Ybronneb

Lady Larissa Do'Le'Croxxe, Queen of Ybronneb, stepped up to a podium, flanked by several female honor gaurds.
"People of Ybronneb and surrounding nations. I have recently completed reviewing the mission reports of the famed Wraith Unit, an almost entirely male unit created by the fool Edwin Calamar when he took our beautiful country and destroyed it. I have decided that it is time to disband Wraith Unit, in favor of some other, better group of Special Forces."
Do'Le'Croxxe gestures to an aide off to the side, and a long line of all 400 male Wraiths is paraded toward the podium. They are escorted by nearly 200 Shield Maidens, the new elite gaurds of Ybronneb.
"Today, these operatives lives will end, and new lives will begin for others!"
Mixed applause and booing emits from the crowd gathered. A pair of Wraiths attempt to turn on one of the Shield Maidens, but are promptly shot down by other Shield Maidens. Suddenly, nearly all 400 of the Wraiths present turn on the Shield Maidens. Several Maidens fall, and their rifles are torn out of their hands, immediately turned on them and others. The Wraiths swarm the Shield Maidens, shooting down many.
After about 3 minutes of this slaughter, the 100 female members of Wraith Unit are sent out from behind the queen, and many people in the crowd seem to believe that they are going to kill the queen. Suddenly, Do'Le'Croxxe gestures to the former Wraiths behind her, who raise their rifles and fire past her, into the ranks of the rebelling Wraiths. Within an hour, 350 of the male Wraiths are dead, and the other 50 are in the process of being executed. The 100 females behind the queen, of which only minor injuries were suffered, casually hold their rifles. In unison, they go to their knees, bowing to the queen.
"Behold those whose lives have been made new! Behold Harpy Unit!"
Applause radiates from the gathered crowd. Do'Le'Croxxe gestures again and the new Harpy Unit recedes into the palace, where they proceed to a helipad and are transported to a far off base. Do'Le'Croxxe, honor gaurd in tow, follows them into the palace, and retires to her chambers. The Shield Maidens execute the rest of the Wraiths, and promptly begin ushering the crowd away, as cleanup crews come through to take away the hundreds of bodies for mass-cremation.
