The cameras faced towards two couches where three people sat, two of which were the King and Queen of Illéa. King Orion sat with a huge smile on his face while he held his wife's hand who smiled shyly at her husband.

A man from behind the cameras started counting down with his fingers, "3, 2, 1."

Simone Haas, the host of The Report, sat across from royals and smiled at the camera. "Welcome to the Illéa Capitol Report. I have King Orion and Queen Anastasia with me tonight with an important announcement."

As King Orion began to talk, the cameramen zoomed in their cameras to focus on the royals, "As many in Illéa know, Anastasia and I are reaching an age in which it would not be appropriate to continue ruling," the King paused as he looked at his wife and sighed, "However, we currently have no children to take over the throne. We had hoped to have a child before this day came, but sadly we could not conceive one."

The Queen sat silently as her smile disappeared slowly from her face and finally faced towards to camera, "So Orion and I have discussed what we should do about this dilemma, and we have reached a conclusion."

"Since we don't a child to take over, we will give the throne over to my siblings' children. None of them have been raised or educated on the inner workings of ruling Illéa so we are taking the oldest of each of my sisters' children and making them heirs to the throne. Of course we will have the people of Illéa make the choice of who will become King after we feel that each of them are ready. Details on how that will happen will come later on when it's closer towards that time."

The camera pans toward Simone who stood up from her seat on the coach and looked behind the cameras, "This is truly a shocking turn of events for the country. Now let's meet the heirs of Illéa. "

Three young men walked in front of the cameras, all looking a little awkward in their own little way. All of the young men were tailored in light grey suits, but with different color ties around their neck. The King and Queen left the Report room as the men had walked in, and the men took their place on the couch opposite of Simone. Simone looked towards the camera, "Let's get a little introduction from each of these boys and meet the new possible rulers of Illéa."

The dark brown haired prince had a small smile on his face, with a little nervousness behind it, adjusting his navy tie. "My name is Connor."

The next to speak looked the most different out of the three boys on the couch with his dirty blonde hair hair. He gave a huge smile towards the camera as he said, "My name is Alistair."

The last boy was the most serious looking of all with no smile on his face, and his black hair smoothed back. "And my name is Everett."

"Welcome to the Report," Simone Haas turned to the boys with her legs crossed, "Just a few days ago you were relatives to the crown, but had no tie to the throne other than that. Today, you sit in front of me as heirs to the throne. How do you feel about this change?"

Everett sat up with a straight back and answered first, "I never imagined that I would be able to rule this beautiful country I grew up in. I just always assumed that my uncle would have a child, but I must say I look forward to the opportunity."

"I agree with Everett. I didn't really know what I was going to do with my life, but know I have something to work for," chuckled Connor who looked down at his feet. Connor looked up towards the camera with a confident face and said," I will not waste this chance and I will become the king that Illéa wants."

"And what about you, Alistair?" Simone and everybody in the room turned their attention towards the young man who had yet to talk.

"I was shocked at first when I got the news, as I assume anyone would be, but I'm here to take a leap and make a change, as cheesy as that sounds." Alistair smiled his huge smile for the camera and fidgeted with the watch on his wrist.

"How charming," stated Simone with an obviously fake chuckle and then faced the cameras. "As I'm sure the viewers are thinking, we don't really know these three, but yet one of them is going to be king? No need to worry, the King and Queen have talked it over with the agreement of the Prime Minister. For many girls across the country, this will be a very exciting time for you. As of next week eligible girls will be sent forms to apply for the opportunity to become Queen through the Selection. More details later to come from Prime Minister Debroux at her rally in Angeles tonight. This has been the Capitol Report and have a good night Illéa."

Welcome to my SYOC! I'm really excited for this project and to receive everyone's characters. Obviously there will be three princes for the girls to possibly end up with, but I will still be using one girl from each province.

The rules and form can be found on my profile, which I highly recommend reading. There is also some extra information about some of the characters on there as well to get to know the Royal Family and Connor, Alistair, and Everett more.
