Everyone in Aeternum, were listening intently to the Presidential address on the morning news. After all, these very address is something that will marked one of the greatest moment, is Aeternum history and also perhaps the Central Continent. To the listeners outside of Aeternums, every single person that were listening were also anxious about what will come up next. In reality, sure, Aeternum is a small country, but to say that they are weak. That isn’t something that many would foolishly believed. After all, these is the country that coming out of nowhere and fought stampede of undead in it’s first appearance.Then culled a long civil war, in Alemia Kingdom is a sweeping victory, then formed the first successful multinational alliance, then participate in the recent Hallerus Kingdom war, and won that war in a single month, when it was originally expected to be prolonged for years. Aeternums were a nation, that many mercenaries and adventures no matter how famous or menacing they wer
To start the the introductions to the Aeternum mega domestic development, plans, a lot of things were being said, by the President In a rapid fire succession. Which not a single person that listened to the broadcast want to even leaver their seat, as they afraid that they would miss something important. All that the President said were seemingly so unobtainable, but as he proceeds with his words, one by one, people started to be able to discerned whether what the president said is just a rambling nonsense or a visions that can be turned into a reality. To the people outside of Aeternum, they were still trying to guess whether it can be done, but for Aeternums they already know that the vision can be achieved.“[Starting from today…Project Aeternum Titan Thunderbolt, will be started…by reconstructing our Capital City…New City…will be enlarged, beautify and also be remodeled to suit it’s name as our country centers…..All the deconstructed structures that has been turned into an empty lo
President Mies confident tone of voice, further incite those that were hearing his speech, from inside of Aeternum and the outside. It was as clear as the sun on the daylight, that this man is not just playing around spouting nonsense, he meant what he said. For Aeternums, they can fathom just how large of the scale of the entire project would be, and when the president said the entire nation would be changed. Everyone believed it, because after all the one that were promising all of these were the President himself. And that particular man, has never once break his promise to his people.“[Not just stopping at the will be build Inhabour City, that will soon the heart of the Central Continent, in terms of transportation hub and the heart of Aeternum industry and wholesale trading!…We will change, every single city, town and village in Aeternum!...The Agriculture Town…will be developed to the entirety of the whole Agriculture Region!….Making it the largest region will produces foods an
By now it was already very clear to many in Central Continent that, Aeternum is a better place to live. But despite of that fact, not many that are willing to make the choice and also journey to get to that safe haven. After all, it was hard to live a place that you live, when you are already dirt poor. And also, Aeternum has a very well known policy at the moment, thanks to the war that they have experience before. And that is that, Aeternums would not ventures out so save anyone at the time being, also the news that they border were closed, it even made it harder for people to make a decisions.But over the time, there were a lot of people that are desperate for a better life, has made their effort to the best they can to find a way. It was also a well known fact, that many Aeternum citizens, is mostly not born in Aeternum. Given that fact, it was only natural that there a lot of Aeternums that have family members, acquaintance from other nations. Over the time, there were also a lo
In Aeternum, New City, the second President Mies announced the matter regarding the establishment of Aeternum owned 3 Major guilds itself, For all the 3 major Guilds, the Adventurer Guild, Mercenary Guild and the Merchant Guild, all of them feel like a gloomy days for them has officially started. In Aeternum alone, the # major guilds have 3 branches build in this nation, the New City Branch, the Agriculture town branch and the Shark Central City Branch. Every single guild members from the guild master to the ordinary staff that were in the building all of them can only cast their heads down.“Wow..just..wow!….finally it comes…and it’s official…we are doomed…just…doomed…Oh lord…just why..why?…why does those upper echelon bastard had to back stab Aeternum!….we were doing just fine here…why did they have to do this?!…they think only about their profits…do they even think about anyone else?….Aeternum has done nothing and they still have to poked the bee nest!…ARGH!!!…why is my life so suc
No on would actually considered or even thought that Aeternum are willing to go to such lengths. Because everyone knows that the 3 major guilds is a large organizations, kind that span across the entire continent, perhaps even the entire Fantasma. And on central continent, that 3 major guild has become a super faction that have it’s own incredible influences. It almost can stand side by side with the Church of Light influences. And also, perhaps it was also one of the first organizations that promotes inclusiveness to all races. Ever since it’s establishment, it has gotten enormous support, by the people and also many kingdoms and government.Basically, there is no use to be against the guilds, after all, in a broad sense they all brought nothing but positive values. In a sense, everyone thinks that Aeternum is just stabbing their own foot for going up against the Major guilds. What use to go against an organizations that could potentially be of help to you when in time of need, a fre
A few days ago, right before President Mies returned to Aeternum, All the closest allies of Aeternum has come and have a secret meeting, Via video conference that were lead and hosted by Vice President Elijah herself. The main reason for it, is to announced Aeternum current standing, and also to ease the anxious of all the country leaders after hearing that President Mies declared that Aeternum border would be closed. In that meeting, Aeternum had made it known to all the ally leaders, that Aeternum will not comprehend about it’s border closing issue. But through negotiations that were led by Queen Duchess Angela Weinstein of Dukedom of Angela, Great Archmage Lodwig Godgrafen of Institute of Artemesia and also King Sebastian Marsner Redwall of The Setting Sun Kingdom, Vice President Elijah conceded, and hence that Aeternum will let only one of it’s border opened and that is the Dukedom of Angela border.Thanks to Aeternum cooperation, everyone were relieve. The second agenda, is Aeter
Aeternum has always been revolutionary and a head of it’s time no matter what they do, and when the leads were President Mies. Only fools would doubt his capabilities after he has time and time again defy the logic of these world. Naturally for all the allied leaders, all of them has accept that facts, and unlike many, those that were still stood by Aeternum despite the large fallout due to the war, all of them were humble and knows the merits of following a man as President Mies, because ultimately, Aeternum is as the same as their leader. They were not greed for other people possessions, their main concerned is their own prosperity and also safety.By now, unbeknownst to many there were a lot of retired adventurers, retired mercenaries, or some merchants who distance themselves from the guilds. And clearly there were also those that were the 3 major guilds, hearing that Aeternum has already made their own guilds, everyone were intrigued. After all, hearing that there were a lot of b
BOOM!The object slammed into the city gates, unleashing a deafening explosion that shook the ground beneath their feet. The shockwave rippled outward, sending soldiers sprawling and shattering windows across the city. Dust and debris filled the air as the once-mighty gates crumbled into a smoking ruin.Amariss stumbled backward, his sword clattering to the ground as he stared in horror at the devastation.“What… what is this? What is happening?!”he stammered, his voice trembling with fear. In the distance, the Aeternum Navy Fleet stood poised, their warships bristling with firepower. The single missile had been a warning—a demonstration of Aeternum’s overwhelming strength and precision. And it had achieved its purpose.The soldiers of Amariss’s army, already demoralized and terrified, broke ranks almost immediately. Dropping their weapons and abandoning their positions, they fled in every direction, their panic spreading like wildfire.“Come back! COME BACK, YOU COWARDS!”Amariss sc
“The reports… the soldiers… they are abandoning their posts. Even the Prime Minister has—”“I know,”she interrupted, her voice calm but laced with resignation.“Let them go. They were never loyal to me to begin with.”Her Royal Knight Commander, Lucas Perdue, entered moments later, his face grim.“Your Majesty, the palace remains secure for now, but the city is unraveling. The people are heeding Aeternum’s call, not ours. And the army… they’ve lost the will to fight.”The Queen closed her eyes, taking a deep breath.“Lucas, prepare for the inevitable. Lock down the palace. Imprison those who remain loyal to the Prime Minister and the other schemers. And… prepare for my surrender to Aeternum.”Lucas hesitated, his hand tightening on the hilt of his sword.“Are you certain, Your Majesty? To surrender is to admit—”“To admit that we’ve failed,”she finished for him.“Yes. Because we have failed. And the longer we cling to this throne, the more my people suffer….it is of no point to figh
Back at the frontlines, as soldiers readied themselves for the final march, they were moved by the reports circulating from command. The evidence of Alemia’s corruption and the suffering of its people only solidified their resolve. Around campfires and inside armored vehicles, soldiers shared their thoughts openly.One young soldier spoke with determination:“It’s not just about winning the war. We’re here to do something right—to fix what’s broken.”Another nodded, clenching her rifle tightly.“The President and the Vice President have never hidden anything from us. They’ve told us why we’re fighting, and that’s why I’d follow them anywhere.”Even the most hardened veterans were touched by the weight of their mission. One grizzled commander, looking out at the stars, muttered to himself,“We’re not just soldiers. We’re builders of a better future.”As the evening turned to night, a quiet anticipation spread across Aeternum and the liberated regions of Alemia. Farmers working their fi
“[To the citizens of Aeternum, know this: our soldiers, our leaders, and our government are united in our cause. We fight not for conquest, but for liberation. We fight to bring light to a land that has known darkness for far too long. And we fight because we believe in a better future for all.]”As she reached the conclusion of her address, Elijah’s voice softened slightly, carrying a note of hope.“[Let us move forward together—with courage, with resolve, and with the knowledge that we are on the side of justice. Aeternum stands as a beacon of hope, and together, we will bring peace to Alemia Nation. Thank you, and may we all stay safe in the hours ahead.]”The response to Elijah’s address was immediate and palpable. Across Aeternum, workers paused their tasks, families huddled around radios, and soldiers standing in the encampments felt a renewed sense of purpose.In one bustling Aeternum farm, a group of farmers stood together, their hands still muddy from the fields, listening in
“This is why I serve Aeternum,”he said.“Our government doesn’t hide anything from us. The President shows us the truth—the corruption, the suffering, everything. We’re not here for conquest. We’re here to fix what’s broken.”A sergeant nearby nodded.“And the Crown Prince? He deserves everything that’s coming to him. My wife is from Alemia, and she told me stories of what that man has done—taxing people into starvation while throwing lavish parties. It’s disgusting.”Another soldier, a former immigrant from Alemia, added,“It’s not just him. The entire royal family let this happen. But the fact that the President is willing to spare Queen Romella and preserve a part of Alemia’s heritage? That shows we’re not here to destroy—we’re here to rebuild.”Even the officers echoed similar sentiments. In the command tent, a group of captains discussed the decision over steaming mugs of coffee.“This is why we’re different,” one of them said.“Other nations would have razed Alemia to the groun
“What do you want to do, Your Excellency? Should we accept her surrender?”I exhaled slowly, feeling the weight of the decision before me.“We’ll accept it,”I said finally.“But under our terms. She will relinquish everything, including her dignity as a monarch. She’ll serve as an example of what happens when leaders fail their people. Let her live—but only just enough to remind everyone of the cost of her failures.”Elijah’s tone softened, a hint of respect in her voice.“Understood. I’ll finalize the arrangements and have her surrender publicly acknowledged at the right time. This war is finally nearing its end.”I sat back in my chair, my gaze drifting to the reports strewn across my desk. The Alemia Nation, a land plagued by incompetence and corruption, was finally crumbling. Its remnants would soon be swept away by the strength and unity of Aeternum. In the background, the low hum of Dragon One’s engines served as a steady reminder of the impending victory. The final steps were
“It’s over,”she announced, her voice echoing through the chamber.“The Alemia Royalty Faction has fallen—quietly, and without resistance.”The officers in the war room erupted into a flurry of activity, relaying the monumental news across Aeternum’s military network. But amidst the chaos, there was an undercurrent of somber resolve.“This is why Aeternum must lead,”one officer murmured to his colleague.“Their so-called queen waited until the very end to take responsibility—and only when her back was against the wall.”Another officer nodded.“At least she’s surrendering. But the damage is done. Her people have suffered for far too long. It’s time we clean up this mess.”Elijah listened to their hushed conversations; her expression unreadable. Though her demeanor was calm and composed, a storm of thoughts churned within her mind. She knew that this surrender, while significant, was only the beginning. The real work—rebuilding Alemia and bringing it under Aeternum’s banner—was yet to
In the heart of New City, the nerve center of Aeternum’s military operations—The Black House War Room—was abuzz with activity. Communication officers called out coordinates, screens lit up with battlefield updates, and every second was accounted for as the final stages of the Alemia campaign unfolded. Vice President Elijah, seated on the imposing Command Throne, presided over it all with her usual steely composure.But then, a phone rang—a call not routed through the usual secure military channels. The sudden interruption brought the entire room to a halt. All eyes turned to Elijah as she picked up the receiver.“This is Vice President Elijah,”she announced firmly.A familiar but timid voice greeted her.“Vice President Elijah… this is Queen Romella of Alemia.”The room fell into complete silence. Every officer present held their breath, straining to catch any hint of what was being said. The weight of the unexpected call hung heavily in the air.Elijah’s voice turned ice-cold, her t
Meanwhile, in the Aeternum camp, soldiers discussed the situation in hushed but animated tones. The transparency of the president’s leadership and the reports of the Alemia government’s incompetence had ignited a fiery determination among them.“Did you hear the latest report?”one soldier asked, leaning over his meal tray.“The queen herself admitted to being a puppet for the nobles. Can you believe that?”Another soldier scoffed.“It’s disgusting. They let their people starve and suffer while they live in luxury. No wonder Aeternum had to step in.”A younger recruit, still fresh to the army, spoke up hesitantly.“Do you think we’re really doing the right thing? Taking over an entire nation?”The veteran sitting next to him clapped him on the shoulder.“Kid, we’re not just taking over. We’re fixing what they broke. Look around you—this isn’t a war for power. It’s a war for justice.”The recruit nodded slowly, his doubts fading.“I just… I’ve never seen a leader like the president bef
