A man identified as a high-ranking member of a foreign guild was fined following a discovery at a royal estate.

An unusual legal proceeding concluded this week following a discovery on the grounds of a royal estate earlier this summer. According to reports reviewed by WKNA 49, a gardener discovered the zombified remains of the late Queen Elizabeth II roaming the property on July 26.

Authorities quickly identified a suspect at the scene. Xurthnaquath the Boner, described as a high-ranking individual in the Necromancers' Guild of Ireland, was located by security officials on the grounds.

Witnesses indicated the individual was performing a vocal routine at the time of the discovery. Accounts provided to the court suggest the man was singing a modified version of a celebratory song, which included self-referential lyrics concerning the British monarchy.

Following a brief investigation, a court officially ruled Xurthnaquath guilty of the reanimation. The defendant was ordered to pay a fine of £4.50. While the figure appears small, financial analysts noted the exchange rate and unique legal circumstances surrounding the unprecedented case.

The Necromancers' Guild of Ireland has not yet released an official statement concerning the event or the status of the member involved. The current condition of the former monarch's remains following the court ruling was not immediately clear.
