I nearly forgot to mention one of the highlights of the final court of the outgoing royals.

duke_flieg came forward to make an announcement about the West Kingdom Welcoming Committee, and when he was done Her Majesty told him that he did not have leave to depart. She then commented that while he had a lovely new undertunic on, his overtunic was ratty, and he commanded him to take it off. Which he did (with the accompaniment of much wisteling/cheering/laughter from the crowd). Then she summoned the people who had been working on the secret project, and she bid them to cloth the duke. They did, covering him with a beautiful new overtunic embellished with both hand woven edging and embroidery between the woven bits of trim, and a stunning cloak, with much embroidery, and a very, very nice haversack with lots more beautiful embroidery. Clearly, the duke is loved. Many people laboured on the set, and their efforts combined to a truly amazing result.
