Nymall

Jacob slowly approached the great glass doors leading into the Hall of Remembrance, the seat of his lord Kanyn Tiradez, the presiding "president" of the Holy Empire. For many years her family had served the empire, and because her father, Zackryn Tiradez had bore no male children, the presiding ruler. Truth be told, she was the first female leader in the nations history. She had held office for three years, and there had been nothing but trouble ever since.
The glass doors swooshed open, leading to the Grand Hall of Remembrance, the seat of the Presiding President. This was one of the most beautiful rooms of the Ministry of Protection, and by far the most creepy, for this room was also a tomb. Sealed in coffins of glass in alcoves arranged side by side were the remains of all the past Presidents, leading all the way back to the great Nymall Tiradez, founder of the Holy Empire.
"Ah, Jacob. You bring news from our neighboring countries? How have they taken to us?"
Jacob tensed. theirs had been a isolationist nation before her father decided to start contacting other nations. Since then, it seemed these "tourists" always bought trouble in their wake.
"They have taken well to us, your ladyship. We have been able to barter many trade agreements that have economically strengthened our nation, and we have lept scientifically ahead by leaps and strides, as I'm sure your minister of science has told you... however, I am here concerning one of these initiatives..."
He could feel her tense from across the table. He hated when he had to do this.
"We have a traitor in our midst."
"Explain yourself!"
"One of our Visires from the area of Dudson Falls has staged a rebellion. Earlier this season, we had invited a number of delegates from neighboring nations in, some of them democratic. They must have spread lies and seeded the dark webs of revolt. As we speak, he has established a small militia and has fortified the Anharess Ministry of Truth."
"Take it back! I will suffer no ills from these rebel scum!"
"It's not that simple, my lady. Amongst other things, that site contained one of five rockets we had recently purchased for the initiation of a space program. The ministry is at risk. We need to get you to saftey, my ladyship."
"Very well. Show this traitor the full wrath of the holy word!"

Jacob scanned the leaflets on his desk. The instillation had been brought down with ease, but the rocket had been fired. It had flown across the small nation, eventually crashing into Mt. Narsis at the eastern border. Captured in the fight had been the Vizier and seven foreign agents. This was a very sticky situation, as they had been caught in the midst of a capital offense... heck, even an attempted regicide. The President wanted them all publicly hanged... and personally, the minister couldn't blame her. Since the incident, they had beefed up all internal security... but there was rumors of more rebels. The borders had been closed, and they started posting public address announcements for all foreign persons to visit local authorities... and they had been shipping them out by the bus load, to anyone who would take them... and quite a few had to be detained because there was simply nowhere to go. They had to clear out one of the towers of the Ministry of Truth just to make room for the "Shanty-hotels" the government was providing them with... there had been quite a few protests from the detainees. Thinking carefully, he finished the address.

To all respective nations:
The borders of the Holy Empire of Nymall are closed due to increased terrorist activites. We are aranging for transportation out of our country for the respected citizens of your countries, with the exception of:
1. Criminals held for Offences of Empire Law
2. Suspects directly connected to the events presiding on the events at Dudson Falls
3. Those caught trustpassing in areas clamied by the holy empire, in district of, occupied, or otherwise under direct controll of the Holy Empire.
By decree of the President, Lady Kanyn Tiradez, those captured IN DIRECT connection with the events shall be hanged until the breath of life leaves their bodies. those suspects detained for questioning, if found connected by empire records, shall be incarcerated for none less then 12 years, as one year for each tenant of the Holy Law that they have broken. At that time, the Empire will take into review the nature of the effects of their crimes, and decide on the safety of releasing the incarcerated individual to the authorities of their home country, whatever that may be.
It is also the decree of the President, Lady Kanyn Tiradez, that I implore all receiving nations to assist us in rooting out this terrible evil, so that we can resolve for peaceful diplomatic ties once again.
As per the tenant 140B of the Holy Law, written in stone by Lady Kanyn, Diplomatic parties may apply to the Ministry of Economic Defense for a limited pass. Our borders will continue to stay closed until this is resolved or the Holy Law dictates otherwise.
May the spirit of Nymall guide us to a better light...

"That could have gone better..." The man said as he adjusted his hat.
"They did as you promised, and our hand was played perfectly. They have sealed their borders, and are one less problem to worry about. Rest assured, it will go much easier next time. Speaking of which, I have you're next assignment."
"Ready." the man with the hat said as he stared off into the sunset...
