It is the crowning of King Alfred as emperor, a recently anointed monarch of the United Kingdom of England. The palace was packed with some of the most influential people in the world, as well as knights, royal friends from other kingdoms in the area, and other notable figures. 

Everyone was having a good time thanks to the abundance of food, beverages, and entertainment, particularly the magicians who were doing some feats. 

Sir Fredrick said, "Please let's hear from the newly crowned monarch, King Alfred; we need some stillness in the house," which was the request that had been made by the previous speaker. 

The king stood up from his throne and smiled as he looked around the hall of the palace. The people inside the palace applauded for him as he walked out, while the crowd outside the palace continued to wait for the king to come and address them. Everyone kept quiet so they could hear what the king had to say. 

First, the monarch will address the assembled subjects in the palace's audience hall. 

"I am glad to be the King of England; my father, the late King David, did an excellent job of ruling the country; he looked out for the interests of the people; he was victorious in a great many wars; he was a man of peace; he is now with his ancestors; may the Lord have mercy on his soul." I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone in here today for standing with me. You really showed how you stand with me to be crowned king; I will continue the great work that was started by my father; I will protect the people of England with all that is in me; and I will work for the people in the same way that they will work for me. I want to take advantage of this opportunity. I pray that God will bless the people of England, and I pray that God will bless England. King Alfred then concluded his remarks. 

The subjects of the palace applauded and cheered for the king, including the queen, who remained seated on her throne even as she applauded for her husband. The prince and princess rose to their feet in order to applaud and cheer for their father. 

King Alfred requested that he be allowed to address his subjects outside the palace. 

He proceeded to the outside corridor in order to speak with the people (citizens) of England who are located outside of the palace of the king. The king, the queen, the prince, and the princess left the palace, followed by the knight and many members of the palace council; the guests, including the king of Rome, the king of Paris, other queens, and many more, remained inside the palace to continue eating. 

The atmosphere was filled with pleasure as soon as the crowned saw their new king, and they immediately yelled, shouted, and blew whistles at him. 

The king's spokesperson reiterated to the audience, "All hail the new king of England, the son of King David, King Alfred," as King Alfred was crowned. 

"May the king live forever! Hail, and may the king live on!"Hail, and may the king live on!" A chorus arises from the throng. 

"It is an honor to be standing here in the presence of the great people of England, and I am happy to see you all here cheering for me." You all know my father very well, and you all know that he is a good man who ruled with honesty, truth, integrity, and love. A good man of his caliber shouldn't leave this world, but the Lord knows it all, and he went to meet his ancestors. I am standing here in your presence to promise you all that King Alfred addressed the people in his kingdom with a few words. 

As soon as he finished his speech, everybody started cheering; the king was very happy; the drummers started beating the drums; and the people started dancing. The party kept going. The monarch, his family, and the palace staff all made their way back inside the palace to greet the guests who had come to see him. 

The late King David had only one child, who later became King Alfred. King Alfred had two children, Prince Oliver and Princess Emma. The late King David's wife passed away many years ago after a long battle with cancer. 

The new king met the king of France, King Edwards, and the two of them exchanged greetings. King Edwards then congratulated the new king and gave him a present before bidding him farewell and sending him back to his own country. The king of Rome, André, comes face-to-face with King Alfred; in addition to congratulating him, he gives King Alfred a gift before the latter continues on his journey to return to his homeland. 

The other notable figures in the palace presented a gift to the newly crowned monarch before departing with their armies, horses, and villagers to return to their homes in their own nations. 

After three days of the coronation, Queen Ruth of England went to the market with her son, Prince Oliver, to buy some stuff with the palace guards. The people at the market, both male and female, were surprised to see their queen shopping by herself, and a man rushed to the queen as soon as he saw her from afar. The palace guards also accompanied the queen. 

"Long live the queen, my queen is quite unpopular to see the queen coming to the market to do shopping by herself, I will offer my daughter, who will be eighteen years old, to work for the palace, at least to ease the stress from the queen," the man said to the queen. "I will offer my daughter, who will be eighteen years old, to work for the palace, at least to ease the stress from the queen." 

The guy was unable to get close enough to the queen because the guards were in the way, and the queen pauses while she listens to the man make his proposal. 

"I acknowledge your interest in the queen and the palace, but the palace has a lot of maids doing the chores; I decide to do this myself, at least to get to see my people and how the market is going. I don't want to turn your offer down; bring your daughter tomorrow to the palace; I will make her my daughter's personal maid," the queen said to the man. "I acknowledge your interest in the queen and the palace, but the palace has a lot of maids doing the chores." The guy is informed by Ruth. 

The expression on the man's face conveys his level of contentment; he expressed gratitude to the monarch, and he departed full of enthusiasm; the prince was there and aware of the whole exchange. 

Prince Oliver confronts his mother with the following question: "I don't have a personal maid, mum; you just got one for my sister; she's not even here; how convinced are you that she needs a maid?" 

He was content with the response that his mother gave to the guy, but he was unhappy with the fact that his mother accepted it for the princess. 

"I believe that your sister requires the assistance of a maid. You, too, will require the assistance of a maid; however, you do not require the assistance of a female maid. This is due to the fact that you will accompany the maid on excursions such as traveling or visiting haunted locations. I am familiar with you and know that you enjoy visiting haunted locations. You require the assistance of a male maid. I will not find you a maid; you are responsible for finding one on your own. The response of the queen, Ruth 

Prince Oliver did not utter another word after that; he was at a loss for words in response to his mother's instruction to find himself a maid of his choosing. The queen was exhausted from all of the walking, so the guard brought a horse to the front of the line. The guard helped the queen mount the horse, and as they rode slowly away from the market, they carried some of the items that they had purchased there. 

The king and the elders were now participating in a council meeting that was taking place in the palace. 

The rate of witchcraft in the country had been regulated by the previous king, but the current king, Alfred, believes it will be dangerous for him to leave the witches still living in the country because they will fight him for the throne if he does not eliminate them.
