    Zou Liqin, Jiang Yunru & Zhong Dongmei are students at Anzhou Medical University. They share a flat in Yantai City, 20 minutes away from their university by subway. Zou and Jiang are at home.
    Liqin: "Hey, Yunru. Are we ordering takeout tonight?"
    Yunru: "Why? We have food at home."
    Liqin: "It's Sekiya's big game against Cambria, you don't think this is a special occasion?"
    Yunru: "Who cares? We've already made it out of the group stages... Plus, everyone's going to be ordering takeout tonight..."
    Liqin: "That's true... but we should still watch it! Maybe we can ask Dongmei to get something on her way home..."
    Yunru: Sighs "Okay, we can watch it. I was hoping on watching comet garden, but I suppose I can do that another night".
    Liqin: Putting his Sekiya Football scarf on "Nice! I'll get some drinks out of the fridge, you message Dongmei."
    Yunru: Pulling out his phone "Sure, sure. By the way, we need to finish that game of Cellars and Fellas."
    Liqin: Taking several sodas out of the fridge "Yeah... I'm not feeling too great about that game right now..."
    Yunru: Typing on his phone "Why? We got so far into it... is it because you failed that saving throw?"
    Liqin: "Honestly? Yeah... The Sorcerer fella isn't as fun as I thought it would be, I kind of want to swap to the warlock fella."
    Yunru: "Fair enough, maybe we can work something out, but it would be good to finish the campaign... we're 6 hours into that campaign and Dongmei spent a lot of time on the story. Plus, we haven't even cleared out the second cellar yet!"
    Liqin: "I suppose. Maybe we can play after the football game!"
    Yunru: "Sounds good! By the way, Dongmei replied, she's at Huangjin down the road getting some snacks and instant rice."
    Liqin: "Instant rice! That's barely a takeaway... Oh well, I'll accept it. Could you ask her to get some eggs too?"
    Yunru: "Sure... I'll ask her now..."

    Cellars and Fellas is a popular roleplaying tabletop game in Esferos. 
    Seven minutes later, Dongmei walks through the door. The game starts in 10 minutes.
    Dongmei: "Oh. My. God. I hate the subway when it's busy..."
    Liqin: "Welcome home! Why was it busy?"
    Dongmei: "Everyone's going to the Anzhou Cloud stadium to watch it on the big screen..."
    Yunru: "My Goodness... I can't imagine being in a stadium that big... with all those people..." He shivers.
    Liqin: "I think it would be cool!"
    Yunru: "Good for you..."
    Dongmei: Putting the food away "Hey, did anyone boil the water?"
    Yunru & Liqin look at each other with a guilty expression.
    Yunru & Liqin: "Uhhhh...no..."
    Dongmei: Sighs "Trust you men to do anything right..." She jokes.
    Yunru & Liqin: "Sorry..."
    Dongmei: "Don't worry, I'll get it going. Yunru, do you want an egg with yours?" 
    Yunru: "No thanks..."
    Liqin: "What about me?"
    Dongmei: "Liqin, we have lived together for 2 years... I already know how you like your rice".
    Liqin: "You're amazing... hey, come watch, Sekiya is about to walk on!"
    Yunru: "I wonder who's going to win..."

    Steady and Secure
     
    The Ryxtylopia-Overthinkers match was the most intense one yet, probably in all the world cup, while it ended in a draw it saw several intense moments, as the hosts and the leaders of the group clashed, in the end the match ended with a draw.
    The match started with Ryxtylopia kicking off, and playing rather cautiously at the start, no advances were made as posession was kept in the first 3 minutes before loosing the ball.
    In the 15th minute Milatacha slide tackled one of the OT players, being too uncautious he earned himself a yellow card conceding a free kick for OT, whoose team was able to take advantage of the free kick and getting the ball into the Box, where an attempt towards goal was made, however, Rivas got and blocked the attempt (An attempt Arvaldí would've probably not been able to block due to the heading) allowing the defense to clear the ball.
    For the 24th minute Ryxtylopia made their first shot towards goal, after Farris passed to Fydó around 3/4 of the field, Fydó however got stuck in OT's defense allowing more players to advance and once he attempted to cross to Vilaní the ball was intercepted.
    In the 33rd minute Ryxtylopia managed another attempt at goal, however Overthinkers team was adapted towards playing defensivley making the Ryxtylopian's team strategy of counter-attacking sorta akward to carry out, and in something that became a common occurance in this match OT's defense absorbed the attack.
    Finally in the first time in the 40th minute Ryxtylopia made a final attempt at goal, this time a cross from Arvaléz that Vilaní actually headed... into the post, the ball bounced off harmlessly and it was cleared, after another fight for possetion in and around the midfield, the ref blew the whilstle with the score still 0-0.
    During the break, a brief chant battle happened in the stands between the Ryxtylopians and the Overthinkers, both separated into zones by a fence, as both fans chanted about how one or the other was better, some throwing stuff over the fence, having an advantage in numbers the Ryxtylopian chants were more audible however this moment was still something pretty funny that happened during HT.
    However it was now time for the second time to commence, it was more intense than the first, with the "battle for the midfield" in full swing, both sides gaining and loosing possetion, this continued for some time.
    Ryxtylopia made a shot on goal on the 67th minute but it was deflected by OT's GK, and the match continued on as normal, however this wouldn't last long.
    In the 70th minute, Ryxtylopia made another attack, however they lost possetion in the box, and here the Ovethinkers team was able to pull a really successful counter attack, passing the ball all the way into Ryxtylopia's box, were when Vilaña tried clearing it he slipped and Arvaldí's gloves went short of the ball, which landed in the net making the score 1-0 in favor of Overthinkers.
     

     
    With the crowd going silent, OT's team felt much safer with the one nil lead, and began to be slightly less defensive searching for another goal, however in the 74th minute they would miss a chance as it went over the top post.
    Ryxtylopia would respond not long after, when Farris got into the box, and shot, having his attempt blocked and OT's defense pushed back, however it was here when substitute Terado Armandí, (who had taken Vilanís position) retook possetion and was left alone against OT's GK, successfully sending the ball into the net to a sea of celebration.
    After this both sides went defensive as the match ended in a 1-1 draw.

    When Clarkson, Hammond and May all convened with the rest of The Genesis, they spent an idle time driving about. Hammond then told the other two to go away...
    Jokichi Y.: Hey! I brought that camera you asked for.
    Lyubomyr D.: Just put it over there, yeah?
    Enrico P.: Yes. The others will sort it out.
    Rashad G.: Hey, you need any help?
    Ozen I.: That won't be necessary.
    Kanako Y.: Let's hurry up here, we don't exactly have time to be lazing about.
    Nia H.: This feels like a scene from an anime.
    [Reimu yawns excessively, refusing to move from the strenuous activity of drinking sake on the floor with a glorified pillow for comfort]
    Reimu H.: Do I have to? This is hardly important.
    Clarkov S.: ...Really?
    Rashad G.: You're not exempt from this, Reimu.
    Yuri M.: Look over here. Now would you come and help please?
    [Reimu reluctantly gets up and helps the others set up the equipment, Hammond then enters the room.]
    R. Hammond: Thanks guys. You've been a real help today.
    Rashad G.: No problem, Richard. You said you wanted it done quickly.
    R. Hammond: Yeah, I got something I want to show.
    Seiko S.: Well, let's clear the area and let Richard get to it.
    [Hammond prepares to address the viewers tuning in to the live session while the others leave the room.]
    Seiko S.: Hey, did you know Richard always ad-libs his videos?
    Naho S.: I think we all knew that. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to be looking for someone.
    Info-C.: Still searching for Kou, I see.
    Naho S.: Who else? Lain, make sure Seiko doesn't follow me. I'm not sure I can bear her.
    Lain V.: Yeah, no problem.
    [Lain grabs Seiko by the arm and drags her along with him, Naho diverts in search of her mentor and Hammond turns on the camera to begin filming.]
    R. Hammond: Hello. This is rather impromptu from me, but you'll soon see why. Now, I'm known to have a lot of people back in Hertfordshire & Jammbo... mainly teenage girls and a few teenage boys... that think I'm the most handsome person this side of Oliver.
    J. May: Oliver...!
    [May holds back laughter in the distance.]
    R. Hammond: Ignore that, it's just a spaniel. Anyway, I was reading some of those comments underneath the videos of us three and thought to myself, 'what if anyone wants to pretend to be us'. Weird thought, I know, but to solve that I came up with this.
    [Hammond holds up a shoddy title card.]



    [Because James is slow and lost, we couldn't get his part done in time. Sorry. - Richard Hammond]
    R. Hammond: Hang on, I've just received word that The Genesis were beaten 2-1 by Candelu and because of that we are now fifth in our group.
    [Clarkson enters the room from behind Hammond.]
    J. Clarkson: It gets worse, I'm afraid. We're up against Nieubasria next.
    R. Hammond: We may be screwed... anyway, have you managed to get a hold of James?
    J. Clarkson: Sadly, I couldn't tell where James had gone, because he's an imbecile.
    [Clarkson shows Hammond a photo of James having become lost in a very strange area of Ryxtylopia.]
    Clarkson told Hammond about Gwyn's good performances in the central midfield position that Hammond would be taking back starting with the upcoming match. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to everyone...
    Tsar Mecislavs I: Right then. I'm ready. Are you all ready to go?
    Svetoslav S.: We're ready and waiting for the all clear.
    Tsar Mecislavs I: Good job. I know I can count on all of you.
    Larysa O.: We'll scan any potential threats on our journey. If we are breached, you already know how to fight.
    Tsar Mecislavs I: You know me well. I didn't just spend my time as an Esferiad athlete doing my chosen sports after all. A good monarch is always prepared. Now then, time to enter the slums. Let's see what's really going on here.
    [Somewhere not far from where the Tsar is, May is only just realising that he's lost. Not for the first time this trip.]
    J. May: Erm... chaps....

    "Mr. President," National Security Adviser Marian Proudfoot broke the silence when Red Palace Chief of Staff Jed Gill asked if there were no more topics to be discussed after finishing the last item presented in Other Matters as discussed at the start of the meeting.
    It was the time of the month when Luke Salazar, the President of the Federal Republic, had his Cabinet Cluster Meeting.
    "Not now, Marian," Gill interjected.
    Salazar only had to look at the far left of the table where Proudfoot was seated and to Gill at the right of Vice President Mel Gaspar (the VP is sitting next to the President's right side) and back to Proudfoot, which urged the former to speak.
    She cleared her throat before continuing.
    "Mr. President, it is the National Security Council's Secretariat's opinion that we should be eagerly monitoring the 'civil unrest' in Ryxtylopia with the Football World Cup happening."
    Salazar looked to his left, where the Military Affairs Secretary Carlo Charlton was sitting, and started, "Foreign Affairs is under your cluster, right?"
    "Yes, Mr. President," Charlton replied. Salazar nodded upwards, urging him to talk.
    "Ah, yes, Mr. President," Charlton continued, "it was discussed in our previous meeting in the Security, Justice, and Peace Cluster early this month, but the members decided not to apprise you yet unless we have an actual action plan that we can present to you. Right now, we're just implementing need-to-act protocols only."
    "I want the facts on my table in an hour, Carl," Salazar instructed Charlton before facing Proudfoot again, "you should also give me a briefer from your perspective, Marian. Though what do you recommend?"
    "Our assets in Ryxtylopia will continue monitoring the riots. If something worsens, I call Carlo and initiate the plan depending on where our players are by the time our plan commences. I have already submitted my recommendations on what to do when they are not playing any matches with contingencies when they are in the hotel or if one or two players or staff are not with the team, when they are transiting to or from the game, or when they are currently playing," Proudfoot replied.
    "Are the recommendations plausible?" Salazar asked Charlton.
    "We can work around the plans, Sir," Charlton replied.
    "Very good. Current logistics?" Salazar asked again.
    "A platoon of inactive graduates of the Executive Protection Course not detailed in the Presidential Security Service is currently in Ryxtylopia providing cover, Mr. President," Charlton replied. "They are equipped with only our military-issue handgun with four extra clips in their presence at all times. Their operational command and control are under the Headquarters and Headquarters Services Battalion, under Major John Read, of the Adaikesian brigade we sent to the Matixarrati Base. Once we receive confirmation from Marian, two platoons will push towards urban Ryxtylopia and implement the necessary action plan."
    "Mr. President," Gill interrupted, "is the plan more of an overkill? The presence of a foreign military alone, not only in any urban area, but what if they are playing in Ryxenia?"
    "Well, we hope that the riots do not escalate," Proudfoot raised her voice a little.
    "I'll talk to Edyuardó [Etsañó, the Ryxtylopian President]," Salazar raised his index finger and massaged his temples, "but the Union needs to know about this."
    "I'll talk to Anne [Duncan, the Adaikesian Foreign Affairs Secretary], Luke," Gaspar inserted, "We'll let her talk to her counterparts in Teralyon and Cambria."

    Ardala Khanate
    An article from the Lavender Encyclopedia | Choose a different language

    The Ardala Khanate's extent during its peak in 650 AF.
    Status: Khanate
    Capital: Altan-qota (Golden City)
    Common Languages: Ardalan, Ulergen, Emunian, Beremean and others
    Demonym: Ardalan
    Area: circa 195,000 km² (650 AF)
    Population: est. 3 million (650 AF)
    The Ardala Khanate (Ardalan: ᠠᠷᠠᠳᠠᠯᠠᠢ ᠬᠠᠨᠲᠠ ᠤᠯᠤᠰ, aradalai khaant ulus; Giovannese: Kanato de Ardala) was a medieval state in northern Andolia that existed from 283 to 712 AF. Founded after a civil war that brought down its predecessor, the Ulerge Khanate, this polity achieved a never seen before size for a country in the region, bringing many different peoples under its control during its centuries-long history. Starting from the Ardalan homeland in modern-day northeastern Giovandolia, the khanate conquered its southern Ulerge neighbors during the civil war with the help of the ancient Bereme people to the west, after crafting an alliance with the latter.
    The khanate achieved its peak in the 5th to 7th centuries AF, after expanding to the other side of the large Andolian mountain chain and establishing contact with the Emüne people who became a tributary, as well as performing a significant territorial expansion to the east of the Nia River, annexing lands in modern western Fhaengshia. In the 8th century AF, amid a succession war, the khanate was eventually annexed by the rising Giovannian Empire.
    Background & Rise
    The Ardala and Ulerge people share an origin, both being descendants of the Northern Boreandolian people that were formerly united but eventually separated under foreign domination. After their independence, both peoples started building their own cities and polities, separated by the large Boriorto Mountains, and eventually reestablishing contact following some centuries.
    The Ulerge people eventually united under a single Khanate in the 1st century BF and soon expanded northwards to annex the Ardalan Confederation, a league of city-states. This polity would also incorporate the Bereme people to the west soon after, but owing to its khans' authoritarianism and mismanagement of the military, turmoil soon started in the 3rd century AF. Both the Ardala and Bereme people rose up to start a civil war, and soon after forged an alliance to help each other, in which the Ardala would form a khanate of their own and the Bereme would enjoy more autonomy.
    The alliance won the civil war in 283 AF, the date the Ardala Khanate was founded, and the alliance's leader Erdene (ruled 283-312 AF) became its first khan. By 301 AF, it also unified the Bereme remnants that were opposed to the alliance and wanted to stay independent, and for the remainder of his rule Erdeni Khan focused on stabilizing the newly-founded state. Subsequent rulers, such as Jargal Khan (ruled 312-330 AF) and Mandakh Khan (ruled 355-363 AF), also enacted important policies to improve the inhabitants' quality of life and strengthen the military.
    Expansion & Peak
    Starting from the reign of Tsinua Khan (ruled 397-429 AF), the Ardala Khanate started to expand beyond its initial lands. To the west, expansion reached the border now known as the modern northwestern border of Giovandolia, and to the south, the vast mountains were crossed during the rule of Tsinua's son Ilalta Khan (ruled 429-444 AF). In 456 AF during the reign of Aldar Khan (ruled 449-470 AF), the Emüne people were made a tributary of the Ardala Khanate, and many of their upper classes were enlisted as advisors to the khans due to their reputation as skilled people.
    During the 6th century the khanate reached its maximum territorial extent. The longest reigning ruler Ulaghan Khan (ruled 521-565 AF), followed by his younger brother Naran Khan (ruled 565-581 AF), conducted the great expansion to the east, beyond the Nia River that marks parts of the modern Giovanniland-Fhaengshia border. These lands were then added to the khanate, which by then had achieved regional fame among other peoples. Trade with neighboring peoples was extensive, and in the 7th century the newly-unified Giovannese also started conducting trade. Rulers of this century decided to maintain the current territory and focus on increasing the khanate's wealth and strength, such as the notable Elbeg Khan (ruled 623-645 AF) and Otsir Khan (ruled 653-679 AF).
    Fall
    After Otsir Khan's death, his son Uyan Khan ascended to the throne, however as time passed he became unpopular and unable to manage the khanate very well. This sparked tensions among the ruling family, with various branches starting plans to revolt and establish their own khanates in various parts of the country. Furthermore, the Giovannian Empire played a part in increasing tensions by further pitting these different sides against each other. After Uyan's assassination in 687 AF, other khans tried to improve the situation but were unsuccessful, and the last khan Delger was assassinated in 712 AF, dividing the empire into smaller states named after their initial rulers. These realms lived on for a few more decades before being annexed into the Giovannian Empire.

    A candeluian Win in Ryxtylopia, and football fans from all over Candelù are still celebrating.

    And for today's sport's section, we have the results of yesterday's match against Hertfordshire and Jammbo!

    We'll let our correspondent give you the results and the requested informations for the next match, line is all yours Gabri! Don't waste the second chance we're giving you.

    "Hello! I'm Gabri and i'm speaking directly from the slums of Ry-"

    You were told to avoid 1 thing, the slums. Why're you there Gabri!? We have a public, they want the news and we have to give them the results!

    "Not my fault Nico! I heared some Zoranian reporter talking about some good taco stands here!"

    You risked your life (and the honour to report very good news) to try some taco from the slums of Ryxtylopia!? 

    "Yeah, they're a solid 8 out of ten!"

    We were instructed to never send reporters there... just go back to the news.

    "Going back to my Report! Candeluian players managed to score 2 goals against H&J! The stadium where candeluians sat started to RRRRRRUMBLE when the final whistle was heared! It was officialy, 2-1 for Candelù, meaning our first national win!"

    That's amazing Gabri, a real milestone not only for the team, but for all the fans around the nation!
    Now, why don't you tell us about the next match?

    "Yeah, We'll be going against the Team of Saint Mark, you know, the nation from Aura?"

    Yes, i know. How were they ranked last year? And how are they doing so far?

    "Well! Last year they were ranked 21st, so not too high! Though so far they're playing very well, having won 1 game, and ended the other game with a draw."

    Alright, so what's the feeling there? You and the fans think that Candelù can win?

    "I mean, Probably! We obviously hope that, and it might be a possibility!"

    Good Gabri, that's enough for today, now, focus on getting out of the slums.

    "Oooooh! there're more taco shops here! and they're so cheap!"

    No, No. Out.

    "-No Answer-"

    ...And that's all for sports today! Don't worry about Gabri, we'll send someone to search him...
    We From Tiveronia 'i Zuja wish you a goodnight! And remember, keep fanning, football fans!









    Lunga Vià al 'emperator!
