Emperor Tar-Ilium:

I wish to inform that our religion is still strong, and as far as our citizenry, we wish to remain a stoutly Evermorian Catholic country. The reason behind the current attack is because of some dissenters among the Church Aristocracy. We had reason and proof to believe that the Bishop from Castello Esse, and the entire clergy therein were practicing protestants and even worse, one of the Bishops was found guilty of HERESY. A group in our country known as the Terran Liberation Front has been acting up in the Esse State area, and we know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the current kidnapping of Bishop Cid Ulmer, and High Cardinal Woerner, the leader of our Church.

We would request the help, at this time, of the United Imperium due to the nature of the issues at hand, and the assault on our belief system. However, we cannot have any foreign troop presence with in our nation, Therefore i would request some other solution between our nations at this time. The recapture of Woerner, and Edvard Knauer, the leader of the Terrans, is our current top priority. Their current location is unknown, but the last base of operations known was within the city of Carrestan, and secret police recently busted a large contingency of Terrans in the territory of Jericoh State.

Please contact me as soon as possible...

Regent Aelister Magreda,

This is good to hear. While my religion teaches that no religion is heretical, it is certainly contrary to any religion to rise up in anger and hate and attempt to overthrow the sovereign government. We can pledge some Myrorian prefects to aid in the search for the rebels, should you wish.

Empeurer Peté Tar-Ilium.

Col. Muqtada Al Sudani made his way to Mahmouds office. "Sir, there are hightened tensions along the evermorian/Bustian border."

"What do you mean by "tensions"?
"The Evermorian government launch tactical nuclear weapons on their own home soil, near the Bustian homeland."
"Keep me updated"

To All Nations Concerned:
From: Mohammed Tah Abbas, President of Whereamistan

Subject:
It has come to my attention that the evermorian government launched weapons of mass destruction upon their own people. We have no foreign relations with this country, and at this time will remain "on the fence" watching rather intently. I have called for the readiness of our strategic arm for merely defensive purposes. While we also hold no foreign relations with Bustos, we do have a business relationship with them. We hold to the fact to protect our national defense resources. Any covert or overt attack on the soverign soil of Bustos will face confrontation in the most severe of forms. This is in no way a threat, but merely a foreign relations guideline for this conflict. I pray for a speeding and safe end to this incident.

[High Evermore]

Regent Aelister Magreda sat at his desk staring at the wall, looking very concerned. "Sir! I have some bad news for you... The Republic of Whereamistan just issued a telegram to all Taijituan nations concerning the bombing of Castello Esse." The vizier handed Aelister the note, and he looked it over, slamming his fist into the table...

"God be damned! Get a call out to Ulma Koepler... I want her on Whereiamistan's soil as soon as possible! We can't have this leaking out and making enemies... I can't afford a trade embargo." He crumpled up the telegram, and tossed it into the trash bin, then pressed on the intercom button. "Salve... send the Minister of The Interior up... I hear he had information..." The door opened and Lord-Minister Earnhardt Verranicht, Minister of The Interior trotted into the room.

"Regent, sir." The Lord-Minister genuflected, "Bishop Cid Ulmer has been found... He was dead when we got there. Shot in the head with what appeared to be a .45 round. A note was attached..." Verranicht wiped some sweat off his forehead, "He was found on the border of Bustos 21, on one of the roads from Nalbradis in Jericoh State." Magreda opened the letter...

Regent:
If you ever want to see your precious Sarah Woerner again, you will wire 2,500,000,000 Ecksmarks to the offshore account 100578924-1556 within three weeks of this date. After three weeks, I will begin sending the High-Cardinal back in pieces.

~Edvard

The Regent set this letter down and wiped a tear from his eye... "Lord-Minister..."

Verranicht squeamishly stepped forward, "Yes, sir?"

"I want our borders closed, and all air traffic is to be suspended. If I see a single plane in the sky tomorrow, I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL SHOOT YOU MYSELF! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR!" Magreda whips out his Luger pistol and points it into the Lord-Chancellor's face.

"Sir!" Verranicht flees from the room.

The Regent sinks into his seat and presses the intercom button, "Get on line with the Minister of Defense and have him report to my office immediately. Oh... and get me in contact with the Myrorians..." The line hisses out.

Emperor Tar-Ilium:

We found Bishop Ulmer today, and he was murdered by the leader of the Terran Liberation front. My forces are on full alert, but I am requesting any help I can get from the Myrorian Theocratic Kingdom at this time. Prefects would be preferred, but Army regulars in no excess of 20% of our forces would be acceptable. I have taken steps to closing our borders, and I am issuing Command Zeta to Mobilize our military. We are on our highest level of alert at this time, and I need all the help I can get. I will explain the situation to whomever you send, should you not come in person.

We thank you in advance for any help... we are a nation in distress.

From: The High Evermorian Government Offices
RE: Ulma Woerner's arrival.

We are sorry to inform that our nation is at a state of distress, and all foreign diplomats and ministers are being returned to home soil at this time. Please forgive us for this inconvenience.

From the desk of: Regent Aelister Magreda

TO: All Grand Nations of Taijitu
FROM: Regent Aelister Magreda of High Evermore

Taijitu:

We publicly apologize for the use of a tactical nuclear weapon on our home soil. Due to the nature of some Internal issues we had the need for use of a Tactical Nuclear Armament on our soil, and we have absolutely no intentions to use anymore of our weapons of mass destruction on our soil, or any other.

We are a nation in distress... Our religious leader, High-Cardinal Sarah Woerner has been captured by The Terran Liberation Front, a terroristic organization based in our country, and is believed to be currently held somewhere on the Bustos 21-High Evermore border near the Jericoh State area. Our forces are currently on their Highest Alert status, and our borders as well as our Airspace is closed. We ask that if any delegates of any nation wish audience in High Evermore that they first notify the government, or myself personally, so that we may take the proper actions. We also ask for aid from the Bustian government in finding this criminal, and promise that in the worst case scenario, If the death of Sarah Woerner happens on Bustian soil, we will not hold it against your government, nor make you accountable for it.

I am sorry that my administration has to ask this of the nations of Taijitu, but the death of High-Cardinal Woerner could be the catalyst to throw our great nation back into Civil War. As Regent, it is within my duty to stop such a thing from happening. Please, I am requesting any help possible at this time.

Thank you.

"Brother, do you think that announcement was a little abrupt?" asked Mahmoud.
"Probably, however, I believe we have other matters to attend to. Now tell me about this coup?"....

To: Regent Aelister Magreda of High Evermore:
From: Mohammed Tah Abbas, President of Whereamistan.

Subject:
We fully understand that in times of peril, extreme measures may be taken to ensure the integrity of one's nation. Furthermore, we are in no position, nor or we in any way looking to intimidate another country from following their own domestic agenda. We will be watching this series of events, and will be ready to protect our own assets, that is it. Point Blank. No threat is being made to you at this time. Whereamistan is in a political tightwire of our own, however, once finished we would welcome a delegation to come and visit so that we may discuss this, and hopefully find a quick and direct end to this terrorist organization.

[Myroria]

Regent Aelista Magreta,

This is most acceptable. Currently our prefects are armed with either a shotgun or Luger pistol, but you may rearm them however you wish once they arrive. How many would you like to be sent?

Emperor Tar-Ilium:

However many you can spare to aid in peacekeeping ops and also counter-intelligence operations on the Bustian border. The SpAsTU, our Special Assault and Tactical Unit police attache, will be arming your prefects with MP5 Submachine Guns, and CZ190 pistols. Should they need training, our SpAsTU centurions will provide.

High Evermore thanks you and wishes upon you none but the best graces of God for helping us in our hour of need. Our prayers go out to you, Empeurer Tar-Ilium, and to all of your people.

[Bustos]

At one of the border posts along the Bustian-Evermorian border...

"Hey Bob, didja hear?" asked Johnny.

"Hear 'bout what?" replied Bob as he was checking the passengers of car coming from High Evermore.  The number of refugees attempting to enter the Allied States had dropped dramatically over the past couple of days since Evermorian security offically closed their borders.

"Some priest got it to the head by Evermorian rebels."  "Execution style."

Bob compared faces to the wanted papers supplied by the Evermorian government and the car was approved to entered.  "Nick, let them through," Bob said through his radio to the tower.  "A priest huh?  What he'd do?  Rape some little boys?"

The Chairperson and The Board are pleased to hear you plan to refrain from further use of your weapons of mass destruction.  Our border personnel has since tripled and have caught some of your rebels attempting to escape into our nation.  They are lower tier members of the Terran Liberation Front.  Our investigators are questioning them until a time can be arranged to transfer them into your security forces' hands.

[Myroria]

The Papal Guard pushed some anti-theocracy protesters out of the way as the Pope walked through. He ran up the stairs (being that he was only 37, the youngest pope on record) and stepped onto the balcony to the group of Myrorian Catholics gathered in Saint John's Square.

"My brothers and sisters! This is a turbulent time for Catholics everywhere! Our brothers, the Evermorians, are suffering strife from within! We must pray for their safety and the reestablishment of piousness! We shouldn't take for granted the Myrorian Catholic Church's absense of schisms and instead focus on the brotherhood and unity of all Abrahmic religions, whether Catholic, Orthodox, Judaism, or Muslim! Thank you!"

We will be glad to take them off your hands at any time nescesary. Should you find any cars coming in from the Jericoh State area, there is a good chance it will be Terran related.
