The War of Illumine[Zero Beta Only]

by **Illuminination** » Sat Nov 01, 2014 7:10 pm

After the invasion of Experimentstan and the consequent Battle of the Border, all member states of Illumine and JISACC have agreed to enter the Colonial Alliance. Murratri even lost its single territory, Nilluut, to the alliance. Illuminination is a day away from being able to engage, Nilluut is 3 days away, Babuyt has no army and can't engage, and the Experimentstan militia is losing men a a 5/2 ratio. Murratri is continuing its advance on South Town. All the previous protests have been dissolved. Purgatory is incapable of completion because the Illumininatian software on board has been forced to seize all production droids activities. The murratri army is still bigger than the combined forces of all of Illumine and is believed to be likely to take South Town before any major advances can be made against them. Illumination's defense forces are on High Alert and have are moving the small distance to Illumine City in order to strengthen the border. Murratri has yet to make any advances on Illuminination, though it may be preparing for it. Illuminination is planning on establishing air superiority, as it has the best air force in the region, and then follow that by naval superiority, though they are not the best in this sector. All shipment to and from murratri are being turned back or blown up, and Murrtari is seizing all food shipments to Illuminination. All nations are being encouraged to help in any way possible.

The Prime Minister was already pacing back and forth in her office. First Illumine completes its space station, then the Zyphians mobilize their forces, and now Murratri has invaded its own neighbor in a attempt for expansion? Why does this happen during my term as Prime Minister? She sat back in her chair to contemplate on what to do. She then pulled out her data pad and sent a communique to the Chief Executive of Murratri, who was dismissed as a minor threat to Parliament a week ago. She felt that this would be necessary to prevent further deaths.

SUBJ: Ultimatum to Murratri
ENCRYPTION: 50%

Greetings, Chief Executive.

This conflict against your enemies must end. Cease and desist from invading your neighbors, and demobilize your forces, or face immediate military action. We will be sending diplomats to Murratri to settle on a ceasefire and a peace agreement. We hope that you will consider a way to solve this conflict through peaceful means. You have 72 hours to formulate a response.

John Koch was a man of business. And his business was governing. He was good at it, he was called "The Greatest CEO our Government has ever had". He was also ruthless and always wanted more. Maybe that is why to two previous regimes that were fighting's leaders mysteriously died in car bombings. John's plan at the moment was to unite Illumine and ride it straight to the bank. All he needed was to take the other countries. Now he was having a serious issue, outsiders were getting involved. He knew that is he ever wanted to have a shred of respect he needed to hold his ground, or rather, advance on Experimentstan. He knew the war was going to be against his favor if more countries joined the Colonials. He needed a way to stop them.

As he received Prime Minister Fairs message on his MobiGlas, he began to wonder if he could really win. He reasoned that the could, he was delusional, and likely high. He read the message and became enraged. He was getting very angry and needed to take it out. He called his bus boy to his office and began beating the 16 year old boy. He was high and angry. After the boy had many of his bones broken and both of his eyes blackened John decided to reply to the message from Fairs.

Official Document of the Current Crisis in Experimentstan

Hey you Bitch,
We are not invading Experimentstan. We have only been fighting them because radicals in their nation attacked our soldiers who were just trying to assist in riot control. We do not want to fight a war against anyone but Experimentstan has attacked our troops. This cannot be tolerated. We have been forced to retaliate. Because of this I kindly ask you to not attack us as it could turn into a World War and could lead to an end of our species. And who would want that.
-Best Wishes, John Koch

As John hits send he knows that he will regret it. But he just goes to bed to get sober.

1 November 2014
2:47 PM, Western Tervalia Standard Time

Cassandra was furious. Had the Chief Executive thought this through? More importantly, what he stated in his reply was contrary to what the Stormwrathian Embassies in Illumination, Murratri and Experimentstan as well as the Intelligence Agency of Stormwrath have reported. Experimentstan's border with Murratri has been breached by invading troops, and Illuminination has decided to intervene, even sending troops to assist Experimentstan. She wondered how long could the opposition to Murratri hold out for; after all, Murratri was the breadbasket of the JISACC. She decided to hold an emergency meeting among the members of Emperor Percival's cabinet later that day.

7:27 PM, Western Tervalia Standard Time

"...So it is decided then", finished the Prime Minister in the conclusion of their meeting. In the past three hours, Fairs' cabinet has agreed to ask the Zyphian government for the lease of four bases in their territory. "Well then, thank you once more for coming, the meeting is dismissed."

As she walked out of the meeting room, Nigel Dawson, the Minister of Defense, came and questioned her, "How will we know if the Zyphians will allow us to use their military bases? After all, the last time we have used those bases was in 1984, thirty years ago."

She held his shoulder and assured him, "Do not fret. I am sure they will consider this, especially since they mobilized their forces days ago. Besides, this is not so that we should intervene in this war, but for the promotion of peace."

"I don't like the sound of that, Prime Minister", said Dawson with a concerned tone.

"I know, that is what peace sounds like", replied Fairs. "It often seems to be cloaked by the sound of war."

Captain Madison Doyle of the Illuminination Royal Air Navy was a lady of mettle. She was a career soldier who signed up for the Royal Air Navy at the ripe age of 24. She had done it after getting her degree in military tactics from the prison she had lived in for the last 4 years, she had been charged for grand theft auto, piracy, and the burglary of a bank. All of her crimes would typically of made you ineligible for service in the Air Navy but she was acquitted of her crime by Governor Stevenson of Sentrum on the account that she was to young for her crime to ruin her future. Doyle was now a captain at the mere age of 30, the youngest ever in Illuminination. She lead her own squadron of fighters, Anvil F7c Hornets that were tasked with strategic target elimination, they had to attack well armed and defended targets. Her squadron has been tasked with taking out murratri navy carriers before they get close enough to threaten Illuminination. Her team has been stationed aboard the RNS Duke of Wellington, a RSI Idris Frigate. The Duke, as they call it, was one of the few ships that was under the control of the Royal Intense Strategic Warfare Corporation, a private contractor that handles all of Illuminination's elite operations. She had never thought that she would get anywhere near this far in life, after all, she grew up on nothing more than the guaranteed minimum income, now she makes ₢ 178,000 a year and ₢ 40,000 commission per month on tour.

Her first mission as part of the war was to attack the MWNS Auksas, a murratrian water borne battle ship, with a armada of bombers that will carry anti matter bombs. As she walks on deck to get to her ship, the Black Panther, she smells the air around her, she loved the smell that radiated off of the deck, burnt rubber and sweat.

As her squad spots the Auksas she notifies the bombers that they are in range and must prepare their deadly cargo. When the group gets within 300 meters the Auksas begins firing. A few fighters then launch from the ship. Her men are able to take out the first one, and damage the fourth before it can get off deck by using their new BOOM Boom missiles. The other two fighters do present a threat to Doyle's squad of 4 though. As she orders the squad into a v formation--they were previously unorganized as it made it harder for flak to hit them-- to hit the fighters before they take out the bombers. As she finishes her command, both enemies fire two missiles each at the same member of her squad. He is blown up, as he could not escape the cross paths of the missiles. That is when she orders her whole squad to fire continuously. One enemies is hit right as her squad gets close enough to the Auksas to have flak be a real danger. Her far left wingman, being to focused on avenging his lost comrade, is hit by flak. Goyle tells her squad to fire missiles at the last of the combatants. Finally they are the only ones left.

The Battle of Auksas was the first recorded combat ever to be between murratri and Illuminination. After the battle the first invasion fleet hits Experimentstan with the plan of intercepting the murratrian forces before they reach South Town. Illuminination continues to reach out to the international community and murratri is believed to be forging alliances with a few other nations to prevent Stormwrath and Zyphius from entering the war.

President Russell Abrams was a leader that led a country that looked democratic on the outside. He has been Rykzia's autocrat for 18 years now, and Murratri was one of those nations that seemed favorable in his eyes. Now that there is a war, Chief Executive John Koch reached out to him for military and economic aid. He then responded in his data pad:

Greetings, Chief Executive.

I thank you for sending me this letter. In behalf of Rykzia, we will support you economically and militarily but will not enter the war without the approval of the Rykzian High Council. I have ordered our ships to arrive at Nuutgetde as soon as possible with the ammunition, equipment and supplies you'll need.

Signed,
//RUSSELL ABRAMS//

OFFICIAL COMMUNIQUE OF ZYPHIUS

To: Prime Minister Cassandra Fairs of Stormwrath
Fr: Supreme Potentate Kelstath Anubiros of Zyphius
Encryption: 100%

Greetings, Prime Minister Fairs.

I thank you for taking the time to write this message. We will be happy to lend you four of our bases in exchange for your new military technologies and scientific equipment. In the meantime, we are willing to test out our joint project, PAA (Phantom Atom Armor) in your scientists soon and correct any flaws from the test. Once again, thank you.

Signed,

The Zyphians have agreed with Stormwrath to lend their bases for a while, until peace and order can be restored for the peoples of Illumine. Transport ships departing Stormwrath for Zyphius were escorted by naval warships, and convoys of them arrived at Skyrift Naval Base and at one other location. As they are being unloaded, Transport aerial vehicles also landed at their air bases, and brought in more equipment.

Stormwrathian scientists arrived in Zyphius' research centers to finish their collaboration with the Zyphians on the Phantom Atom Armor project. So far, it has been a success during testing, except a few slight malfunctions on tests on Aegis Ultima battlesuits.

The third vag(wave) of the murratrian offensive through the mountains is in full swing. General Ignus of the Third Murratri Army is the commander of the operation. The temperature is -20 c. The weather was expected to be warmer and because of that, Dandiol didn't order an appropriate amount of warm clothes from the National Military Supply Authority. The Experimentstani forces had an appropriate amount of clothing, as most members Having finally being sent Dagger 17's from Illuminination, Chief Charlotte Decker was picking off the murratri attackers like fish in a barrel, or rather, genocidal, evil people. She was a sniper among the New People's Advanced Battalion, a group that was commissioned by Minister Blocke at the news of the invasion. N-PAB consisted mainly of imported mercenaries and patriotic citizens who were the best Experimentstan could muster in short notice. Chief Decker was a patriot who had joined since she wanted to keep her ability to work only 32 hours a week once all this mess was finished. Chief was also, apparently, a crack shot, despite never having shot a gun in her life--due to them being illegal. She has scored 36 kills in the few days that the war has lasted, so far. Decker is scheduled to be the first soldier to receive a governmental Medal of Honor, in the last 87 years--when Experimentstan decommissioned its military--. She is one of the many N-PAB sniper squadrons ordered with defending the Mountains along the east coast, and to therefore keep murratri from getting close to South Town.

As Decker got her target lined up she said to her partner (and lover), Sara Darlin, "This[the war] isn't going to end soon, huh?" Her partner looks at her, kisses her with her frosted lips, and replies, "They will keep coming, until we stop them." These words having resonated in Decker, made her pull the trigger and begin the Engagement of Mountain Night. As she and the other team in the squad finish the rest of the scouting team, she calls in Air Command to scout over the area, supply close intelligence, and fire strategic missiles. When Air Command reports back she finds out that this is going to be long and painful. There are at least a 1,000 more soldiers and 2 squads of Killer Robots.
Air command took out about 800 soldiers, but was unable to eliminate more than 4 Killer Robots. As the enemy forces approached the Sniper groups, Air command was forced to quit firing and let the snipers handle it.

After 32 hours of fighting, Decker is killed, her partner goes on to survive with only a wound in the shoulder. The murratri Third Army is stopped and Illuminination Support arrives in the form of a Idris Corvette. The squads were pulled back and replaced with fresh ones that were sent to chase down the Third Army and gather information from General Ignus. Illuminination has pushed an additional 100 kilometers into murratri and has seized many major Farms. Murratri has a large pocket of troops in the area of central and northern Experimentstan. The Engagement of Mountain Night was the first successful defense against the murratri forces and is believed to be a huge turning point of the war. Illuminination is attempting to squeeze the murratri forces from the east and west out of Experiemntstan and to seize major economic places in hopes of crippling the capitalistic country.

by **Rykzia** » Thu Nov 06, 2014 9:32 pm

Rykzia's ships were sailing in convoys towards Murratri, with ammunition, equipment and supplies. Scores of convoys escorted by naval frigates and corvettes kept coming to Nuutgetde, unloading at the port and sustaining the Murratrian war effort. There were a few skirmishes with the Illuminination and Zyphian navies, but the convoys were kept secure, albeit only a few losses.

With the Invictus advancing into Murratrian homeland soil, Abrams got approval from the High Council to declare war on Illuminination. Three aircraft carriers, along with seven aerial fortresses were being placed off the coast of Illumine to send a message to them to back off.

Empress Zakura was already stressed. She sat on her chair and stood up again, pacing each time. She mumbled to herself in Ashiro, "Humans, humans, why must every devastating war that has to start be created by humans? Why has Soku possessed them once more?" She sat back down and continued her monologue. "All they do to solve their problems is through violence; that is humanity." She pressed a button on her desk and said, "Order the White Lotus to meet here at midnight. We have some matters to discuss."

And so the White Lotus members came by midnight to the Silver Palace. Sitting in their designated places, they stood in unison as the Empress entered the hall. "Ladies and gentlemen, the 172nd Princess of Empire City, the 130th Imperial Monarch of Chirutarisu, sovereign of her realms, and guardian of the destiny of the anthran race, Empress Zakura Shinagami Katchmar." She went to the podium and the assembly sat down.

Zakura began, "Thank you for coming, brothers and sisters of the White Lotus. I wouldn't have asked you to arrive here if this matter wasn't so serious. As you may have heard on the news, the continent of Hakurei..." she paused for a moment to sigh, "...is at war." The other White Lotus members began talking among themselves.

She began to speak in an urgent tone. "Yes, humanity is at war once again. Must we stand by and let them destroy our existence in the process? No! Do you have any suggestions on what to do with this course of action?"

A man from the back of the hall stood up and said, "I propose that Chirutarisu must impose crippling economic sanctions on the JISACC, Rykzia and Zyphius. They are on their own."

Another man stood and countered, "What about Stormwrath? They're sending scientists and military engineers to Zyphius, as well as military personnel to the island to send a message to Murratri." Cries began coming from all around the room to condemn the Stormwrathians.

Zakura disagreed. "We shall figure out how to deal with them for another time. Right now, we take a course of action that such a war will never continue. All those who vote to condemn the JISACC, Rykzia and Zyphius, raise your right hand." And most of them did.

"Well then, it is decided. Chirutarisu shall impose economic sanctions on these entities, for we have deliberated a few moments ago that this move will bring peace and order back to Zero. Thank you very much, the meeting is dismissed."

Official Statement Regarding the War of Our Faire Region
I have never had to deal with a situation like this one before. People are killing others and I cannot condone this. This War is a waste of resources that will do nothing more than hurt us as a group. I must insist to my colleagues in Murratri, Illuminination, and Experimentstan, end the war now!. I must request to all nations our area assist the Illuminination government, however as we have a reliance on all the nations currently at war, we cannot enter a war with any of them for as long as they continue trade with us. We have an interest in the success of all nations in the region.
-Jacques Custre, Chief Executive

King William has made an official statement, in it he said, "Mr Koch, Minister Blocke, and Minister Tristan, end this war now." This statement is now being used in the war protests in Illumine City.

Illuminination and Experimentstan are still attempting to squeeze murratri out of Experimentstan. Illuminination has stated that it is considering an invasion and annexation of murratri, and in an official statement from Minister Tristan, "We are thinking of doing this [annexing them] as a way to stop any possibility of invasion." John Koch has not left his study for the last several days, it is believed that this is so he can spend all of his time focusing on the invasion. Minister Locke is saying that as soon as the Murratri threat is eliminated, they will exit the war and not support an invasion of murratri if Parliament determines that murratri is no longer a threat.

Greetings, Chief Executive.

So far you have refused to concede with our ultimatum that your forces should back off from Experimentstan. Very well, your actions shall have these consequences. Our Parliament has approved to place economic sanctions against your country. Shipments from our nation will not arrive at Murratri until you consent to remove your forces from Experimentstan.

Prime Minister of Stormwrath

by **Murratri** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 8:24 pm

John Koch walks out onto the podium. He smiles and waves to the quiet group of reporters in front of him. He then begins,
"We will not give up. That would be a violation of our honor. We will endure any and all hell, and we will come out on top. We will continue to push, to avenge our lost honor and to gain some. We are yet to be defeated, we are to be victorious. I have been talking to my Chief General's and they are all in agreement, no matter what, we will win." This was not true though, they have been losing, they lost the east and are unable top gain in the west. He continues, " All these fruitless economic sanctions are fruitless attempts to cripple our economy. What the committees and parliaments of Zero always forget is we are the economic supplier of our region. We control the regions economy, we are gods over Illumine's economy. We are self reliant or, atleast, can just take from our neighbors what we don't have. The only way to end our conflict now is to destroy us, and before you could do that, we would destroy you." John Koch immediately exits the podium without a word. No one makes a sound for several seconds after the CEO leaves.

by **Rykzia** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 9:12 pm

Orders have been received by the 6th Rykzian Navy to begin air raids over Illuminination's skies to cripple their military-industrial complex. Aircraft carriers, both naval and aerial carrier vessels, began launching from the Illumine Sea to reach Illuminian soil. Aerial fortresses also moved closer to Illuminination and Experimentstan to establish air domination over the landmass.

"This shall not stand", says President Abrams in a press conference in Avencea, the capital of Rykzia. "Murratri is only trying to quell the uprisings in Experimentstan, and this is how the international community responds? We will support the Murratrian government, even if it means military action."

Submarines have also been deployed in the Illumine Sea, preying on enemy ships. Bionic fish are some of Rykzia's most potent weapons for harassment; they swim, usually alone, and stick to the hull of the ship and explode. This tactic proved to be dangerous for transports, especially if these bomb-rigged robots come to the vessel in schools.

Official Declaration of Peace with Murratri
We are withdrawing from the war with Murratri as an agreement between our nations has been reached. The details of the agreement will not be disclosed to the General Populace as it is not meant to be. We would like to thank John Koch and all members of the discussion. We will no longer support a side and will recontinue trade with Murratri. We would like to tell all entities outside of the meeting that we are to be disclosed from all disputes from here forth.

by **Zyphius** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 9:39 pm

The final pieces of the ACE project with Stormwrath were beginning to come together, and scientists have successfully tested it on Rocket Angel Units. Due to this discovery, their findings were later published to the Zyphian Archives as well as the Ministry of War, and will be later sent to the Stormwrathian Ministry of Defense. They also finished training a select few to effectively use the Phantom Atom Armor in the battlefield. After eight years of rigorous training and punitive discipline methods, these battle hardened supersoldiers were ready to engage the enemy.

Due to Rykzia's declaration of war against Illuminination, Zyphius also issued a declaration of war against Rykzia. The supersoldiers, equipped with Aegis battlesuits, were dispatched to destroy the Rykzian aerial floating fortress 347 kilometers northeast of The Capitol, Illuminination. Whether the Illuminians know or not is not revealed yet, but these Rocket Angels seem ready to take on the opposition.

by **Illuminination** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 10:11 pm

As soon as Minister Tristan heard the he began to have a breakdown. The war was finally going against Murratri and they were scheduled to annex it within the year. Now they had to deal with a new enemy an ocean away. He ordered all reserve forces stationed at Purgatory--who were there to insure murratri didn't attempt to make it operational--to begin a descent Illumininaton and to begin a patrol of Illumine. The Royal Space Navy had orders to blow up all vehicles that could be carrying military weapons, unless they were from a Trusted Trading Partner. He immediately sent a message from his MobiGlas to Ryzkia.

Official Statement Regarding the Recent Attacks
To: President Russell Abrams
From: Grand Minister Tristan

I would like you to leave the conflict, it is futile for you to continue. We have Murratri on the run and a new ally who is willing to fight you if you fight us. War at this point it to be a futile attempt at gaining power, you will only lose power. We are granting you 24 hours to leave the conflict and pay a fine of I$ 100,000,000--to compensate for loses--, if you do not do this we will attack you with the full force of the Royal Air Navy and Royal Space Navy, along with the force of our allies.

He then sent a letter to Zyphius regarding their activities against Rykzia

Official Thank You Letter to Zyphius
To: Supreme Potentate Kelstath Anubiros
From: Grand Minister Tristan
On the half of the People of Illuminination, I would like to thank you for your swift action against Rykzia. We are in debt to your nation for the service that it has done for us. We hope that this conflict, though undoubtedly devastating, will bring our nations closer and allow us to rid Zero of John Koch and his entire regime of war mongers. We must descuss a combined miliatry strategy at the next possible moment, to create an offensive against Rykzia.

Official Declaration of War Against Zyphius
Seeing as how Current Events have unfolded, and how Zyphius has engaged a major ally of Murratri, we are now forced to declare war on Zyphius. We do not enjoy war, as has been stated before, but we must defend our honor and allies. Additionally, the way that Zyphius was so quick to turn a regional conflict into a trans- continental one is sickening and is a sure sign of a war monger. We must remove the evil that masquerades as Zyphius. Atop of all of this, Zyphius has threatened us for nothing more than attempting to end the protests in Experimentstan and then protecting ourselves from Zyphius's war mongering ally, Illuminination.

The aerial fortress, sensing the Zyphian Rocket Angel squads, deployed its first wave of fighters to engage the danger. The guns were being loaded and fired at the enemy. And so began the first conflict between Rykzia and Zyphius. Captained by General Ulrecht Bose, the flying stronghold in the sky activated its redstone shield, as well as its shielding territory.

by **Stormwrath** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 11:34 pm

The war in Illumine has now encompassed Hakurei, now that Rykzia and Zyphius have joined in the war. Because of this, the conflict has quickly escalated into a sort of "world war". Prime Minister Fairs is now crossing fingers as she viewed the headlines. Hopefully it won't turn into the Second Great Zeronian War, as the first was already destructive enough. By this time, many concerned citizens as well as government officials have requested the Stormwrath enter the war against Murratri, but so far Parliament has refused. Emperor Percival, enraged by the indecision of his Prime Minister, burst into her office. "What is the meaning of this?!?", the Emperor roared.

"Your Majesty", Fairs began to stutter. "The-the Zyphians have entered the conflict, and many of our own people have asked us to join the war against-"

Percival then ordered, "Prime Minister, assemble Parliament at Tervalia Dome tonight. We discuss about what to do with the war."

"But they have already deci-"

"I said assemble the Parliament!" And the Emperor left just as dramatically as he entered.

by **Cordeci Empire** » Sun Nov 09, 2014 4:49 am

The Cordeci Empire has pledged to support Illuminination and Experimentstan in its fight against Murratri. We will be providing economic and military aid to the JISACC as well as tactics we use to fight against Rykzia. We know how they operate their military plans and will be willing to lend you assistance.

by **Stormwrath** » Sun Nov 09, 2014 7:14 am

6:30 PM, Tervalia Dome, Tidal City

The Munisci and the Apiscii have once again assembled at the Parliament Chamber in Tervalia Dome to meet up for a certain meeting ordered by Emperor Percival. Only Prime Minister Fairs knew everything about the agenda of tonight's meeting; other members of Parliament only had suspicions, and still a few of them guessed it was related to the recent conflict. The room by now was already filled with Apiscii and Munisci in their seats. Cassandra was at the podium, preparing her data pad.

The doors opened, and the Emperor stepped through. A man from the Imperial Guard then announced his entry. "Ladies and gentlemen, all rise for His Imperial Majesty, 24th Sovereign Monarch of Stormwrath and the 31st Duke of Tidal City, Grand Overseer of the Intergalactic Territories, Watchman of the Stormwrathian Realms, and the Governor of the Stormwrathian people; Emperor Percival I." The assembly all stood up in respect to him as he strode toward his seat. Then they all sat down.

"Munisci and Apiscii, thank you all for coming", Fairs began. "I wouldn't have asked you to come here if this matter wasn't so serious. As you may have known, the international community has already begun to knock on our doorstep asking for our intervention. As we are Zero's strongest military power, we understand that it is natural. However, many political commentators say that if we intervene militarily, then the current war in Illumine could turn into a world war: a 'Second Zeronian War' as they would call it. So I would like your suggestions on how to respond."

After muttering to themselves for a few moments, a Muniscus stood up and said, "Well, you did send another ultimatum to Murratri after they ignored our first one. This would mean we would eventually be dragged into it whether we like it or not."

"True", interjected Fairs. "But if they don't consent to our demands then we will impose more economic sanctions on them."

"But how long can we do that for, Prime Minister?", he countered. "We have to alleviate the crisis in some way."

Another Muniscus raised his hand. "I propose we send a peacekeeping force to the region to keep the peace and order in Illumine while our diplomats will be sent to both parties to mediate on an armistice and a peace treaty."

"What if one of the parties does not want to sit down at the same table and negotiate peace?"

"Then our peacekeepers remain in Illumine. After all, our constitution states that we will not enter a war that does not pose a threat to our national interests; so we can intervene while remaining within the constitution of our land."

And so after 27 minutes of debate, Prime Minister Fairs then called the assembly to vote. "Whoever is in favor of sending peacekeeping troops, please tap your vote on the screen." And 578 of the 720 seats in Parliament had their name tags flash green, while 97 flashed red. "For those in favor of intervening militarily in the war, you may cast your vote." And 482 of the name tags flashed red while 102 flashed green.

"As deliberated by the House of Apiscii and the House of Munisci, we have reached a consensus to send peacekeeping troops to Illumine." And the assembly applauded. "That will be all for this meeting. The assembly is now dismissed."

And so the Stormwrathians sent over peacekeepers to Illumine to try to alleviate the conflict, even rebuilding schools and hospitals to do so. Volunteers also joined them; many of those people happen to be doctors, engineers, carpenters, and teachers. Most of these peacekeepers were stationed in Experimentstan and Eastern Illuminination, in areas affected by the conflict. Each of the personnel has to have a weapon carried along at all times, due to the intensity of the conflict.

After the Great Education Bombings that happened to the many universities of Illuminination, the likes of Illumine City University(ICU), Illumine Port Institute of Technology(IPIT), Sparticious Family College(SFC), the College of Kate and Upton, and the Capitol Institute of Liberal Arts(CILA) and many high schools through out Illuminination. The new Assistance--the Assistance is the official name of the project-- from Stormwrath is allowing them to get back to normal and to construct Aegis Veranda Bomb Shelters that are meant to keep students safe enough to continue studies. The Assistance is also helping rebuild the severely bombed South City and set up Aegis Veranda's to protect the Stanians. The ability of Illuminination to make war has not been severely affected since all Aegis and Anvil factories are hidden in the central Illuminination Bevroren Bergen(Frozen Mountains) which are almost uninhabitable due to the extreme weather of the region. Thanks the Cordeci sending food supplies the government is able to allow citizens larger meals while having more food in the Reserves.

Minister Tristan is now looking for a way to eliminate the Rykzian threat as it is the greatest threat to the Capitol. Zyphius is believed to be planning an aquatic assault on Rykzia soon though and so Tristan sends a Message to Supreme Potentate Kelstath Anubiros.

A Call for Joint Invasion
To: Supreme Potentate Kelstath Anubiros
From: Grand Minister Tristan Sparticious
Dear Kelstath,
The Great Threat of Rykzia calls for immediate action. This action is the land invasion of Rykzia and it is not an option but, rather, a requirement to preserve our sovereignty. We should coordinate a possible invasion along side your nation to invade Rykzia, we will attempt to offer financial incentives to help your nation finance an invasion with a minimum effect on your expenditure. I hope you will coordinate with us.
- Sincerely, Grand Minister Tristan Sparticious
