The ongoing battle has scarred most of the infrastructure surrounding the Imperial Palace. Infighting has broken out in the entire country, lords against lords, brothers against brothers. For the last few days, Imperial Princess Lyneth has been correct on her assumptions.The lords of the provinces were divided on how to deal with the ongoing coup. Some have pledge unwavering allegiance to the Emperor, like that of the Northerners. Some have decided to break away from the Empire and even going as far as declaring independence, like that of the South. The Easterners decided to stay away from the conflict and solely protect their land, it seems the lord here is planning to join whoever is the victor of this armed struggle.Everything has gone way out of proportions, way beyond what the Princess, the Prime Minister and the Generals planned and expected....PRINCESS LYNETH'S CAMP"It is good that the Northerners would be focusing on the South. My spies told me that at least half of their
The Cardonian delegation immediately headed out along with Azalean officials towards the tri-border wherein the peace negotiations have been on hold for a week now.As they make their way south aboard another set of airships, Cardonian engineers and air force personnel began their work in surveying the largest Azalean airship port. To their convenient coincidence, the airship port is designed to operate like an airport, wherein the airships would dock into these large terminals overland and the airships would take off in the large patch of cemented strip. And because they are also catering to the large biplanes the Dylaslans are using once in a while.It is far from how a normal airport would look like, but a few modifications and extension, the Cardonian jet liners would probably see service again doing international flights.All of this were the result of the successful bilateral talks between the two countries. And the Air Force is gunning to send their A330 MRRT within the next si
A temporary break have commenced on the ongoing peace negotiations on the old palace on the tri-border. A two hour break was raised by the Litenian King in which the Dylaslans quickly agreed.The amount of evidences provided by the Cardonians with their sophisticated technology looks real and credible enough that the Litenian King has to seek the advice of his close aides and officials. The Dylaslans however were on the edge, the evidences presented today have refuted all their claims.Meanwhile in the Cardonian and Azalean side, while the two other countries scramble to understand. The Azalean Prince took the opportunity to discuss more bilateral stuff with the Cardonians.After two hours they once again convened.The Litenian King then said. "The Kingdom of Cardonia has presented credible evidences to finally conclude that the Dylaslans were the first one to fire in anger against a ship that is clearly on a diplomatic mission.""What in the blasphemous name of god! You are going to
KINGDOM OF SCHAREN89KM FROM THE FRONTLINESCITY OF YVLDRA"MAKE WAY FOR GENERAL LAZAR!" a group of soldiers shouted as they thread on the crowded marketplace.A man in light blue robes makes his way into the busy town, escorted by a dozen armed Dylaslan soldiers. He was done in a traditional Dylaslan high officer dress, a light blue top adorned with medals and single black short tie.His group is having a hard time in going through the city. Thousands of refugees from the towns near the frontlines have vacated on the nearby towns and cities, and Yvldra is no exception, being the largest city in the center of the Kingdom of Scharen. And this refugees are jam packed on the small streets of the large city.And with the amount of people surrounding them, the soldiers guarding the General are having a hard time screening any possible attacker.The General is on his way towards the frontline headquarters.They painstakingly crossed the tight streets of the city by foot and after half an ho
KINGDOM OF CARDONIACITY OF DUHREM901ST MAINTENANCE BATTALIONThis maintenance battalion is responsible in the maintenance of the trucks and light vehicles of the Cardonian Armed Forces. Now they are tasked in refurbishing a number of stored vehicles.Inside the large warehouse, a collection of tanks are laying dormant here while a swarm of mechanics are trying to bring them back to life.The fleet of old M60A3's were being revitalized for active use considering Cardonia have limited amount of armor left on the mainland when they've deployed at least a hundred overseas.Standing out from the rest of the old American battle tanks is a dozen of Leopard 1A5's, the very few that were left in storage when almost all of the Cardonian Leopard 1 fleet were sold off to other countries and ironically the money theu got from it were spent upgrading some of their T-72's."Phew, resurrecting these old gals are very tedious!" ranted one of the mechanics."The Leopards are much easier to maintain w
Eight Cardonian soldiers in woodland camo reached the Archesian border patrol post using two G-Wagon's. Powerful winds are blowing through the forest pass along with torrential rains. It was a very chilly weather. Their vehicles have a hard time reaching their destination because of the muddy path.Armed with Steyr Aug A3's, this black bullpups are the signature weapon of the close in security of the Royal Guards. To be specific these are the soldiers of the Royal Vanguards, in charge of close in security for the Cardonian Royalties, nobilities, representatives and other key figures.They are planning to get a rough idea where in this part of the continent the runaway couple were. Once they have a rough idea then, the drones could easily scan the whole mountains in search of the two although that still depends on the weather as most of tge high and medium altitude drones are deployed on the North.A small search squad of the revered Cardonian Mountain Rangers, a division directly inco
KINGDOM OF CARDONIAPALACEThe large dining hall are filled with different Cardonian and 'Earthly' cuisines. The Cardonian King personally invited the two Princesses, Penelope and Lylah, for a grand breakfast. And they are in the dining table not as their country's official and representatives but as the owner of the house and his guests.And for half an hour, the old Cardonian King were enjoying the presence of the two lovely ladies."I would really love to have you as your daughters!" he excitingly exclaimed as he laughed on Penelope's story as she was exploring Cardonia."Grandpa!" retorted Prince Andruei as he sliced off a thin piece of glazed ham. He fully knows what the King meant."I would be glad Your Majesty! I totally prefer to be married to Prince Andruei rather be used as diplomatic tool and be married off on some faraway land!" replied Penelope, not realizing what her statement implied, sge continued on with her Belgian waffles."HAHAHA! It's high time that my beloved gra
It has been weeks since the Royal Family, the Leon's, was reinstated into power. With their trusted advisors and minders, they have been making progress in reunifying the Kingdom.Their form of government was utterly destroyed by the Scolusians when they've colonized their Kingdoms. All of their legislative and bureaucratic systems were all erased in favor of Scolusian delegated mayors and governors.When they've said destroyed, they really meant destroyed. Much of the nobilities were either killed, exiled and or reduced to peasant status. As such even with the central government being reestablished, they would be having a hard time in micro managing their provinces and distant cities and towns.This is where the bulk of the Cardonian technical support were being poured. Using their own country's political framework. They were suggesting that a modified monarchy would best fit the current Kingdom of Giniana.Wherein, the people themselves would be electing their local mayors and gover
Police officers and SWAT teams are now rushing towards the 5th street. The songs of gunfire echoed throughout the tall buildings of the City of Esden. Most officers now are armed with long guns even in their regular patrols as lessons from the previous attack on a town, Geilra to be specific.Brandishing their old but reliable M16A2's, HK33's and their new CZ Bren 2's, the police officers joined their already pressured comrades at fifth street.The massing army of beasts were then showered upon by 5.56mm rounds, some were even armor piercing, enabling the police to tackle even the thick skinned monstrosity. However with the intense fire, the large minotaur is still quietly standing still, it stands listless in the middle of the street, unbothered by the hundreds of bullets that were smacking him.A police helicopter, an Airbus H125 were now over them providing sniper fire from an officer with an M-14 EBR. The FLIR on the helicopter provided a clear picture for the authorities especial
KINGDOM OF CARDONIAA large silent parade of vehicles goes through the almost empty streets of the Capital City of Esden.Through their windows or tv screen. Citizens watch in sorrow as the parade honoring the late King and the hundreds of people who lost their lives on that fateful day 15 days ago. Hundreds of Cardonian flag were flown through the balconies and windows of the loyal citizens. They gave their firm salute as the parade passes them.Six BMW motorcycles lead the convoy in a triangle formation, A Mercedes hearse quickly followed them, a large convoy of black vehicles were also trailing behind. Inside it was the body of the late King. It is then followed by six Volkswagen Transporter hearse's, these meanwhile are the remains of the six valiant King's Guard who have died protecting him, as such they have the honor of being paraded with the King.The Air Force conducted a slow flyby with Blackhawk helicopters above the convoy as it droved through the avenues of the Capital,
EMPIRE OF SCOLUSNORTHERN PROVINCE"READY!""AIM" "FIRE!!!!!"*BANG.....BANGGGG!!!*A thunderous volley of fire coming from rudimentary flintlocks atop a stone fortress overlooking the crossroads connecting the Northern Province to the rest of the Empire.A large band of desperate beasts, wolfmen, pigmen, goblins and otger unknown creatures quickly fell into their knees as their bodies were penetrated by these very effective silver like cannonball.*BOOM....OOOMMMM*Another set of volleys this time coming from small cannons. Slinging large silver cannonballs to the enormous orcs charging the fort at high speed. The cannonballs rip right through their thick muscular bodies."RELOADING!!" soldiers shouted almost in sync as they quickly reloaded their smoking muskets."DON'T LET THOSE BASTARDS GET NEAR THE WALL!" an Imperial Commander shouted towards his shaken men.Dozens of lances and spears then struck anyone whose trying to climb atop their stone walls.After that, a second barrage
KINGDOM OF LITENIAPEARL PALACEA huge banquet was being held at the majestic cream white Palace, this is to celebrate the return of the Second Prince of the Kingdom from his year long adventure onto the desert continent of Sabrah. This part of the world remain as one of the most untouched regions as the very harsh environment prevents any successful expeditions.Various tribes also makes diplomacy as non existent as regions are divided among the many different tribes. However for traders like the Litenians in particular, the juicy resources that are hidden away in the various sand dunes are very hard to resist. From emerald, to gold, to iron and to this blackish flammable substance similar to their 'liquid fuel'.As such this dangerous endeavour is really worthy for this grand banquet.The King himself is entertaining many different merchant heads and diplomats from Azalea and Dylasla.This happened a few days after Cardonia has been attacked, before the new King has been crowned and
EMPIRE OF SCOLUSNORTHERN PROVINCEPROVINCIAL CAPITAL KAELIt has been three days since the Cardonian flying swords terrorize the Imperial skies and dropped these great fireballs all around the Empire. These stories quickly snowballed from one merchant to another, and within days the whole Empire knew what hit them and became anxious on how to prevent it.The chain of command as they know it has been destroyed in one day. Most of the higher demons are in the Palace that time for the Emperor's supposedly week long banquet after their successful attack on Cardonia's own Capital.Local lords and Imperial commanders took over command of their regional units and what is left of the Main Grand Army after their main fortress also suffered the same fate.There are no words coming from the Capital on what is going on. They feared that Cardonia did wiped out their hierarchy in the series of attacks. Tension between the local lords and generals both demon and human are sure to spark sooner or la
KINGDOM OF CARDONIA7 DAYS AFTER THE ATTACKThe whole Kingdom is still in full lockdown. Police cruisers and policed versions of APC's like the Pegasus and Leland Bearcat's patrol every streets and avenues in a rotational basis for the last few days.But the patrolling armored vehicles despite the good-intentions, are making things worse for the citizens watching behind their windows, who have been clueless ever since the attack. There were no clear message from the acting government, for all they know, the Capital is in ruins and this country might be heading for the same fate, and this martial law like lockdown is further fueling their doubts.National television is constantly maintained and censored by the government, only airing announcements about curfew and other relief provisions but no answer to what is really happening, censoring the media is a no go for a country who values freedom. However the parliament decided to keep it's mouth shut until there is a clear direction. A go
A small flight of three F-16D Blk.50's and a modified A330 MRTT were flying one hour ahead of the nuclear strike group composed of the Sukhoi's.These sleek blackish grey fighter aircrafts with their protruding Conformal Fuel Tanks makes them the most beautiful aircrafts in the whole world, add the beautiful afternoon sun above them, they were literally glistening. These fighters specifically are attached to the 101st Fighter Squadron, the ones responsible for the protection of the Cardonian Capital, their squad mates did help out during the cruel attack, however this wasn't enough for the Squadron. The flyboy's are thirsty for revenge not only that these bastards desecrated the fabulous city of Esden, killed their King but their reputation as guardians of the Capital are greatly tarnished.They might not be the ones pulling the trigger, but it is a worthy revenge even if serving as spotters.The F-16's were equipped with a large Cardonian made Synthetic Aperture Radar and Laser Targe
HIDDEN ELVEN KINGDOM OF ALTAIRA few days ago.Their massive magic barrier surrounding their sanctuary were almost destroyed by the massive amount of Azalean airships breaking through.Their warriors gathered all their weapons and took their defensive position on what seems to be a sudden invasion by their distant kin.It was a surreal sight to behold as dozens of airships clouded the high mountain ranges that is serving as their natural barrier. Anyone would be edge when witnessing such fleet emerging out of nowhere.To calm down the apparent tense situation. The Azalean Flagship bearing their Royal Insignia quickly descended and Princess Penelope also quickly showed herself as a sign of peace.After a few explanations and apologies from both parties. The 'Altairners' welcomed their kin to the Kingdom. The Azalean fleet then scrambled to find any available space to dock or park.Princess Penelope and the Azaleans were warmly received by the Altanairian Queen. Penelope quickly discuss
The remnants of the once proud Capital city is currently being demolished by thousands of beasts and demons.The black scorched land provides this eerie canvass for the monsters that is swarming over it. They are clearing the rubble to make way for new infrastructure and military installations vital to the newly built Empire.A small group of humans from the Northern Province watches in pure terror of what has become of their revered Capital. Gold have once poured over the Capital now it reeks of feces and blood. It has been desecrated to bear oblivion.This small group were the once who have stayed loyal to the Emperor as such they would receive 'proper' treatment under the new banner. Somehow most of then were regretting the side they have joined, but hearing the news how the Easterners and of course the Southerners are being dealt with, they are a little bit thankful.One of the representatives vomited as they march towards the majestic Palace. He has saw a glimpse of a woman bein
