Re-mobilization (Open-RP)

Euroslavia

For defensive purposes, the Shogun of Euroslavia announced yesterday that the newest armies of the military, called the Gigas, will be mobilized. These emotionless soldiers stop at nothing to complete their task at hand, whether it be to defeat the enemy, assassinate a leader, or other things.

In the Palace of the Shogun

"My Lord, the Gigas have finished their training and are ready for combat. But I'm afraid that the training has.....umm.....destroyed their sense of emotion..." spoke the Kinshi of the Silver District.

"What exactly do you mean?" replied the Shogun.

"Well...simply put, they have no emotions. They show no mercy. They look at foreign soldiers as enemies, no matter who it is. We had a little trouble earlier with the Gigas....They umm..." as the Kinshi hesitated to continue.

"They what! Answer me!" yelled the Shogun.

"They slaughtered a foreign family for no reason, as they walked by the military base."

There was a moment of silence.

"Send our apologies to their relatives, but there is nothing we can do. We must keep the Gigas in line though. Broadcast a warning to all foreigners to avoid any sort of military installation for now, until we can figure something out to appease the Gigas." mentioned the Shogun. "Oh, and also, be ready for what may happen soon. Don't give out any sort of information to foreign diplomats yet, except for the fact that our newest military soldiers are fully trained."

"Yes sir." answered the Kinshi.

The military of Euroslavia was almost prepared. They do not plan on striking any nation specifically, they only want to be ready for anything that may happen in the near future. The nation of Euroslavia has taken a course that in the past, they normally would have never done, but right now, it is looking at specific nations to become allies with. Certain nations that the Shogun has an exceeding amount of respect for.


The Shogun is speaking to the leading diplomat of Euroslavia about foreign relations

"Sire, is there something you wanted to speak to me about?" questioned the diplomat.

"Yes. Have you been keeping caught up in international affairs?" asked the Shogun.

"Why of course I have sire."

"Then I assume that you've heard of the terrible news from Pantera, that their leader has died."

"Yes, I've heard."

"I would like you to contact the nation of Pantera and ask them for some sort of diplomatic meeting. I wish to establish relations with their nation. I also wish for you to contact Automagfreek. If we could get a meeting with both of these nations at the same time, it would be.... monumental."

"I will do my best....sire."

Running his tongue across the front of his top row of strong, white teeth, the Evenstar poured over reports of the day. The recent flux of lapdogs and bootlickers that had petitioned him for a meeting was sickening, but a few had worth.

Euroslavia, eh? Dayne thought as he punched a few keys on his keyboard. The machine gave him no end of trouble, but if one could wade through the miels upon miles of bullshit associated with it, it was a valuable tool. He was a warrior. If the computer needed killing, he could have done that, but using it as intended almost escaped him. Sighing, he tried once more to access the file on Euroslavia and finally managed to find what he was seeking.

Shogunate? Am I missing an Emporer somewhere? He punched a few more keys, but could find nothing further on the matter, as most of the file was militaristic in nature.

One thing, though, was disturbing. They had 'bred' a new form of soldier, called Gigas. Foolish name, he thought, but the rest of it was what made the report disturbing. These were emotionless beasts, without remorse. Now, many of his Reavers were without mercy or forgiveness, but they thrived on their fury, their rage. Dreadfire's Sentinels were the same way. You could trust a soldier who was wildly fanatical in his hatred, but not one who was an emotionless husk of a man, whose only purpose was to kill.

Scowling, the Evenstar turned to his telephone and stared at it for a long moment, considering wether or not to seek a meeting with Dreadfire. They would do well to speak on the matter before allowing an audience with this Shogun.

Within the palace of the Shogun, in the new capital, Arcadia.


A few of the scientists walked up towards the Shogun, and began to speak with him. They had brought a few of the Gigas with them. It seems as if the scientists have come up with some sort of remedy.

"Sire, we have some good news about the Gigas."

"Carry on..." said the aggitated Shogun.

"We've created....shall we say...a cure for the Gigas who attacked the foreigners. We've been able to supress their anger, and increase their ability to think, and strategize against the enemy. Their intelligence has definitely taken a boost. We've also been thinking about the training. We need to somehow make it less.... tortorous. You know, if the stories about the camps keep going out, no one is going to want to join our army, and lord knows that no one wants a mandatory draft. That would cause an extreme uproar in the public." stated the scientist.

"You have some decent points..."

At that same time, one of the servants of the Shogun walked up to him. To the Shoguns' suprise, the Gigas didn't attack the foreign servant. It's obvious that the cure was a success.

"You've done a good job men. Now, what is next on the agenda for the Gigas?"

"Well, we're looking to increase their strength, against their enemies. Their muscle mass isn't quite as much as we had hoped for. We are looking to increase this, as well as increase their intelligence even further. This may take some time to complete though. We've been having some problems.....sire."

"Well....keep going on this project of yours. Now I ask you to leave..."

The scientists left smiling, knowing that they had pleased the Shogun, even though he rarely shows it.

The Shogun remained sitting there, thinking....

It's time. I'm only known to my allies, and the rest of the world, as Shogun. The next step is to give out my name...to my allies only....for now that is. Only those that I can trust with my life. Things are going according to plan....according to what was predicted.

He looked over to the far corner of the palace, where a hidden path remained, a path towards the all-knowing seer. The old woman that he met when he was only 15. She revealed his true path to him, and everything has come true since then. At first he didn't believe her. Being appointed as the Shogun of the entire nation? That is extremely hard to believe, especially since he came from a middle class background. But it all came true... from prophecy. It was soon time to see her again. She had news on a few other choice nations for him. One's that he has a particular interest in.

It was time for the Shogun to go see the seer. He knew she had some interesting news for him. He got up steadily, and walked over to the secret passage that only he knew about, within his palace. He took the pathway the lead him to a series of hallways. The Shogun turned left, then right, then left again, until he reached a door at the end of the last hallway. It was starting to grow some sort of moss on the door, but I guess it added to the true age of the palace. He slowly opened the door to find the seer sitting in a chair in the middle of the room, staring at him. She had some strange looking grin on her face…

She must know something important…she rarely uses that….expression.

He walked over to her, and sat down with her.

“One thing you must know, the Reavers of Pantera, and the Sentinels of Automagfreek….they are united. The Gigas of Euroslavia are much like them. You must seek out relations with these two nations. It is your destiny to do so. Be careful though, their leaders must not be underestimated. Damien is among one of the most intelligent leaders of our time, as is Dayne. If only Bastien was still alive, may the spirits help him rest in peace.”

“How am I going to have a chance with these leaders? I’m sure they don’t trust me as it is…”

“You underestimate yourself, my son. You were a great warrior before this, right? Their leaders are warriors themselves. You have that in common. You have a lot to offer, as Shogun of Euroslavia. Who knows…one day, you may become Emperor…”

“Don’t say that,” interrupted the Shogun, “I don’t want to hear that…”

“I only speak the truth. You’ve already led Euroslavia into another golden age…militarily and economically. The people adore you as if you were some sort of god. If you were to declare yourself Emperor, you would have the people’s support. Remember that…”

Emperor? It’s as if my dreams are coming true. I can’t believe it right now…but she is right about something. If I am going to become Emperor, I need the support of Pantera and Automagfreek. Two of the most respected nations that I’ve ever been honored to even hear of…………………

I need to concentrate right now.

He walked back through the corridors to his throne room, and sat down. He needed to formulate some sort of plan to convince these two nations to even give him an audience….
