Earlier today, General Stowes was checked into the Panrabian General Hospital after experiencing breathing problems, chest pains, and coughing up blood. General Stowes probably has lung cancer, doctors say, because of his five years of smoking when he was 20-25, exposure to a lot of hazardous materials he oughn't have been breathing in, and lots of exposure to just about everything. General Alexander Muhammad Stowes is 70 years old.

In the meantime, his second, General Zheng Ao-Li, is overseeing all functions by the Pananabian military, including the construction of permenant military buildings. General Stowes and General Ao-Li plan to turn the old Panrabian ruins into a military base, but preserve the ruins themselves. General Stowes had discovered them and used them as his base of operations for over fifteen years during the Pudite occupation. Plans to construct naval yards for civilian and military use have been on teh drawing boards for several years.

General Stowes' condition has been approved as fatal. General Stowes has less than two months to live. A tomb is being constructed for him in the Old Panrabian ruins for a Panabian funeral. Stowes is writing his will and is beginning to make speeches to the Panabian people. All of his men are sad to recieve the news of his inevitable death, as Stowes was charismatic, a genius, sympathetic, and definitely a leader that the Pananabian people could look up to.

Pananab is thanful for the Conservative Army's condolances. General Stowes is a great man and his legacy will ring throughout the ages for years to come. He has led thousands of men into battle for greater goods and, sadly enough, many evils, but even the almighty Allah is capable of evil deeds.

The Emperor had recived a report from his negotiator in the recent Pananabian metting, Mr. Grey, that General Stowes had been having health troubles and had to leave the room. The report had suggested that it was a lung sickness, and so the recent death did not surprise him much.

The Emperor had hated Stowes more than, well, many things, but he had to honour the man. He had held back his best troops for months with only his mercenary rabble, he had taken back ground captured by his finest generals. He was an exelent commander, and anyone that had served in the recent war knew that.

In a previously unheard of move, sixty-four seconds of silence were ordered the day they head of his passing. This has never been called for before, and all work across the nation halted, everyone stood where they were, and it was silent. Nothing moved across the nation, nothing at all.

Although sisty-four seconds later everything roard back into the smooth, methodical hive-like motion of the Pudite workplace, and the General was forgotton by the people of the nation, those that commanded against him would forever remember him. As would the record-keepers below the Imperial Palace. He was remembered as the man who had decreaced production output in the Dominion by 1.4% not by anything he did in life, but by what happened to him at the end of it.

No message was sent to the Pananbian Government.

((Ahahahaha! That makes me happy!))
Stowes reminds the world that he isn't quite dead yet and informs the people of Pananabian that he will refuse to pass away until the elections in Pananab are complete. He is also spending his last days having his biography written and telling his story to young recruits in the military.

General Stowes passed away at 8:50 am this morning after viewing the election reults. About 34% of the population showed up to vote, making General Stowes very, very happy as he passed away. All of his possesions are being to sent to relatives in Afghanistan and his money is being split between them, with half of it going directly into the Pananab treasury. His last words were,
"A life can be finished, but never completed."
Which has been adopted as the national motto.
