History
6th May
The Prince of Wales and his sons were on the royal jet on course to London when the Martian ship entered the atmosphere, diverting to Madrid. Ancelyn was in Durham on a pilgrimage to the tomb of St Cuthbert when his sacred oath called him to protect the rightful sovereign of the Britons and their descendants. He headed to Balmoral with an SAS team to evacuate Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, with the submarine Prometheus waiting to take them to safety in Canada whilst other members of the royal family were being accounted for. (PROSE: The Dying Days)
7th May
At 10 o'clock, the third Martian Proclamation was given:
People of the United Kingdom. Your astronauts committed a terrible crime, through their ignorance. This should not be the way our races first meet. Let us put today behind us, and work together. We have much to offer one another. Your fellow human clans abandoned you, yet you fought for your beliefs. This we respect. We have talked to your Lord Greyhaven, he is a brave, bold man. Let us live in peace, people of the United Kingdom and Mars.
Aftermath
Having been deposed during the invasion, Queen Elizabeth II was restored to the British throne. Her second recoronation, the only recoronation in the history of the United Kingdom, was held on 23 November 1997. At this point, six months following the invasion, the whole incident was looked on as a distant memory. (PROSE: The Dying Days)
