Granate

It was cool Spring Night in the City of Lucianus, Capital of the Republican Monarchy of Granate. The Nightlife of the city was just beginning to come out and set-up shop. It was calm, as if before an unknown storm. It's people where happy not knowing about the Storm. However, General Aristarkh Anatoly knew what the coming storm was, he was apart of it. Tonight was the beginning of said storm, but it would only become well-known after it was near complete. When it was all over, it would shake the very foundation of the country and possibly all of Nova Europa.
He had set up the meeting in a Lucianus Late-Night Coffee Shop on the east side of town. The Coffee was good and it was very private. A good location for a clandestine meeting. Aristarkh had only to wait for other member of the meeting before it would begin. As planned, Aristarkh had arrived 15 minutes ahead of the other man. Soon the other man would walk through the door of the shop and then he would sit down near Aristarkh. It was then that they would begin the meeting.
The wind blew into the shop as the door was opened by a man in large overcoat. Aristarkh didn't even have to look to know it was his partner. The man was tall and walked like a man born of determination. This man had been in the military and walked liked he owned every peice of ground he stepped on. The man made some small talk with the cashier at the entrance. Aristarkh heard some mumbled words from the Man and some laughter from the Cashier. He heard the cash register ding as it was opened. He then noted that the man's footsteps became louder as the man began to come his way. The man made his way to the table next to Aristarkh's and waited patiently for his coffee. It wasn't long in coming, and soon the man began to sip slowly at the coffee. It was then that Aristarkh began to talk.
"So you did come? I was worried for a moment back there" Aristarkh said to the man in a slightly muffled tone as to not carry from them.
"A man in my posistion can't do with making false promises." The man said with a very deep voice. Before Aristarkh could say anything the man began talking again.
"I trust you kept your end of our deal?" The man said with a slight edge in his voice. Aristarkh gulped mentally.
"Yes, I did sir. My men will be stationed with his men at the Ceremony." Aristarkh said. His voice not betraying emotions.
"Good, good. Make sure he is dead once the rounds start flying." The man said obviously amused by the prospect of killing. Both men drank the rest of their coffee in reletive silence, not even daring to look at each other. The man finished his coffee before Aristarkh and stood up to leave, but before saying one last thing to Aristarkh.
"General, make sure my brother dies at that ceremony, or else I will have your head!" the man whispered at Aristarkh.
"Y-y-yes sir.... Lord Commander" Aristarkh said.
OOC:
The Lord Commander is my Nation's Leader's Brother. He is the commander of the Military and gained his title by fighting. But even with all of this attention, he still feels that he needs more. After years of letting Andrei, the king, live in reletive Harmony and happiness while he worked and flounded on the Military has made him quite angry.
This entire thing will eventually lead up to an Attempted Coup on Andrei's life and then would degenerate into a Civil War. I am doing this to add a little flavor to my nation's history and to get me back in NationStates RPing.
