KINGS CITY, San Myshuno (SNN) - - Queen Katherine I and Prince Rainier had an audience with Pope Francis XVI at the Vatisim on Thursday. The pope expressed his “deepest personal esteem” for the queen for bearing “the weight of such vast responsibilities with so much simplicity and dignity.”

Francis Benedict XVI, the Holy Pope, is Chief Pastor of the worldwide Cathlosim Church and Head of The State of King’s City in San Myshuno. It was the first time Queen Katherine met Pope Francis and she took with her on the plane home gifts for the royal children. Pope Francis also handed the queen a precious stone brooch with a cross on it.

His late Majesty King George I visited the pope during an informal visit the month before his passing.

Queen Katherine was invited for a formal visit and was greeted by Dean of the College of Cardinals, Abraham Criste, one of three Cardinal bishops.

Nathan Banks, Windenburg's ambassador to the Holy See, described the visit as a "reaffirmation" of the ties between the Holy See and the UK, noting that it was taking place in the centenary year of the formal re-establishment of diplomatic relations between the two.

However, the visit was not without its potential tensions. Ronald Jacobs, a papal expert at the University of Reading, said: "Thursday's meeting comes at a time when, on the surface, relations between the Cathlosim church and the Church of Windenburg are at an all-time high. But dig a little deeper and issues arise."

He singled out the C of W's ordination of female priests and push for female bishops. Another issue that some said could have set the two heads of state on a collision course is the status of the Manushkin Islands, the Windenburg territory in the Simmy Channel over which Windenburg and Mt Komorebi went to war in 1979.

Queen Katherine (wearing Princess Amelia's Fife Fringe tiara, Queen Lara-Leigh's 4-strand pearl necklace, the Order of the Garter, and the Royal Family Order of King George I) and the Prince consort (in the Order of the Garter) joined Cardinal Criste and the other two Cardinal bishops, Walter Tesmond and Luke Nicholas, for a photo op in front of the Vatisim.

Breaking from tradition, the Camerlengo, Benjamin Carmichael III was among the Cardinal bishops greeting the queen.

The Vatisim has a dress code - those visiting cannot wear low-cut or sleeveless dresses, miniskirts, shorts and hats. Black lace is customary when visiting the Pope and Queen Katherine stayed with tradition rewearing the classic “Till Death Do Us Part” dress.

On their website it states: 'The Vatisim is an independent state in which the Catholisim Church is based and imposes its dress rules throughout the city.

'The clothing required is modest and requires for respect of the sacredness of the institutions the coverage of certain areas of the body.'

Before a private audience, the queen gave the pope a hamper of what the Vatisim said was "jams and drinks" produced on lands owned by the royal family. One of the drinks was a bottle of whiskey from Windsor Vineyard.

As a pair, the queen and the pope are leaders to millions of sims around the world.

The pope did not attend His late Majesty's funeral and is not confirmed to attend Her Majesty's coronation in May.

While in San Myshuno, the Queen is also scheduled to meet Henry Myers, 4th Earl of Stafford. Myers is head of one of the five noble families in Windenburg, a fourth-generation homesteader and devoted father. Lord Henry controls the largest contiguous ranch in Windenburg - the Stafford Myers Ranch.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: His Majesty King George I met with Pope Francis XVI during a surprise visit to the Vatisim on Thursday.

Cameron [SNN]: Francis Benedict XVI, the Holy Pope, is Chief Pastor of the worldwide Cathlosim Church and Head of The State of King's City. Pope Francis is a friend and close spiritual advisor to many monarchs like the Sovereign of Windenburg and Oasis Springs, and several Americreek Presidents. 

Cameron [SNN]: “The meeting, also attended by Queen Rowena, focused on the need to promote interfaith dialogue, harmony, and coexistence, as well as safeguarding the Christian presence in the region. Many believe the unannounced visit is an attempt by the palace to repair Queen Rowena’s image.”

Shon Gableton [SNN]: “The College of Cardinals, or more formally the Sacred College of Cardinals, is the body of all cardinals of the Cathlosim Church. As of 29 December 2022, its current membership is 64, of whom 25 are eligible to vote in a conclave to elect a new pope. Cardinals are appointed for life by the Holy Father to serve as his principal assistants and advisers in the central administration of church affairs.”

Shon [SNN]: “The College includes Cardinals Abraham Criste, Walter Tesmond, and Luke Nicholas who were present during the royal visit. Cardinal Tesmond commended Windenburg’s efforts, under His Majesty’s leadership, to safeguard the Christian presence in the region as an integral part of the country’s past, present, and future, and its demographic composition.”

Cameron [SNN]: “King George held a short audience with Pope Francis that also covered the latest international developments and the need for joint action to achieve peace. The ongoing war between North and South Marvania was also discussed.”
