wotc
If you control more than one Protector of the Crown, you choose which redirection effect to apply. You can't divide damage dealt by one source. For example, if an attacking creature would deal 6 damage to you and you control two Protectors of the Crown, you may have that damage dealt to either of the Protectors. You can't have 3 damage dealt to each one.
wotc
The game starts with no monarch. Once an effect makes one player the monarch, the game will have exactly one monarch from that point forward.
