Antonius walked out onto the balcony in his high chamber in the Imperial palace. It was early spring, and the air was still cool. Trails of smoke rose up over certain areas of the city, reminders of the vicious battle that had raged over a month ago in the streets of the city, and even in the very rooms of the palace. With the death of the usurper, the majority of his legions and supporters had surrendered to the true emperor. Most had been given full pardon by Antonius, however several of the late Alexei’s most trusted confidants had been put to the sword. They had been too dangerous to keep around. There was always the possibility of another coup.

With the return of the true Emperor, the chaos of Alexei’s reign was slowly being reversed. The slum crusades were winding down with the aid of the GIIS. Many of the fundamentalist leaders had already been rounded up and executed. However, there was still a distinct movement, and it seemed that the failure of the holy revolution had managed to consolidate the fundamentalist fanatics’ organization.

The few cells that represented the movement had moved their areas of operation to smaller cities in the southern Empire. They now called themselves the Generian Orthodox Army (GOMA). A distinct head of the movement had not yet been identified, but for now the fundamentalists seemed to at least be somewhat inactive.

The Ukraine and the new territories had posed a new problem entirely. What was Antonius to do with the subjugated lands? The people were broken, tormented, enslaved, weary of war and abuse. Antonius had begun by freeing a majority of the enslaved, and restoring certain rights to them. The Imperial government was currently working on fully incorporating the new territories as Imperial provinces, a task that would take several months.

Still, there was resistance among the populace of Generian Ukraine. Terrorist activities were on the rise. Just the other week, three Imperial provincial government buildings had been bombed, leaving two dozen Imperial citizens dead. This was certainly a threat to the infrastructure of the new lands, but one that hopefully could be contained.

As Antonius pondered the state of the Empire, he was joined by his mistress, Lady Alexa. She came up silently behind him, as she was apt to do, and put her hands on his shoulders. He turned and embraced his woman. Whatever the state of affairs, it was good to be back home, back in the heart of his great Empire.

The Buchianan conflict had finally drawn to a close with the surrender of the rogue government in New Bucharest. The Imperial armies were now beginning a complete occupation of the rebel province, to defend against any who disagreed with the leadership's decision to give heed to Imperial will.

It was deemed that new taxes would be placed on the province to help pay for the destruction her armies had caused to the Empire. Of course, dissent was natural, but if it turned violent, the Empire would be more than willing to put an end to it.

((OOC: You can make a post in the old thread where you hit the capital. I left room for everyone to add their contributions. I just wanted to wrap things up so I could get on to my other ideas.))

At the Mauiwoweean Airbase in Generia

Over 5,000 men were gathered on the Runway for the ceremony. The speakers played the national anthems of Mauiwowee, The Borman Empire and Generia in that order. As they finished, the base commander, Bharis Kharloff, approached the assembled guests of honor, Soldiers from the Borman Empire.

"On behalf of the people of Mauiwowee, myself, King 'Lude II, General Jack T. Ripper and our soldiers who fought to regain control of Generia from the usurper, I want to thank you men for your service. Col. Klive." With that, Col. Klive, the General's XO approached with a box. Walking down the line of 158 Borman soldiers, General Kharloff pinned one after the other with the Mauiwoweean Silver Diamond, 37 of which bore crossed hemp leaves in recognition of extra-ordinary bravery in combat. After the last man was pinned with his medal, the General and the entire assembly stood at attention while taps was played for the men who had given their lives so that the ceremony could take place. After taps was over, the General spoke again.

"Men, we have won a great victory, a victory in no small part due to your assistance. Again, we thank and congratulate you. Now, for the rest of the day, the Officer's club has been instructed to open to all soldiers and the beer is on us." With that, there was a huge shouting of "hurrahs" and the men dispersed.

OOC: Sorry Borman, wasn't trying to leave you out of the earlier ceremony on the Shroom I just posted it before you posted that your guys were really on our side and pulled a fast one on the usurper.

Dear Emporer Antonious:

We are greatly pleased to see that you have successfully regained your rightful position at the head of the Generic Empire's government. In order to assist in the rebuilding of your country, we have dispatched some $500 million in food, medical supplies and similar humanitarian aid items to our airbase for your use in careing for and supplying your civilian population during this time of rebuilding. We have withdrawn our naval forces from the area and recalled our base commander, Gen. Kharloff, to Mauiwowee (there are some questionable things he did during the conflict and a board of inquiry has been set up in Mauiwowee to investigate). Col. Klive, his former XO, has been elevated to the rank of General and placed in command of the base and directed to coordinate with your government on the distribution of the aid packages. If we can be of further service, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,
His Royal Highness,
King 'Lude Valeeum Narcosis,
Mauiwowee
