*Upon the Isam Information Network (Isam's primary news network) channels across the globe Mark Jehin, main anchorman of Home News, is dressed in sombre black, with a single white lilly pinned to his coat. Behind him can clearly be seen a crucifix in the Isam design - Christ Upon the Cross, encircled by the barbed wire that represents the non-Christian world to the people of Isam. He has obviously been crying after hearing teh news he is about to deliver but clears his throat and speaks to the camera.*
"Today the Imperial Faith Union, the Holy Empire of the Isam Nation, is mourning the death of the Holy Father. The Unamed Ruler passed away earlier this mourning after a series of strokes. His Holiness has been suffering from these for several months and although he accepted them as a flagellation to work off his very few sins so that he may be certain of entering Heaven, the Nation will still mourn the loss of their spiritual and corporeal leader.
"When the Holy Father died, the Seceretary to the Holy Father took up the governing of the Most Holy Empire until the new Holy Father can be decided upon by the Hierarchy as a suitable Voice of the Lord God Upon Earth. Until then the Seceretary shall ensure that we are not attacked. Following this event the Second, Third, Fourth and Seventh Armies were recalled from overseas along with the Third, Fifth and Sixth Fleets and the Fourth, Fifth and Seventh Winged Batallions [[Air forces]].
"Although it grieved him to order them to remain at their duties the Second Fleet, Third Winged Batallion and the Fifth Army are to remain at their duties as foreign Christian forces require their aid.
"The funeral is to take place in several days, once the necessary Rites of Consecration have taken place and those valient soldiers of the Imperial Faith Union who still fight for the Faith are to be issued with direct-links to the funeral service. We, the IIN, have been granted the exclusive Right of Observation to the Outside World and it will be shown live on this channel.
"Following the death of the Holy Father several cities throughout the Union have rioted, but these have been put down with the help of their resident garrissons and Interrogator-Chaplains.
"For the funeral, the entire First Army along with the Tol Isam City Garrison will patrol the Holy City in shifts in order to prevent disturbances. At the same time the First Winged Battallion will defend against air attacks and the First Fleet will defend the coast. Eye of God Observation Satellites will moniter the region.
"I have also been instructed to inform any watchers that foreign ambassadors will be welcomed to the funeral, but bodyguards will not be permitted beyond the Inner wall except in exceptional circumstances and on no circumstances will anyone but the ambassador and his or her personal aide be permitted within the Great Cathedral.
"In addition, all baggage of all foreigners entering Tol Isam for the period will be searched"
*Jehin rises and leaves the camera's view, to be replaced with another presenter, who has also been crying, but who appears more composed*
"In other news..."
