The Rogue Regent

Once upon a time there was a heart mummy who had too much time on her hands. She was waiting so long for her Rogue Regent that sometimes she got bored… So do you know what she did?

She went Shopping!!

In fact every time she thought of the Rogue Regent she would go and buy something else for the Rogue Regents bedchamber. (A bedchamber is where a prince or princess sleeps.)

You see this heart Mama was a Queen. She was called the Rogue Queen and she was married to the King, he was called King Gold Crown because when he yawned you could see gold in his mouth.

Anyway the King and Queen had been married for a very long time when they decided it was time for another person to come and live at the Castle with them and Mr Darcy. (Mr Darcy was only a cat but he thought he was a prince.)

This person had to be someone special, not just any old somebody but someone really special. So the King and Queen sent their best messengers out to scour the world for a special person who would be the Prince or Princess of Roguedom. These messengers were called Dokswurkas and they were sent out to search every town and city for the Rogue Regent. (The regent is what you call the son or daughter of the King and Queen). 

But finding that perfect Regent takes a really long time so the King and Queen had to wait and wait. 

Then when they thought that they could wait no more…

they waited some more.

Ho Hum said the Rogue Queen I am going shopping

Ho Hum said King Gold Crown I am going to work

Ho Hum  meowed Mr Darcy I am going to sleep

Many years went by and suddenly there appeared at the castle gate a tired and dirty Dokswurka. He begged the King to give him some food and water because he had travelled so far looking for the Rogue Regent. He told a tale of how he had travelled all the way to the land of Hanyu.

And who do you think he found in Hanyu?

That’s right he found the Rogue Regent.

Oh How the King and Queen jumped for joy. Even Mr Darcy raised his paws and danced about.

 The Rogue Regent had been found!!

What a celebration there was to be in the castle that night. 

‘Wait’ cried the weary Dokswurka. “You can not see the Rogue Regent yet. The Rogue Regent is not allowed to leave Hanyu until the Hanyu King gives his approval. This could take many months and so you must be patient.” 

Well that was not the news the Rogue Royals were hoping to hear.

Oh Dear cried the Rogue Queen I am going shopping

Oh Dear cried King Gold Crown I am going to work

Oh Dear meowed Mr Darcy I am going to sleep 

 So with cobwebs beginning to appear in the Royal Regents bedchamber and grey hairs growing from Rogue Queens head and white hairs growing from King Gold Crowns beard and not least of all Mr Darcy’s whiskers are turning white the Rogue Royals wait and wait for the King of Hanyu to give his permission for the Royal Regent to travel across the ocean to take their place in the Castle of Rouse in the Kingdom of Rogue.
