The fictional government

A crown that
cannot command you.

The monarchy gives the story a face. The charter keeps that face from becoming more important than the people.

The King

A character with one job.

The King of Moon Kingdom is not a real monarch. He grants no legal titles and claims no territory. His role is to protect the founding rule: this project must remain useful to human beings.

He cannot own the fund, rewrite its records or place himself above the charter. If the story ever becomes more interested in luxury than service, the story has failed.

The offices

The Crown

Keeps the story alive and signs each public round of help.

The Public Book

Records what came in, what it cost to process and what reached people.

The Citizens

Suggest needs, question decisions and refuse to let the project hide behind spectacle.

The Small Print

States the truth clearly. This is a creative project, not a sovereign state, legal nationality or charity.

The short charter

A person comes before a passport.

Nationality can describe where somebody lives. It cannot describe what their life is worth.

Help must not become a performance.

Consent and privacy matter more than a photograph. Proof can be published without humiliating the person receiving support.

There is no enemy here.

A community should not need somebody to hate in order to feel united.
