The New Norsvean Head of State

A woman, elegantly figured, walked down the streets of Stockholm. She wore a black dress, making people think she was in mourning. Her long red hair made her stick out amongst the other women of Norsvea. As she walked along the apartments district, she stepped into an apartment building near the waterfront. She walked upstairs to a penthouse style suit, the door decorated by the Nordlandic flag. She knocked twice on the door and leaned against the opposite wall, arms crossed.

The door opened slightly to reveal a dark room. She stepped inside and the door was shut. Suddenly, a voice was heard.

"What makes the grass grow?"

"Blood," she said in a sultry voice. Suddenly, the lights were turned on. Erik was standing by the door wearing a t-shirt and jeans, and Hærenmarschall Oppøre was sitting at the table on the phone with his generals.

"It appears the war is over, Lady Sjkønhet," Oppøre said.

"I have heard. I have also heard you are in need of a new leader for Norsvea. I am willing to take that role."

"What about Magnus?" Erik asked.

"It appears he wasn't as strong a man as I thought. He just up and left."

"True, but how will the people respond to a female leader?"

"If Distopya is as progressive as a society as I thought..."

"Distopya," Erik laughed, "is a sham." He walked around her to face her. "It was only a ploy to get us on good relations with the Nordland haters to allow us to have this place. Now that Nordland's enemies are gone, we can come out of the woodwork."

"Hm. Well Erik, then why don't you take control again?"

"Because I have already proven myself to be incompetent."

"Won't they forgive you?"

"The citizens are not something I am worried about. My fellow diplomats and statesmen are the ones that I have to be forgiven from."

"Change your name," Danica said, "You already look like you've...filled out."

Erik blushed, "Uh...yeah," he scratched the back of his head. Danica laughed and kissed him on the cheek. She walked over to sit at the table opposite Oppøre.

"So Marschall, what would it take for me to announce my reign as Kaisarin?"

Oppøre shook his head, "Not much, just hold a press conference and announce that you have divorced Niklas and intend to lead this nation to the best of your abilities. Legally, you already are the leader. The people just don't know it yet."

"Oh, alright," she laughed, "I guess I need to look over the constitution."

*********

"My fellow Norsveans. Today, you are addressed by your new Empress. I have announced my divorce from Niklas, as it appears he has dissapeared from the proverbial radar. For those of you distressed about my reign, do not worry, as it is only temporary. Heil Norsvea."
