Daa Daaaaaaaaaa~!
Horns akin to trumpets blared out, breaking any silence the day might have had otherwise as a menagerie form en masse outside the gates of the palace. The crowds were few, but the soldier were out in a grand display of force, taking formation in two separate rows before the gate. Atop the stairs, just before the gate, sat a temporary throne; sitting upon it, none other than Zuqetta with a dutiful eye as she oversaw the proceedings. From the stairs, outstretched a fair length before her was an extravagant red carpet; the solider did well not to step upon the carpet as they held formation upon both sides.
Three rows of at least twenty Saiyans per row stood on each side of the red carpet, making for six rows in total. In the first row nearest the carpet, each soldier held a flag pole in hand, the flag upon said pole pitch black with a silver crest of the Saiyan Empire. In the second row were the Saiyans with the horns, practicing their assigned craft; in all honestly, they sounded pretty terrible, but would be passable if they only needed to play the two notes. Behind them in the final row were soldiers merely standing at attention, filling the ranks to make the display seem ever more impressive. Each and every soldier however, regardless of task, wore a brilliant white uniform similar in design to the uniform Zuqetta had issued to Jagaimo. These soldiers after all, were none other than the Royal Guard, freshly redeployed with soldiers hand picked by Zuqetta herself.
All that remained was... why? It was a question many passing Saiyans had; previous Kings and Queens hardly put on such a display after all, so why was Zuqetta doing such a thing? Was it merely a mild abuse of power? To a degree, that was exactly the case; Zuqetta had been preparing for this day since she took the throne, the city was cleaner than usual, the atmosphere lighter, and the day itself was clear allowing for the usually red sky to be a bit brighter and pink. Today was the day Calot was to arrive for a visit, it wouldn't be only him however, as accompanying him would be the mysterious, but much spoken of Ayu!
"Okay gang! I think that's the best we're gonna get on such short notice!" Zuqetta would call out, bringing an end to their two hours of practice, "Take a quick break, but be prepared, the Royal Advisor and his plus one could be here any moment!"
The Guards would noticeably relax, their muscles sore and stiff from maintaining the same posture for so long. Zuqetta herself, hummed happily as she sat on her throne, looking off towards the horizon with excitement. She never thought she'd be entertaining guests as the ruling monarch of all things, yet here she was; and though the changes made since she'd taken over were still few, she was incredibly pleased with it all.
There were of course incidents here and there, like the reoccurring break in's of the palace, and Tulse vandalizing the walls with spray paint of all things. Zuqetta expected backlash against her however, especially with how she'd been trying to change things; as such, she held nothing against the recent misconduct of her people. Perhaps it wasn't the best course of action to be so lenient, but Calot was her advisor for just such a reason; for the moment, with was only she and Jagaimo discussing things, until the council she had planned was ready, Zuqetta could only try her best.
And her best in THIS moment, was ensuring Calot and Ayu arrived to fanfare! The guards might have been relaxing now, but they'd be prepared to resume their formation at a moments notices. Upon the arrival of the two, they'd be greeted by a display of raised flags and sounding horns, along with the carpet they would walk upon as they approached the palace. Zuqetta had to do all she could to contain her excitement; it may not have been as extravagant as she'd have liked, but it was still like something out of a storybook! It was perfect!
