With only one year left of access to Minecraft Creative Mode, I knew what had to be done next. I needed to bring my Kingdom alive in a sense.
I needed to populate the Kingdom. To have things moving and working for me.
I opened the Villager Spawning GUI, the special tool provided by the Minecraft modded system, and carefully began filling the empty homes, apartments, and buildings I had built across the islands. Each iindiviual had a person and job to do.
One by one, they appeared across the lands and islands.
Humans, all manner of Cats and K9 beast Kin. From predators to regular animals. Like a Lion beast-kin to a cat beast-kin. The only beast kinds to appear were the two arctypes. I had no clue why, but it was fine.
People of all races and backgrounds—each one loyal to the crown, and more importantly, loyal to me. Damon Wolfstein, their founding king of Dusk Light Kingdom. I'm bad at names and saw it fit because it relates to Sunset Sea somehow.
Each building, district, and profession was filled as there were needed.
Farmers tilled the fields, grew food, medical plants, flowers, cotton, other stuff, and raised livestock.
Engineers and miners worked in the mountains, and I have them look after my creations so far. Also, to work and fix things.
Cooks, cleaners, artisans, and blacksmiths brought towns to life.
Teachers and doctors filled the schools and clinics.
Fishermen cast their lines from the ports.
Soldiers and sailors reported to the Navy and military bases.
Scholars, mages, nurses, scientists, and builders staffed the colleges and boot camps
Even the castle—once cold and quiet—became a lively beacon of activity. Royal guards, attendants, staff, and advisors now filled the halls. I could sit on my throne and see a towering lion beast-kin standing proud in royal armor.
Human knights at attention, ready to serve and protect their king.
Human scribes updating logs and laws.
Beast-kin children giggled as they ran through the palace garden, as their parents worked.
All people were equal here.
There were no slaves. No discrimination. No fear.Only unity, purpose, and a shared dream of peace and progress.
Then came the laws.
I sat down in my royal study and wrote the Royal Code—a complete legal system built from what I remembered of Earth's best ideals, with my spin:
Equal rights for all. The right to love who you love because I'm gay here, and it's my country, my laws.
Free education and healthcare.
No exploitation of workers or children.
Magic users regulated, but not persecuted. If the use of black magic, blood magic, or magic used to harm will be prosecuted to the extent of the law. Magic evolved from Iron Spell's n' Spellbook. It became its own in this country. It evolved by having magical tiers, where magic circles appear when you can use magic, and the different magical rings that appear around your heart, like from some action manhwa. Ranging from 1 circle to the 9th circle magician. I happily say I'm a 5-circle magician. I had to work hard and study my ass to get there. I even have a 9-circle magician employed as the court magician. The man was an elder grey wolf beast kin. I also employed an 8-circle healer. She was an experienced healer older woman as well have her family doctor's license in internal medicine.
No weapons of mass destruction (guns, nukes, etc.)—only trained weapons for defense like the rest of the world, for a few exceptions like the cannons on ships. Some things were replaced with landscaping, changing because of the magic users.
Environmental protection laws, Gotta keep our land clean and not smelling like shit.
Clear paths for citizenship, service, and representation. However, for future immigrants, they will have to undergo a background check, medical check, and receive vaccinations.
Loyalty to the crown, not blind obedience. However, it wouldn't be a problem for my people because they are naturally loyal to the max.
Departments were named and staffed. I appointed ministers and advisors.
Agriculture Minister to oversee food production and farming.
Defense Minister is to control the military and navy that is under my supreme command as the commander-in-chief. Basically, they are the general.
Health Minister is to manage hospitals and clinics, health safety, and the issuing of licenses to practice and licenses to use healing magic on people.
Education Minister is to guide the schools and colleges. Making sure everything is up to date and standards with new findings and such.
Minsiter of Finance was created to look after the country's budget under my scrutiny. Along with minty, which produces gold wolf, silver dawn, and bronze dusk as the currency of this land. The national bank was created as well, and through the creation of the magical atm and magical credit card created by a rune master by the name of Luke Valen, who is a human male that works as a professor of runes at the College of Twilight.
The demon of all departments. The IRS has been created to keep an eye on income tax, taxes owed to the crown, and all forms of taxes. Gotta keep the money flowing and circling.
The Department of Social Security, retirement funds, other benefits, and food assistance programs were created as well.
Magical Research Council to study spells safely and study them while safe and sound. They also guide the magians of the kingdom with the assistance of the court magician I appoint. They also issue licenses to practice magic and to be used in the military and navy.
Foreign Affairs Envoy for when the outside world inevitably finds us, or mostly when my people and I find them first.
Libraries were filled with books from Earth's knowledge and discoveries from this world. However, some things were left out that was outlawed or I have not created within my time so far.
Magical grimoires sat next to science textbooks. Cookbooks rested beside medical manuals. And every citizen had access to them if they had a library card.
In a matter of months, my kingdom became a living, breathing world. It now had a life of its own.
Roads buzzed with carts, trains, and travelers.
Festivals and markets bloomed in the cities.
Soldiers drilled in formation while children played by the rivers, parks, and walked home from school.
Priests prayed to the old gods and the weird-looking trees with faces that appeared. I guess it was fine. It is progress, kindness, and unity.
The navy patrolled the Sunset Sea, keeping watch for sea serpents, karens, and other beasts of the sea.
Young mages practiced in safe zones, under careful guidance.
And I, Damon Wolfstein, ruled it all—not as a tyrant, but as a symbol.
Not a boy.
A king, who was now 10 years old, practiced his fighting skills every day and kept his mind sharp as a sword. I even practice magic to reach new heights in battle powers to keep safe. Each day, I grow and enjoy my new life. I'm no longer lonely when I have people to talk to, and I don't overwork due to dividing my work with my loyal subjects.
Life was going great and in this new life.
