The Emperor sat watching the TV screen as Aust announced its resignation from the RWC:

"And so the domino tips,"he muttered to himself before barking,"Minister! Proceed!"

Down the corridor a tall, beared man dressed smartly in a suit and overcoat carried a set of notes out to waiting crowd of journalists:

Errhemm!

Minister Cesar coughed before beginning slowly:

"Today the Empire must announce its resignation from the Right Wing Collective due to conflicting interests. We have our immediate alliegance to GDODAD and many long term respected allies who are in conflict with the RWC."

He paused momentarily.

"We saw this alliance as a conduit for expansion and further resonance of the Imperial way. An alliance that would be active and expansive from the right wing spectrum. However, it has proved not so. Consequently, we must withdraw from this alliance and continue with our existing alliance."

"GDODAD has always been a part of our foreign policy and always will be. We intend to maintain this bond within the alliance and see this as the only way."

"Thank you."

The journalists all suddenly erupted with an array of flash photography and questions but alas they found themselves speaking to fabric as Minister Cesar turned around and re-entered the Imperial Parliament.

Official Communique To Drum Gods, and All Others Whom It May Concern

Friends, we have judged you too hastily, and for this we most sincerely apologize. In these times of deceit and treachory, it is indeed difficult to know one's allies from one's enemies. We had been convinced that you had some underhanded motives, and that these would work to hinder our mutual alliance, GDODAD. Today, you have made all clear to us once again. I feel as if a great weight has been lifted from my heart, as it did pain me to suspect such an esteemed ally of treason. I offer you and yours the renewed friendship of the Greifan Empire and her subjects, and do ask that we put this misunderstanding quickly behind us. Let us go forth together, as friends and allies, and work diligently for the power and glory of our great and ancient organization. War looms, and many Greifans will die. But we will be honored to fight and die alongside our brethern from Drum Gods. Heil!

Yours in arms,

We accept your offer of friendship for only through unity will the GDODAD move forward and move forward we must.

We hope that the Drum Gods bears no hostile intentions towards us or our shared holdings. While we fully know the true nature of your Empire we wish peace in our colonies and we hope you wish the same.

Alfarius Damocales,
Imperial Councillor,
Minister of Defence.

Minister Cesar, and Emperor of Drum Gods, I am pleased to hear this. It warms my heart that you have made this wise choice. I apologise for what may have seemed harsh words previously, and must join the Empress Natalya in apologising for having suspected a trusted ally. I am truly proud to still be able to call you one.

The Great Ineffable Bob.
