Earlier today, an invasion force from the nearby lands of The Community Philanthropic Mice struck deep into the heartland of the Holy Empire of Bubbasa the Great. This was acccomplished by an incredibly cunning betrayal by the Grand Vizier of The Empire. This man was trusted implicitly by the Emperor, but abused this trust in a scheme to seize power. His armies defeated by the surprise attack, or co-opted by the Vizier, the Emperor retreated into hiding. He is safe now with but a few retainers, but has an extremely thorny problem awaiting his judgement. Should he attempt a counter-coup?
