The prosecutor shakes his head. "You were the one giving the orders! I dont believe that Mr. Vala would have killed you." The judge then bangs his gavel. "I have heard and seen enough! Amon Reinhard Visari I find you guilty and sentence you to life in prison! You may sit down now." The prosecutor is pleased with this and turns to Cha Jung-Hee. Mr. Jung-Hee please stand up and say how you plead."
She is silent,processing all of this. She is angry at what all is happening but does not let is show on her face. "Of course, the council does not like the decisions that I have made so they are putting me on trial! I did everything for the good of the country!"
Birgit shakes her head. "Damn it! And of course we dont know where the queens are, they could be in Jargoth! But I dont think that woman would kidnap them and then strike them with nuclear weapons." She turns to the person that said this. "Do we know who or where these missiles are coming from?"

Cha was a sickly man by this point, he weakly steps up. "Guilty..."
The prosecutor takes a pause at this as he is surprised at this answer. "You plead guilty? What is your reasoning? Are you admitting to what you are accused of?"

He pauses. “Yes. Sometimes indirectly, my infrastructure projects were used in that fashion, but sometimes I was aware of what I was doing.”
The man returns with a bunch of documents, maps, blueprints and most importantly the missing pages of the Joshuastanian manuscript. This makes her eyes widen almost immediately and she spills her tea all over the floor. "What is all of this? Where did you get the missing pages and why is there a blueprint of a damn nuke!?" The man sighs and then points at the blueprints which are written in German. "Everything came from the rogue order's main operative inside Germany, and it suggests a nuclear attack on Jargoth is about to be conducted by people looking to frame your nation and start a war!" Queen Hrafna immediately goes white and then throws up. "No! Why would they do that!?" The man sighs and then gets a wet towel to help clean her up. "I know that hearing this news is overwhelming and difficult to process but that's the unfortunate reality of the current situation..."
"I can see how your projects would have been indirectly used for the bad things especially if you were forced to do it by the others. If you were aware of what you were doing then you may have some information that will help us in this trial."

Joshuastania
The person who said it shakes his head. "We don't believe this attack will be conducted with a missile strike because someone reported that a blueprint for a small yield tactical nuclear device was stolen from a secure military installation near Talford."
The young man shakes his head and he's about to say something when his phone rings and he picks it up. "Yes?" He listens to the person on the phone for a little while and then gets angry. "Why in the hell did you people not eliminate the commander when he changed sides and you had multiple opportunities to do so!?" He again listens to the person on the phone and shakes his head in anger. "F*ck this! I'm not going to die because of your incompetence!" He immediately starts to panic and then quickly gathers his belongings.
Birgit shakes her head. "How could the blueprints be stolen from a secure site? Oh, I bet that the rogue order and/or the Joshuastanians have people on the inside that got those blueprints for them. Either way, an attack on Talford is not good and they may be planning to use this to frame one or both of the Queens! "
Karolëna listens to his conversation and tries to get clues about what is happening. It seems like a commander changed sides and was helping either Jarosz or Queen Hrafna, which is good. By the young mans panicking she assumes that it does not look good for whoever is holding her prisoner for that to happen. "What is going on?"
Xemtianjia
"The orders came from comrade Visari, and comrade Jiro benefitted massivly from my labour projects, he was able to get new victims much faster."
Joshuastania
He once again shakes his head. "No, we believe that whatever they are planning may involve sneaking the device into Jargoth and setting it off somewhere!"
The young man glares at her and walks over to her with a pistol in his hands but the door suddenly flies open, and he's shot by the commander. "Get out of bed quickly because there's not much time left!"
Birgit sighs. "That is not good and they will use that against my sister and say that she caused it somehow. We need to find out where the Queens are and fast!"
Karolëna is surprised by this but gets out of bed. "What the h*ll is going on?!"
Meanwhile, Jarosz is still on the move and is getting closer and closer to the cabin where Hrafna is. He thinks he sees a soldier in the near distance so he stops and gets out of sight. After a little bit he realizes that the soldier is not moving so he cautiously moves forward. As he gets closer he realizes that there are a number of dead Joshuastanian special forces there and that he must be real close to the cabin now. There must have been a firefight here between the Joshuastanians and Queen Hrafna's men. He continues walking and a little while later he sees the cabin. He approaches it slowly and carefully in case he is being watched.
Joshuastania
The defense minister nods in agreement, but he hesitates a little. "I do agree that we should keep looking for the missing queens, but our number one priority should be to keep our citizens safe."
The commander takes the pistol out of the dead guard's hands and gives it to her. "There's a nuclear bomb hidden somewhere in the capital, so I needed to get you out of here ASAP!" He then sighs deeply and sadly. "I'm terribly sorry for my part in the attack against the chapel, but my orders were clear..."
Jarosz can see a few rogue order members patrolling around the outside of the cabin and he can see Queen Hrafna sitting on a couch speaking with someone.
Birgit pauses and nods. "The safety of our citizens should always be a priority. As I am Queen while my sister is away I should be keeping the citizens of Covvia safe but what should I do? I cant exactly tell them that a bomb is going to explode in Jargoth. That will cause more panic and confusion as I am sure that they might already know about what is happening." She sighs and rubs her head. "Plus they may not exactly be the fondest of me being acting Queen."
She takes the pistol from him. She is beginning to piece things together and realizes that he is the one that the young man was talking about on the phone. "If there is a nuclear bomb in the capital then you are right, we do need to go! But what about Queen Hrafna and Jarosz? They will be killed if the bomb goes off as well!" She then sighs. "You should be sorry for that but I am glad you got smart and changed sides and are helping me now. This better not be some sort of trap and you must be the one that he was talking on the phone about." She points to the dead young man. "But never mind that, we need to go!"
He does see this and stops short of the chapel to plan out his next move. He is happy to see that Queen Hrafna is alive but does not recognize the man she is talking to. While watching he sees Hrafna throw up and is concerned. He decides that he needs to get in there right away and see what is happening because she may have been poisoned. He silently makes his way up to the cabin, hoping that he will pick the right moment when the guards have their backs turned. Not having a weapon will make things difficult if he needs to fight but he will fight with his body in order to get to Hrafna.
Oh man, I’ve been busy. Sure, we could meet if you want. If I’m still on the map and you’re still in the region that is
Sorry I’ve been so inactive everyone-life got really busy for me lately.
Xemtianjia
He nods. “Yes.”
Joshuastania
The minister of defense apologies and then picks up the phone where he calls for an emergency mobilization order and to allocate a bit more resources to protect the citizens of both nations which includes the deployment of CBRN units to the capital.
The commander gives her a reassuring look. "Hrafna and Jarosz are most likely back together at the secure location where a group of rogue order traitors have been hiding out." He then leads her down the hallway and into the elevator.
Jarosz would see a lightly guarded back door which he could easily access once the rogue order member standing in front of it moves.
Birgit rubs her head and then turns to Isabella as the minister is making the phone calls. "D*mn, this just keeps getting worse and worse."
Karolina smiles back. "Well that is good to hear. I am glad that there are people like you and the other traitors that will do the right thing." She follows him down the hall and to the elevator. "Even with you and the others help, we are still up against a lot of problems and a big enemy. I only hope that my sister and Isabella can figure out a way to help."
He does see this and once the guard moves he quickly goes to it and opens it. He moves quietly once inside the cabin in case there are other guards. He begins making his way through the cabin and soon he is outside the room where Hrafna is.
"Well thank you for your cooperation and for your cooperation you will get a light sentence." He then turns to the judge. "I recommend that Mr. Jung-Hee get 2 years of house arrest for his cooperation and because of his health." The judge nods and agrees with this. "That is what I will sentence him to." The prosecutor then turns back to the others and is deciding which one to question next. "Mr. Jiro stand up and state how you plead to the charges against you."

He stands up and walks to the stand. "I plead not guilty, as a soldier fighting for my country from the Mongol menace, I had to do certain things."
