It's a new day... enough trading self-styled insults with a pretentious Dwarf...
Although, for the record, I am aware that Imperial is considered to be a higher term than Royal, but I deliberately chose to use Royal because: A. I like it better. B. It's more correctly Gondorian. C. Imperial is a term that references Empire- and thus relates to people who rule Empires. It has nothing to do with the nobility of birth, whereas Royal is derived from the French "Roi"- or King, and is thus directly connected to the nobility of one's station. (And, for those who have nothing better to do than listen to me chatter, there is a bit of a family legend on my Mom's Mom's Dad's side of the family that we are descended from a Prince Michael. Thus, I have some very slight, nefariously pretentious claim to real royalty. Those with proper pedigrees need not apply. )Once more into the breach, eh my dear Morm? ++ Belladonna "The Evil" Took
