The Rotovian National News sybol flashs accross the screen as a series of news images come into veiw, intermediatly accompanied by the theme song.

This fades to a female reporter in designer clothing standing infornt of a large manner.

Reporter: "By order of the Aeropagus Council the Charters has been stripped of all land and title. This suprising move was a result of Dr Charters surrendering the Rotovian Medical Fleet to the forces of West Asia.

In the words of Sir Joseph Hermes, Chairman of the Aeropagus Council to allow oneself to be captured by Barbarian forces casts dishonour upon both oneself, and one's nation. It is therefore nessacary for the Nation to seperate itself from this dishonour.

Over the next few days all family assests will be seized and the Charters Family will no longer be allowed to use the title his/her Royal Grandeur and will evicted from all lands owned by the State.

A Family Spokeperson claimed they will ldoge an Appeal to her Eminency Lady Nicoletta Baccheus. Being as the Baccheus Family hold veto power of all decisions of the Council. Only time will tell wether the actiosn of one man will doom a Family.

We would protest this. What could he do? He was facing a battle-ready and aggresive navy under the command of an imperialist and trigger-happy nation! It would be better if he were revenged, rather than shamed.

The shame and dishonour an surrender curse the entire nation and deserves nothing short of this action. In accordance with the Doctrine of the Ancients 'Those of Nobel Blood and Birth cannot surrender lest shame befall them and all that sarround them'.

"At this moment Her Eminency is occupied with other matters and will consider the plea of the Charters Family in good time. She does however wish to note that the Charters' voted against electing her father to the postion of Chairperson"

"This is an outrage. Our Family Bloodline leads back to the founding of the Empire. The Charters are amoung the most honourable an Purebreed Houses and demand that our title and estate be returned to us immediately"
