“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

In re: Chromatic (Regal), On the Matter of the State's Fear of the Written Word



🪞REGAL’S TESTAMENT

Where the child becomes the chronicler, and the State looks away.


Filed: 4 August 2025

Reference Code: SWANK-RJ-2025

PDF Filename: 2025-08-04_SWANK_Evidence_RegalJournalBundle.pdf

Summary: A sixteen-year-old boy’s handwritten journal, smuggled out during court-ordered contact, lays bare the emotional attrition, silenced distress, and coercive absurdities imposed under state surveillance.


I. What Happened

During a supervised contact session on 1 August 2025, 16-year-old Regal — the eldest of four American children wrongfully removed under a false Emergency Protection Order — handed his mother a handwritten journal. It is now formally submitted as primary evidence. The entries reveal a pattern of coercion, psychological suppression, coded silence, and escalating despair.
He documents the emotional impact of the placement, the censorship imposed upon him, and the fear of punishment for telling the truth. Each page is a quiet scream, executed in ink.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

Regal’s words offer unfiltered testimony from a detained child whose expressive liberty has been obstructed by state mechanisms under the guise of safeguarding. This bundle constitutes direct evidence of:

  • Emotional trauma under contact restrictions

  • Fear of institutional retaliation

  • Suppression of digital, familial, and educational communication

  • Attempted autonomy via covert documentation

The handwritten account is supported by four police reports now submitted under references TAA-38016, TAA-38017, TAA-38018, and TAA-38034.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when a child is compelled to journal in secret to express harm that no adult will record — that child is not “resistant.”
He is a witness.
And when the child’s truth is offered through trembling graphite and institutional silence follows, it becomes our duty to elevate it with forensic reverence.

SWANK exists to document what institutions discard — and Romeo’s journal is not a cry for help.
It is an evidentiary strike.


IV. Violations

This journal evidences potential breaches of:

  • Article 8 ECHR – Right to family life and private expression

  • UNCRC Article 12 – Child’s right to be heard in all matters affecting them

  • Children Act 1989 – Welfare paramountcy and safeguarding misuse

  • Equality Act 2010 – Disability and nationality-based discrimination


V. SWANK’s Position

Regal is 16 years old, asthmatic, American, and articulate.
His journal is a better safeguarding report than any written by the professionals responsible for his unlawful isolation.

This post serves as a formal archival registration and public declaration of his voice.
Where Westminster muted, Regal wrote.
Where Westminster censored, Regal chronicled.
Where Westminster fabricated, Regal recorded.
This is not a diary. This is deposition.
