Supremacy
Silvercrest's Royal Castle
King Edmund looks over the outlook of Silvercrest's Royal Castle.
King Edmund IV: Cumhersnatch, get here right now!
King Edmund is using the pinnacle of Supremian technology to communicate with Jacob Friedman in England by way of a rotary telephone.
King Edmund IV: No, Cumhersnatch. I am not going to have you beheaded! That's just preposterous!
Pause.
King Edmund IV: Why does it matter if my fingers are crossed!? That's none of your concern!
Pause.
King Edmund IV: Bah! What do you know!? I don't know what you call her, I will protect Jamie Lee Curtis from all those who mean harm!
Pause.
King Edmund IV: No, it's you who doesn't understand! It's not just about Ms. Curtis! It's also about me! It's about respect! It's about honor! It's about SUPREMIA!
Pause.
King Edmund IV: WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I'M SCREAMING!? IF I WANT TO SHOW YOU SCREAMING, YOU'LL HEAR SCREAMING! AND CUMHERSNATCH, I AM NOT-hello?
Pause.
King Edmund IV: ...Hello?
King Edmund angrily hangs up the phone. He turns to Mutt.
King Edmund IV: MUTT!
Mutt startles into obedience.
King Edmund IV: Last time I've heard from the AXW fans, they think of me as a JOKE. I've even heard them LAUGH at me before. LAUGH, I SAY, MUTT! Well, no more. They have only seen only a taste of Supremia. But once they see A GREAT NUMBER of Supremians, they will cower! ...And they will falter! ...AND THEY WILL BE FORCED TO RESPECT ME!
Mutt: ...
King Edmund IV: I DON'T REMEMBER ASKING YOUR OPINI- WAIT! Mutt, say that idea again?
Mutt: ...
King Edmund slaps Mutt across the face.
King Edmund IV: Mutt, that's a great idea! I will rally the troops! Now go. Go and prepare the people for I will show the people once more why Supremia will rule and conquer!
~A Few Hours Later~
King Edmund IV: SUPREMIA. HEAR ME!
And this is the group that is in front of King Edmund, his loyal subjects to whom he addresses. King Edmund sits atop a mighty stallion, whom gallops lefts and right as he speaks to the people. The only thing is that he's not actually atop a majestic horse; he is sitting on the shoulders of Mutt. King Edmund looks to his people:
...and this is closer to how the army closest to him actually is.
King Edmund IV: It has come to my attention that we have come under scrutiny. Supremia has been put into a position of embarrassment, and that's something we don't tolerate. ISN'T THAT RIGHT!?
Knights: NO, MY KING!
King Edmund IV: GOOD! ...Good. At Supremacy, all of you who have electricity within your homes will watch me tear down a man who's too much of a COWARD to show his face! ...And despite the fact that virtually none of you have electricity in your homes, it is nevertheless your duty to ensure that your KING succeeds!
Knights: YES, MY KING!
King Edmund IV: Supremacy is coming and so my orders are clear. YOU ARE TOO TAKE DOWN ANYONE WHO REFUSES TO SHOW THEIR FACE!
Knights: YES, MY KING!
The knights turn to each other and immediately unsheathe their blades. They immediately start swinging steel while shouting war cries.
King Edmund IV: Ye-Wait. No. NO! NO! MY SUBJECTS! STOP!
Slowly but surely, the soldiers come to a stop, and become pacified.
Mutt: ...
King Edmund IV: SHUT IT, MUTT! OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM IS JUST FINE!
The king's men start glancing toward one another.
King Edmund IV: So what I mean to say is once we get to Supremacy, you attack the masked man! Wait.
King Edmund begins to search through his pockets.
King Edmund IV: Attack THIS man!
King Edmund pulls out the picture:
King Edmund IV: So my men, who's with me?
Knights: WE ARE, MY KING!
King Edmund IV: FOR SUPREMIA!
Knights: FOR SUPREMIA! FOR SUPREMIA! FOR SUPREMIA!
The knights keep repeating this as the scene fades to an end.
