Madness in the Empire

Tanthan

The Emperor's aide spoke before the Council today, to announce disturbing speech which will forever change Tanthan:

The world is adrift
Lost in a sea of self-importance
Technoglogy sates the masses
Pleasure resonates in everything
Clouding all minds, bending wills

To construct a humane world
One must forget humanity!
Humanity is weak and hypocritical
How can we expect to follow her
When she defies humane practice

Humane ways are not of war
Humane ways are not of peace
Humane is harsh and fair

Our world is corrupted by this
Such matters must be removed
Only I can bring true peace
There will be one battle
One loss, to gain everlasting peace

The government is against you
People have clouded minds
The light is with me, the power is with me
Together Tanthan will reach a new point
Everlasting peace
And no longer shall we be adrift

I am the guide
Meant to lead all of you to the safe coast
A safe harbor in the wide seas
Simple dreams, simple lifes
No longer will complexity reign

A turning of the old ways
Of the old gods and beliefs
Ones and zeros do not rule us
We have been enslaved by our creation
Trapped to work for false hope and dreams

The guiding light will banish these things
I am that guiding light
No more hiding from ourselves
Eternal watching of each other shall end
Only when we are simple is there peace

Let's go hand in hand
Together into our new world
Into the world that shines so bright
Let me lead you into it
Lead Tanthan into the world of joy


The council applauded and everyone is backing Viken now.

(Secretly, after the meeting, a phone call)

Viken: Fools, I will destroy them all, death and destruction solves all problems
???: Yes, we will cease all of their lives and idle thoughts, freeing them from problems.
Viken: How are the new Slave bangles?
???: A complete success, better then we hoped for, their minds will be ours.
Viken: Now to kill that little bitch who enslaved our people, I'll throw her off the tower and claim the throne.
???: Wonderful, together we will be gods and deliver them from their lives
Viken: No one can stop us now!
???: The holy light will pass judgement on them and the chosen will live with us in an ideal world!

OOC: If you know the back story this makes complete sense, but the two are planning to overthrow the government to create a theocracy in which they are gods and place their beliefs on the masses. Both are completely mad and are the result of an accident in genetic mutation. Corrupt and idealistic they are trying to fix the evils of the world as they are Gods sent to rule Tanthan justly, in their own minds.
