Chapter Thirty: Royal Duties

'When Adam's Flesh and Adam's bone sits in Cair Paravel in throne, the evil time will be over and done.' Mr. Beaver, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Disney/Walden Media)

Location: Kingsford Smith Airport, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, Earth
Time: June 1994 CE

The specially adapted Airbus A319 touched down on Runway 07 at Kingsford Smith Airport in Sydney piloted by Squadron Leader Remus Lupin, Marquess Desgrange and Lord Lupin and Flight Lieutenant Maria Andrews of No. 32 (The Royal) Squadron, RAF, carrying Her Majesty the Queen and Their Royal Highness The Duke and Duchess of Gryffindor and various staff. This landing ended the third and final leg of a flight from Heathrow in London.

As the plane came to a stop, a white 1994 Holden VR Commodore SS station wagon emblazoned with the livery of the New South Wales Police Service and the bonnet code "MLE" pulled up next to it, and two uniformed officers stepped out, saluting the three Royals as they descended the steps from the plane. 'Your Majesty, Your Highnesses, I am Chief Inspector Liam Johnston, and this is Senior Sergeant Joanne MacAllister of the New South Wales State Magical Law Enforcement Patrol. Welcome to Australia. If you would follow us to the car we will take you to your accommodation at Kirribilli House.' The male officer introduced himself and his partner, before gesturing to the wagon.

Harry followed his Grandmum and bondmate into the wagon and smiled as he discovered the inside of the seemingly normal police station wagon looked more like the inside of a limousine. 'I love magic.' he muttered as the door was closed and Chief Inspector Johnston started the car and began the drive across Sydney.

Harry and Lucy looked on in awe as the car drove across the Sydney Harbour Bridge, showing on one side a wide view of Sydney Harbour, and on the other, the railway, and beyond that Darling Harbour and the Parramatta River.

Location: Studio 1, TCN-9 News and Finance Centre, Willoughby, New South Wales, Australia, Earth
Time: June 1994 CE

Television screens now flickered slightly as the muggle news ended and a short magical update played before the presenter signed off.

'...and in magical news now, the Queen, the Duke and Duchess of Gryffindor arrived in Sydney today where the Queen will visit the Australian Magical Parliament before returning to England. The Duke and Duchess will tour New South Wales and Victoria during their summer holidays... and that's the way it is, this Friday the 10th of June, this is Brian Henderson...Goodnight.'

Location: Chambers of the Australian Magical Parliament, Headquarters of the Australian Ministry of Magic, under Martin Place, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, Earth
Time: June 1994 CE

Harry and Lucy watched from the visitors gallery in the Chambers of the Australian Magical Parliament as the House of Representatives filed into the room, taking their seats, before waiting for the Wizenagamot to file in, sitting in seats at the back of the specially expanded Chamber, just for this one event, the State Opening of Parliament.

Shortly after all the Members of the Parliament found their seats, they stood as the Queen walked into the Chamber, expression full of solemnity as she took her seat at the front of the Chamber, preparing for the age old ceremony that was about to begin.

The Minister for Magic stood and started the ceremony by welcoming the Queen. 'Your Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Your Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Gryffindor, Members of the Wizenagamot, Members of Parliament, Other Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen...It gives me great pleasure to be the Minister for Magic on this auspicious occasion, the first ever State Opening of the Australian Magical Parliament by the Monarch of Australia. I would now like to invite Her Majesty the Queen to start the ceremony.'

Harry watched boredly as the Australians went through a bit of pomp and ceremony, the magicals enjoying closer ties to the throne than the mundanes, or muggles, did. The elected politicians and the Australian Lords Wizenagamot watched on as the Queen delivered her Speech from the Throne, stating neutrally the aims of the government for the coming parliamentary session. '...My Lords and Members of the House of Commons, I pray that the blessing of Almighty God may rest upon your counsels.' The Queen concluded, before the Lords Wizenagamot stood and filed from the Chamber, bowing to the Queen as they proceeded past her throne.

Time: June 1994 CE

Harry, Lucy and Remus had seen the Queen off back to England earlier that morning, while they were staying in Australia for their holiday. At Remus' insistence, the trio now found themselves sitting in the Members Stand at the Sydney Cricket Ground watching a game of "Australian Football". Remus had been stationed in Melbourne in his early years in the RAF and had developed a taste for the sport, following the hugely successful Hawthorn Hawks, a team which were today, destroying the home team, the Sydney Swans. While Harry enjoyed the spectacle, he just didn't see how this game could compare to Quidditch, and was looking forward to the Australian Quidditch League match they would be watching the next day, south of Sydney in the Illawarra.

En route to: Melbourne Southern Cross, via Albury
Time: June 1994 CE

Harry and Lucy found themselves sharing a first class compartment with Remus, on the train south from Moss Vale, where they had boarded after watching a bruising Quidditch match between the top two teams of the AQL, the victorious Wollongong Warriors, and the unfortunate Thunderlarra Thunderers. The young royals and their entourage were now en route to the Victorian capital of Melbourne, with a short stop in the City of Albury which had the largest magical shopping district in Eastern Australia outside of a capital city.

Location: Vertik Alley, Lavington, New South Wales, Australia, Earth
Time: June 1994 CE

The thing that had certainly surprised Harry and Lucy the most about Australia so far was the almost casual mixing of magical and mundane as they were driven from the Albury railway station to Vertik Alley, the local magical shopping district in Lavington, in the back of another NSW Police State Magical Law Enforcement Patrol car.

All along the Alley, signs gave prices for items not only in the universal wizarding currency of galleons, sickles and knuts, but also in Australian dollars and British pounds! At the end of the Alley was a branch of Gringotts Australia, with signs proclaiming the exchange rate;

1 G = £4.97 = A$7.93
1 s = £0.29 = A$0.46
1 k = £0.01 ≈ A$0.02 (A$0.015)

Not only were there magical stores selling Quidditch supplies and potions equipment and magic books, but there were mundane stores too, selling other books, and electronics (magically shielded of course) and even a car yard! The most surprising of all was that next to Mary MacKillop Magical Hospital was a food court with not only magical shops but a McDonalds, Pizza Hut and La Porchetta.

Harry and Lucy soon found themselves in the electronics store, buying 15 magically shielded laptop computers, a bargain at 100 G each, one for each of them and their friends, and a magically shielded printer for their office at Hogwarts. The shop owner gladly sent 13 of the computers and the printer to the International Mail Terminal in Sydney to be portkeyed to Buckingham Palace for them. They spent another three hours exploring Vertik Alley, stopping for dinner at La Porchetta before their MLE escort informed them it was time to return to the railway station to continue their journey to Melbourne where they would spend a couple of days before returning to Sydney to fly back to London.

Once again Harry and Lucy were in a first class compartment on an XPT thundering through the Australian countryside onwards to Southern Cross Station in Melbourne. They watched as the train passed the site of Australia's most famous bushranger, Ned Kelly's last stand. Both Harry and Lucy could barely see the old station and the tourist information centre through the gloom of night, the lights inside having been extinguished not long after the stop in Wangaratta and the sun still not quite peeking over the horizon. There were still over two hours left until the train would reach Melbourne, but neither Royal could sleep and so they busied themselves playing cards as the train continued onwards towards the sunrise.

Time: June 1994 CE

Harry and Lucy stepped off the XPT at 7:30 in the morning and collected their luggage from the front of the train as they walked out into the dull gloomy morning of a wintry Melbourne day. The pair, along with chaperone Remus were soon on a tram to visit the Queen Victoria Markets in Carlton, keen to make the most of their three days in Melbourne.

Location: Queen Victoria Markets, Carlton, Victoria, Australia, Earth
Time: June 1994 CE

Harry had been to the bustling markets on the planet Shan Shen, he'd been with the Doctor when he went on his tenth incarnation's farewell tour, he'd been to a million billion different places, but even he had to admit that it was amazing what you could find in a human market on Earth. So far strolling around the markets with Lucy, Remus and two Victorian State Magical Law Enforcement Patrol officers, he had spotted six aliens, a time travelling cyborg Time Agent and an Auton, or Nestene duplicate.

'Harry! Look at this!' Lucy called over to him, giggling as she showed him a white threadbare teddy bear in a green and silver woollen jumper. 'It's a Draco Malfoy teddy bear!' Harry couldn't contain a snort. Even though Draco was a friend, he acted pompous around other Slytherins and Harry had to admit that the teddy looked a bit like Draco.

Four days later, the young royals and their entourage were once again escorted across Kingsford Smith Airport by Chief Inspector Johnston and Senior Sergeant MacAllister, this time back to the royal Airbus A319.
