"Now that's out of the way," Auros continued as he shifted into a more relaxed position. "Now, there is something of great importance which I was hoping we could discuss in secret. I would rather not broach it in open quarters."

Dioptase waved the guards off, they left the room and shut the door quietly behind them. "Well, there's no one here but us."

Post by Chevron on Mar 28, 2016 23:09:04 GMT
Chevron sat at the table, her outfit making her the largest and most intimidating person at the table. The table was round, with a map of the Crescent in the center.
The conference began, Chevron's advisers pointing out the different benefits of different regions.
"RoseLightania would be easy to take" "Sino-Rome is in a strategic location" "Limerick is resource rich"
Everyone had to have their input. People began to argue, but Chevron remained quiet, considering her options.
"What do you think Pope?"
Chevron looked up confused.
"Our final goal is to have the whole Crescent yes?"
Chevron put her finger on a space on Sino-Rome.
"While this is true, we need to start small. I'd like to receive this land here, it makes reaching Limerick easier and cuts Sino off from the ocean"
An agreeative murmur moved around the room. An adviser asked how to take it. Chevron crossed her arms over her stomach.
"Emcepia, we have common interests yes?" Chevron put out
"I wouldn't encourage the barbarians. We can't follow in the footsteps of China, we can't fall into the Mongols"
"So we don't encourage them" Chevron stated. "We have someone else do that"

EMCEPIA NEWS - A Sino-Roman Terrorist (hired in secret by Chevron) destroys a factory in Emcepia. There was negligible damage, the man was wearing a sash that said "This world is for the civilized" CASTILUVKC NEWS - A small group of protesters tear down a section of the wall being built before each one is arrested NEW EDEN NEWS - An atheist terrorist group is founded, spreading a message of religious freedom ROSELIGHTANIA NEWS - About half of the populous is upset over needless spending, but not willing to act on it yet SINO-ROME NEWS - A good portion of your population has begun backing the the message of removing Emcepian savagery, the people are feeling annoyed with "social inferiority" in every country except Limerick, which awes them. LIMERICK NEWS - An underwater city had it's walls breached and the city is now very flooded. Minimal casualty.

"I've heard more rumors, this time of New Edenites leading vigilante-style raids on my border with that nation. You know how--ahem--"aggressive" they can be." Auros paused a bit before going on. "I would be eternally grateful if you would team up with me to persuade Pope Chevron to open up trade and access to their seaports."

Supreme M.C sat in his office, he yelled "MESSENGER BOY!" And a couple of seconds later a man came in with a piece of paper and started writing everything Supreme M.C said on a piece of paper.
"Dear Auros, leader of Sino Rome. In light of these the recent news I begin to question your right to rule a country, I would like an explanation for this event and funds to fix the damages. If you'd like we could talk this through, after all Emcepia has eliminated terrorist groups and crime in our country, we could do it again in yours, for a price.
Supreme Mèmeum Cèpeum."
"Now, Send that to Auros" Supreme M.C said shooing the messenger boy out of his office.
"Damn hippies, ruining my country" he murmured.

"Wonderful, your Majesty. I am so glad we could reach a decision in so little time." A messenger boy soon pulled up with a telegram from the kingdom of Roselightiana. Auros read over it, then said:
"I have some business to attend to in another realm. I must be off, but do wire me if any problems arise. I will return straightaway and help resolve things."

Dioptase spoke briefly, "Goodbye, Auros."
She watched his departure and had someone assure his safe return. A sigh of relief escaped Dioptase as she ran her fingers through her hair.

Captain Matthias was furious. He could not deliver the telegram his sister wrote to Auros himself because he was "busy" It would be sent to where he was.
He and the Guard rode back to Roselightania, still fuming. When he returned, he stormed into the throne room and complained to his sister.
"Those assholes wouldn't let me hand-deliver! Fuck!" He walked around, fuming. Milina spoke up soothingly.
"Calm down, Matty. Its alright. The important thing is that it was delivered. Anyway, lets wait for a response from him."

Before departing, Auros stopped by a boutique to pick up some stationery. Taking a seat at a cafe, he took the fountain pen in his breast pocket and began to compose a little note to Her Majesty in Roselightiana. He wrote:
"19 June,
Dearest Majesty--
I am sending this note as a way of informing you of my imminent arrival in response to your telegram. I hope this letter finds you in good health and amiable spirits. I will be arriving within a day of this missive's reception.
Ever yours, Auros I, Emperor of Sino-Rome

Queen Milina was in her bed chamber, brushing her long, lustrous hair out after taking her morning shower. It went past her waist by about three inches in thick, brown-red waves. She was just about to get dressed for the day when she heard a knock at her door. She was in her bathrobe and nightdress still, but she didn't care. "Who is it?" "Lady Milina, its me! I have exciting news!" Milina smiled. "Then come on in, Danielle, before you explode." The door burst open and Daniel's twin sister, her chambermaid, burst into the room, waving a telegram. "Danny gave me this and told me to give it to you straight away!" She squirmed with excitement. "Its from Emperor Auros of Sino-Rome!" Milina's eyes widened. Then she grinned and squealed. She grabbed Danielle and twirled her around the room. "Let me see! Let me see!" She opened the telegram and they read it together. They both squealed. Danielle laughed happily. "Thats wonderful, your Highness!" Milina smiled in excitement. "I know! We need to start preparing. We only have a day to get it all ready! Go get Daniel, Damien and Matthias, quickly!" Danielle ran out of the room. Milina hugged the telegram to her chest. She jumped up and down in excitement. Auros was coming to Rosallah!! She calmed down and regained her composure. She had to act queenly, at least as queenly as she could be in a bathrobe and nightdress. Danielle came back with the three men. She gave them each certain instructions to prepare for Auros' visit. They all bowed and went on their way to fulfill them. Milina turned to Danielle. "Go to the kitchens and tell the chefs of our approaching guests. I'll be down to help in a few moments to plan the menu and prepare the food." The chambermaid rushed out. Milina ran to her closet and opened the door. She pulled out two dresses, one was her working dress, a pale pink sundress that she could cook in, and the dress that she would wear tomorrow when Auros arrived. She got dressed, pulled her hair back in a ponytail and ran to the kitchen to help. ((The dress looks like this, only with a light rose and a pale pink, and the jeweled clasp on her waist is a green gem with gold trim. The earrings are non-existent and she is wearing a gold snake-chain with an amulet that is a smaller version of her dress's clasp. Her crown will be made of small, golden Celtic roses and twinkling pink diamonds. Milina looks exactly like Mercy, but with even longer hair.)) LINK TO DRESS

Auros sat in the train until it pulled up directly adjacent to her palace. "At least the weather is fairer here."

Milina was nervous.
She has been walking back and forth in front of her daybed throne for about 20 minutes, waiting for news. All the preparations have been completed and she was wearing her dress she had picked. Now all they needed was news about Auros' arrival.
Matthias, Damien and Daniel walked in, all of them dressed in the formal gear of the Royal Guard. Milina stopped. "Any news yet?"
Matthias wore a black and emerald green tunic with leather boots, breeches and a green cape. The cape was clasped to the side with a Celtic rose made of silver. There was a silver line that ran down the front of his tunic and was dotted on both sides, 12 dots in counting, with a 13th one at the top of the line. Daniel and Damien were wearing the same kind of outfit, except they had a large, silver Celtic rose on the tunics instead of Matthias' pattern and no capes. Matthias smiled and spoke calmly.
"His train just pulled in. We are going to go greet him at the station. Would you like to go with us?"
She shook her head vigorously. "N-No, just bring him to the throne room when you come back." She composed herself. "And take the car this time, since the station is about 2 miles from here. I don't think you guys should walk back and forth."
Matthias frowned. "But isn't the car getting fixed right now? I thought there was an issue with the brakes."
Milina froze, then smacked her face and swore. "Shit! I forgot! Fuck!" Matthias chuckled, walked up the stairs to her and gave her a hug.
"Calm down, sis, its okay. Its a nice day out and we can just walk. I'm sure that this Auros wouldn't mind stretching his legs anyway." He walked back down and gestured to Daniel and Damien. "Contact Demetri and Clarence. They are already at the train station. Make sure that they keep the Emperor company until we arrive." They nodded and walked off to telephone them
Matthias turned to his sister and smiled. "You're excited, aren't you?" She nodded slowly. He chuckled. "Good, just be sure to stay calm and try not to fangirl when he gets here."
Milina burned scarlet and growled. "Not funny, Matty." He started laughing. "I'm just kidding, sis. I'm sure you'll be fine."
The two men returned and Matthias bowed to Milina. "Well, we are on our way to greet him. How about you put on some music or something, its mighty quiet in here." He grinned at Milina. "We don't want to scare your crush away with silence." Before she could say anything, he winked at her and walked out with Daniel and Damien.
Milina sighed, then she turned on the radio that was on a table near her throne. It started to play "Kiss From A Rose" by Seal and the soothing song echoed through the room. She relaxed a bit as she listened to the song. She crawled onto her daybed and closed the canopy veil, covering the front of the daybed. She sat and waited from them to return, looking through the material in a pink haze as more soothing and jazzy music played.
-------
Matthias, Daniel and Damien walked to the station. Matthias was right, it was a nice day for a walk, with a cool breeze blowing in the air and with soft clouds in the clear blue sky. They made it to the station, where Demetri and Clarence were standing with the Emperor Auros. Matthias walked up to him and bowed.
"A pleasure to meet you, your Grace." He then offered his hand toward the Emperor. "I am Captain Matthias Delara of the Royal Guard. Welcome to our fair city of Rosallah."

Auros bowed, and followed the rather attractive young man. "Where are we going first? To see Her Majesty, I presume?"
