OOC: You're bombing me for bombing other people?
<OOC> It could happen. People don't like mushroom clouds.</OOC>
In the secure underground Eluvataran Central Command, the Presiding Steward consulted with many ERAF and other generals in a heated meeting. "We cannot tolerate such destructive behavior!" yelled General Ärhæus, "It is a requirement that our rocket forces make a pre-emptive strike before their lunatic government choses to attack us as well! Bombing them into the stone age sounds about right!"
Presiding Steward Beregond ArFinn interrupted, incredulously, "But if we fire upon them they will certainly retaliate. Are you just as insane man! We need to instruct them that any further launches
will result in their complete annihilation, sure, but pre-emptively attacking and causing the razing of Eluvatar?"
General ArBenn was quick to agree with the Presiding Steward. "Launching without warning is a complete misuse of the use of nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons only work as deterrent if one warns in advance."
General Ärhæus replied, cautiously, "I suppose that is a more prudent course of action."
The Presiding Steward, seeing consensus, then wired instructions to the Eluvataran Ambassador in Ryazania...
The Eluvataran Ambassador in Ryazania then communicated the following message:
This is not a threat or an ultimatum, simply a warning.
The next launch of a nuclear weapon from Ryazania for any reason but retaliation against another nuclear weapon will result in the launch of Eluvataran nuclear weapons on Ryazania. Thank you for you time and have a nice day.
I Presiding Steward Beregond ArFinn do declare this official correspondence of the Royal Confederacy of Eluvatar by the power vested in me by the Halls of the Stewards by the power granted them in the Absence of the King, soon may he return.
