The LoE (Invite Only)

[Britanania]

Nevermore

The Emperor gave a cruel smile.

"You have no strings to pull, Darzi. If it weren't for the New Warsaw Pact, an ICBM would be on its way to Baghdad. But I digress. You are to pull out of Persia and pay for damages inflicted on the Persians. The Pact's forces will likewise pull out of Iraq."

[North-East Ohio]

Baghdad, Iraq
Darzi: "Oh you seem to underestimate us your highness. If you agree to meet with myself and other Iraqi represenatives so that we may discuss a treaty to end this war, then I won't be forced to use this." *He held up a phone.* "And I won't have to start a massive region wide holy war. I'm sure you wouldn't want that in going on in your Empire."

[Britanania]

Nevermore

"You underestimate, me, Darzi. This isn't the early 21st century. The majority of Muslims live under my rule and have enjoyed benefits you could only dream to give them. As we speak one of the most powerful Muslims in the world is marching against you with a Corps of Muslim soldiers and officers. You are going to come to Nevermore, and you are going to accept the peace I offer you, or in 48 hours I will be sipping my afternoon tea in the rubble of Baghdad as your corpse looks up at me."

[North-East Ohio]

Baghdad, Iraq
Darzi: "No! We shall negotiate a peace treaty between our two nations or I will be forced to appeal to President Orlov and the rest of the New Warsaw Pact for help. If my threat of Holy war in your Empire doesn't scare you, then maybe the threat of World War V does! I'd like to remind you too that Eurasia has kept its nuclear arsenal ready as has East America. I don't think you want a war of this magnitude upon you. Now I will come to Nevermore in a few days and we will discuss a peace treaty or else. For the moment I am ending hostilities and I hope you do the same. Good day your highness."
*He shut the screen off and looked at his phone. If he called the number, Jerusalem would burn. He didn't want to do it but he would. He turned to his aide.*
Darzi: "I want President Orlov on screen now!"

[Britanania]

Nevermore

Alexander sighed.

"Fire several SAMs and cruise missiles at Baghdad. That should prevent him from sending a message out."

Imperial Bases in the Sinai and Arabia

They received the call and punched in the coordinates. The missiles had a speed of almost 1,200 kmh, able to hit Baghdad in less than an hour.

Persian Gulf

Imperial subs in the Gulf also got their message and fired their cruise missiles at Iraqi military bases and cities.

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

Felicia sits in her office and cries... Having major flashbacks from the war and having to murder her own beloved brother... Her son walks into the room silently and comes up to her and simply hugs her. The feeling initially frightens her but she regains her head and wraps an arm around Ernö. She gives him a kiss on the top of his head and turns him toward her and says, through her tears, "Promise me, Ernö. Protect the people."

The Prince looks at his mother in the eyes and says, proudly, "With my life."

[Britanania]

Budapest, Hungary

His Eminence the Grand Vizier, Anthony, the Prince Tarkin's plane landed just outside Buda Castle. He was accompanied by his Staff, 12 members of the Royal Guard, his wife Milena, Countess of Niskic, and their 16 year old son James.

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

"Anthony! Its been too long!" Felicia says, as she greets the Grand Vizier with the Prince. "How have you been?"

[Britanania]

Budapest, Hungary

He bowed as the Queen greeted him.

"I have been well, Your Highness. The Iraqis have been giving me some sleeplessness, but rather it be them then the Communists." He chuckled at his little joke as he noticed the young Prince.

"And this must be Prince Erno. Already he has the mark of a fine Monarch."

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

Prince Ernö bows to the Grand Vizier, "Its a pleasure to meet you, Uram."

"Hungary is a very good place, still, to get some relaxation in." Felicia looks at the company he brought. "Greetings. Anthony, you need to introduce me to your family."

[Britanania]

Budapest, Hungary

He nodded as he gestured to his wife, who bowed in turn.

"I'm sure you remember Her Majesty the Countess of Niksic. Her Family were some of your Father's earliest supporters.

"Kegyelmességed" she said in her soft voice. She smiled to the Queen as Tarki gestured to his son, who also bowed.

"My son James, a student at the Imperial Military Academy."

"It is an honour, Your Highness."

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

"Welcome all of you to the prestigious Buda Castle." Felicia says to the Family then turns to Tarkin, "What brings you here, my friend?"

[Britanania]

Budapest, Hungary

"For once, my Friend, it is just for a friendly visit. No business, no ulterior motive, just a visit to see old Friends."

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary.

"Then our families must go on a tour of the country! I need to get out of the office, myself." Felicia says, enthusiastically.

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Hungary

"Yes, always," Tarkin commented going through the Castle.

"It is good to be back in Budapest. Is Ramu in Bucharest?"

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

"Yes, my husband is back in Romania. The province hasn't been a nation in over 50 years. It has a lot of work that needs to be done."

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Hungary

"Of course. Perhaps an amendment to the Pact of Steel can be made to increase French investments for the betterment of the Kingdom of Romania-Moldova"

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

"That's not something discuss with me. At the moment, the two Kingdoms are just that. Two kingdoms."

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Hungary


"Then relay that message to Ramu when you hear from him again. I'm sure several billion Francs will be beneficial."

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

"I'll do just that. He'll be incredibly grateful. And knowing him, he'll want to take you out for drinks." Felicia says with a laugh.

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Hungary


Tarkin really laughs now.

"Some good Romanian brew does sound nice."

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

"He definitely knows how to have a good time. I'm not quite that speed, but I can show you a fun time, here in Hungary."

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Hungary

"Of course. Something to take our minds off of this Cold War."

[Vergenskia]

Budapest, Hungary

"We'll need to go to Szombatheley for some good Hungarian Tokay." Felicia says with a smile. "You do indulge, yes?"

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Hungary

He smiled.

"During his invasion of Hungary, my Father brought back a large case of Tokay."
