The United Federation of Etheinia | The government of Etheinia agrees to the exchange of embassies and appoints Anita Pereyra as chargé d'affaires to the CFU; an official NUC hearing to confirm her as ambassador, as well as the beginning of construction of the new Etheinian embassy in Ferwert, is expected to take place in early August. Furthermore, the government proposes a meeting between Etheinian and Ferwerter leadership figures to discuss the political, economic, and military measures needed for the containment of Exsorcial - with particular concern given to its nuclear weapons and other WMD capabilities. The President is interested in holding these talks as soon as possible, citing Exsorcial as “an extreme, existential threat to world peace”. Diamentium and The Controlist Ferwerter Union | |

The Empire of Westbeech | "It is a staple for most of our planets. As someone on the capital planet of all places, you'd have to have seen tried eogan before, but to each their own." Lero rolled his eyes at his own comment, thinking that it really did make no sense to have not even heard of the fruit. No word of anyone having arrived from an unknown place had been given, which gave him great suspicions. Jonathan, however, would simply have to be disappointed. The fruit was tasteless, not even the memory of how sweet the original was could redeem just how plain the scientist's invention was. He wouldn't feel anything different either, as the chemical modification of the genetics would not have changed significant products present in plants that are required by humans. Perhaps they modifications were made to focus it on a different race, but they were most definitely not beneficial nor a detriment to human health. Lero raised an eyebrow. "So?" | |

The Empire of Makko Oko | OMONN - The Only Makko Oko News Network Issue Of June 24th, 2022 [HEADLINES] Minister Of Defense Radim Kucera Sacked Category: Politics Today the Office Of The Emperor announced that the Minister Of Defense, Radim Kucera, had been terminated from their post effective immediately. This sudden change within the cabinet was unexpected by many, and no terminations within the cabinet were expected within the entire time of the Emperor's regime, given the levels of patriotism within the nation. The reason for the termination wasn't disclosed to OMONN or given within the announcement. Within that same announcement, Minister Kucera's replacement, Jake Wiseman, was immediately named and appointed to their former position. This sudden change in the cabinet comes at the cusp of a global war with Exsorcial, with governments everywhere banding together in unison to fight off any chance of the war coming into place. OMONN got in touch with newly appointed Minister Of Defense Jake Wiseman to ask what they thought of the situation and what they plan to do during their tenure in office, "I think this situation requires strategic thinking, and with that, much planning of what may be done. I'm not at liberty to go into details regarding our military's operation, but I do have plans to spearhead us into safety, prosperity, and strength. During my tenure, I have the intention to boost military spending, boost engagement and enlistment rates and make us all the more patriotic." OMONN tried to get in touch with Radim Kucera but no response was received. The same day as the Office Of The Emperor's announcement, the Ministry Of Defense also announced the sudden change in the ranks, stating that Jake Wiseman was the Lieutenant Colonel in the Makko Okoan Emperor's Liberation Army who had high marks and recommendations from every Second-In-Command in the military cabinet.

Emperor Passes Order Declaring Public Threat Of Exsorcialian Citizens Category: Law & Order Today the Emperor officially passed Order #2, which officially declares under the Public Order Act, Section 1, Article 4, a public threat against and towards any and all Exsorcialian citizens, of any status, of any job or profession. This is the first time the recently created power under the Public Order Act was used, and under the order, declares that all Exsorcialian citizens be terminated upon sight, and any citizens of a foreign nation who visited Exsorcial for any reason, to be detained upon sight. Scholars claim that this order may violate civil rights and wartime treaties and conventions, but the claim was ignored entirely by the government, with some scholars being detained. Actions internationally are also being ramped up with the recent notice of Exsorcialian soldiers being built up at the border of an allied nation. We asked the Emperor what led them to pass this order with Exsorcialians already being barred from entering or leaving the nation, and the Emperor responded, stating that "This order was desperately needed to attempt to get Exsorcialian forces to stand down, and in addition to that, to make sure Exsorcialians do not show up on our soil". The order took effect immediately upon passing and it has no expiry date set.

The Old Land of Darklore | "I believe..." , Jonathan remared while chewing on it for a while longer, trying to see if any actual taste would maybe suddenly pop out like in some sweets when the hidden capsule was breached. But no, the taste remained bland. Less than bland even. He simply gulped down the rest of the sample, not even chewing, before focusing his attention on the vendor again and saying: "I believe you have either chosen the wrong venue to sell your product or you have chosen the wrong product to sell on this venue. If this product does indeed have the qualities you describe then it'd likely be much more profitable to directly sell to larger clients which would be much more amenable to the benefits of your product than the average customer you would find here." He picked up the modified eogan and held it before Lero's eyes, saying: "Now I am certain you mean well and this product does indeed have the benefits you say, but there is a lot more to marketing a product than simply having a good one. Product design is a major factor and to be frank, its appearance is not the most inviting. Perhaps selling it chopped up already in some sort of well designed wrapping could boost sales here but I certainly think you would be more successful selling directly to canteen or food chains which will be less concerned with the look and taste of your raw product and more with its effects on their own customers." | |
The Equestrianic Imperium of Twilight Sparkle | "Thank you, Abbess. I know in my heart that we will win in the end," Bulwark said with a surprising amount of conviction in his voice. He seemed to really look up to the Abbess, who was an Earth Pony like him yet commanded forces far more advanced than anything the Equestrianic Imperium had. "Since the two Equestrian refugees Lady Pearlescent and Shield Wall are no more," Hope said, "We'd like to request that you grant us official citizenship, honorable Abbess." The sun was once again up in the sky when Rainbow Dash regained consciousness and found herself in a sofa in a rather spartan office in New Elysium. One of her guards was lying next to the sofa in a prone position, relaxed but alert and ready to spring into action should the General wake up or come under some external threat. When he saw that she was awake, he immediately jumped to attention. "Welcome back, Genral ma'am!" the soldier said. "Urrghhh, my head..." Rainbow managed to say. She took a few deep breaths and asked, "How long was I out?" "Approximately 12 hours, ma'am. The Elysians said that your reaction to the ritual was unusually... strong, but you should be okay. Still, we were quite worried about you." "The ritual...?" What exactly had happened to her? She had been with Alula and the others in some kind of temple and then... Then... Memories started to leak back into her mind. She remembered submerging herself in the waters, and then a sharp pain had erupted from deep inside her... from her very soul. But Rainbow had always been good at dealing with pain. Pain was just information to act on, and she could deal with it. But at the same time, it had felt like something was unlocked inside her mind. A gate holding back old memories she had not even known existed until then. And the memories... "No..." But there was no denying it. She could see the young Earth Pony stallion again, his pleading eyes filled with fear. She could hear Twilight's words and her own: "Do it, Rainbow." "I... I can't, Twilight. I just can't..." "He's just a Mud Pony criminal. What is his life compared to yours? What is his life compared to the future of Equestria?" "But we're about to consume his very soul! This... this is wrong, Twilight. We've done some pretty bad things to save Equestria, but this is too much... I... I've changed my mind. I won't do it." "You will do it, or I will have to make you. This is bigger than you, RD. This is bigger than the both of us." "No..." "Yes, RD. Do it. Now." Oh sweet Celestia. "I'm a monster," she muttered. "Excuse me, ma'am?" the soldier asked, confused. "It's nothing," she said in a small, weak voice. She felt sick in a way she had never felt before. For a couple of minutes she had to concentrate very hard to prevent herself from falling unconscious again. Her whole world felt like it was about to shatter any moment. "W-where is General Alula Kicker?" "She was just here, ma'am. I'm sure she'll come to check up with us again any moment now." | |
The Not so democratic republic of Marlo | Message from Chancellor Archonovich: We have heard your cries for help and we will come to your aid without question, that is why effective immediately, Marlo will be put into a war based economy and will undergo a general mobilization of the armed forces. I will pledge 50,000 soldiers and the Aircraft carrier M.S Dracul to take part in the defense of Ferwerter. We will not let this rogue state bring death and destruction to our continent and will not hesitate to destroy their genocidal cult of a regime. To the barbarians in Exsorcial, If you think Marlo and the other major powers on Aurelia will just tuck their tails between their legs and let you bully the rest of the nations on the continent, then you have another thing coming. Should you choose hostility, your lands will be painted with fire and the boot prints of a coalition united in the goal of wiping you off the face of the earth. let this be a warning. | |
Khovezzem | Khoghemiizarga, Khovezzem Since the announcement came from the Autocrat that Khovezzem would be opening up to the world plans had been drafted to extend Khovezi entertainment services abroad as well. These were slow-going, of course, due to access restrictions and broadcasting limitations in some countries, but even then bootleg copies could find themselves being distributed--legally or otherwise--by profit-motivated actors. Out of the selection of Khovezi entertainment circling the black market were copies of The Rhogeda Show, a popular live television talk show hosted by the movie actress and jazz musician Kazhermii Rhogeda herself. Rhogeda was famous across Khovezzem for her starring roles in Life Under the Sea, The Dogs of War, and The Life and Crimes of Zaverga Gamhrezii as well as her award-winning debut album Black Rain. Of course if she was known abroad it wasn't for her acting or singing skills - for which she was undeniably talented - but for the controversial (to foreigners, anyway) nature of her talk show, which focused on the world outside of Khovezzem. The Khovezi were a bigoted, xenophobic people who either outright hated or at least distrusted foreigners yet this didn't stop them from being curious about the rest of the world all the same. Many people found foreign cultures fascinating and wanted to know more, even if only so their offensive jokes could be more accurate. Rhogeda, however, had a bad habit of inviting 'experts' of questionable repute; when so few people have left the country, and even fewer returned, it isn't a surprise that there aren't many avenues of collecting information on foreign countries. Viewers, of course, were none the wiser to the truth and even Rhogeda herself wasn't always sure how much her guests were making up or being truthful about. But the show had to go on, and as tonight's episode featured the controversial Spiritual Republic of Caryton as the center topic it would prove to be the most tuned-in episode in the shows three year history. Rhogeda, as always, was seated behind her mahogany desk in front of a screen displaying a flowing Khovezi flag. Dressed in her iconic blue pantsuit with her crimson-dyed hair the singer-songwriter and actress smiled at the cameras. "Welcome back to the Rhogeda Show. I am your hostess, Kazhermii Rhogeda, and for today's topic we'll be discussing the culture and way of life of the Spiritual Republic of Caryton." The in-studio crowd applauded. "Wish us here today we have professor Ziimgor Ozhemkii from the University of Vargheket. How are you professor?" Rhogeda asked, greeting the man sitting across from her with a warm smile. The balding, grey-suited man nodded and returned the smile. "I am doing very well, thank you Miss Rhogeda. It is an honor to be here on your show." he said. "It's an honor to have you here, professor. I understand you have a degree in world history which gives you a unique insight into foreign countries, yes?" "Yes, that is correct." "Wonderful. So can you give us insight into Caryton, professor?" "I can - and with a high degree of accuracy I might add!" The professor adjusted his glasses. "So... Caryton is a fascinating country." "Why is that, professor?" "Because it is incredibly uncivilized to the point of parody. It is as if someone took every possible stereotype for a foreigner and applied to a single country. The nation defies explanation; it is some cruel joke by a jester god, surely." "Truly?" "Oh yes! Caryton is a total enigma. By every metric this country should have collapsed ages ago." "Can you go into more detail, professor?" "Of course, of course. So... Caryton used to be called 'Alta', and as 'Alta' it was quite a prosperous nation: industrialized, urbanized, and educated with a strong military and strong central government. They were much like Khovezzem in many ways, and under different circumstances we may have even been friends!" Rhodega's eyes widened and her mouth was left agape. "They were just like us?!" "Oh yes, as shocking as it is to believe, Caryton was not always the dystopia it is now. It is truly a shame about what it has become, and this is undoubtedly because of the influence of the Cult of Cary." "Can you tell us more about this cult, professor?" "Oh, yes, a great deal actually! So... the Cult of Cary--which calls itself, quite ominously, 'the Church'--is a sect of heretical Christians who hate dogs-" "Wait, they hate dogs?!" "Yes, they hate dogs." "That's horrible!" "Oh yes, absolutely. A dog is Man's best friend after all! But yes, as I was saying: they hate dogs, except for *one*. That one being their prophet, Cary, to whom they have named their country after and to whom they ritually sacrifice all other dogs to." "Ritual sacrifice! How vile!" "Indeed, indeed - it is quite barbaric. But there is more! You see, the dogs are not simply sacrifices - they provide sustenance to the people as well." "Sustenance?!" "Oh yes - they drink the dogs' blood and eat the dogs' flesh. They do this to honor Cary, who they believe is the Second Coming of Jesus Christ." "That's horrifying! You know... I know quite a few Christians personally, and while I know some people distrust Christianity because of it's foreign roots, I must say that Christians are generally good people and that their religion is very beautiful. These... Carytonics... they seem to be making a complete mockery of the Christian faith! If I were a Christian, I would be offended!" "Oh yes, I agree with you completely. Christians in Khovezzem--and elsewhere--should be offended by Caryton's very existence." "So wait... you're saying they *drink* the dogs' blood and eat their flesh?" "Exactly. You see, the Cult of Cary outlawed all forms of food except for oats and beans. This resulted in the biological evolution of the Carytonic people as they were forced to find supplements for this insufficient diet. They began to eat dog meat and drink dog blood, turning them into vampires." Rhodega gasped, as did the crowd. They were shocked by this revelation. "They are vampires?!" "Oh yes! You may see all the bright colors and sunshine and wonder, 'how can they be vampires?', but you see the Carytonics are a masochistic people. They enjoy suffering so much that they dress in hideous clothes, eat bland food, living in abject poverty, and willingly submit themselves to the torture of the Sun's rays. They do this so that Cary does not smite them for living in comfort." "I see what you were saying earlier, about Caryton being uncivilized? I completely agree. It sounds as if it may be the worst country in the world." "Yes, it is hard to dispute the facts. Caryton is a waking nightmare, as our brave sailors and marines have had to discover the hard way. They despise joy, love, music, *and* kindness. All these things are illegal in Caryton and punishable by crucifixion." "Horrible... absolutely horrible. I'm almost afraid to ask more, yet I can't help but be even further fascinated by this country of vampiric dog-haters." "Yes, in a twisted and morbid way it is very fascinating. It's impossible not to learn more." "Indeed, indeed. But for now let's go to commercial. We'll be back for more insights into the depraved lives of Caryton's oppressed people in a moment. But first, here's a message from our sponsors." Makko Oko, Independent eden, The Controlist Ferwerter Union, and Krusilov | |
The Old Land of Darklore | "...and in the coming days the chaff will be removed from the wheat and it is up to every single one of you to decide what you will be. Chaff? or wheat? I am sure you will make the right decision. And for those who do, I promise that much like wheat, you too will become something so much greater, for with you I will bake the greatest bread this country has ever seen! Our society will rise like the dough does in the oven! And all you need-" "Can someone turn that god damned thing off?" , a man shouted leading to someone quickly turning off the radio, the sickening words of the Reichsverweser no longer poisoning the minds of those who listened. The mood in the Loyalist headquarters in Vanheel was poor ever since contact had been lost with the troops of the 1st and 7th Armoured Brigades in Draculea. Though that had quickly become the least of the Loyalists' worries as the Traitor Counteroffensive crushed the 11th Armoured Brigade and the militia forces and appeared to be on a relentless drive through the country, relieving other Traitor cities while taking what remained. Loyalist command was having serious trouble trying to figure out where the Traitors were taking alll this manpower from. Murnow had already fallen back into Traitor hands. Isria and Abronsia had fallen during the relentless counteroffensive. "Any news from Fabulass? Do we know anything about what's happening in the capital?" , the Loyalist Commander, Inspector General Barney Cilwood asked in exasperation as he combed through his greasy hair with his hands, his eyes blankly staring at maps that had seen themselves redrawn so often over the past hours that it had become hard to read them. "No sir, nothing from Commander Freegal. We have however received numerous reports from civilians...they...they seem...unrealistic but they have also provided what can only be considered irrefutable proof." "Video evidence? Show me." The younger officer whipped out his smartphone and after a few button clicks had opened up one of those social media sites. Cilwood had no idea if this was Facial Tome, Twixter, Instantgratification or Bumbler but he didn't exactly care, focusing instead on the video that he was being shown. And what a video it was! It looked surreal, seeing the entire cityscape and skyline so thoroughly demolished, massive canyons and valleys having opened underneath the streets, apparently having taken entire sections of the city with them. He could see houses precariously balanced on ledges and edges, some of them breaking down and crashing into the abyss below. The camera moved to look downwards and what he saw appeared even more unreal. Strange orange lights deep below. But it certainly wasn't lava or anything of the sort. Instead it illuminated strange spires and arches, domes and platforms. Many of them were covered in rubble that had fallen onto them from above but it was immediately clear to Cilwood that he was looking at a structure the likes of which they had never seen before. He to go and rub his eyes for a moment and when he returned the video was already looping again. Whatever, this was...this was beyond what they had thought they were facing. A lunatic with some PMCs. That's what they had expected. This however...this was much worse. Cilwood's heart ached for all the people who must've lost hearth and home, if not life, when this monstrosity started appearing from beneat the earth. It coincided with reports he had gotten about warcrimes, the Traitors supposedly making plentiful examples of civilians and Loyalist fighters. Just how much death had this entire coup already cost? "Change of tactics. Spread the word that we'll be vacating the cities. All militia is to stop wearing uniform or carrying arms. We need to start hiding out there and creating safehouses. I have a feeling, no, I'm certain that whatever this bastard Lee has got on his side is a lot more than we bargained for. They've crushed us in open combat, I think it's time we employ the methods of asymmetric warfare and insurgency against them...God, that I'd have to see the day where I have to sink to the level of insurgents..." | |

Sadripoor | The Ministry of State Affairs, Suradao [SHAIYA RAJIPAKTRI THANPAK] - "In regards to the situation with Exsorcial, we maintain the position we have held since last year: military action and intentional confrontation with Exsorcial is impossible. A country designed to fight war is not one that can be defeated. Both His Majesty and the Prime Minister view the current mobilization on the Ferwerter border to be fairly standard for the Exsorcians, they spoke about this at the Gold Palace yesterday. We have been very clear: Exsorcial is best left to it's own devices. The current position being taken by the Aurelian community is a subscription to their baiting tactics; it's what, we think, Exsorcial wants." [REPORTER] - "So Suraiya isn't considering a military response?" [SHAIYA RAJIPAKTRI THANPAK] - "I'm saying we're not going to overreact, of course public security is first and foremost in our minds. When we feel there is a credible risk, of course we will take action. I'm going to move on now to the topic of the proposed defense budget hearings..." TRANSCRIPT OF MINISTRY OF STATE AFFAIRS UNDERSECRETARY FOR COMMUNICATIONS SHAIYA RAJIPAKTRI THANPAK'S MORNING PRESS BRIEFING, 6/25/22 _______________________ With the wedding month of His Majesty and Prince Nath Khalat Khannem still ongoing for the next week, Suraiyan officials are hesitant to allow external matters overshadow the celebrations, which are as much in honor of Suraiya's national identity as they are a function of the monarchy. As of the 25th, His Majesty and the Prince received gifts from the country’s 72 provinces and 3 Autonomous Regions, their feudal aristocrats and tribal representatives prostrating themselves at the feat of the Kingdom's ruler, and his fiance, in the traditional cultural attire of their homelands. The ceremony lasted two hours and was watched by an estimated 17 million people live. | |
The Empire of Westbeech | "Well thank you for trying it nonetheless. Would you perhaps be interested in the full product, however? Maybe even sharing it with any others who may find this interesting? Things like this don't happen every day and it's hard to find things like this." The man who had been waiting just outside the marketplace had now moved much closer and was keeping his eyes right on Jonathan, but he was fast to move away, as a patrol of droids were making their way towards Jonathan and Lero. As they were approaching, Lero looked behind Jonathan at the approaching droid and then right back at Jonathan. "And would you also like to discuss the price of the eogan I offered you earlier?" | |
The Empire of Makko Oko | Xibert, Makko Oko Military Tribunal June 25th, 2022 COURT MARTIAL OF FORMER MINISTER OF DEFENSE RADIM KUCERA Unexpected and highly secret, once the Minister Of Defense, Radim Kucera was being charged with failure to declare competence to fulfill their duties, upon the order of Emperor Conall Solis, who personally fired him as well. Radim hadn't seen the outside since the last meeting regarding Exsorcial, being in military detention ever since their official termination. Today was the day that Radim found out their fate. The panel of 4 judges walk into the room, looking at Radim sitting down as they take their seats. The Commanding Officer of the tribunal, Jeremiah Sosa, who was approved by the Emperor to be a judge on the case, was the first to speak, stating "Mister Kucera, you have been charged with the crime of 'failure to declare competence to fulfill your duties', do you have anything to say before we begin?" and Radim looks around the room, not noticing lawyers or any of the public here, speaks up with pride, stating that "I was the Minister Of Defense, and I can honestly say that failure to declare competence is not within the MCJC, nor civilian law." All 4 judges look at each other, whisper, and then the Commanding Officer leaves for a moment to make a secured call to the Emperor, who in fact confirms what Radim has stated, but the Emperor states that they have the power to charge people as seen fit, additionally stating that very soon, failure to declare competence will be an official military crime. Jeremiah then hangs up the phone and comes back, clears their throat, and says that "Under the upcoming provisions of the MCJC, it very well is, now let's get to it." The judges grab the stack of documents next to them and start reading off it, line by line, and read in the evidence presented to the court. Radim starts changing from proud to scared of what punishments may come out of this, and that the likelihood of being convicted is high. THE MAKKO OKO MINISTRY OF DEFENSE EVIDENCE FOR COURT MARTIAL PROCEEDINGS OF RADIM KUCERA APPEXDIX A - TESTIMONY Submitted Into Evidence By Emperor Conall Solis, Certified By The Court On June 23rd, 2022, Radim Kucera, I, the Minister Of Internal Security, the Director Of National Intelligence and the Minister Of Diplomatic Affairs had a meeting in my office. The meeting dealt with the matters of Exsorcial and an invitation to join the Global United Defense Pact. About half-way in the conversation, Radim and the Minister Of Internal Security had a squabble, with Radim seemingly not worried about air or sea defenses, which the Minister Of Internal Security pointed out. Radim appeared to be dazed by the idea of a foreign government attacking our soil due to the fact that we're an island nation, and all of us noticed this, but the only one to say anything was the Minister Of Internal Security, which thereafter Radim silently apologized. APPENDIX B - CCTV FOOTAGE OF EMPEROR'S OFFICE THE DAY OF JUNE 23RD, 2022 Submitted Into Evidence By Emperor Conall Solis, Certified By The Court The more that was read, the worse it looked for Radim, the more grim it looked. By the time the judges were starting to show the CCTV footage of the event, Radim looked heavily defeated, depressed, and almost like they were about to break down. This, was the process of breaking down a military soldier into emotional instability. This was noted and recorded into evidence against Radim, with him seemingly not noticing. Radim was given one more chance to defend himself after all of the evidence was shown, but he had nothing to say, except for apologies, the defense against what was spoken was dead. He thought about trying to say the evidence wasn't credible, but given the CCTV footage of the Emperor's own office, it was likely somebody very high up in the government who had sought this expedition, maybe even the Emperor themselves, he thought. The judges then all go into a private room, leaving Radim with the military guards, with which Radim just put his head down on the table until they got back, trying to sob as silently as possible. After about 10 minutes, including discussions with the Emperor, they come back and Radim immediately perks their head up to look at them. They sit down, and the Commanding Officer announces the ruling, "Mister Kucera, you've been found guilty of the crime of 'failure to declare competence to fulfill your duties'. You are to be generally discharged from the Makko Okoan military, and under Article 28 of the Military Criminal & Justice Code, you will not have the right to benefits, additionally, you are to be transferred into the Ministry Of Justice's jurisdiction to recuperate your mental state at Ayrexsey Psychiatric Correctional Complex." "This tribunal is adjourned." and everybody leaves, and Kucera starts sobbing immensely, loudly, as he's taken away by military guards. | |

Khovezzem | KHOVEZZEM CONDEMNS EXSORCIAL; VOWS TO "WIPE [IT] OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH" IF IT STARTS WAR IN AURELIA The Autocratic State has officially condemned the unwarranted belligerence of the Infinitist Superstate of Exsorcial after it's threat of force against The Controlist Ferwerter Union. In a rare internationally-broadcasted joint speech by the Secretaries of Amity and Peace, Mr. Khuvem Zarvamii and Mr. Khoriim Loham respectively, the intent to combat and contain Exsorcialian aggression was expressed as being the Will of the Autocrat Herself. "The Autocratic State", they said, "is dedicated to peace in Aurelia and throughout all the world and no acts of aggression by the barbarous nation of Exsorcial will be tolerated." The Secretary of Amity clarified that Khovezzem's Third and Sixth Fleets, which were already deployed to the Aurelian region to combat piracy from Zamboodle and defend the Spiritual Republic of Caryton from Ferwerter aggression, would intervene to defend any nation under threat of war by the Infinitist Superstate. The Secretary of Peace further warned Exsorcial that Khovezzem would "bring to bear her full might" against it if it starts a war. Mr. Loham went into further detail, threatening the so-called Infinite Father that if Exsorcial started a war in Aurelia then Khovezzem would "boil your seas, salt your farms, raze your cities, glass your deserts, and burn your forests until every last inch of your land was so devastated and inhospitable that the Khovezi Wastelands would seem like a verdant paradise by comparison" and that Khovezzem would "launch a campaign so grand so as to erase Exsorcial from this very existence and all of history". Mr. Loham finished by promising that "for every drop of blood that Exsorcial would spill, Khovezzem would take a hundred heads from their people's very shoulders until it could build a new tower for the Autocrat out of their skulls". The Autocrat was unavailable for comment. Makko Oko, Etheinia, The Controlist Ferwerter Union, and Krusilov | |
The Old Land of Darklore | Ah yes, here came the issue one could see from a mile away. And it was easy to figure out why he had chosen this particular moment to make his move, as the steadily louder clanking of mechanical limbs heralded the approach of one of the robot patrols. If the vendor felt the wrong way, he could now easily find himself with back-up. He pursed his lips in disappointment at Lero but in the interest of his own health, decided to play nice, at least for the moment. "I might've considered it. I was aware of some clients who could've used such a product for their canteens..." , he began but his less than inviting facial expression didn't allow for any hope to flicker up. "...but given this sort of behaviour, I would have to tell them to consider this very carefully. On my planet, the vendor would have to make a full offer before he can claim the payment, something you neglected to do. However, I am in a magnanimous mood today, thanks to the eogan you provided. I am willing to barter for it. Name your price." | |
New welmarica | In the name of order and amnesty, the federation of New Welmarica is willing and able to not only contribute military assistance in containment efforts, but to host talks of peace and stability. In this uneasy time it is important to reach compromise. New Welmarica is also open to the discussion of trade deals and further alliances. Etheinia and Krusilov | |

The church of positivity | All-knowing Teacher While not televised, the Church of Positivity would- in a mysterious statement- would send their gifts to the Kingdom's ruler and ruler-elect. Wrapped in delicate yellow bows would be a simple basket. Two honeydew melons- Ariano's favorite fruit and an integral part of what is rumored to be a starvation-diet believers go during monastic training. A vial of rain water labeled from Citrus Park, Caryton, a pound of ash with a single stick of incense erected in it, and a signed portrait of the yellow-clad bearded jesus-buddha guru smiling triumphantly behind a halo of yellow sun. Forensic analysis could determine the ash would have been the residue of very fine silks, burned symbolically to demonstrate the fallacy of hedonism and how easily it can be destroyed. The incense, a traditional spiritual offering to the dead. The rain water from the cult's headquarters- a sign of purity, to wash. Beneath Ariano's signature, two phrases would be signed in English: "I believe in love, too." A quote from the ending of the first hearing: "Nothing will sever me from the Suraiyan people until the afflicted are tended to." The gift was clearly a gift of protest. | |
The Ecclesiastical Meritocracy of Spiritual Republic of Caryton | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jigSPNu4utE An upgraded network of speakers would resonate yet another hymn across the border into Ferwerter Hegebeintum's territory. The choice of song would be simple and blunt- to continue the feeling of joy in old-time gospel fashion. Caryton seems to be paying more attention to its borders, with more tree-lined streets being erected every week as adolescent golden delicious apple trees are transferred, to begin raising orchards. - The government of the Spiritual Republic of Caryton was becoming restless. A talk show featuring blatant lies echoed from the hopeless land of Khovezzem had found its way to Georgine. The slander left many officials reeling and angered, but no official statement would be made with that bitterness. Instead, a public four-hour broadcast would be made with Caryton's own experts, proving the claims false with video evidence and academic discourse. - In response to a televised procession of the wedding in Sadripoor, Caryton would respond with only a brief communique condemning homosexuality.

Exsorcial | Ministry of Agitation, Syoneson The Infinitist Superstate wishes death and destruction on each and every nation that has crossed it thusfar. The vile filth, the scat-kind of humanity's most pitiful governments, hypocritical and defiant- the great StaSH*Tmao... the enemy unseen, the ubiquitous scum that must be made an example of, oh government of The Controlist Ferwerter Union. Any incursion into our territory will be met with the forced armed resistance of every single civilian in the state, who will be determined to mutilate and kill the great enemy of our time. Containment will never be viable. Your governments are all shams. Our true nature is murder, this is fact. Every bullet, bomb, and every pike and bayonet will be devoted to exterminating the filth of the world, and when these run out, the masses of population will resort to bare hands and crude tools to tear, rip, and dislocate until nothing is left of the enemy. We will lob concourses of nuclear weapons into Khovezzem and once again reduce their entire landmass into a land of radioactive, writhing mutants of flesh rotting to the cockroaches and buzzards. We will sink their fleet and the homosexual sea-donkeys that populate them, should they desire to continue their current course. There is no end to the hydrogen bombs that we will deploy until the land of great scoundrelry is no more. The life cycle of nations has run its course. If you have any desire of peace, then this conspiracy will end. If not, the youths will be the next group of parasites paraded to the border of the Ferwerter Union for their epoch of ideology.
