Multiple Blog Postings, Source Unknown

Today, in an odd twist of events, the Empress has pulled every biologist, geneticist, and behavioral expert not in FISTA off their current projects and sent them to work on something top-secret. All work is classified, yet the government has recently ordered samples of all known animals and plants within the nation, as well as an unknown number of animals from overseas. 8In addition, half of the reserve military has been observed throughout the nation, counting plants and animals and generally getting in the way.

In other baffling behavior, a sign has been placed beside the large lake along the northern border, though the sign remains blank at this time. There have also been whisperings among nobles about an Empress Asuka... Yet, no noble will talk on the subject.

All bloggers are encouraged to keep an eye out, as something big is obviously happening.

Imperial Bulletin to All Citizens and Slaves
===============================

All travel to and from the WA diplomatic mission is hereby suspended, pending an upcoming change in how the mission is run. Also, all communication outside of noble channels to the mission is hereby suspended and all information not currently in public circulation is classified until further notice. This will be explained upon completion of the change and explanations will be forthcoming then.

In addition, all travel and civilian activies along the lake on our northern border is hereby suspended due to a military exorcise. All slaves and citizens are warned to keep away from the water of that lake. All information related to why is classified at this time and will be revealed at a later date.

Finally, all citizens and slaves are urged to help, if requested, with any duty when requested by a military member, no matter how odd the duty is. The details of the duties are classified and all citizens are urged to keep quiet about what they are doing to people who are not members of the military. This is a very important project, and as such compensation for any help given will be at triple the standard rate of pay. Your help is appreciated.

Imperial Bulletin to All Foreigners
========================

Travel and swimming in the lake along our northern border is hereby banned, due to a military exorcise. We do not wish you to get hurt by accident, so please keep your distance away from the lake. You will be compensated for this inconvenience by our government paying the balance of any difference in travel expenses and, in cases of vacations paid for around the lake, free passes to enjoy our hotsprings.

In addition, should a member of the military ask you for help on a project, please notify them that you are not a member of our nation. It is a duty of those who live here and, as such, we do not wish you to be dragged into performing what will likely seem dull and tiresome.

In addition, if you wish to become a citizen of our nation, the normal requirements are hereby waved. Instead, you must pass a background check, prove you can speak some basic Mandarin and Japanese, familiarity with the Articles of Imperialism, and be willing to undergo a medical examination or provide verified medical records. The medical part is so that our doctors know how to treat you should you need medical attention as well as what drugs you need due to current medical conditions, if any.

Also, should you have any exotic pets you do not wish to take care of, please let us know. We have facilities set up for taking care of them and a number of families looking for exotic pets.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Thank you.

A transcript of a recent chat:

*Now talking in #toreador4
*Reminder: The fruit sale is this Wednesday, so we need more people out picking! Come on, folks! Chop chop!
*WELCOME TO NEW MEMBERS KELITHIANIS AND OBERION!
*Advertising other channels is strictly forbidden.
<Catlady6> Nyhm!
<Femidas> Hina!
<locotrain> heard you were gobbled up by soldiers, man.
<Femidas> I was. Managed to catch some things about this project they've been working on. Utterly insane.
<Catlady6> Oh? *perk*
<Femidas> Yeah. You wouldn't believe it, but they're taking some kind of inventory.
<locotrain> inventory?
<Femidas> Yeah. They're building some kind of list of life. They've got animals they bought off the black market that I've never seen before.
<Catlady6> What do you think they're doing? Does it have something to do with the lawyers, behavioral experts, and philosophers they called in?
<Femidas> I don't know. But, get this... One of them said they'd need a summary of the list for the delegate.
<locotrain> sounds like politics to me. oh, did you hear about sarah?

Discuss.
