“The Tlanowa is not mortally wounded and should recover, they are currently resting after surgery.” said the guard over the phone. Yenuha and Yonaguska let out a relieved sighs at the news,
“Thank you, keep visitors to a minimum and security high. Do not let the Tlanowa near any windows and keep information about their condition top secret for now.” ordered Yenuha,
“Understood, sir.”
Upon putting the phone down, Yonaguska ran a hand down his face and fell back into a chair,
“Thank the Great Spirit that we don’t have to deal with the fallout of a successful assassination.” said Yonaguska,
“Yes, but we still have to catch the person behind this. As soon as we let news of Adsila’s condition reach the public the assassin will likely strike again.” said Yenuha as he takes a bottle of rum out of a liquor cabinet and pours himself and Yonaguska a glass. But before either of them could take a sip Yenuha’s phone started to ring. With a groan, Yenuha checked who it was from Director of Communications, Awinita, and answered the call,
“He-”
“Pull up the news, now!” barked Director Awinita.
Yenuha gave a worried look at Yonaguska before having Yonaguska pull up the RNN’s live news broadcast. When the video loaded, they saw General Waholi speaking to the reporters at the entrance of the house.
“While Her Majesty’s condition and her assassin is unknown to us. However, we have strong suspicions that the perpetrator was an operative from the commie Fujansk government with support from the socialist groups in Zoran. We believe that the fujansk and the socialists seek to destabilize our nation through the assassination of our beloved Queen…”
Yenuha slammed his fist down on the desk,
“That bastard!” he exclaimed, “I knew he should have been put under watch!”
“This is not good, we just started to recover from the Kalmach affair and now this!” groaned Yonaguska,
“Awinita, what’s your plan for dealing with this?” asked Yenuha,
“First, I am going to need you to get him off the air!” answered Awinita, “Only then can I organize a press conference to express our apologies and clear up the misinformation spread by Waholi. How you deal with the Fujansk and the socialists is on you.”
“Alright, I will see what I can do. Keep me posted.” said Yenuha before hanging up and turning to Yonaguska, “Come on, let’s get Waholi out of the spotlight.”

An old, rusted, and beaten up car rumbles down the street towards the crime scene with an older man behind the wheel. As he reaches the barricade he is stopped by an officer of the Agency of National Security,
“Sir, you must turn around and take a detour, the road ahead is blocked off. Civilians are forbidden from entering the crime scene.” said the officer,
“Oh well, sir, eh I’m a police officer,” he says as he digs into his rumpled raincoat and pulls out his badge and ID, “Lieutenant Golivmiwo, NZPD. I was told I would be allowed to investigate the crime scene.”
The officer looks over the identification to verify the identity of the lieutenant,
“Oh, apologies Lieutenant. We were told to expect an officer from the NZPD but you don’t look like a police officer.”
“Oh it’s no problem, sir, I get that a lot.”
“Right this way then, you can park up here.”
Lieutenant Golivmiwo is then escorted by the officer to a parking space and is taken to the scene of the crime. The place where the queen’s body is laid has been outlined with tape and a group of agents are gathered around the area.
“This is where it happened, lieutenant. But this is about as good as we can get because we think the bullet is in the Queen’s body. So we won’t know much until we get details fro-” he stopped as he looked over at the lieutenant who is holding a cigar in one hand and patting around his body with the other,
“Hey, uh, do you have a match?” Lieutenant Golivmiwo asks the officer,
“No, I don’t smoke. Are you paying attention, Lieutenant?”
“Yes sir.” he says before walking up to another officer, “You got a match?” he asks again, before proceeding to ask nearly every officer on the platform until someone finally has a lighter and helps him light his cigar. He then walks around the scene, observing the outline of the body before squatting down next to it. He turns to look at the officer that had been speaking to him,
“Hey er uh, you don’t happen to have the bullet do you?”
“No!” he exclaims, “I knew you weren’t listening.” he says with a sigh,
“Well uh, I think I may have found it.”
The officer looks at him in disbelief,
“What? Where?” he says and two other officers join him in walking over to where the lieutenant is.
“You see that little hole in the floorboards there,” he says while gesturing to the hole with his cigar, “If you look closely you can see splintering around the hole and at the right angle you can see a glint of what looks like metal deeper in the hole.”
“How did we miss this?” says the officer in disbelief,
“I don’t know sir, you tell me.” he says with a smile, “Can someone from ballistics try and figure out where the bullet may have been fired from before we analyze it?” he says to other officers around him. From there the lieutenant gets up and hums the old nursery rhyme, This Old Man, to himself as he walks off and seemingly inspects the horizon from the platform.

    The streets were packed with people from across the country gathered in the capital to hear the news to be announced by the queen. News channels were interviewing politicians and Ministers to try and get some clue as to what news the queen is going to announce only to receive commentary on the occasion and the political situation of the country without any real answer. All noise from the crowd started to die down as soon as Queen Adsila began walking onto the stage to stand behind the podium,
    “Good morning, today is a momentous occasion for the country. Since the defeat of the Corpocracy, the country has had a provisional government organizing the reconstruction and governance of the nation, but today that has come to an end. On this day, a new constitution for the Zoranian government has been ratified and an official government has been established for the people of Zoran.”
    The crowd roared with cheers and shouting at the news, a feeling of hope filled the streets of New Zoradia as the people felt confident in the future of their country for the first time in years. Adsila soon continued,
    “The entire constitution can be found online and it will be distributed to the press at the end of this event. With the ratification of the constitution, it is my pleasure to announce that elections to the dikahnawadvsdi aninotlvsgi iyunadai (National Council of Lawmakers) shall begin in a few months! Details on elections and voting can be found on the Office of Election’s website and election officials shall be visiting various communities and providing information sessions on voting and supervising registration for the upcoming elections.”
    The roaring increased with intensity at this news and the crowd began chanting the queen’s name.
    “It has been a tumultuous few years filled with uncertainty and pain, but now I can say that we are firmly on a path towards a new dawn for Zo-”
    That was when a bang echoed through the streets followed by Adsila falling to the ground. Raspberry Berets and other security ran to the body of the queen as terrified screams filled the air and panic spread like wildfire through the crowd. Police began to try and quell the crowd, trying to control the tide of people to reduce risk of injury in the crowd. The queen’s body was quickly carried off and the hope that once hung over the nation was now dimmed as the nation worried about the fate of the Adsila.
    Meanwhile in a distant hotel room, a man packed up their rifle and hid it in the room service cart and continued on with his disguise. He didn’t think it would go so smoothly but apparently he was wrong, all he had to do now was hide the rifle and keep a low profile until he could safely leave the country. After going through a few more rooms, he went down to the staff room, took the case out of the cart, and walked out of the backdoor. He then tossed the case into the dumpster and removed his gloves. He then walked a few blocks before tossing the gloves into another dumpster along the way. While he knew it was likely sloppy, he was confident that the law enforcement would be competent enough to link it all to him.
    If I get through this, there will be no doubts in Tanamara Tsinohewu’s mind that I am worth my fee.

    Yenuha Aditsi, General Waholi, Director Soyohata, Interior Minister Yonaguska A’ama, and city police chief Ahuludegi A’gakohdi push past members of the press as they make their way to Adsila’s house to discuss recent events.
    “We will not be answering questions right now.” Waholi says as he shoves the door closed with a grunt.
    “How could we let this happen!?” Yenuha exclaims, “Did the Royal Guard and the Raspberry Berets not scout the area a week in advance and station people on the rooftops!?”
    “Of course we did!” replied Yonaguska, “No one reported any suspicious activity during the speech so how this gunman was able to pull off the shot is beyond me!”
    “Do you think it was a foreign power? The commie fujansk perhaps?” asked Waholi, dabbing his head with a handkerchief,
    “The fujansk rank last on the list of possible suspects.” answered Soyohata, “Hell, I would suspect the Giovannilandians before the fujansk. But we have not had any reports or warning of any kind that would point to an assassination attempt. It is too early to start pointing fingers until we get more details on the crime scene.”
    “Agreed,” began Yenuha, “Yonaguska, have all transportation in and out of the city closed off and ground all flights in the country until we find the person behind this. Start investigating things ASAP and get guards around the Queen’s hospital room.”
    Yonaguska nodded and started making the necessary calls while Chief A’gakohdi cleared his throat,
    “Ah yes, Chief A’gakohdi. Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about you.” said Yenuha while having actually completely forgotten about the city’s police chief, “We could use your men’s help in blocking traffic in and out of the city.”
    “That’s a given, sir, but might I offer our best detective to help in this investigation?” said Ahuludegi,
    “Umm, sure. We need as much help as we can get.”
    “Will do, sir.” he then goes off to radio into the station leaving Waholi and Yenuha alone at the entrance of the house.
    “What would you like the military to do, Yenuha?”
    “Nothing, we don’t need the civilians to be panicking any more than they are now.”
    “Are you sure? Not even martial law?”
    “Especially not martial law. And do not go anywhere near the press! Leave them to me.” Yenuha says before heading on to their office while Waholi glared at him as he left. He turned his gaze to the door where the press awaits, the gears in his head turning as he thought about what he could gain from the opportunity.

AGERAN POLITICAL OVERVIEW 1423
It's that Time of year again with the 1423 election on the horizon let's look at the Ageran political landscape and how each party looks going into the election year.
Democratic Socialists: The nations largest party in the Dhiringúr is in a very different position to the one in the last election. Two successive decades of their rule in the country is starting to show wear and the dipping opinion polls of Premier Markus Rolsund is beginning to become an issue. Personal scandals at the leadership level of the party including offensive comments made by the Premier at a party conference five years ago have led to a loss in trust from voters. That and the fact that after nearly 20 years of leadership of the isle cracks in the Dem Soc machine were already showing in 1420 when they had to rely on a coalition with Social Reform as they came 2 seats short of a majority, critics of the current Premier say Rolsund is an old man stuck in the past that can't compete with the likes of Árnur Darrúe of the Land Party who is sure to win the votes of younger Agerans. If an election was held this week it is suggested that the Dem Socs wouldn't even be the second largest party  outright.
Social Reform and The Moderates: We're putting these two together as they're much of a muchness. It's suggested that Social Reform which was born out of a spat within the Dem Soc party will follow its parent party in lowering electoral success. The Moderates will be kingmakers this time round, they are predicted to win around the same number of seats thanks to their voter base in North and Central Morvik and Sór Vestúr and it will be their allegiance either the Liberal Conservatives, the Land Party or the Dem Socs must win if they want to visit the Prince in the new year.
The Land Party: The rise of the land party has been nothing short of extraordinary. In 1420 they were an elecoral footnote, a party built on the protection of land and conservation of the enviroment as well as social welfare and high spending on social programmes in a country with one of the most stringent conservation laws in the world. However the arrival of it's new, down to earth, young and dynamic leader Árnur Darrúe has flipped what was a fringe party in the Dhiringúr on its head. Darrúe has added an element of the Liberal Conservatives traditionalist rhetoric to his party's ideals giving him the best of both sides of the political spectrum, he's popular on social media and with the nation's young people doing interviews with magazines and online Q&As he is seen as the leader to bring Ageros forward further into the 2020's. His party is predicted to at least triple its number of seats in the Dhiringúr from 8 to 24 he could be the man that relegates the current rulers of Ageros to the history books.
Liberal Conservatives: Another party looking to take advantage of Dem Soc weakness the Liberal Conservatives also have a new leader. Fraún Poilais has doubled down on the party's populsit, traditionalist stance hoping if he focuses on issues targetting the current Dem Soc government and their suppossed lack of patriotism he can make way in rural Fyslas where his party made gains in 1420 with a more toned down version of this campaign.
To conclude, election 1424 in Ageros is set to flip the current political landscape on its head and the Dhiringúr could look very different in a year's time. Check Thúraiste Póstúr for all political updates from the evergreen isle.

    “Agreed,” began Yenuha, “Yonaguska, have all transportation in and out of the city closed off and ground all flights in the country until we find the person behind this. Start investigating things ASAP and get guards around the Queen’s hospital room.”
    Yonaguska nodded and started making the necessary calls while Chief A’gakohdi cleared his throat,
    “Ah yes, Chief A’gakohdi. Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about you.” said Yenuha while having actually completely forgotten about the city’s police chief, “We could use your men’s help in blocking traffic in and out of the city.”
    “That’s a given, sir, but might I offer our best detective to help in this investigation?” said Ahuludegi,
    “Umm, sure. We need as much help as we can get.”
    “Will do, sir.” he then goes off to radio into the station leaving Waholi and Yenuha alone at the entrance of the house.
    “What would you like the military to do, Yenuha?”
    “Nothing, we don’t need the civilians to be panicking any more than they are now.”
    “Are you sure? Not even martial law?”
    “Especially not martial law. And do not go anywhere near the press! Leave them to me.” Yenuha says before heading on to their office while Waholi glared at him as he left. He turned his gaze to the door where the press awaits, the gears in his head turning as he thought about what he could gain from the opportunity.

July 15, 1423
New Zoradia, Zoran
11:30 AM Overtime
    The streets were packed with people from across the country gathered in the capital to hear the news to be announced by the queen. News channels were interviewing politicians and Ministers to try and get some clue as to what news the queen is going to announce only to receive commentary on the occasion and the political situation of the country without any real answer. All noise from the crowd started to die down as soon as Queen Adsila began walking onto the stage to stand behind the podium,
    “Good morning, today is a momentous occasion for the country. Since the defeat of the Corpocracy, the country has had a provisional government organizing the reconstruction and governance of the nation, but today that has come to an end. On this day, a new constitution for the Zoranian government has been ratified and an official government has been established for the people of Zoran.”
    The crowd roared with cheers and shouting at the news, a feeling of hope filled the streets of New Zoradia as the people felt confident in the future of their country for the first time in years. Adsila soon continued,
    “The entire constitution can be found online and it will be distributed to the press at the end of this event. With the ratification of the constitution, it is my pleasure to announce that elections to the dikahnawadvsdi aninotlvsgi iyunadai (National Council of Lawmakers) shall begin in a few months! Details on elections and voting can be found on the Office of Election’s website and election officials shall be visiting various communities and providing information sessions on voting and supervising registration for the upcoming elections.”
    The roaring increased with intensity at this news and the crowd began chanting the queen’s name.
    “It has been a tumultuous few years filled with uncertainty and pain, but now I can say that we are firmly on a path towards a new dawn for Zo-”
    That was when a bang echoed through the streets followed by Adsila falling to the ground. Raspberry Berets and other security ran to the body of the queen as terrified screams filled the air and panic spread like wildfire through the crowd. Police began to try and quell the crowd, trying to control the tide of people to reduce risk of injury in the crowd. The queen’s body was quickly carried off and the hope that once hung over the nation was now dimmed as the nation worried about the fate of the Adsila.
    Meanwhile in a distant hotel room, a man packed up their rifle and hid it in the room service cart and continued on with his disguise. He didn’t think it would go so smoothly but apparently he was wrong, all he had to do now was hide the rifle and keep a low profile until he could safely leave the country. After going through a few more rooms, he went down to the staff room, took the case out of the cart, and walked out of the backdoor. He then tossed the case into the dumpster and removed his gloves. He then walked a few blocks before tossing the gloves into another dumpster along the way. While he knew it was likely sloppy, he was confident that the law enforcement would be competent enough to link it all to him.
    If I get through this, there will be no doubts in Tanamara Tsinohewu’s mind that I am worth my fee.

    Yenuha Aditsi, General Waholi, Director Soyohata, Interior Minister Yonaguska A’ama, and city police chief Ahuludegi A’gakohdi push past members of the press as they make their way to Adsila’s house to discuss recent events.
    “We will not be answering questions right now.” Waholi says as he shoves the door closed with a grunt.
    “How could we let this happen!?” Yenuha exclaims, “Did the Royal Guard and the Raspberry Berets not scout the area a week in advance and station people on the rooftops!?”
    “Of course we did!” replied Yonaguska, “No one reported any suspicious activity during the speech so how this gunman was able to pull off the shot is beyond me!”
    “Do you think it was a foreign power? The commie fujansk perhaps?” asked Waholi, dabbing his head with a handkerchief,
    “The fujansk rank last on the list of possible suspects.” answered Soyohata, “Hell, I would suspect the Giovannilandians before the fujansk. But we have not had any reports or warning of any kind that would point to an assassination attempt. It is too early to start pointing fingers until we get more details on the crime scene.”

Following reports of “savages”, Giovanniland scrambles to colonize Nur
by Jerry Poole, Head Writer
NURVILLA, GIOVANNILAND—As state news sources in Nur report on various encounters with “savages” from outside their borders, the cry for help has finally reached the ears of professionals.
A fleet of ships landed on the continent to claim the territory in the name of Giovanniland, and the colony of Nurvilla was quickly established. The Giovannilandians wasted little time in wiping out the Nuran savages.
“Giovanniland has a long and proud history of bringing civility to uncivilized lands,” said Kristovo Kolombio, who led the initial expedition, in an interview. “We have heard the prayers of the Nuran people and shall surely bring these savages to the light of Violet.”
“By force, if necessary,” another official helpfully added.
Leaked intelligence reports indicate that at least three people groups have been "converted" so far, with no sign of slowing down.
Prime Minister Hessen of Kalmach issued a statement in support of the invasion. This statement was immediately retracted and replaced with a declaration of war as Giovannilandian forces crossed the Kalmach border. A representative of the Infinite Emperor of Aukera said something about “heathens fighting heathens”, but we didn’t really understand anything else.
Anti-colonial activists could not be reached for comment after our previous feature story.
Sources vary as to which people groups in Nur are the savages and which ones are not, but Kolombio assured the Review that this was not an issue. “They will all be Giovannilandians in the end.”

July 14, 1423, address on the Uprising of the Second Campan Union
Summary
In April, on the 2nd, only about two months ago, a large group of very vocal protestors demanded a referendum yet again for Gran Blindaje independence, Diego Wright would then authorize the referendum, followed by Elena Carter. The vote lost with over 70% in favor of staying a part of Campa Simpatica, this failure was largely considered amounted to by the protesters' extreme left wing and authoritarian nature, calling to replicate the extreme government of the original Campan Union. This failure then would lead to the formation of the "Second Campan Union" in the South of Gran Blindaje with its capital and origin lying in Maria, a fairly rural land locked city. After gaining support in the city as well as near by cities, the revolution would spread and formally declare both independence and war on April 13th. The revolution would quickly spread through rural areas, giving the nation a small coastline in the East. The Gran Blindaje army began fighting the troops back, though it was a struggle as a lot of equipment had already been captured in the jungle areas. The rebellion would continue to expand through rural areas, but would become stuck in a stalemate once reaching the more prepared urbanized coastal areas. By this point, the rebellion roughly looked as it does in the image below.

The struggle would continue until the arrival of New Kalmachian forces which found much more luck in the liberation of Gran Blindaje, starting to push the forces back into the Southern jungles. It is believed that in desperation, the forces then invaded South trying to get enough valuable land to push back, however Artingur would quickly push these forces back as well, surrounding the the rebellion and leading to and even faster defeat on July 12th. 
Address of Elena Carter
Hello Simpaticans, we all hope you are all doing well and all who were injured are recovering. Me, as well as the other state and general organizers have been discussing what this all means for our nation and what actions should be taken. We are obviously going to be having many issues to vote on in the following elections so we recommend you all prepare for that if possible. One of the first questions we all want to figure out, how can we prevent this in the future? We have allowed protest, we have allowed referendum, and these did not work. We believe our only option left is increasing our military budget and modernizing our military. We want peace, we do not want this, but revolutionaries have forced our hand. We have no more freedoms to give them, we can not give them freedom by taking away the freedom of other Gran Blindaje inhabitants, so we must keep a military to protect this.     
Furthermore, the "Second Campan Union" may not be our only threat to consider. Aftokratorian ships were found shipping weapons to the Second Campan Union. This is an unacceptable intervention from an already morally dubious nation. We will try to keep peace with both regimes, but we believe for the sake of both deterrence and if need be, we should vote in favor of a modern military, expect to see that in the elections soon. 
Another issue is the rebellion's involvement in Artingur. Artigur is far from our enemy and we wish to keep it that way with further collaboration and compensation for what the rebellion did. We are considering allowing more influence in the P.A.N.L. Campa area due to its historic ties and cultural similarities. We ask that you all allow us to hold a vote in the region as to whether or not the region may gain Artingur influence. Keep in mind that this will not at all affect Campa Simpaticans outside the region, the state already runs completely autonomously while the N.Z. would still remain a sperate part without Artingur influence. We believe this is the best path towards compensating the Artingurans as occupation of Southern Gran Blindaje could lead to even more calls for revolution, allowing them to keep their freedoms should, hopefully, help them readapt to life in Campa Simpatica, and even if not, we should have our military if need be.

Anti-colonial sentiment in Giovannilandian Andolia reaches new high as man is mildly upset about taxes
by Jerry Poole, Head Writer
ANDOLIAVILLE, GIOVANNILAND — Global experts indicate that tensions in Giovannilandian territory in Andolia have reached historic highs after a man expressed minor irritation about Giovannilandilandian taxes.
Flavio Deresse-Lumine, of Andoliaville, was purchasing a bag of milk at the convenience store. He reportedly sighed upon seeing the total ring up. According to witness testimony from the cashier, he then said “Those taxes are adding up, huh?”
This brazen anti-government statement is the latest and most severe action by separatist movements in Giovannilandilandilandian Andolia. As news broke, Giovannilandilandilandilandian state media was very quick to discredit it, claiming that Deresse-Lumine was a “Varanian operative” sent to justify invasion and reiterated that “the residents of Andoliaville are very happy to be Giovannilandilandilandilandilandian.”
Liza Corden, a social media figure openly associated with the Andolian Freedom Fighters, spoke out in Deresse-Lumine’s support. “Flavio is a hero of the Andolian revolution,” she proclaimed. “His act of bravery will inspire other oppressed souls in Giovanniland-occupied territory to cast off their colonial shackles and be free.”
Deresse-Lumine could not be reached for comment. It is assumed he is being held in a Giovannilandilandilandilandilandilandian prison. The Review will deliver updates as they become available.

Prelude
 
February 14th, 1423 - 8:50 AM - The office of Partalí News, Ryxenia.
It was a calm day for the employees of Partalí in Ryxenia, they had just finished the morning radio broadcast, and they prepared to go home, when suddenly the phone at the reception starts ringing.
The receptionist answers; "Hello? You've called the office of Partalí News, how may i help you?"
The voice comming over the phone sounded serious, like if he was in a hurry; "Listen here, i don't think you will be able to comprehend the magnitude of the situation at play... its something this country has never seen before"
The receptionist, confused, asks; "Uh sir, mind letting me know who this call is from first...?"
The response was unexpected; "Im Ryxas Fanil, secretary of the sub-director of the Department of Internal Investigation. This is really important, i need you to difuse the knews right now, the people need to know!"
The receptionist, still confused, asked, "Wait, what news? Sir, we already finished the morning radio broadcast a few minutes ago."
"No, no, you don't get the magnitude of this, this might be the biggest scandal in modern ryxtylopian history, 9 billion ryxes in public funds have gone into private pockets, if not more." Mentions Ryxas with a serious tone.
The receptionist stays quiet for a second before telling Ryxas; "Hold on give me a second ill call my boss..." As he grabs his phone to call his boss, who was congratulating the broadcasters after a solid day.
After a bit the director of Partalí goes downstairs after the call from the receptionist...
 
February 15th, 1423 - 9:00AM - All of the country.
The morning Partalí broadcast had just passed, and thousands, if not millions were shocked; a tsunami of leaked documents had surfaced from the Department of Internal Investigation, a Sub-Department of the Secretary of Internal Affairs dedicated primarily to fighting corruption.
According to the leaks from an "anonymous source" about 9 billion ryxes (about 850 million dollars for reference) in public funds from different goverment departments and the treasury had been stolen by politicians over a span of just 6-8 months.
The fact that DII hadn't revealed that information to the public earlier, and had kept it secret caused an outrage amongst the public and parties opposed to the current goverment.
 
February 15th, 1423 - 9:15AM - Head Office of the Department of Internal Investigation, Ryxenia.
A man rushes into the office of the director of the DII, it was the sub-director of the department: Andreís di Arrvaínga, he barged into the office of his boss, clearly tired of taking the long flight of stairs in a rush.
The Director of the DII: Pincalo Givacha looked at him confused, as he asked; "Andreís, what happened?"
Andreís, catching his breath answered; "Sir... Sir... its been leaked, Partalí leaked the papers this morning..."
Pincalo, confused, stood up and firmly asked; "What papers?"
"The Farryvás papers sir... I have no idea who spilled the Aqui'xel but someone did and, unfortunatley for us, Partalí got their hands on it" Responded Andreís.
Pincalo, stood silent, before quickly hurrying to a filing cabinet in the corner of his office, and saying; "Quickly, search for the documents, and i want you to take them FAR AWAY from this department, ill call Farryvás, time is of the essence, we still have time to conduct damage control before the public goes nuts."
"Yes sir!" Andreís leaves the office, rushing for the archives.
As he took in the situation, Pincalo called his wife, without saying hello, he told her; "Listen here, there's no time, SELL THE HOUSE, get our passports and documents in order, ill find a hotel to stay at after you sell the house, there's no time to explain, but you must hurry"
He hang up, then called the governor of Pestalpa: Farryvás Vizchaca.
"Hello?"
Quickly Pincalo said; "They've been leaked, you need to get ready for a storm..." He then proceded to explain the situation.
 
February 16th, 1423 - 11:00AM - The DII office in Pinilaca, Pestalpa.
A crowd gathered outside of the DII office, it was about 60-70 strong, and they weren't happy, they were holding signs and angrily blocking entrance to the office, after a bit the crowd started to grow, first to 100, then 200 people, by mid-day it was about 350 strong, they had the office staff sieged not letting anyone in or out until further information was released.
"Pincalo became head of the DII, just about a year ago! What has he been doing in this time?!" Uttered a protester, pointing out that most of the high-ranking staff in the DII had only been working for a bit over a year.
Unfortunatley for the protesters by 12:40, police had arrived, in riot gear, they ordered the protesters to disperse and leave the entrance of the DII office, at this point more protesters joined, while the less commited ones complied with the police orders.
Still about 300 protesters remained, and stood in a line paralel of the police line, that started advancing towards them, armored police cars showed up and started spraying the protesters with water cannons in front of the news cameras.
 
February 17th, 1423 - 8:00AM - Head Office of the Department of Internal Investigation, Ryxenia.
Andreís walks into his bosse's office, Pincalo was storing some papers, as he asked; "And so, what did Farryvás say?"
Pincalo sighs and responds; "He is trying to hide the evidence in the Pestalpan DII, and informing others we got involved in this mess, i still have no idea who could've leaked the papers, the police already hosed down protesters in Pinilaca, more protest will sureley follow, the president has also been informed, but his involvement in this hasn't been uncovered yet, we didn't involve the vice president and he while aware of the scandal is still trying to figure out who was involved in it, luckly i got assurances from the president he'll do anything in his power to buy us time to cover up, or he'll try to get us reduced punishments, but ill probably have to flee the country, you should prepare to do the same if the worst comes to be."
Andreís stays silent before saying; "We need to make sure anyone involved in this does everything in their power to conceal documents, burning them would be too suspicious so we need to make sure the files get "lost in all of the bureucracy we have in place" to not attract unwanted attention"
"Good, if you can pass the word to others involved in this, we've yet to contact Gilvaxa, Ralao, and Panvés, and many others."
Andreís responded; "I will, once i get all the papers sorted."
 
February 17th, 1423 - 1:00PM - National Archive, Ryxenia.
The chief of Internal Security, Vachas Gilchabó, the person responsable for managing the police department, was going through files in the National Archive, searching, soon enough the president shows up, along with Pablo Fryvás; the head of the department of infrastructure.
"Any luck yet?" Asked Pablo.
"Im still looking, i found some of the papers, we will need a place to cover up, my boys have already sprayed protesters in Pinilaca" Responds Vachas.
"You must hurry, if you don't our involvements on this situation might be uncovered" Says the president; Edyuardó Etsañó.
"I am aware mister president, the archive is really big, here we also have some stuff from the previous administrations"
"Alright, call us once you're done, ill keep in contact with Pincalo, ill tell him once you're done, you will meet whenever you can, he will deliver the files he found at the DII" Responds the president, before him and Pablo leave the room.
While walking down the hallway the president tells Pablo; "If they don't hurry we may have to ditch them, our reputation is at stake. If the press ask or anyone accuses you, just say we were never a part of this, that they were trying to shift blame towards us"
"Alright mister president" Responds Pablo as they walk for the elevator.
 
February 18th, 1423 - 10:40PM - The DII office in Pinilaca, Pestalpa.
The Governor of the state of Pestalpa, Farryvás Calba had just arrived at the office of the DII in Pinilaca, waiting for him there was Andreís di Arrvaínga as Pincalo hadn't been able to go, they greeted eachother in a corridor behind the reception.
"Hello mister governor, the situation has became quite severe, both you and Pincalo have been implicated in it and investigators are already working on the case"
Farryvás responded; "I am aware of that, we need to make a public statement its been 4 days, we may still be able to calm the public but neither i nor Pincalo should make the statement"
"Agreed, but i don't think im an alternative since im too close to Pincalo, but i think my secretary, Ryxas Fanil should be able to do the job, since while he's linked to me, but he isn't linked to Pincalo or you, i won't give our scheme away but ill persuade him to tell everybody this whole thing has been blown over, and it might just be a small "happens all the time" scandal."
Farryvás thought about him before agreeing to the plan; "Alright, you must tell him to do everything in his power to calm the public, ill arrange for a live broadcast with a news station that is more lenient to us tomorrow."
 
February 19th, 1423 - 9:00AM - Espaci'ia Libre News, Tilipaca, Cantríxa.
"Everybody ready, cuz' we're about to go live!" Asked the director of EPL News, as he they prepared to interview Ryxas about the current scandal.
Ryxas adjusted his tie, he had been told to downplay the situation as much as possible, as the interview started.
"Morning Ladies n' Gentlemen, thanks in advance for watching Espaci'ia Libre News! Im your host for today Hivata Quibalá and today we sure got a special guest... Ryxas Fanil! He volunteered to explain the current scandal going on in the DII for us, so Ryxas, how are you today?"
Ryxas Inhaled before saying; "Im good, many thanks, so what would you like to hear from me?"
"First of all, is all of this true? Have 9+ billion ryxes really been embezzeled and stolen?"
Ryxas stays silent, he knew the truth but had been instructed to hide it, so he decided to be as vague as possible with his answers as he answered; "Maybe, 9 billion might be a bit inflated but then again i don't have enough info to confirm or discard that ammount."
"Alright, do you know or have an idea of anyone that could've been involved in the scandal?"
Again after a second of wait Ryxas responds; "According to the leaks, Farryvás, governor of Pestalpa and Pincalo, head of the DII have been involved, but im not sure about this, like i said theese leaks could be overblowing the situation, but this doesn't exclude theese figures from suspicion"
"Alright, finally before i move into less important stuff, how long do you think this has been going for?"
Ryxas responded; "Im not exactly sure, but it has been going for probably more than 4 months, why this wasn't found out earlier im not sure, maybe our system is too inefficient, but i don't really know what would be worse, that more money has been embezzeled in such a short time or that it has been hidden from the public for a longer period of time"
This interview instead of resolving the issue and calming down the public would have the opposite effect, just as Ryxas intended, soon this scandal would blow over even more.
 

Trouble Starts...
 
February 20th, 1423 - 11:00AM - Head Office of the Department of Internal Investigation, Ryxenia.
Andreís walks down a hallway headed for Pincalo's office in the building, while he walks he gets his mobile phone and calls, Ryxas, he wasn't happy with the answers given in the interview last night, the public was getting angry, the first mass-scale protests had already been organized for later in the day.
Ryxas answeres the phone, and Andreís responds; "You idiot! i told you what to do and you fumbled it!"
Ryxas, after a second surprised, answers; "Sir im sorry, you weren't clear enough and well i told them the information i had available to me."
"You're an Idiot! I told you to try tone it down, but you somehow kept it the same!" Shouts Andreís
"Calm down! This situation should be undergoing investigation, and that's what i told to try the people to calm down while we find things out."
At this Andreís, furious, hangs up without saying a word, and continues walking to Pincalo's office, arriving there some seconds after he hang up on Ryxas.
"The situation on the media front got worse, Ryxas was a _______ idiot, he ignored the instructions we gave him!"
Pincalo answers; "Im aware, and recovering public trust will be impossible at this point, we must soften the impact by getting rid of evidence, we must do it DISCRETLEY, otherwise it will be too suspicious to just burn papers."
"Agreed, we must hide them like we stated before, but where? We'll have to do it ourselves since at this point im unsure who we could trust."
"Then we'll have to do it ourselves, if we get caught we're screwed, we will get our hands dirty in this so i want you to make sure that doesn't happen, ill hide the files in a place that won't be found out."
"Alright sir" Responds Andreís; "Ill keep an eye on the public and how the situation unfolds."
 
 

Unrest in the Streets
 
February 21rst, 1423 - 9:00AM-11:00PM - Givas Square, Pinilaca, Pestalpa.
By this point the news had spread all over the nation and two days after the interview the first major protest happened, in Givas square right in the center of Pinilaca, in Pestalpa, as mostly working class people gathered to protest at the lack of details given by the goverment.
"What do we want?!" Shouts someone with a megaphone.
"We want to know!" The crowd answers.
Again the leader shouts; "What do we want?!"
And the crowd again answers; "We want to know!"
Opposition parties to the current administration were also present at rallies, this rally in Givas square had reached already about 1,500 people, the police had been called in but only to controll the crowd, they didn't try to disperse the crowd and despite the tense atmosphere no violence errupted.
The protest peacefully ended by 11:00PM as most protesters headed home, agreeing to meet up the next day.
 
February 21rst, 1423 - 11:00AM-1:00AM - Vygás Avenue, Vynitiná, Yilanit.
The protest in Vygás Avenue in Yilanit was the biggest protest of the day, reaching probably about 2,500-3,000 protesters, they partially blocked acces to the Avenue and by extension the center of Vynitiná, causing a massive traffic jam from roughly 1:00PM-8:00PM.
The chant: "What do we want?!" "We want to know!" Had already spread there from Pinilaca.
The police response here was also similar, as the police had orders not to provoke the protesters while a solution to the situation was searched for, this didn't stop small scale fights from happening but most people and officers behaved themselves avoiding a riot.
Again by night time the protesters mostly left home, with more protests and demonstrations scheduled for tomorrow.
 
February 21rst, 1423 - 12:00PM-8:00PM - Mynás Municipal Palace, Mynás, Cantríxa.
The last large scale demonstration of the day started at 12:00PM in the town of Mynás in Cantríxa, and was probably the most tense of the demonstrations during that day with a potential firefight between armed elements of the police, and a paramilitary group, the Frenté di Lybiración dil Centro (FLC) almost breaking out.
The FLC was founded about 5 decades ago, during a dictatorship in Ryxtylopia, and back then it fought against goverment forces, it being a leftist insurgent group. After the end of the Ryxtylopian dictatorhip in the 1390's it stood down from armed conflict with the goverment but remained a paramilitary group that advocated for change in the now democratic Ryxtylopia.
Many FLC members were present at the Mynás protest, armed and thus armed police were called to contain the demonstration with a fierce standoff happening between the police on one side and demonstrators and FLC members on the other.
In the end no violence occured and the protest died down by 8:00PM but the standoff was broadcast live by several news sources for the nation to watch, further fueling unrest.
 
 

The House of Cards Shakes
 
February 22nd, 1423 - 10:00PM - Natal Hotel, Pinilaca, Pestalpa.
During the morning of the 22nd many figures hurriedly arrive to the Natal hotel in Pinilaca, part of the hotel had been rented for the occasion, most of these figures had discretely arrived by 10:00PM as the meeting started.
While Pincalo, wasn't there himself, Andreís had taken up the spot, and taken Ryxas with him to the meeting, in the meeting there was also Vachas, and some other security figures.
Joined to them some new faces: Lipaldi Fírrias, head of the " '22 program" a program started by the Department of Finances and endorsed by the president to bolster the manufacturing industry in Ryxtylopia. Also present was Marco Guivaldi, the man responsable for allocating funds from the Department of Finances to public proyects.
Also "inexplicably" at the meeting there was Facha Nivaldí  the head of "Carbanera" a mining company with most of their mines located in Cantríxa, and also present, head of another mining company present at the meeting: Pablo Darrias, head of the Mynas Corporation, again another mining company with most of their mines located in Cantríxa.
In total there were about 25 people present, many part of either goverment departments or mining conglomerates.
Since Pincalo was absent Andreís starts the meeting saying; “I think you all know that the situation we find ourselves in is, well, not ideal”
“I'm aware of that” Responds Nivaldí.
“Honestly i'm still unsure how this got out to the public, Andreís, may you explain?! I was taking care of every single detail in Finances to not get busted and then you idiots in the DII spilled the can!” Answers Guivaldi.
Andreís quickly answers; “Now, now, let’s not get to shouting, we’re here to conduct damage control, the president’s involvement hasn’t been found out yet but could at any moment, and at this point i'm unsure who we can and cannot trust anymore.”
After that Vachas interrupts; “The public situation is currently out of control, but could soon start spiraling out of it, if you’re going to come up with a solution you should hurry”
Andreís answers; “Okay, so if this me-”
“I don’t believe this can be covered, you were too careless and went too far” Interrupts Darrias
“Darrias hold on you have to list-” Tries to say Andreís before once again being interrupted.
“No! Have you seen the situation here in Mynas?! Of course you haven’t, these people will soon become rioters!” Again interrupts Darrias.
“Darrias! Calm down i have the pol-”
“Ill have to agree with Darrias, this will collapse soon”
“Listen to me everybody!”
“Come on Darrias, don’t you think your exaggera-”
“No the-”
“I have many doubts!”
“EVERYBODY LI-”
The meeting soon descends into incoherent arguments, with Ryxas being relatively quiet throughout the whole ordeal.
 
February 24th, 1423 - 6:00AM - National Archive, Ryxenia.
The day had just started, the protester hadn’t shown up yet, so 2 days after the meeting at the Natal hotel, Andreís traveled again, this time to see the president, at the National Archive.
He enters through the large wooden door of the old building, before heading up some stairs, the president was set to meet him in a small library containing old records on the second floor, after making his way up the stairs, he walks through a hall and reaches the room.
“Good day Mr. President” Says Andreís as he opens the door to the room.
“Oh, you’ve arrived” Answered the president, leaving a newspaper he was reading on a table.
After a quick handshake, the president asks; “So, may you tell me how the meeting on the 22nd went?”
“Poorly to say the least, nobody came up with a good solution to this mess”
“That’s unfortunate, you must think of something to do, before this collapses, i'll lead you to the archive, if you’re able i want you to make a list of all the people involved in this, so we can analyze each one’s situation, maybe that way we can make a plan so if someone gets caught, the damage to the rest is minimized.”
“Just make sure no connection is made to the upper levels of government.” Says the president as he heads to the archive.
“Alright” Answers Andreís as they both head out the hallway.

New Revelations
 
May 4th, 1423 - 7:20 AM - The office of Partalí News, Ryxenia.
It had been about a month and a half since the Farryvas-Pincalo Debacle had started, and with silence from the federal goverment and independent investigations having grinded to a halt after all evidence dried up, it seemed for the people involved in the situation, the mess was finally over, as the people had mostly calmed down, at least on the streets, Ryxtylopian social media was still a mess, opposition parties to the current goverment still moaning at the fact the case hadn't been resolved, especially when it could involve figures as high in rank as state governors and even the president.
This "peace" would abruptly end when the left-wing Partalí News, never wanting to miss an opportunity to criticize the goverment's desicions opened their morning broadcast with new information regarding the scandle, the figure of the ammount stolen was still pretty vague. But during the morning broadcast Partalí openly accused the Pestalpan governor: Farryvás Vizchaca of embezzlement, presenting that over the past years one of his companies had seen "increased activity".
This single broadcast made Farryvás the centre of attention, and he was also accused of potentially interviening in DII operations in Pestalpa, as people had started to notice inconsistencies in the way documents were stored, with many having gone missing in the last two months.
So as eyes turned to the Pestalpan goverment and demonstrations rekindled the goverment figures who had thought they had escaped intact from a huge fiasco were back in the spotlight, especially Farryvás who now had to be accompanied by a police escort considering the danger to him was at an all time high.
This trapped Pincalo in a difficult spot since he had a close relation with Farryvás but now he had to either ditch him or risk the public's anger, if he ditched him and opened an investigation, he could risk Farryvás leaking everything to save himself and draw attention elsewhere, but if he didn't do anything the public would inmediatley draw a connection. The third option was telling Farryvás that they would open "investigaiton" but that would only delay the inevitable as eventually without any results from the investigation, the public would either get very angry or figure out the relation between Farryvás and Pincalo.
 
 
May 5th, 1423 - 9:00 PM - The DII office in Pinilaca, Pestalpa.
Pincalo had once again returned to the DII office in Pinilaca, walked through part of the archive phone firmly next to his ear as he was in a call with Farryvás deciding what to do, while Farryvás still thought the situation could be salvaged Pincalo thought otherwise;
"No Farryvás! If we take no action it will be blatantly obvious what's going on and both you and me will find ourselves linched, behind bars or worse!" Says Pincalo.
"Ugh okay, then what do you propose? Do i have to leave the country?!" Responds Farryvás.
"In total honesty probably, a lot of us could end up somewhere else, but for that we must delay, ill select some DII staff who are in on this to open an investigation into you, you get what i mean right?"
"I do."
"That will give us more time to come with another potential solution, or drop out if the worst comes to be."
"Ive already packed up, im ready to go if its necessary."
"Good to see you're planning ahead, whatever you do, don't do anything to arouse the public's anger, if any further leaks come out, it will be time to get out of this mess."
"Understood, unforunatley i have to conviene with the pestalpan state assembly tomorrow, remember?"
"Oh crap, right... in that case avoid touching the topic for as long as possible and if you get to it try to de-rail the conversation to something else."
"Alright, well ill hope for the best, we should start informing the rest soon."
"Ill take care of it don't worry, hope you have a nice evening."
Pincalo hung up, he knew all of that would just buy time and he was divided on if he should drop out and flee somewhere else or trying to save his allies and fortune in Ryxtylopia, something to him was clear tho, he was thinking on borrowed time.

The South Hallessekratamian War
After the Great Nuran War and the second Kalmachian Civil War in 1345-1347, tensions between Garahun and Kalmach were at an all-time high. During the civil war, the Anti-Imperialist government reluctantly ceded the provinces of South Hallessekratamia, Brahair, and Western Krymóst to Garahun. This was because of the Garahunnic threat of an all-out invasion of Hallassekratamia during the second civil war.
The prince-bishop oppressed the local Kratans of his newly acquired lands, but political resistance persisted. On the 6th of October 1419, the prince-bishop ordered the murder of several political figures and Kratan resistance members who had gathered in Anschenhof, which ended the organised resistance in South Hallessekratamia and Brahair. The 6th of October 1399 became known as the Red Night of Anschenhof. 
The remaining resistance fighters called for Kalmachian aid. 
Culminating factors of political murder by Garahun, the public support to reconquer their lost lands, and the suppression of their fellow brethren, caused the Kalmachian government to secretly plan a direct invasion of the country, with the aims of liberating the former Kalmachian territories of West Krymóst, and the entire states of South Hallessekratamia, and Brahair. The original plan had been to slowly increase resistance in the area, with hopes of setting up a puppet state that would later vote for re-unification, but with such a golden opportunity, the oligarchs pressured the president into using the assassinations as an excuse citing “blatant racial genocide, and discriminatory suppression of human rights”.
On the morning of the 20th of April 1420, the Kalmachian government gave a long statement on international state television that they would be entering Garahun for the purpose of liberating the Kalmachian majority in their former territories mentioned above.
In late April 1420, Kalmachian forces bombed the border of Garahun before entering South Hallessakratamia. The border guards of Garahun stood no chance and were completely overrun by the ground troops of the Kalmachian army. The Garahunnic navy was already mobilised and sailed to the strait of Brachiberg, where they pushed back the Kalmachian ships. 
The Kalmachian land army conquered South Hallessekratamia within half a year, with minor resistance in the region being the deciding factor. The mostly Kratan, and by extension, Kalmash peoples of Southern Hallessekratamia received the Kalmachian army gracefully in Anschenhof. The Kalmachians of Anschenhof made it a holiday within the city, known as “Frihetschthagh” in Kalmash, or “Freedom-day” in common. 
However, as the Kalmachians pushed slightly into majority Garahunnic territory, resistance slowly increased. It was for the Kalmachian army imperative that they captured the key city of Ilragon, as it was a supply area key to holding on to the long front line of guerilla warfare that the Kalmachians saw themselves in.
After conquering West Krymóst in November of 1420, the Kalmachians met heavy resistance at Udôn; a city split by the Marahor River. They conquered the west side, home to poor residents of primarily Kratan ethnicity. However, the Garahunnians destroyed the bridges on the river, and a stalemate ensued in the city. Garahunnic ships patrolled the river and forced the Kalmachians to dig in.
After a stand-still between the start of 1421 and late 1422, Kalmachian tanks rolled into the small city Ilragon, where the now battle-hardened Garahunnic forces had entrenched themselves and prepared anti-tank weaponry. After a two-day struggle leading to 15000 Kalmach and 7000 Garahunnic casualties, the Kalmachians took the city. The Garahunnians moved back to a second stronger line of defense. 
Since this, another stalemate has persisted. 
Kalmachian plans for the next stage of the war are primarily focused on occupying the rest of the Kratan and Oodwanese territories. As there’s still an area the size of Osto in the south that has yet to be liberated.
The Garahunnian navy is planning an invasion of the Kalmachian island of Osto, but reconsiderations of the idea are popping up, as the island is heavily garrisoned.

Introduction
The Prince-Bishopric of Garahun is a zealous state proud of its great navy. The people follow the Iusmarite faith, and are led by a prince-bishop, elected by the Council of Illegon upon the previous Bishops death. The bishop holds almost complete control over the country but may be deposed by the Council of Illegon if it so pleases. Recently, however, laws making the calling together of the council difficult have been passed. Garahun has a population of almost 12.000.000 people, and the population is heavily militarized. The navy is led by the Synod of Udôn, who often holds sway over the prince-bishop. Garahun has naval bases around Udôn, and on the islands in the Salt Sea.

02/03/1423
The Kalmachian Government
          
Prime Minister Willsen Hessen is seen in an office, with a big Kalmachian flag in the background.
"As the war keeps drawing on, we feel that we need to publish a statement about what is currently happening in Kalmach and in Garahun. Many have expressed concern about the invasion, and what it entailed, as we had remained secretive about the plan up until its execution. We will clear some stuff up."
The prime minister shuffles in his papers a bit.
"We did not launch this war in order to make land grabs but believe that the Garahunnic government is incapable of properly protecting its citizens. The execution of peaceful protesters in Southern Hallessekratamia is proof enough of this. Before the invasion, we even tried to give a secret ultimatum, however, the Garahunnic did not listen. We never received an answer from any official representing Garahun, so we decided to launch the invasion.
After the second Kalmachian civil war, they forced Kalmachians out of their cities in order to put in their own Garahunnic peoples and replace them. The ultimatum of 1345 was a blatant attempt by Garahun to expand their empire. Taking advantage of a weakened Kalmach during it's infighting is the worst of the worst one can do.
Some have shown concern about the potential for human rights violations in the war. We will ensure that doesn't happen. We promise the protection of every single ethnicity in the area we occupy, in contrast to the Garahunnic. From the Oodwanese to the Garahunnic, we will treat them all the same as citizens of Kalmach. We also want to announce that we have no intention of controlling any ethnically garahunnic land. The eastern push was simply something that was needed in order to maintain the frontline. It was purely strategic, and we have no plans to advance in the east. However, we will continue to do whatever is necessary in order to protect the Kratans and the Oodwanese in the south.
We wish for peace, but we also wish for change. Therefore, The United Nations of Kalmach has demands. The Garahunnic has 2 options. One is to help us set up an independent state in the areas compromising the ethnically Kalmash and Oodwanese areas, with minor territorial concessions in Southern Hallessekratamia. Another is to let Kalmach have complete control over the ethnically Kratan areas of Garahun. We have had enough of the barbaric oppression of all the ethnic groups of the Garahunnic Prince-Bishophric."
The Prime Minister looks up from his papers and into the camera.
"Lat gudd váre met ós. Held kjunn till Kálmach"
