Just a little one-shot, with the ruler of my country in a NationStates RP. Enjoy!
Long Titles
The Ruler of the Holy Roman Empire, Wilhelm I, looked up at the throne were the ruler of his captors sat.
He had been captured a few days ago, on his way to Iberia. He had wanted to visit a friend of his father's, the Emperor of Iberia, maybe discuss a secret alliance against the Swedish Empire, but his ships was destroyed in a storm just after it left the Elbe. Then he was washed ashore on what he first thought was Helgoland, but that was quickly proven false. The people here spoke English, not the Frisian or Plattdeutsch he had expected.
They locked him in a cell, and then said him they would lead him before their Queen.
And here he stood, an Emperor before a Queen, dressed in rags he had become in the cell while his normally good looking dark brown hair was dirty. But, he still stood upright and with confidence.
"You stand in the presence of Daenerys Stormborn of the House Targaryen, Rightful Heir to the Iron Throne, Rightful Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Protector of the Seven Kingdoms, the Mother of Dragons, the Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, the Unburnt, the Breaker of Chains." Said a dark skinned, dark haired woman at the bottom of the stairs leading to the throne. The woman on the throne was a strong contrast to her, with her light skin and silver-blond hair.
Both women looked at him expecting something, but he was still deep in thought about the titles. Iron Throne? the Andals and the First Men? Seven Kingdoms? and most interesting Mother of Dragons!
As the woman that spoke the titles cleared her throat it took Wilhelm away from his thought. He looked at her, and she said "and who are you?"
Now he understood, they wanted to introduce himself. He could do that. He began like the woman who spoke to him.
"You are in the presence of Wilhelm the First of the house of Caesar, by the grace of god Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation, Romanorum Imperator Augustus, King of the Germans, King of Italy, King of Denmark, King of the Netherlands, King of Belgium and King of South Africa. Protector of Panama, Lord of the North Sea, Lord of Iceland, Lord of Riga, Lord of Gotland, Mayor Lübeck and High Councillor of the Hanseatic Trade League. Guardian of the Belts and the Øresund, Grandmaster of the Teutonic Order of Knights, Grand Admiral of the Imperial Fleet, Captain of the Adler von Lübeck and General-Fieldmarshall of the Imperial Army. Satisfied?"
The last bit was directed directly at the Queen on the Throne, who looked... Jealous? Maybe because he had more titles? Well, nothing could be done about that.
"Where am I?" he asked. Hopefully he would learn something useful.
