The Quetzal Hotel
Princess Turania's suite




Princess Turania walked around nervously, for very soon she was to be crowned as Mexica Union's first Empress, the first woman with real power in the Empire. Turania saw a painting of her father on the far wall of the room, she walked over to it and began to speak to it "Well Dad I guess you never meant for me to ascend the throne, but here I am, ready to do it. I love you and miss you very much" Turania slid to the floor crying, for she have loved her father very much, but had been able to see him for the past four years, mainly due to the fact that Mochtezoma had exiled her for life in Michoalin, but she had escaped from there but had arrived to late to see her father before his sudden death. Getting up and drying her tears Turania walked over her mother's silk green gown, because Mexica had never had a Empress for a main ruler there was no coronation outfit for them, Turania had chosen to her mother's silk green formal affairs gown has her coronation outfit. Smiling in remembrence of mother, Rahasia's strong headedness and attitude Turania dissapered into her changing room to get ready for the coronation.



The Great Temple

The various surviring nobles from all over Mexica Union had just begun to arrive at the Great Temple for the coronation, while many for before the Civil War were dead a few survivors had come to attend. A great many of the nobles atteneding were new to thier job and grumpy at being to New Tenochtitlan but they still came, for if anything, fear of Turania's temper. "So what do you think if the idea if being ruled by a woman?" asked one noble, the Duke of Teotilcaun "I don't like the idea, but regardless of gender she seems competent, maybe this won't be as bad as we thought" said another, the Duke of Xomillactac. "Argeed" said Teotilcaun "but perhaps we could take advantage of her and push our agenda once she picks advisors" "and what makes you think she'll chose you?" replied Xomillactac. "Trust me, she will" and with that the Duke left, leaving a very puzzled Duke of Xomillactac behind. All this coverstation continued well nigh on a hour before the door opened and Turania walked into the room in her mother's dress with General Mezatill being her escort. "I want to thank all of you for comming here, however we should wait untill the others arrive and of course the forgien dignataries" announced Turania. With that she walked down the stairs and into the crowd to get to know the nobles before the coronation, driving her guards buggy in the process.

Grand Temple




Turania walked around the room meeting various noblemen when a rather handsome young man walk over to her, took her hand and kissed it "I am the Duke of Teolitcuan mil' lady, it is a hounor to finally meet you" the man said. Turania smiled "I am happy to meet you as well, I feel it is crucial for me to get to know all of the nobles" the Duke smiled back at Turania "You are right about that, if I may ask is her highness going to have an advisory council?" "Yes I am, do you have any suggestions?" "Yes, not all the noblemen here are to be trusted mil'lady, some might try to take advantage of you. I suggest you name me head advisor and let me do the picking your highness, there should not be any unwanted burden on your pretty head" Turania seemed to think for a few moments before replying "No" then she walked away to talk to more nobles. "Real smooth, is that what you had in mind when said you were going to convince her to appoint you head advisor?" Teolitcaun turned around to see the Duke of Xomillactac giving him a grin a mile wide "shut up" said Teotilcaun to the still grinning Xomillactac

Great Temple





Turania smiled at each of the nobles as she passed, and now after meeting so many of them Turania understood why her father hated nobles so much, she wondered if it was possible to form a people's congress of some sort to advise instead of the nobles. but... Turania thought, wouldn't such a congress relegate her to a position of a figurehead? Turania shook her head throughly after that last thought, after all, what was she thinking to give the peasents that kind of power. Suddenly General Mezcatill leaned next to Turania and wispered into her ear "Your Highness are you alright? If this is distressing you perhaps we should retire from this for now" Turania shook her head again " Perhaps your right, I do need to touch up on my make-up anyway" Mezacatill smiled then raised his voice "The Princess needs to leave the room for a little while to freshen up, she will be back shortly" the nobles grumbled at this but cleared a path to allow Turania to go back to the door she entered the room by.

Rift stood in the hall of the Great Temple, snobbish nobles all around him.
He pulled a small blue box out of the magnetic storage on his belt, carefully opening in and smiling, it was still there and he closed it and put it back. He once more pulled something from his belt, a broche, made of a rare blue metal set in with one of the largest saphires he had ever seen.

A slight hiss came through the open com link in his armour, indicating that someone sought contact with him and Rift heard how Major General Talas had all his troops in place around the capital, nobody would get into this city without him knowing. Palace security was high as the entire 1st Royal division had deployed in and around it together with the apache attack helicopters from the 7th fleet, Rift looked up through the glass roof and saw a wing of Jackrabbit interceptor fighters banking back to the fleet.
He saw Turania retire into a backroom so he walked to the grand entrance to wait for the international guests and he chuckeld, a eight foot warrior clad in marine blue armour would have a nice effect.

OoC: Lord Rift is human, its just that he has some - modifications - to his body.

A black limosine curises down the streets of New Tenochtitlan, silently in the night. It's a nondescript one, the lack of modifications showing it to be a stock model, unremarkable except for the diplomnatic plates on the front and back. It slowly heads up to it's destination, The Great Temple, and stops at the entrance. The driver gets out, and opens the door for the passengers, two men, the first in a blue suit with a green tie flecked with red, the second in a dark grey one, with a blue tie, and mirrored sunglasess.

Rick yawns as he gets out of the vehicle, streching as he reaches the point of this entire trip: The Cornation of a New Empress for this nation. Inwardly, he scoffs. (The Monarchy still exisits in this country, ehh? Well, maybe this new Empress will change things up a bit). The possiblity that this new woman was gonna to shake things up made the State Department nervous enough to send with Rick a Federal Policeman. Perhaps it was to show that Triancia could take care of-

Rick looks up and sees the Jackrabbit's fly over head, the sound attracting him and calling up reflexes he was tuaght long ago during his term with the Army. He chuckles to himself. Well, Triancia seemed to have a lot to learn on showing power, didn't they?

Rick's eyes rove around the Grand Entrance, admiring the worksmanship of the temple's Facade. His eyes stop, and rest, though, on the eight foot military guard standing out front. His escort must look nervous through those sunglasses. Rick himself had played the statemanship game long enough to be an excellent actor, so his face just shows curiousity, rather than a slight amount of fear. He nods to himself, and then starts walking toward the huge soldier. He stops in front of him, and just looks.... /up/

"Good evening."

The Falasturian motorcade pulled into the grounds of the Great Temple having driven straight from the airport, where not half an hour ago, Matthew VI, the Emperor of Falastur, had arrived, with his eldest brother and sister, Crown Prince Stephen and Crown Princess Rebecca. With them travelled a number of aides and guardians, as well as the Minister for Foreign Diplomatic Relations.

Pulling up outside the entrance to the Temple, valets jumped out of the limousines immediately to open the doors for the Falasturian passengers, who then strode on into the Temple to make their presence known.

Rift saw the black limosine open its doors and the people stepping out, blue displays popped on his HUD indicating the personal information of the visitors.
He looked it over as the man in a blue suit aproached him, "Good evening." the man speaks to Rift who has to look down a good bit.
"Good evening to you to, I am Lord Commander Rift from the nation of Dumpsterdam and you are the representative from Triancia, Rick, no lastname enterd into your registering system."
He smiled as the man stood speachless for a few seconds. "You can go inside if you wish to, I am enjoying the fresh air here."

Great Temple






Turania came out of the freshing room feeling refreshed and better about the upcoming coronation, though she was still nervous. With General Mezacatil at her side she re-entered the room. Turania noticed soon new nobles around the area and went to greet them "Hello I don't believe to have seen you before" the most important man in the group nodded "you haven't mil' lady we are the nobles from the former Southern Alliance" "I wasn't aware the Allliance surrenderd" Turania tried to keep a grin out of her face and in mind. "Well it has mil' lady, I am Tacul, the Duke of the Yucatan and these are my fellows" "pleased to meet you" said Turania shaking each of thier hands. Just them she heard gasps of amazement and shouting "The forgein guests have arrived it seems" wispered Mezacatil in her ear. Turania smiled as she moved through the crowd to the glass doors of the Great Temple "Hello I am Turania, soon to be Empress of the Mexica Union" she interduced her self as to the group of forgein dignataries.

Great Temple
Coronation Hall




While Turania greeted the arriving forgien dignataries the priests prepared for the coronation inside the hall were it would take place. As they scurried about the hall doing thier various jobs in preparation, a young man decided to separate from the activites to speak with the Chief Priest, Hutacta. "Great Priest" said the boy "how much more must be done before we can rest? whenever it is I hope it is before the ceramony starts" "It will done when it is done young one" replied the priest "there is little sense in asking when something is done, for it will be done on it's own time" the boy made a face at this, he had hoped for a more comprehensable answer. Laughing at face the boy had made the Chief Priest gently pushed him back towards the work area. "Great Priest" said one of other priests that would assiting him "what to you make of giving Turania all this power, I say we should control the government until Turania marries, then we can have a proper ruler" the old priest shook his head "I understand you may that way brother but Turania won the civil war, besides we need to be shaken up a little and this is just the way to do it." The other priest nodded "I understand Great Priest, I will go back to my duties now" The Chief Priest smiled and walked around the area, saying "All right everyone take a 10 minute break" sighs of reilef could heard throughout the room.

Great Temple






As Turania finished conversing with her International guests she decided to once again go to freshen up, though she wished to go ahead with the coronation she decided to wait till the rest of forgien guests arrived, as she turned to go Turania bumped in to group of well dressed men and woman. "Greetings to you Turania" said the lead man "we have a propostion for you, we have been reading the Communist Manifesto and our interested in the Communist form of government" Turania stared the group she rememebered Truitt at that moment remembering that she had not wanted to adopt their form of goverment because it would strip her of all real authority. Seeing Turania was about to say something, no, by the look on her face the leader of group opened his mouth first "Your majesty we would most certainly not wish to strip you of your power, we just humbly request a people's congress be set up as a step in the positive direction" Turania thought for few moments more after this then said "no" then pushed past them to go to the freshing room, this time with out announcing it.

OOC: Just want to say to the eight foot tall guy, his name would be in the system as 'Richard Verry, an Asst. Dep. Secretary of State of Triancia' :)

OoC: Wel this is wat he can get of your mind actualy, there's no realy system that he has access to wich has your data in it.
Oh and for the love of god, DO NOT PISS HIM OFF.

Here's a big fat BUMP.
