Ricala was watching the morning news when the report about Tranquility Island came on. He was about to click past it to the baseball scores, but he hesitated for a second. He tapped his commpin and seemingly spoke into the air. "Miss Parma, please get all the info available on Tranquility Island and then send General Sisler in here."

"Yes, m'lord."

Ricala...King of the Tribe of Auralinia, Lord Director of the Xeraphian Space League, cousin to Emperor Alaric Tan'it of the Barbaric Empire of Xeraph...wanted to do something about the TI situation. As he stood looking out of the window, General Bob Sisler arrived. "General, please have a seat. I need your opinion on a possible intervention." He told Sisler about the anarchy running rampant on Tranquility Island. "Your'e assessment, General?"

"Two thoughts, Majesty. Number one, I have no doubts that we can go in there and straighten out their problems in a very short period of time if, Number Two, they want us to. You know as well as I do that Alaric would not approve of an Imperial move into a sovreign nation unasked, no matter how bad the situation."

"Hmmm, yes, quite right General. Alright, here's what we're going to do. I'll dash off a message to the Tranquility leadership. In the meantime, you get a task force ready. I think the 163rd CBG and the 16th AirWing will do. Arrange for transport of 1500 Marines. Beach 'em or air-drop 'em, whichever you see fit. But NOT until I give the word, OK?" He thought for a second. "Bring six of the Beowulf MBTs with you, also."

"Anything else, m'lord?"

"No, not right now, General. I'll keep you appraised of events as they happen."

Sisler gave a slight bow, and headed out of the King's office.

"Miss Parma?"

"Yes, m'lord?"

"Send a note to Tranquility Island indicating that I am concerned about their situation and want to help them restore order. Tell them I can land my forces there in 36 hours and probably have the criminals in check within a week."

"Got it, Majesty. Will you be going yourself?"

"Yes, after the troops have been OK'd to land. Tell them I'd like to meet with them personally."

"Yes, m'lord."
