The New King Finds a Common Ground With Her Subjects

"Why, this may surprise you, but my scientists tell me we breathe something like the same air and that our body chemistries operate on similar principles. Remarkable, yes? We are akin, they tell me, the way you are akin to the apes or cockroaches. I'm often reminded, too, when I'm out 'amongst the people' that we eat much the same food, although I only eat what I kill with my bare hands or arrows or machine guns or helicopter blades whereas you, as a slovenly species, eats only what it finds encased in plastic or jellied or frozen. I eat only what is drenched in its own humid blood."
