other distant relatives given that the Emperor and Empress IV are still childless.

As for the Palace Steward, I am relearning a skill that I have lost last year; relearning how to be alone. I used to have a reporting officer last year, but I am all by myself now.

Garden Party @ the Palace

It is a tiring day for the Palace Steward. I represented the Emerald Kingdom to attend a garden party of another kingdom. The palace is huge with a 9-hole golf course, a pond with 2 white swans and filled with flowers and other greeneries.

That was the hand of yours truly. Somehow the shape of the flower made me tempted to put my hand there like that. Disclaimer: I did not attempt to touch or pluck the flowers.

My old bones nearly broke after standing for hours in the garden. That was the reason why I was sent to the garden party because the Royal Family members should not exert themselves unnecessary.
