Sir Charles Taylor

I am writing you to confirm that His Imperial Majesty Fedor I will be attending the tenth year anniversary of the marvelous Viceroy Lothwyn Boudica Cathmore II. The longevity of a monarch's reign is always worth commemorating, as it is a symbol of growth and stability. His Imperial Majesty will be attending with Empress Sophia.

High regards,

The Office of His Imperial Majesty

Honorable Sir Taylor,

It'd be a great pleasure to attend the celebration of your nation honoring the decade-long-reign of Her Excellency. Please count on my attendance for the occasion and if possible I'll be bringing along two of my personal bodyguards unless you feel that is excessive then they shall remain behind. I look forward to attending.

Cordially,
Empress Ortfiné Fredericka von Eylstadt

To the esteemed Sir Taylor of Morrdh

As chiefest of ambassadors to the Civilized World from the Jesheodite peoples and their Federation, the Director-General and I would be delighted to partake in the festivities surrounding the anniversary of Her Excellency's ascension to the throne ten years ago. While I will be acting as the primary representative for the Jesheodite peoples upon the Day of Celebration, Director-General Hnae T'Fesse will also be in attendance on behalf of the Federal Directorate, along with members of the press and, as is necessary, a small security detail, which will be operating from a designated suite within appropriately secured lodgings for our delegation.

Our Executive Security Team Chief, Mr. Ko'o Oishigva, will arrive three days in advance in order to verify the security of our lodgings and the events and to familiarize himself with the local constabulary and its procedures.

Warmest regards,

Zh'Woe Kiuyod, G'Foikva Cor-T'Fesse,

Subject: Protest of Morridane Commenwealth agitation and wanton aggression against the Ordenite State and Nation.

---

It is unfortunate that such a anniversary of the reign of what Morridanes could only recall as a benevolent monarch will not see any head of state and or official attending the celebrations in Morrdh from the Fourth Reich of the United World Order. Due to the previous actions done by the Commenwealth which include the attack on Dathel Port and it's port facilities and it's further involvement in support of the illegal state of Zvezda when it and it's handlers in the People's Unified Federation attacked the Kashubian Republic and started the 2nd RSU War that resulted in a plethora of death and misery for it's population. Therefore our decision to not attend the celebration of your Morridane monarch comes as a protest to the reckless actions of the Commonwealth in recent years.


Sincerely signed,
Valentin Voelker, Reich Minister of Foreign Affairs.

(To:) To: Sir Charles Taylor, Private Secretary to the Crown, Commonwealth of Morrdh
(Фром:) From: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kashgar

"Greetings to you Sir Taylor,

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been instructed to contact you, regarding the ten-year anniversary of Her Excellency ascending to her position as Viceroy of Morrdh, and the invitation we have received from your government. We wish to inform you that President Safadi has expressed great interest in attending such an event. He looks forward to meeting with your government, and others, and being able to congratulate Her Excellency on such an occasion. The President intends to depart our country at once for your domain by air, and has asked for a location that his plane may reside, transportation, and modest lodging for himself. He does not feel the security risk to be too great, but will travel with a small security detail. His current schedule will only allow him to be gone for so long, as a result, his family will not be in attendance."

[Morrdh]

Sir Charles read through the various responses, noted down any special requirements to be forwarded onto the prevalent persons, and drafted a reply to each of the letter he'd received. The Ordenite reply was surprising, even if its content wasn't, so Sir Charles sent back a polite message saying that the Ordenites' letter had been acknowledged and that for the foreseeable the Commonwealth would politely decline any invitations from the Fourth Reich. Other letters typically followed the same old pattern of acknowledging a nation's intention to attend the celebration and asked for a few administrative details such as expected size of the party coming and any dietary issues. A number of hotels in Morrdun had been notified some months prior that the Crown wished to reserve rooms for an upcoming diplomatic function, none would be left out of pocket and every effort was being made to confirm how many rooms would be required.

Similarly alot of effort was going in to cover all the security arrangements, various territorial police forces across Morrdh were being asked to supply volunteers to supplement the constables and part-time special constables of the Morrdun Metropolitan Police. The Royal Morridane Mounted Police, the Commonwealth's federal law enforcement agency, would also be present but they were only detailed with the security of guests during their stay in Morrdun. In addition the Morridane Armed Forces were also present with a couple of RMAF Regiment squadrons being deployed to Morrdun International Airport and an anti-air frigate of the Royal Morridane Navy at anchor in the River Morr close to the Crown's residence of Morrdun Tower. Plus there was also a presence from the Morridane Army in the form of the resident infantry battalion based out of Coldridge Barracks next to the Tower, this battalion performed public duties and mounted sentries at the Tower dressed in a dark green Dress Uniform and Home Service Helmet. In barracks scattered round Morrdun there was an infantry brigade especially detailed for the celebrations, though they would only be active during an emergency with the police forming the public face of security.

It was hoped that it would be enough, though Sir Charles hoped the only trouble they experienced was co-ordinating efforts with the security teams of the expected guests. Other units of the Armed Forces were being positioned at bases close to the Morridane capital, additional interceptor squadrons of the Royal Morridane Air Force were also being deployed. These plans and deployments would be constantly reviewed and changed as the list of guests grew, Sir Charles still had many other responses to shift through as more kept arriving.

It was evening time when Sir Charles was finally able to read through the responses received that morning, as well as organising the guest list for the upcoming celebration he still had his primary duty of Private Secretary to the Crown to fulfil. Alot of it involved sorting through and vetting the vast amount of mail that arrived at the Tower, though after it had been through a series of security checks, drafting responses for the Vicereine to review unless she wished to write her own personal reply. Sir Charles was pleased to see that the People's Unified Federation, the Commonwealth's ally and southern neighbour, would be sending a representative despite current internal issues. He had mixed feelings that the King of Imbrinium would be attending given relations in recent years between the Commonwealth and the Kingdom, though he made a note to adjust the security arrangements accordingly in case of possible public protests.

Then there was the Qoryxern response.

Sir Charles read it through carefully several times to ensure he didn't miss anything important and that he got the tone correct, he also wrote down a series of notes that he double checked on each read through. Keeping the Qoryxern letter for reference along with his notes, Sir Charles took his time drafting a reply and repeatedly checked his notes as he wrote. He also called for a translator to make sure that that it was grammatically correct.

TO:Ludwig-Wilhelm Schönbäch-Reuss-Schärer, Kaiser von Qoryx

Dear Sir,

Firstly I like to take the opportunity to say thank you for your response and apologies in advance if this letter hasn't translated all that well into your native language.

I note your concerns regarding regional events that the Commonwealth has been involved in, though I hope you'll be pleased to know that these events have largely ended now. We are delighted that you are still attending and fully understand that you can only stay for a short duration, it is our hope that despite a brief visit it will still be an enjoyable one and lead the way for diplomatic relations at some point in the future.

And lastly I have carefully noted your security arrangements, we will do our best to accommodate them but in return I ask that a representative is sent ahead in advance to ensure that we meet your requirements prior to your arrival.

Sir Charles Taylor
Private Secretary to the Crown
Commonwealth of Morrdh

Sir Charles checked through the letter a couple more times and dismissed the Qoryxern translator before having the letter dispatched.

Morrdun International Airport

The terminal building still retained the 1930s Art Deco look that it was originally constructed with, though it had to be expanded over the years every effect was made to ensure that the terminal retained a uniform look where possible whilst making concessions to modern requirements. It made it difficult to tell what was original and what was a later addition, great care was taken so that they blended into one another. Likewise the rest of the airport showed the care taken to preserve its original look where possible in everything from the control tower through to the hangers, but concessions were made here and there to ensure that it was fully capable of operating as a modern day airport.

As part of the security arrangements for the upcoming celebrations a pair of RMAF Regiment units, a field squadron and an air defence squadron, had been deployed to bolster the airport's security. The Aviation Security Unit of the Royal Morridane Mounted Police normally provided security cover to the airport, as well as other international airports in the Commonwealth, and could call upon local police if needed. As part of the celebrations the RMMP presence was increased and were assigned a military liaison officer so that they could call upon military units for assistance if the need arose. Whilst the RMMP covered the terminal building, the RMAF Regiment covered the airport runway and hangers. Rapier SAM batteries were sited along the airport perimeter and regular patrols of the hangers and airport apron, sniffer dogs were also deployed as the Morridanes tried to cover every security angle they could think of.

There was another military presence in the form of the tri-service Commonwealth Guard, a ceremonial unit made up of members from all three Services of the Morridane Armed Forces. They were to provide an honour guard for guests as they arrived, though they could provide protection if needed since their wooden stock L1A1 SLRs were still fully functional. Each detachment wears the standard ceremonial uniforms of their respective service, though with the addition of a white belt.

1300 IAFM base in East Mordent

Captain Augusto Paul Sobairce was holding a training session with his platoon leaders and platoon sergeants about tactics and what and what not to do in combat with being a new company commander with all new platoon leaders and platoon sergeants.

About midway through a 3D terrain map of what tactics worked and what didn’t work in the past wars, these tactics classes along with living training were the best thing to train the new officers and sergeants and what Augusto though could keep them alive. He had PTSD along with survivors guilt for losing some many of his troopers and fellow soldiers in the 22nd cavalry.
A corporal walked in and stood at attention as the young captain looked up.

“Yes, corporal can I help you?”

“ Sir the commander wishes to see you right away in his office”

“Ok I’m on my way, the first sergeant take over the training”

“Yes sir”

Augusto knocked on the commander's door and the battalion sergeant major answered the door which took Augusto by surprise.

“Come in young captain how's your command coming I’ve heard great reports from the first sergeant about your training and you are driven like no other company I have in this battalion.”

“Thank you, sir, just doing my job to train my leaders about the last war and how to fight the future wars”

“I bet your wondering why I called you here especially with the sergeant major in here also”

“Yes sir I’m wondering if I’m in trouble sir”

“No captain your not please have a seat I have something to talk to you about”

Augusto went from attention to a more relaxed but still keeping his military etiquette as strict as possible not knowing what was going on.

“Relax captain, I got a phone call this morning and orders cut from brigade command a little while ago. The phone call was from the king asking if I could spare you for about a week or so. The king has asked for you to come home in an official capacity. So pack your bags you have an hour to catch the daily military flight back to the kingdom and home. Remember you are on orders not leave you will act and show respect to your new rank and commission and the cavalry.”

“Yes sir as the captain stood up at attention”

“Dismissed captain, have a safe trip I will have a car take you to your quarters and then to the airfield to catch your flight,”

Captain Augusto dismissed his self and walked out of the battalion HQs and put his patrol cap on. There was the same corporal that told them the commander wanted to see him.

The corporal drove the captain to his quarters, Augusto packed all of his formal uniforms and overnight bag, he hurried but not really wanting to leave his men. The staff corporal drove Augusto to the airfield as he sat in the back wondering what could be so important to call him back home knowing his siblings and mother wherein Gholgoth and not looking to return anytime soon.

The captain boarded the C-17 with a few others and some cargo heading back to the mainland. This would be a six-hour trip. Augusto would arrive in the middle of the night not something he wanted to do.

Six hours later at an undisclosed military base, the C-17 landed and taxied near the terminal and lowered the ramp as soon as it was lowered an SUV pulled up and as Prince Augusto walked down the ramp to find the crown’s royal plane and a C-10 loaded and ready.
Two gentlemen dressed in suits waiting for the prince to depart the plane and to whisked away to the royal crown’s plane.
The plane carrying the king and the closest family to him took to the air for the long trip east side the region to Morrdh.
The prince talked to his father about where they were headed the king was very short about where they were headed. The king asked questions about the rebuilding of East Mordent and the military and how things were going with him and his unit.

The princess climbed and picked on her brother some having not a lot of family time with everyone gone she really missed times with her older family members.

After awhile they all settled in for the long flight the prince having a long day and night took to the time to catch up on sleep, laying there his thoughts were of his men and the thought of why was it so important that he accompany his father the king on a state visit.
Eighteen hours after leaving the kingdom they arrived in Morrdun, the prince looked out the window at the city he once loved as much as his home.

It had been a long time with a lot of water under the bridge since he was last here, well since he was rescued from the country by the SAS. The landing at the international airport was as normal as any other landing. The security was tight military was everywhere the security detail had arrived two days before and unloaded the armored vehicles to go to the hotel where the whole floor was secured for the visit. Security was tight everywhere this was a big affair for Morrdh and the Queen.

A few hours before the formal state dinner and affair was filled with getting ready for the king wearing his royal military suit for such things as this and the prince was wearing the finest uniform for affairs like this with his sword and full everything.

The car ride was a quiet one the king lost in his thoughts of how he wished the queen was here, the princess was looking out the window amazed by the sights of a new country having never been to Morrdh before. The Prince was lost in thoughts about what to say and not knowing why he was still here.

As the pull up with crowds booing them as they walked up and protestors holding signs, the word must have gotten out about them coming to town.

They walked down the line to the queen shaking hands and bowing when needed. When the king reached Queen Cathmore, he took out a small box from his pocket and opened it as he the king bowed before her, she opened the box to find a gold and diamond bracelet of two doves connecting a olive branch of peace with a diamond connecting the birds with smaller diamonds around the whole thing.

The prince was next he didn’t really know what to do so he took the queen’s hand and placed the bracelet on her wrist then kissed her hand as he bowed to her.

Morrdun International Airport

"Оч гооднесс", he whispered. He began to realize his surroundings. There was a voice speaking to him, it was one of his personal bodyguards, Sulim. The plane was approaching Morrdh, and his meeting with foreign heads of state. He thanked Sulim who left him to prepare. He slowly raised himself out of bed, he was a man of average height, but strong figure. His complexion was darker, perhaps even a little bit more than the average, whether it was ancestry or not he couldn't say. He did not care. He had the trademark dark hair and had an accompanying black mustache. One part of his character that easily grabbed attention was his piercing green eyes. Indeed, many Kolechians had that about them. Dark or vibrant, they were a people who one might say, could almost see right through you. Indeed then, Sergey was a true man of the people.

The private jet cruised down out of the azure sky, the jet seemed to lightly touch the runway as it began to slow itself tremendously, as to taxi the rest of the way. The jet finally made it's proper stop in view of the large and guarded complex. President Safadi had taken much time to watch their descent and landing, he had never seen Morrdh before, not in person. He finally rose from his seat and made his way towards the exit, thanking the crew on his way. The stairs were ready for him, he took his first breath of air from this foreign nation as he walked down, a nation with vast history that it and everything he saw this way. A fine and impressive ceremonial guard was waiting for him at the bottom. They kindly stood at attention for him as he took his first steps upon this new ground. He saluted them as he gradually made his way past them.

He was wearing a brown suit and pants with a black shirt and tie underneath, and matching black shoes with a gold watch about his wrist to inform him of the hour. He and his two guards Sulim and Said, both men of imposing figure and stature walked behind him. The crew trailed behind, carrying a few bags of luggage. The President had to be back in Kolechia soon. But it was all a precaution. Sergey and his guards entered a nice looking car that had been graciously provided for them by their hosts. The crew in turn made the small walk back to the plane. The fine car slowly drove off towards the large and heavily defended complex of the airport, and eventually through Morrdh itself.

"How are you doing Mr. President?", asked Said. He was peering out the windows just as Sergey was, but unlike Safadi, he was looking for threats, not views to satisfy his curiosity of this foreign country. "I'm doing fine, glad to be off the plane." Both men could agree, the trip had been long, very long. "God-willing we can get you to your room soon..." The car continued to drive on, the large complex inching closer and closer to them.

The People's Unified Federation had an advantage over other visitors in that the Commonwealth was their neighbor, they could afford take a more casual approach to their visit. It was a flight of under a thousand Kilometers from the border city of Calzon, and eight hours wasn't too bad. Delegates could fall asleep in the evening, and wake up in Morrdun, the Capital of the Commonwealth. They could have taken a faster transport, but when you have a Presidential Air Ship, it was nice to show it off on occasion.

The Mokan Tres was a beauty, a long airship decorated with Green, white and Blue stripes along its body, much in the same manner as the Federal Flag. The animals and red stars were missing, but along the gondola the Seal of the Federation was adorn on the doors and side. Inside one would find light green carpet and gold plated hand rails, leading into the main hallway and a small dining area. Mokan redwood, known for its durability and vibrant color, decorated the walls, hand carved with various designs. Three red stars cut from the same redwood hung on the single beige wall dividing the dining area from the kitchen: A tribute the Triple Alliance that formed the Federation.

At the end of the hall, acting President Rutilio Gomez stood on the observation deck, enjoying the sight of the city below. The sun was just coming up, giving a warm glow to the skyline. This would be his first major diplomatic effort as acting President for the year. Naturally, he was mildly nervous, but this was a celebration for an ally, not a high stakes negotiation. Next to him stood Elizabeth Franshaw, Foreign Minister. Although initially Gomez had distanced himself from her, she was a capable diplomat. Even if she was probably still spying for Mr. Milano.

“Ready for this?”

“Of course, Her Excellency's Vicereine Lothwyn Boudica Cathmore II is looking forward to meeting with you.” Elizabeth just rattled off the Queen’s full title with almost no effort. Nothing quite like the minions of your former rival showing off skills they knew you lacked. He turned to the other woman in the room, speaking perhaps to the one person he had more experiences than.

“How about you, Queen Villa? Ready?”

She shuffled her feet a bit, before glancing sideways at Elizabeth. A quick smile between the girls and she grew confident. Standing up straight she looked him in the eye and simply said: “Hai”. She was barely a teenager, but still a Queen. No doubt nervous about her first international visit to another Royal court, but she must have been talking a lot with Elizabeth as of late, there was no way the two girls became so close in one night.

“Señor Presidente, we will be landing in 20 minutes, Embassy Staff is on the tarmac ready to take us to the tower.”

“Copy that, we'll be ready.”

The intercom on the Airship came in crystal clear, just another thing the Surians ensured was top of the line rather than “just practical”. Next to the Acting President of the Federation, Elizabeth recognized of the three, she was the only skilled diplomat, it would certainly be an interesting trip.

Recipient(s): The Respectful Governments of the Republic of Kolechia, Jesheodite Federation, and "People's" Unified Federation Date: 2 March, 2780 AUC Sender(s): Àïxa Kalixte Vàtatzés, Popular Chairwoman of the Commissariat of Interstate Affairs and Relations Subject: [Intentionally Left Blank] To the representatives of the aforementioned governments, The irony of self-proclaimed leftist nations attending the anniversary of what can only be labelled an enemy of the people cannot be understated. It has become apparent to our government that the governments listed above are, in no way, dedicated to the righteous emancipation of the workers, farmers, and other oppressed and marginalised members of society that are continuously exploited for profit by corporations and other greed-centric perversions that are clearly too embedded in your societies and have, by extension, caused your revisionist governments to do away with the cause and merely continue the cycle of exploitation founded by your old governments. The revisionism of Marxist principles being utilised by the Republic of Kolechia, Jesheodite Federation, and the “People’s” Unified Federation—as if a leftist government that still allows monarchy in a constituent can even declare itself as being for the people—to justify the continuation of capitalism is not only morally questionable, but one must consider the kind of people who vote for a government who consistently feeds them lies in order to maintain power. When the reactionary government of the United World Order sees sense to not entertain the government of a dictatorship of nobility, one must question when self-proclaimed “champions of the people” are jumping at the chance to send representatives of their own. It is not said lightly when it is determined by the Alemannic government that the governments of Kolechia, Jesheoda, and the “People’s” Unified Federation are not only traitors to the revolutionary cause of World Socialism, but also traitors to the people they were founded to protect. As such, effective immediately, the Alemannic state will be closing its respective embassies in Kolechia, Jesheoda, and the “People’s” Unified Federation and ambassadors thereof will be subsequently expelled, effective immediately, from Alemannia.

Recipient(s): Whomever it may concern in the Morridane government Date: 2 March, 2780 AUC Sender(s): Àïxa Kalixte Vàtatzés, Popular Chairwoman of the Commissariat of Interstate Affairs and Relations Subject: Protest of the Morridane Commonwealth To the whomever this correspondence finds, The Alemannic state is formally protesting the celebratory anniversary of what is essentially a dictator and enemy of freely elected governments throughout all of the region. But, in the case of the Morridane dictator, one must include the atrocities committed on her behalf by the Commonwealth government in the Red Star Union. This Architect of Death and Destruction not only oversaw the complete destruction of the city of Dathel Port, but also the obliteration of the hundreds of thousands of persons that called the city home. It should come of no surprise when, out of mere respect for the millions that perished when the Commonwealth asserted itself against the sovereignty of another nation-state, that the Alemannic state cannot in good faith attend what can only be seen as a celebration of death and the jubilations of a murderer who illegally rules.

[Morrdh]

Constables of the Morrdun Metropolitan Police lined the streets of the Morridane capital, their job was to keep the crowds under control and the visiting guests had safe and interrupted journeys. Patrol cars of the Royal Morridane Mounted Police topped and tailed the convoys of the foresaid guests, providing an extra level of protection should the need arise. In the sky above the city streets were police helicopters, each one either tracking one of the convoys or watching streets that surrounded the route. Military presence was light, focused on the area surrounding the city in the form of naval pickets beyond the mouth of the River Morr and AEW aircraft keeping a constant vigilance. The Morridane Army had deployed some of its units to certain sites outside of Morrdun, they would stay there in tents along with helicopter squadrons of the RMAF as part of a rapid response unit. Morrdun stood as ready as it ever would.

Guests were beginning to arrive at Morrdun Tower, in turn each car pulled up by the main gate of the Tower and were ushered in by the servants. A pair of sentries standing to attention in rifle green Dress Uniform flanked every large doorway, each one carried a wooden stock L1A1 SLR with ceremonial white rifle straps. Once inside the guests were led to a large foyer where the Vicereine, easily identified by the silver silk dress and tiara crown she wore, and numerous Morridane officials greeted them. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the Imbrinium King and his two guests, particularly Prince Augusto who she had had a liaison prior to recent unpleasantries. She kept a smile on her face and greeted the Imbriniums, gracefully accepting the King's gift as well as Augusto's own gift. "Its a pleasant surprise to see you here, though I'm afraid I still have others to greet before we can properly talk."

"Oh, and Vermillion's here further down the line." Lothwyn added. "He's under orders to be polite, so play nice."
