Snow mixed with volcanic ash whips around the 3 figures standing on the frozen tundra. One of these figures is Sergei Kilakov, the Prime Minister of Logan and Ky. Sergei can be seen kneeling in the snow with a burlap sack thrown over his head and his hands tied behind his back. The other two men are standing behind Sergei, verbally and physically assaulting him one last time before they send this tragic figure too his death. Finally, one of the men pulls out a semi-automatic pistol and jams it into Sergei's spine. The old politician holds his breath in anticipation of his passing into the next world. There is a brief silence, followed by a loud *crack* and a crimson stain on the snow.

"Yesterday the government released a statement revealing that the Prime Minister has been reported missing. Exactly one week ago Sergei Kilakov left his home in the now-rebuilt city of New Hilingrad. He has not been heard from since. We've heard rumors that a group with ties to the now powerless royal family may somehow be involved, but so far no accusations have been made." said Haylee Partak, a reporter for the United News Network.

"and now," said Haylee, "Lets get back to the weather..."

Present day-New Hilingrad

Prince Alexander IV stands on a podium in the center of the city. He is surrounded on all sides by over 1.5 million supporters of the royal cause. Alexander begins to speak...

"Let us rid ourselves of this corrupt regime, this plague on our once beautiful country. No more will we tolerate this so called republic, or our so called president!" yelled the prince over the thunder of cheers emmitting from the crowd.

Meanwhile, at the edge of the huge crowd, Kyan soldiers begin to seep in from every side. Upon reaching the outskirts of the crowd the soldiers try to make their way through, but are met with a barrage of rocks, curses, and derogatory terms for military men. Most turn around at this point, as they are unwilling to fight for a cause they dont believe in. A few keep trying, including the leader of a platoon who soon learns that his men have abandoned the effort. The man's name is Yuri Nagoyev, and he is infuriated.

"What are you doing?! Get back here before I court marshall your asses! God damn, what are ya, royalists?!" yells Yuri.

"Maybe we are," says an anonymous private, "and maybe you should take your court marshall to someone who cares. In fact, why dont you try it?You'll find your superiors are just as sympathetic to the royalist cause as we are. This whole damn mission was thought up by the damned republic, and I dont know about you but im sure as hell not going to listen to what they say anymore."

A murmur of assent is audible from the platoon. Yuri is dumbstruck. He opens his mouth to speak, but nothing comes out. Finally he just storms off, unsure of what to do next.

Back at the Podium, Alexander is beggining to rap up his speech. He begins the declaration.

"and now finally I can reveal to you all my real reason for calling this assembly of royalist supporters. I, Alexander Mickolov IV, am declaring myself the one true leader of Logan and Ky. I am the King, and you are my people!"
