Chapter 337 Official Recognition of the Queendom



While leisurely walking in the palace\'s gardens, like Mark did, the archbishop seemed to point out that the dragon statue resembled the descriptions of the Ancient Dragon of Light from the ancient scriptures. We just provided him with the same explanation I gave Mark, but we were not sure if it worked for him. The day after, we went to the opera house of the palace and watched some performances. Rick and the Rickrolls and I ourselves performed our pieces as well. I originally planned to release music in this world, but since Rick\'s incarnation, I passed down the responsibilities to him so I had been releasing musical pieces less frequent than ever. On the fourth day of their visit, on a good morning, the time to tackle the matters regarding our declaration of independence as well as establishing our own nation had finally come. In front of dozens of media personnel from the nations of the northern continent, the representatives of the empire and the Raevender Marquisate had gathered in the gaudily decorated Hall of Mirrors to finalize a treaty between the two states. There were three tables in the hall. A small table and two long tables. The smaller table was placed at the center of the hall, where Mother, Marchioness Mylene Raevender, and Emperor Jeffrey Dixon were carefully reading the papers in their hands, checking every detail of the agreement. The two elongated tables were set beside the small one, forming a U-shape arrangement like that of a diplomatic summit. The left represented the empire, while the high echelons of the marquisate sat at the right. "..."

The spectators silently stared at them as the scribbling sounds of journalists\' pencils subtly intensified the silence. No one in the hall had uttered a word since the beginning of the treaty. "Very well." The emperor was the one who spoke first. Soon after, Mother started stacking the papers and jogging them before gently placing the documents on the ebony table. "Marchioness Mylene Raevender, we have been observing this city for days, and let me tell you, it is a beautiful one." "We greatly appreciate your words, Your Imperial Majesty." Mother said with a broad smile. "You have built roads throughout the Great Forest of Darkness that provide safe journeys for the travelers in the forest. The city itself is big, larger than the Imperial Capital City of Jeffer itself, which could potentially provide shelters to millions of people. This city may yet be incomplete, but I can easily see it becoming a vital trade center on the continent in due time." The emperor stood up from his seat, and so did Mother.

"And for that reason, I, Emperor Jeffrey Dixon, hereby officially acknowledge the independence of the Marquisate of Raevender and its separation from the Empire of Dixon. From this day on, the 20th day of Pisces, Year 990, the establishment of the Queendom of Raevender has been legally approved by the representatives of the Empire of Dixon."

After his formal announcement to the audience and the media, His Imperial Majesty turned to the side to face Mother. "Lady Mylene Raevender—no, Queen Mylene Raevender, I hope for the prosperity of your nation and will be rewarded with riches and bounties any nation deserves." The emperor offered his hand as he said those words. "Additionally, would the Queendom of Raevender accept an alliance with the Empire of Dixon?" "The Queendom would be glad to take this offer... Emperor Jeffrey Dixon." "Hmm." Surprised by how a fellow ruler addressed him, the emperor grinned. "So we have terms then." With that, Mother took and shook His Imperial Majesty\'s hand. A round of applause broke out in the hall to commemorate the establishment of the Queendom of Raevender as well as the alliance formed between the two nations. To legally officialize the pact, the emperor and the queen signed the contracts and showed them to the audience and the journalists in front. In the agreement, even though the capital of the Queendom was in the forest, it did not mean that we would have the entire Great Forest of Darkness as the extent of our domain. It was stated in the agreement that our territory only contained the area two hundred kilometers from the circumference of the city and another two hundred kilometers from the road. Our domain could be expanded further by building additional cities or towns and trade routes in the unclaimed lands of the forest. Regarding the contents of the alliance, some of the terms were as follows: a nonaggressional treaty with each other. Building of trade routes between two nations, in short, the transit system. Assistance is needed whenever one nation is in danger, whether logistically, finally, or militarily. And more.

The alliance benefited both the empire and the queendom. But more importantly, with this special recognition from the empire, this would greatly help us with our future negotiations with other realms. In addition, our nation would have the backing of the empire, so making an enemy of us was akin to bearing fangs against the empire. "Queen Mylene, may I ask if you already came up with the name of this nation\'s capital anyway?" The emperor asked a natural question as soon as they finished shaking hands. Upon hearing that, Mother gave our family a look, as did all of us to one another. But every time a gaze hit her, my sister immediately got embarrassed. Of course, we decided to name the capital city based on her name. "For the name of this city, we decided to name it in honor of my daughter, the crown princess. From now on, the capital city of the Queendom of Raevender is now called... Louisiana."
