Hello, I'm Kathren Movan, of the Colerica Imperial News network. We come to you now under the gravest of situations; the Colerican state of Kally has seceded from the United Empire! An astonishing number of the state's citizens have made their feelings known over the last few weeks, by staging large secessionist rallys and processions. Defying the law with these illegal gatherings, the secessionists demanded that Kally's Viceroy, Dem Chema, talk amongst his co-leaders about a secession from the United Empire. Last night, it is reported, Viceroy Chema and his cohorts agreed on a secession from the United Empire. They announced their intentions just moments ago. People have been storming the streets of Kally cities shouting, "Liberty. Freedom. Enfranchisment," a phrase that seems to be their rallying cry.
We here at CIN know that this is an open act of treason. A once respectable man, Dem Chema, is now a criminal and a tratior to the United Empire of Colerica. Something must be done and done quickly to counter these criminal actions.
We now bring you a just-released brief statement by the Imperial Palace. It reads, quote, "The people of Kally have made a grievous mistake. A mistake for which they will be punished. There will be no secession from the United Empire."
The Emperor has, rumoredly, suspended habeus corpus throughout the entire state of Kally. He has relieved that tratior, Dem Chema, from his job as Viceroy along with all of Chema's staff. It is rumored that the Emperor will grant pardon to anyone who commits a crime against a Kally citizen. The state of Kally no longer has any functioning government. Emperor Thra has declared a complete state of martial law throughout all of Kally.
Reports are filtering out now that the Kally people had began stockpiling weapons for sometime. Hopefully, the United Empire will send in forces to disarm these radical tratiors.
There are also fears and concerns that the neighboring states of Loros, Tarka, Deviso, and Jaxuum may also secede. There has been a strong secessionist uproar throughout the neighboring states, and we can only guess as to what may happen now that Kally has declared their secession from the United Empire. My only hopes are that this won't erupt into a war and that the secesh tratiors will get punished for their crimes. We will, undoubtedly, continue to cover this story as it happens and we'll bring it to you, live.
