Behave or there'll be consequences (that I can't prove or disprove but trust me they're terrible and forever so just do as I say. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.).

The monarchy also is from a time of long ago and is created on a lot of pretty bad behaviours in the past. It also has no place in todays society
