High Prelate Begins Genocide on Catholics and all Christians

Aerion
20-03-2004, 07:28
High Prelate Reoi Ero, who is primer inter pares of the twenty member Prelacy, leading body of the New Aerion Order fascist party of Aerion, ordered the public crucifixion of every Bishop of Aerion. This was immediately carried out, and the Bishops were crucified in the Forum of Astevane, the central square where many major government buildings are as well as the Palace where the Prelates live. Many members of the New Aerion Order came by to taunt them, and some even held burning torches under their bodies. The cathedrals, the center of each of the diocese of Aerion, are currently in the process of disassmebling as they are being bulldozed to the ground. Monastic communities of every religion are being nationalized, or otherwise destroyed, and members put into the street. Public religious symbols have been made illegal by the Prelacy. While some of the other Prelates disagree with the extreme actions of the High Prelate, it is mostly due to political reasons, and the disagreement does not go so far as for them to stop the High Prelate.

"Should we intervene?"
"I believe it un-wise, as our forces could only do so much, if not so little."
"Indeed....Hopfully someday we will be."
"Agreed, some day, if not a few days in the future, we will be able."

We would like to remind the Aeronians that they are treading a dangerous path. This is a large world, and one must ensure that there is peace and order. Perhaps the leaders of the NAO may come to Roania, and together we can discuss a peaceful solution?

Brother Catholics, this shows plainly that we must support the College of Cardinals and the Papal Nuncio in this most difficult of times. And I hope it demonstrates to all that we must go for as conservative approach as we may.

"YOU LET HIM WHAT?" Prime Minister Cartwright screamed at Darquis. "The Princess will have my head! He needs to clear these transmissions before hand..."

Simon Darquis stared coldly at his master. "My lord, we have a duty as Catholics."

"Yes, but why couldn't you send that transmission? Off the record? Now the Aeronians think that the Principality is advocating war!"

"Aren't we, my Lord?"

"Well... yes... but we need to wait until we get some clarification from the Papacy. We don't go around saying it."

Public Address to International Television by the High Prelate of Aerion:

An elderly man with sharp features sits at an oak desk, wearing an elegant white uniform with golden lapels, and gold buttons. He wears a black sash across his uniform, signifying him as the High Prelate. He appears to be in his seventies, being bald. His cold brown eyes stare out as if he had killed hundreds of men.

"The Bishops whom have been crucified were traitors, and therefore have been executed as such. They caused subversion in the people, and spread disorder. They were not executed for being Catholics, but were executed for being subversive period. Religion is subversive, detrimental to our people, and therefore the New Aerion Order has chosen to remove it from our society. Our law dictates traitors will be executed. The Bishops were well aware that when they refused to step down from office on orders of the Prelacy, they would be executed. Catholicism is only followed by a very small percentage of the population, and therefore the majority do not care for it."

Raysia welcomes those persecuted for their beliefs, and will keep its borders open for them.

Please let your people know that they are welcome in Raysia, and that, if necessary, we will airlift them from your nation.

If you fail to properly inform them, we will either drop leaflets or hijack your radiowaves... but they will be given the choice to come here.

Do not deny them their freedom. Or else.

At a Raysian Council meeting (closed-doors, I'm just showing this for character)

Hatch (GP): "We have to do something about this problem in Aerion. What would happen if we attempted a liberation?"

Race (MCIC): "Against just Aerion? We could do it easy."

Hatch: "What consequences?"

Race: "That's the problem... they are close allies with Roania and Belem. If we do anything, those sick faggots in their extremist governments will just come after us... most likely with nuclear force."

Hatch: *sigh* "Then there is nothing we do... militarily. What would happen if we somehow stared an uprising in their nations?"

Nylander (DIS): "These guys are no better than terrorists. IF their people start to uprise, they'll just kill them."

Hatch: "Then all we can do is pray for them."

Race: "There appears to be no other option... anything we do would result in more death."

Nylander: "We could try to leak information to their people, through underground networks... at least let people know that they're welcome here, if they can escape their borders."

Hatch: "Then, I guess we'll consider a radio hijack... or possibly an undercover force... or something.... anything."

The High Prelate has ordered that all priests shall be expelled from the nation, and any Catholics whom wish to leave may assemble at the ports to be loaded into large cargo ships which, in the words of the High Prelate, "will carry those fools to any ignorant nation that will accommodate them." The cargo ships will leave port when the High Prelate orders that they may. It is rumored some party leaders, and Prelates of the Prelacy wished for the execution of all Catholics. Others advocated a more sane approach, though most likely considering the character of the men in the Prelacy, for their own political reasons. The Veiled Council of Thirteen, mentioned sparsely in the past as the secret society behind hundreds of years of politics in Aerion, or so they claim, including bringing the Divine Emperor to power, may be behind the scenes in this if the claims of some party leaders are to be believed that they are behind the Prelacy's government.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been given permission by the Prelacy to send a charge d'affaires ad hoc to the Stronghold of Roan to speak to Princess Malissa Black.

*at the Raysian Capitol building*

An advisor comes into the room where the Raysian Council is meeting. "Sirs, Aerion just broadcast a message to their people... listen to this!"

He presses play on a PDA that recorded the broadcast

Hatch just smiles, "Our prayers have been answered."

Race: "I'll make sure there are transports waiting outside their borders, waiting to accept the refugees."

A day or two later, Several air transports fly into friendly neighboring nations around Aerion, while smaller NVTOLs rush to meet up with the cargo ships to provide safe escort to friendly territory.

Seventy huge cargo ships, some so old it seems the motors were barely moving, departed Port Deir on the southwest coast of Aerion in the night. Several hundred thousand Catholic refugees, and clergy were packed onto the ships heading for international waters. As they neared the border of Aerion seas, and international water a huge explosion ripped through the front three ships. Them, as if in a synchronized chain reaction, all seventy ships began exploding, the huge flames illuminating the night skies...........

All that was left were sinking hulks of flames, corpses in the water, and burning fuel illuminating the night.

In reaction to the actions of Belem, the Prelacy has ordered an immediate purge of all Catholics in the nations. Because of the previous Religious Identification Policy ( [url]http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=127887&highlight=[\url]), this process is quickly expedited, as Catholics are easily recognizable. New Aerion Order officers, Ministry of State Security Agents, and soldiers of the Aerion Army are going through the streets of major cities shooting Catholics on sight, dragging them out of their homes to shoot them, or burning their homes down. They are assisted by agents of the Religious Regulatory Agency. Many Catholic churches are being burned to the ground, or otherwise destroyed. Further fleets are being moved.

"If these nations attempt to invade Aerion, I order all the peoples of Aerion who still have pride in this great nation, and the New Aerion Order to rise up against them. We must fight the Catholic agenda, which is the death of our great people. For now, I see that I must order the next in the stage of this plan to purge our nation of traitors. All Christians, those who acknowledge Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour shall be killed on sight. Because of the actions of your Catholic bretheren, this action is required. We will not stop until every Catholic, and every Christian is dead. We would like to thank the agents of the Religious Regulatory Agency for aiding us in identifying these traitors, and citizens who are external agents of the Ministry for State Security. Thank you, you do pride to your nation. I would also like to enlist the efforts of the Ministry of Public Security, and all police officers under them to begin participating in this purge."

The southwest coastal regions of Aerion have long been known to have a strongly communist bent, and not always acknowledge the central government in Aerion. The southwest is almost its own nation, with a strong separate culture.The New Aerion Order primarily holds strongest sway over the north, and central regions of Aerion. The south, and particularly the southwest is not very supportive of it. Therefore, this has affected Aerion's Navy. It has been reported, by rumors in the intelligence community, that the southwest has been a hotbed of intrigue in planning a secessionist movement.

The following message has been transmitted to the invading nations by the Admirals of the First, Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth carrier battle groups in the southwestern sea represented by Admiral Toeru Kwe:

"I Admiral Toeru Kwe, declare that the officers of the Aerion Navy do not agree with the actions of the central government. Therefore, we, of the First, Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth carrier battle groups declare our independence from the Aerion Armed Forces chain of command, and the New Aerion Order. We will not act to combat the approaching forces, and are putting down New Aerion Order Loyalists in our own ranks as we speak. Numerous Generals on shore in the southwest are prepared to take the same action when they deem it safe to do so. We are engaging the Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth carrier battle groups which remain loyal to the New Aerion Order as this transmission goes out."

(Can you describe how a carpet bombing affects the area, how wide the area is, and how big the fortresses are?)ooc: what are you talking about? You have been attacked by an EMP bomb in orbit above your fleet, with a 60 mile blast radius. We are waiting for you to post the damage it did. In case you did not know, an EMP of that magnitude will overload basically every electric circuit in everyone of your ships.

I have not started bombing yet, but I have an air force that will come in probably half an hour after your fleet is immobilized, and bomb the crap out of them... in short, knock 'em out, shoot 'em while they're down.

EDIT: Oh, and a Megafortress is my RB-225 bomber... play on the B-52 Stratofortress

Ultimatum to The Atheists Rally and Aerion:

Right now, Raysia and Belem are in an advantageous position. We have the power to sieze control of your nations, and you will have no chance to resist. This is your last chance to discuss the matter diplomatically.

Your choice: Surrender now and be met with peace, or carry on with your actions and prepare to be overthrown by the christians you hate so much.

Seems like an easy choice to me... but everyone knows I do't think like you.

Atheists Reality I doubt you have tunnels allready in place in Aerion and it was a pathetic attempt at a bluff.

You are in no position to make demands, your threat of nuclear attack is laughable at best considering a Belem nuclear strike would hit you in approx 5 minutes if you so much as opened those silos and Belem has the capability to turn the entirety of your nation into a fine dust in those first 5 five minutes using less then a percent of our total nuclear arsenal.

raysia i ask you this, is every male, female and youngling in your country prepared to die for the cause?Raysia was founded as a safe haven for all those who are persecuted for their beliefs in other nations, and militarily stands as a force capable of protecting them, and fighting for others. So, to answer your question, yes. They are willing to die for this cause. But they will not.

Here's a question. Why do you deny men, women, and children, LIFE, because your government is afraid of harmless christians? And why do you take so much pleasure in killing them that you leave us only one solution? If you do not end this now, you will join those who have been crucified, scuttled, burned, and shot, by the hands of you and your friends.

We can end this without death

Your Highness would be accommodated at the Emperor's court, presently located in the Julian Palace in New Jerusalem, although normally located in the Imperial Court of Christ Pantocrator in New Rome. No expense would be spared in providing Your Highness with comfort during your difficult exile. Your Highness would be free to come and go as desired, and could leave at anytime.

It is His Majesty's desire to be of whatever assistance he can in this troubled time, and he would like to start by providing Your Highness with refuge until he has sought the counsel of his ministers about possible further action. He begs you to consider his offer.

Yours sincerely,

To the High Prelate of the unlawful Fascist State of Aerion,

Sir,

On behalf of the Imperial Government of the Holy Empire of Pantocratoria, I hearby urge you in the strongest possible terms to accept whatever terms the righteous Raysian-Belemese alliance offers before your obstinate and deplorable actions bring about not only the destruction of your own government, but of your people, who are innocent in this matter.

At this point in time, His Most Catholic and Imperial Majesty, the Emperor Andreus, is considering involving the Pantocratorian Imperial Navy in this conflict to support the operations of the Raysian-Belemese alliance as a sign of solidarity with our Catholic bretheren whom you have so brutally oppressed. When one considers that a nuclear attack by the Holy Empire of Belem seems likely, and when one considers the significant assets both Belem and Raysia have committed to the conflict, it should be apparent to even the simplest dullard that your defeat is inevitable. We urge you to take responsibility for your actions, and spare your people as much as possible the horror of war.

If you do not come to terms with the alliance, the Imperial Government will support the efforts of the Raysian-Belemese alliance in whatever way it can.

Yours sincerely,

Sir Jacques Antoniou, Knight of the Order of the Pantocrator

Sir,

I am under instruction by His Most Catholic and Imperial Majesty the Emperor Andreus to advise you that in the event that the unlawful Fascist State of Aerion does not comply with the terms you and your allies have put forward, the assets of the Pantocratorian Imperial Navy will be put at your disposal for the purposes of establishing and protecting logistical support for your military operations.

His Majesty also instructs me to advise Your Excellency that the level of assistance the Imperial Government is prepared to commit to your operations may increase, depending on how the situation evolves. The United Order of Raysia, and you personally, have the thanks of the Imperial Government. In standing up for the oppressed and brutalised Catholics of Aerion, you have demonstrated courage and strength of conviction, and have earned the admiration and thanks of each and every Pantocratorian citizen.

Please direct any communication regarding the Pantocratorian Imperial Navy and its support of your operations to First Admiral Lord Phocas, of the Imperial High Command, Naval Operations.

To: Government, Fascist State of Aerion,

Under the Emergency Powers Act (2000),the Government of the Community of Mafikeng has been empowered by Parliament to take any measures necessary for national security during a percieved crisis.

Accordingly,the Community of Mafikeng wishes to notify all coalition powers that all military airstrips and naval bases are hereby open to allied military personnel and vehicles. Furthermore,under the Aerion Trade Suspension Bill (2004),all trade to and from the Fascist State of Aerion has been forbidden to all licensed trading companies operating off Mafikeng soil.

While we always wish for a peaceful outcome to all international disputes, the Community believes that certain acts are contrary to basic international law as set down by the Charter of the United Nations and need to be acted upon by the internaitonal community as whole. We regard genocide as the worst excess a government can inflict upon its citizens.

We once again condemn these outrageous acts undertaken by the Government of the Fascist State of Aerion and pledge whatever resources we can to the effort to bring this sad chapter in Aerion history to a close.

The Government of the Community of Mafikeng.

The EMP has knocked out the Aerion fleet completely, as the ships of the fleet went dark in the midde of the night. Alarms sounded just before the event, and then the seas went silent as the fleet blacked out. On the coast, alarms sounded throughout coastal towns, as citizens fled from the coastal cities, traffic backing up as hundreds of thousands of people fled the coastal cities, including the megapolis of 10 million on the coast, named Woreun, consisting of several cities intertwined into one. Reports were that several districts of the city are now under anarchy, with riots, many appearing to be communist incited as the area is known for its communist support. Aerion Army Forces, numbering approximately 500,000 seem to be forming a full entrenched battle line within the southwest. The military is reportedly sabotaging its own people, by destroying electricity, water, and other infrastructure in the southwest so it cannot be used by the invading armies.

Field Marshal Tweu Neu has declared martial law throughout the nation from the Aerion Armed Forces HQ north of the capital of Astevane. The nation is slowly descending into chaos though, with the Ministry of Public Security police departments not able to handle the widespread panic, and the military refusing to combat the chaos unless it affects them or their facilities. In fact, the Aerion Army has become a terror squad, with bands of soldiers roaming the streets shooting, raping, and pillaging their own people at will. Bodies are piling up in the streets as people are senselessly slaughtered. The Field Marshal has supposedly only passed the following orders "Stick with the official chain of command, or be shot. Otherwise, you may do what you want to those who are not under the protection list such as family members of Army officers." Some officers of the military have reportedly been stealing cultural relics from the museums of the nation, and other valuable items.

Otherwise, in the Aerion capital:
The Central Palace, previously the Royal Palace as home once to the Royal Family of Aerion, and then the Imperial Palace to the Divine Emperor before the twenty member Prelacy resided in it has been abandoned. It is rumored that the numerous hidden tunnels under the Aerion capital of Astevane has allowed the Prelates to escape the palace, splitting up to flee. The High Prelate was found dead in his chambers, previously the Royal Apartments, a traditional knife in his back. No note was left, his body was left alone, his white uniform covered in blood. The other 19 Prelates have all gone into hiding, presumably many fleeing to the northern provinces where there are extreme mountainous regions. Many New Aerion Order party leaders below the Prelates have also fled, including almost all 300 members of the Synod of the New Aerion Order. Reportedly, facilities containing New Aerion Order party computer databanks that identify the members of the the Synod, the 3,000 member National Council, and many of the provincial council members are blowing up or being deliberately destroyed. The massive mansions of the party leaders have been abandoned, as no one wants to be near them when the invading forces come. The Council of Ministers that actually run the government of Aerion has reportedly disbanded, and many Ministers have been found dead along with their deputies. It is assumed that the Chief Minister, the Minister of Defence, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the Minister of State Security have fled if they are still alive. The Director of the Religious Regulatory Agency, responsible for much of this along with State Security, is gone. The Religious Regulatory Agency Headquarters in Astevane is all but empty, including the databanks containing the religious identities of almost every citizen in Aerion.

Raysian Expeditionary Force initiating Operation: Conquer and Command

Immediately after the EMP detonates, a good deal of the air group crosses into Aerion territory. 2 UCAV carriers deploy their wings of bomber drones that escort a group of 12 RB-225 Bombers.

The RB-225 Megafortress bombers make a pass over the fleet, dropping several hundred tons of bombs all over the place, shattering the paralyzed boats to pieces, and sinking most of them. Shortly after the bombing run is completed, the UCAV bombers come in low and bomb the everloving crap out of whatever is still afloat.

One transport aircraft moves in fast and low just above the water, escorted by a group of 12 RF-11 fighters. When it approaches the coastal megapolis, it opens several bays on its ventral side. Several hundred cypher drones, armed with P90 machine guns, drop down into the city, and begin acting as a temporary police force, shooting troublemakers on the spot and taking strategic positions to gain control of the dangerous chunks of the city through intimidation.

Meanwhile, 4 more Expeditionary force groups meet up with the ones already massing just outside of aerion's coastal border, mainly containing troops and Cypher drones, as well as more UCAVs.

More transports enter Aerion, all heavily escorted by unmanned and manned attacker planes that bomb any resistance, drop cypher drones all over the major cities, especially into the capitol, with the following mission objectives:
-Kill any resistance
-Kill any known aerion government leaders
-Subdue any public troublemakers

Bombers remain in international waters, or landed in nearby friendly nations, waiting to bomb the capitol buildings in case the cyphers fail their objectives.

1. With the Holy See vacant there isn't anyone "in charge" at the moment so we'd have to limit our involvement to press statements from the Camerlengo and worried behind-the-scenes diplomacy from individual Cardinals via Catholic nations--and even that would have to stop when the Conclave goes into session in a day or two; and

2. We had to deal with a minor disaster this weekend that kept us literally away from the computer all weekend--and we're still picking up pieces, so our RP time is a bit limited :cry:

If you would all like to enter this handy-dandy Acme Portable Time Warp:

{o@o}

we would happily regard this as a "still-brewing" (albeit SLOWLY--the Conclave will probably take a week or two and the Cardinals are literally incommunicado while it's going on) situation and a lovely tangle for the new Pope to unravel.

We suggest, Aerion, that rather than going from (more or less) zero to ninety in one post flat, you start out with:
Some background posts about the Prelacy discussing (in private) just WHY the elimination of religion/clergy is needed,
Some discussions among your government about possible diplomatic and military repercussions and how you might prepare to meet them (and, incidentally, you could include some info. on the geography, recent political history, and military status of your country to allow other nations to prepare for their responses; and
Some preliminary posts about more and more repressive measures being implemented, etc. Even Hitler didn't go from "I don't like Jews" to "Total Extermination" overnight. Perhaps Catholics all get kicked out of their jobs? Assets confiscated? The diplomatic missions of Catholic countries booted from your nation? Be creative, here.

You complain about poor RP, but good RP includes setting up situations thoroughly, working up events to logical conclusions, etc. We think you'd get much richer and more interesting responses from some of the excellent RP'ers playing Catholic nations if you took the time to make this a serious thread.

Just trying to be helpful...

TO: The headquarters of the brave soldiers entrenched on the coast while their government flees
FROM: Pantocratorian Imperial High Command, New Rome

Men of Aerion,

You have bravely stayed in your defences while your High Prelate has taken the cowards way out and committed suicide, and the other leaders of your nation have fled. Most of your military commanders have surrendered themselves and their formations. You are the last hold-out still loyal to the former Aerion regime, which butchered millions of your fellow countrymen, and which now asks you die fruitlessly so that your sacrifice may buy the cowards who put you in such dire peril time to flee.

You are under constant bombardment from Belemese vessels, and over your heads your airforce is fighting a losing battle against the forces of the United Order of Raysia. You have a choice - you can surrender now, live out your lives as freemen with your families in an Aerion which you can be proud to call home, or you can stand, and in a matter of days be utterly destroyed, martyrs for tyrannical mass-murderers who were too afraid to stand and die with you in defence of their actions.

The alliance which stands opposite you doesn't want to fight against you. It fights for you, and all Aerions, regardless of creed. Fight with us! Lay down your arms, and build a new home for yourselves and for your countrymen!

As the landing armada approaches 15 miles the battleships swith from firing chaff to firing incidiary rounds against enemy hardened positions 30 miles away.

The amphibious assault craft leave the docking bays of the Troops Transports headed towards the Aerion coast, 2 divisions are part of the first wave to be taken on the beaches.

Meanwhile the fleet launches 60 F-40 Vampires and 60 F-42 Tiger Sharks to provide air cover for the invasion force.

On the shore, a few miles south of the megapolis, Raysia basically sets up camp. 12,000 troops set up their equipment and ready their vehicles.

Over 100 NVTOL attackers sit on the sand, and several larger NVTOL transports land and deploy their payloads of Monster tanks, and Ground Control Behemoths, with siege weapons firmly affixed to their turrets.

Carrier Zeppelins stay about 50 miles offshore, hovering low to the water, deploying and refueling the constant cloud of planes flying over Aerion.

Transport Zeppelins have now made their way back to Raysia and are returning with 3 more mk III sky cleaner emplacements.

In a command Behemoth at base camp, Colonel Allen checks off divisions as they report a "go" status.

On a quick break from work, the colonel kneels down in prayer, hoping that they won't have to go full-scale on their invasion, and that the wicked leaders of Aerion might turn themselves in and save their people from suffering.

Allen gets up from his knees and climbs a ladder leading to the top of the massive command tank. Standing on the roof, he looks out at the thousands of troops and vehicles, hustling and bustling around the beach while tanks fight off anyone who tries to enter base camp. He watches as the Sky Cleaner cannons fire their rounds into the clouds, detonating massive explosions in the sky, seemingly ripping the clouds apart with their loud shockwaves, and clearing the sky of any Aerion Forces.

While the skies are safe, ranger forces set out to sieze enemy air bases and international airports by force.

Aerion is basically in chaos, though somewhat toned down by Raysia's cyphers who are enforcing their robotic ordinance in the city. Bands of citizens seem to be living as best as they can in the safest locations possible within cities, but outside of cities large "refugee" camps exist where people left the cities out of fear. Some of the cities still have sections burning after the riots, adn chaos. The economy has stopped, buildings have been abandoned, and a lot of the infrastructure is down. The only organized thing seems to be the Aerion Armed Forces, though many thousands have pulled back to bases around the capital city of Astevane, and the mountain caves of the north. The current rumored Aerion Armed Forces HQ is now in the northern mountains, in a mountain bunker.


IMPORTANT TRANSMISSION to NATIONS INVOLVED:
The following transmission is sent by Field Marshal Tweu Eir Neu:

"I, Field Marshal Tweu Eir Neu, am the surpreme commander of the Aerion Armed Forces. As the New Aerion Order party government of Aerion has collapsed, and there is no civilian government I declare that I will for a temporary time be acting Head of State in representing Aerion interests. The Aerion Armed Forces is the only organized national body currently capable of managing the nation. Most of all the Generals are loyal to me, other than a few southwestern Generals who seem to have secret ties to the Communist Party. With all of this stated, I deem that I have the authority to make the following declaration:

On this day, I, Field Marshal Tweu Eir Neu, declare an end to hostilities with all nations involved in this conflict, and surrender upon the following conditions:
1) Aerion will remain sovereign from any outer influence
2) Military forces other than Aerion's will only be here for peacekeeping purposes, and once a civilian government is established will leave
3)The officers of the Aerion Armed Forces will not be tried by international courts, as the majority of officers were not involved in the persecution of Catholics. Those whom were will be court martialed accordingly, and international observers may be present.
4) The Aerion Armed Forces Chain of Command will remain as is, with some modifications according to officers tried for war crimes. I, as Field Marshal, will remain supreme commander of the armed forces until a civilian government is established

If these conditions may not be met, then I will not order the surrender, and thousands of lives will be lost. Let us save lives, and end this now. I would like to make the nations participating aware that we have the Royal Family of Aerion held at their northern estate, though they had no official powers during the Prelacy, only titular ceremonial. We do not feel the current King has a claim to be Head of State or participate in governing at all.
27-03-2004, 10:14
Raysia agrees to the terms. We only have one condition remaining, and that is that you will turn over any of the former heads of state responsible for the christian persecutions when and as you find them.

Other than that, I am glad that we have reached peace so quickly. You've made a very wise decision.

http://www.bateshome.com/jordan/nmh.gif

Raysias main forces immediately cease fire and begin to pack up.

The bulk of troops leave within the week, and all that remains is a small airborne peacekeeping force, containing:

1 RT-3007 Defender (Command ship)
1 RT-3507 Thundercloud (Battleship)
2 RT-3307 Sky Bases (Carriers)
12 RF-37 Q-Types
12 RF-11D Archangels
30 Su-37 E-Types
12 RT-1807 Chariots
50 Mini-Cyphers (Programmed to search out the missing leaders)
500 Peacekeeping Ground troops.

Transmission from Field Marshal Tweu Eir Neu:

I had wished to make you aware of what discoveries the Office of the Inspector General of the Aerion Army has made about the previous regime. As a military man, this is beyond my own knowledge. Therefore, I will allow the Inspector General to explain the situation.

Transmissin from LTG Derewi Ieu, Inspector General of the Aerion Army:

"I have made the discovery that the High Prelate, along with possibly seven other Prelates were part of a Satanic "mystery school", or "secret society" as you may term it though it is a mixture of both. It appears to have its roots in the demonic Cult of Gethenes, which during the time when Aerion was under a traditional Republic government with a Consul, Praetor, and Senate had most of the nation’s politicians in it, even, which may be of interest to you the Aerion Archbishop Igolas who at the time was termed the “High Summoner” of the cult. From what records we have, the cult went underground after the military managed the country after a period of chaos much like what recently occurred. Though the brief period of the Principality under Prince Erne, with no ties I must note to the current Royal House of Wasterin, appears to have also been influenced by the Cult of Gethenes or some demonological society with its center at an ancient, now ruined castle in northern Aerion. The Veiled Council of Thirteen may be behind, or a result of, the Cult of Gethenes. The Veiled Council has vaguely come up before, as the Divine Emperor was rumored to be a part of it, as well as past royalty. The High Prelate also claimed to be a member of the Veiled Council. From what we can estimate, the Veiled Council of Thirteen is in all practicality invisible. It may have thirteen members, it may be a much larger organization, but their claim to have influenced Aerion politics through many past regimes may indeed be valid. It appears the original intention in the Satanic mystery school was that the Divine Emperor was supposed to be the Anti-Christ, and supposedly the Veiled Council of Thirteen’s attempt to bring about the Anti-Christ. However, it would seem to us the Veiled Council of Thirteen may have only used this religious front to gain political power. When the Divine Emperor disappeared, however, the Prelacy took control of the government, and the Imperial Cult which promoted worship of the Divine Emperor was taken out of commission by the Prelacy. We do not know if the Veiled Council of Thirteen still exists, if they are a large or small organization, or for that matter if they even do exist or ever did exist. It is a very confusing matter, but rest assured the Aerion Armed Forces is free from their influence....rest assured...yes....

OOC Note: All these governments were in fact roleplayed out for lengthy periods, maybe even as long ago as a RL year ago. Not just making it up. Even the Cult of Gethenes was.
27-03-2004, 10:39
Very interesting findings indeed, and disturbing as well. If you will allow it, we would like to send a team to help investigate this secret society/cult even further. in hopes that we might be able to find their motives, their origins, and possibly where the members are now.
Aerion
27-03-2004, 10:45
Transmission from Field Marshal Twei Eir Neu:

"The Office of the Inspector General (OTIG) has the situation under control. The OTIG has been given further resources to do a focused investigation of the cult, we do not need foreign investigators possibly spying on our operations, we prefer to keep certain areas secure such as the northern mountains. The ancient castle is almost the only tangible evidence we have of them, and fragments of records of earlier investigations from judicial archives which it seems conveniantly disappeared during the Prelacy. The ancient castle is wrought with esoteric symbol, the OTIG informs me, however no one here knows what it means. There are a few readily recognizable symbols, we are keeping in our records. However, the OTIG's investigation into this matter has recently been labeled Classified."

To: Field Marshal Tweu Eir Neu

Sir,

The Imperial Government congratulates you on taking the brave step to the negotiating table in order to save lives. His Most Catholic and Imperial Majesty the Emperor Andreus advises me that your terms are, for the most part, reasonable, and that he is reasonably happy that Raysia has accepted them.

His Majesty does, however, feel that His Majesty the King of Aerion should have a more significant role in the responsible government of your nation. It is certain that your king is capable of a much more significant contribution than he will be able to contribute marginalised out of all participation in the governance of his realm.

Given the recent change in government, embracing the King of Aerion as the head of state, even if with only limited practical authority, may lend some credibility to the future government, which some supporters of the previous regime may view as illegitimate.

In any case, the Imperial Government is happy with your terms as they stand. If the Empire can be of further assistance to the establishment of responsible government in Aerion, please contact us through the usual diplomatic channels.

Sincerely,

Sir Jacques Antoniou, Knight of the Order of the Pantocrator

Field Marshal Tweu Eir Neu has already formed the Junta, himeslf as Chairman, the governing body of Aerion composed of various Generals which he has not stated if it is permanent or only temporary. It appears he may be attempting to create a stratocracy.

Transmission:

The King is a weakling Buddhist who does not have the stature to run the country. We are thinking about possibly expelling the Royal Family soon. The people have respected the Royal Family, but the Royal Family has no claim to rulership other than by blood, and no doubt that blood has been dilluted. We can do a much better job than some artistocratic civilians.

What is going on in the North with the Field Marshal's Government

The Field Marshal, and the Junta have moved into the Central Palace of Aerion. This is a very symbolic act, as the Central Palace has been the seat of government for many regimes in Aerion, mostly all of the past regimes. It is even built around the Curia, the old Senate house that housed the Senate during the time of that government in Aerion. It could be said to be the seat of power of Aerion, and the Junta moving into it as their official headquarters is a very symbolic gesture that they intend to be the center of power of Aerion.
