Shireroth

A human is just a machine. Just a machine. Just a machine. It can be corrupted, it can break. And still...

One more thing he could do. One more act of defiance, such a small thing - to help this man.

The message felt heavy in his pocket. He could take it, and there would be no way even the ...

Well, seeing that this is going to be my last decree, I might as well drop the character... I'll be speaking as ari from now on.

That experiment was fun for a while. The completely in-character kaisership worked... until I stopped feeling creative. Well, not that you need much creativity for it ...

Although a mere formality by now... I declare this induction confirmed.

There is no need for the wrath of the gods.

Mine is enough.

This decree is hereby repealed. Hasan was once of Kalir, and he is of Kalir no more.

(ooc: in other news, having feelings of inadequacy in the writing department, but will try actually getting to the Next Phase in the Gralus thing ...

This was promised, and this will be given. I have moved the payment for the MiniTrade to take care of. I expect a good satellite system in return.

Taken care of now. I confirm the approval - welcome aboard, William

I'll countermand that for now. William Payne is not a citizen... yet.

I think it's best I take this one over. William, I'll be PMing you about your citizenship soon.

"I will have a look at it. But for now, it's time to adjourn for tonight. We can't find everything out by sitting here speaking with each other. There will be more to tell tomorrow. Oh, and whatever the Nelagan president was supposed to say, I'll make sure you all get briefed on that. Dismissed ...

Atos was already setting as the council convened once more. The hall was full of tired, haggard delegates and leaders; many had had very little if any sleep for the last 24 hours. Impatience, suspense and weariness weighed heavy in the air, and the Kaiser had quite respectable bags under his eyes ...

Prime Kampioen Russell, you have my permission to induct Malliki Tosha in the order. I'm afraid there are too many matters of state currently going horribly wrong that I won't be able to find the time to read the precise battle reports, so I won't be able to compose an appropriate speech for the ...

OoC: Andreas (and the rest of you), just for the sake of chronological consistency, I'd prefer things to work out so that the Council took place between Jonas deciding to ask for a vote on whether to use the gate and him coming back having heard of the Raven corps . Otherwise he'd kind of be in two ...

"Before that, I have a few remarks to make about things said and done earlier...


Duke Dine, that the Prophet technology should have been so fortuitously thought of prior to this event sounds inspired by Ifni herself. The Imperial Government will take care of any expenses to get the planned ...

I'm sure I don't need to repeat the old adage about letting something that you love go free. My decision stands; I expect the ISI to prosper in private hands far more than it ever did under a ministry that had nothing to do with its competencies.

And yes, the mandate still stands. If the MoMA ...

I don't quite understand what you were doing under the MiniEx in the first place. All ISI assets currently owned by the MiniEx shall hereby be transferred to the personal ownership of Leo Dine, under the mandate that you continue your good work exploring the universe and get MoMA approval any time ...

"The Kaiser Ayreon is our one-of-a-kind gravship-carrier and... it's doubtlessly full of reflective surfaces inside. Remember, we do not know what will happen and when. We can't have the ship stick around for any longer than it is necessary, it could be too great a danger in enemy hands. However, we ...

If a room could feel proud, the newest council chamber in an expansion of the Imperial Palace had every reason to be well-pleased. While it was hardly as extravagantly architected as the older parts, it was highly functional and kitted with every tool for communication and presentation one would ...

The Imperial government recognises the secession of the County of Agnesia as attempted, nifty, amusing, and totally illegal. The writing therein is recognised as amusing in places and actually quite inspiring in others.

In recognition of these recognitions, and approximately following Landsraad law ...

"There's no need to worry about the device, dear Khan. A mere small-scale hologram projector like this is a technological trifle hardly even worth reverse engineering, let alone inventing in the first place. Now, I assume that little that passes on this planet has evaded the attention of your ...

The MoMA shall have full control over this operation and decide when it is time to head into the breach.

A safe, stable Benacia is paramount to our national security. The last thing we want as a neighbour is a disaffected Amokolia under the rule of the politically unstable Ocia, liable to lash out at little provocation and difficult to trade and cooperate with. Decrees #388 and #391 have my blessing ...

Clear skies and deep oceans, Shireroth.

This day and this event, that I should stand before you in this place where many have stood before and still many will stand, has been long foretold. Like Loki III, and Los II, and others before me, my ascension had already been promised and planned for long ...
