As the Eastern Duke of Alemia Nation is currently on his way headed towards The Nirewin City of Kingdom of Nirewin, that is an ally nation of Aeternum. Meanwhile in the Alemia City, the pressure of the Civil war are already mounting on both factions. These wars rather than anyone gaining anything at all, both side were just continuously losing everything they had slowly over the time. In fact, the Southern Region and also the Eastern Region by now already started to see a clear receding numbers of their citizen and many fled towards the Aeternum border walls or to the peaceful Eastern Region.Even their soldiers continue to drops as every single days passes. At the Alemia Palace, at the Throne room, all the Queen vassal were grouped together as they often does in the war time. Currently for both side the pressure were big for them and everyone seeks to end these war by winning them. One of the major life changing factor is Duke Oliver Gust who has been against the war from the start u
Currently the Duke Oliver Gust convoy from the Gust City has already arrived safely passed the Alemia Nation border and already near entering the Nirewin City. Nowadays, even the small Kingdom of Nirewin were already bustling with vibrancy as the nation are now, already considering themselves as Aeternum unofficial vassal state. Duke Oliver Gust and his wives remembered these city weren’t as bustling and advance as right now before. But now those dilapidated and poor city has already changed so much, that it was almost unrecognizable.“Oh, these city has changed so much that I barely recognized them….2 months ago, there weren’t these busy…now..they already have the Association here…so amazing!..”.(Duke Oliver Gust)“Look, Honey…even their roads were paved now…King Helberd must be very happy right now…”.(Duchess Cassi Gust)Senior Agent Mephi who acted as the escort for the Duke family, naturally ride with them in the same SUV. Ever since then entered the Nirewin City that already have
“Hello, Yes…they already en route?…good, then arranged the receptions for them first…and tell them to meet the schedule for tomorrow…alright..”.(Elijah)“Is it the Duke progress?..”.“Yes…they already on board the Airship bound to New City…probably arrived late these night…so the meeting between us and them should be done tomorrow….I saked if they wanted to rest a little more for a few days…according to our agent, the Duke refuse to do so and wanted to have the meeting as soon as possible…”.(Elijah)“Oh…he is quite a character, that duke…I supposed..then he should be an interesting figure to watch in these play…”.“I supposed so…I already checked his files…and personally…I think he wanted to served under us..master..”.(Elijah)“.…Hmmm….probably…”.I am in my office right now, working together with Elijah. Yesterday I gave out the order to retrived the Duke and his entire family to safety and bring them back to Aeternum as fast as it can. After all, our intelligence agent were able to
By the time that Duke Oliver Gust and his family arrived at Aeternum New City, the clock were already pointed at 1 o’clock in the morning. So instead of moving around late at night, Duke Oliver and his family, decided to head straight to their Mansion at the High End Residential District. It was built almost identical to their mansion back in the Gust City so everyone turned to rest for the night. Even Senior Agent Mephi didn’t stayed despite the Duke Invitations. Naturally as promising by the Aeternum Government their entire Mansion were guarded by Aeternum Army to the point even the Duke said that it was an Overkill to have such security. But after he was informed that now his heads were being after by both factions he settled down and accept the treatment.“I honestly thought that only one side will come after us…but for both side to acted these way….I guess they cannot afford for us to sided with anyone anymore…”.(Francesca Oliver Gust)“They were clearly desperate these days…to
The distance between Duke Oliver Gust Mansion in New City to their destination which is the New City Governmental District, is not really that far away. It was rather short about a kilometer or so by following the road, after all they do have to follow the city roads and from the Residential District, which where not only the Mansion for the richest and also all of Aeternum New City dwellers lives at, to cross to the Governmental District one still have to passed through 2 major district in New City, the Education District and a small part of the Commercial District. That is just the way Aeternum New City roads systems after all, for a devoted follower of Aeternum development such as Duke Oliver Gust, these small window of time for sight seeing is definitely an experience he definitely refused to let up.“Oho…New City is definitely breathing a new breath…the city has changed so much from before…it was really amazing…”.(Duke Oliver Gust)“Yes…it definitely is…it was after all, ou Natio
As the SUV Convoy slowly passed the magnificent sight and started to cruise faster down the central roads of the city. Duke Oliver smiles started to turned from sweet to bittersweet, as if lamenting his own destiny, the atmosphere inside the SUV slowly turned somber.“His Highness President…definitely, a great leader huh…How fortunate of you, Jelina..to be able to follow such magnificent liege…”. (Duke Oliver Gust)“...I guess so too…I who lost my husband..thought that Jelina family lineage would end with me…who would’ve thought that that His Highness approved that Nobles could inherited the nobility title..just like so…it was something that no one could even dreamed of doing at all…he made that happened on his whim…”.(Governess Countess Jelina)“His Highness President…is a brilliant ma…he knew that what is matter is talents…be it man or woman…human or non-human…what is matter is their capability…that what made him able to make sure things like these happened…while other were heading
“No matter how many times I stood here..these place just making me nervous so much…to Aeternum these is the place where the Aeternum starts…such a momentous spot…”.(Duke Oliver Gust)“Oh, Come on, Oliver…you have been here a lot of times before..sending your request again and again..to the point where I heard that the Front desk receptionist already recognized you and your messenger…”.(Governess Countess Jelina)“It’s just I wanted to be apart of all this, My Friend….”.(Duke Oliver Gust)“Sure…anyway..let’s head inside…Vice President is already waiting for us..”.(Governess Countess Jelina)“Oh really?…then we shouldn’t let her wait for too long…Let’s go..”.(Duke Oliver Gust)Just from hearing speaks about his feeling of amazement, one can know that he was appreciating the Aeternum centers of government. The Black House were often and seen as a sacred place and the most important location in all of Aeternum land. It was known as the place where the Aeternum government truly operates, e
Compared to a lot of others high ranking Aeternum official, Lieutenant Colonel Selie, is a figure that a lot of people knows and should knows about, but there is not many that has ever seen her in person, or even have the opportunity to work with her. Because Selie was known as not only the Vice President attendant, but also her office belonged to the Presidential Office. She weren’t like Lieutenant Colonel Sareen who is working directly with the Vice President herself. Lieutenant Colonel Selie is someone that can be put in a categorized of a covert personnel. In fact, on some matters, she were even on par with a director level personnel.So when Duke Oliver Gust said that he and meet with her several times, and even got to meet with the Vice President through her. That alone says a lot of Duke Oliver current standing, inside of Aeternum organization, he has already have some importance in Aeternum major plans. Governess Countess Jelina just found out that Duke Oliver Gust might be no
“Learn the Craft of Visual Storytelling! Enroll in the Aeternum Film Academy Today!”Students from all over Aeternum flocked to sign up. Aspiring actors hoping to be the next big star. Writers eager to bring their stories to life. Technicians fascinated by the magic of film.Even our allied nations sent students, eager to learn about this new frontier of entertainment. The future of the film industry had been secured.“If there are no theaters, there’s no audience.”Right now, Aeternum was the only nation with cinemas. But the true money wouldn’t come from just our own population—it would come from exporting movies and cinema technology to our allied nations.And so, we struck a deal. Each allied nation would provide land and funding for the construction of cinemas. Aeternum would bring in the technology, train workers, and provide the films.The profits would be split—40% for Aeternum, 60% for the host nation. This trade cooperation would not only strengthen alliances but also ensur
“Coming Soon: Aeternum’s First Movie – Directed by the President Himself!”The public reaction was beyond anything I had imagined. People were talking about it in markets, cafes, and even at work.“Did you hear? The President himself is acting in this film!”“I don’t even know what a movie is, but if the President made it, I have to see it!”“They say it’s like a play, but the characters are on a magical screen. How does that even work?”The excitement was contagious. Even foreign merchants and diplomats in Aeternum were intrigued—they, too, wanted to witness this mysterious new form of entertainment.Shooting the movie was not easy. Unlike Earth, Aeternum had no experienced film industry professionals. Camera operators had to be trained from scratch.Actors had to learn how to deliver lines naturally instead of exaggerated stage acting. Lighting and set design had to be invented entirely from the ground up.One of my biggest struggles?Teaching the actors to not look directly at the
On screen, ANBC reporters walked the streets, interviewed important figures, and even showed battlefield footage of Aeternum’s military exercises. The people were shocked, their jaws dropping as they saw moving images of places they had never been."It’s like I’m standing there with them!" A shopkeeper had exclaimed in an interview, reacting to seeing footage of Angela’s train network expansion.But news wasn’t the only thing that took the world by storm.I had taken it upon myself to recreate classic entertainment from Earth, bringing a whole new level of culture to Aeternum.Dramas and Soap Operas – Noble romance, political intrigue, thrilling battles, and dramatic betrayals captivated viewers. Families gathered around the television, watching scripted stories unfold before their eyes for the first time.Short Films & Movies – Storytelling evolved overnight. Actors and playwrights who once worked in theaters had now found a new home in television. The birth of Aeternum’s film indust
“For the first time ever, we bring to you, the Dukedom of Angela—as seen through the lens of Aeternum television!” Quara announced proudly.The footage zoomed in to Angela City, its sprawling medieval-style castles and townships standing in stark contrast to Aeternum’s modern metropolis. The streets of Angela were bustling, the markets filled with traders, and most importantly, the brand-new train station was shown in full glory—with an Aeternum-built high-speed train pulling in.Loud cheers erupted from across the nation.“I never thought I’d be able to see another country without having to travel!” a young boy marveled, watching from his family’s living room.Back in the Angela Grand Plaza, where a giant public viewing screen had been set up, Angela’s own citizens were watching themselves on the Aeternum News.A young Angela nobleman paled, tugging at his collar. “Is this how they see us? We look so… so old-fashioned compared to them!”His companion, a wealthy merchant, nodded. “The
As life in Angela rapidly modernized, one final surprise awaited its citizens—a marvel unlike anything they had ever seen before.Under President Mies’ orders, Minister Rafaela of A.R.D.H.M. (Art, Research, Development, Health, and Magic) had finally completed a project years in the making.Aeternum had officially invented the world’s first television.At Angela’s Grand Plaza, a massive gathering of people stood in front of a newly constructed screen.“Is this… some kind of moving painting?” an old man asked, adjusting his spectacles.His grandson, a curious boy named Emile, tugged on his sleeve. “Grandpa, look! The picture is… changing!”The crowd gasped as the screen flickered to life, revealing an image of DJ Skelly and Quara Raedrim, two of Aeternum’s most famous radio hosts.“Greetings, citizens of Angela!” DJ Skelly’s booming voice echoed across the plaza. “Today is a historic day! For the first time ever, the people of Aeternum and Angela will witness the future of entertainmen
At Fort Steelward, a border outpost near the west, Angela’s Captain Cedric Durand stood alongside Aeternum’s Colonel Matthias Kael, watching as their combined forces executed a tactical drill.“You train your men well,” Captain Cedric admitted, watching as Aeternum’s soldiers swiftly took down training dummies with precise gunfire and coordinated tactics.Colonel Kael smirked. “Efficiency is key. We fight with strategy, discipline, and superior equipment.”Angela’s soldiers were still adjusting to Aeternum’s modernized warfare, but the results spoke for themselves. Crime rates near the border had dropped by 60% in just three months, and monster activity was at an all-time low.For Angela’s government, this was the best possible outcome. A safer nation meant a stronger economy, happier citizens, and more stability.In the halls of Angela’s Royal Palace, the nation’s ministers convened for a special meeting to discuss the growing partnership with Aeternum.“I must admit,” Minister Jean-
“So…” Baroness Elise folded her arms. “Are you telling us that our businesses are failing because we refuse to acknowledge the common folk as valuable clients?”“Precisely,” Lionel said. “Look, my friends—tradition is fine, but wealth does not care about tradition. You must ask yourselves, do you wish to cling to outdated ideals and watch your investments fail? Or will you embrace modernity and open your doors to the true economy?”The Angela nobles were silent.Marquis Alistair eventually exhaled. “Damn… I hate to admit it, but you’re right.”Duke Clarence sighed, rubbing his temples. “It seems we have much to reconsider.”Lionel smirked. “That’s the first step to success. Now… shall we discuss how to properly revamp your business strategies?”By the time Angela’s nobles returned home, their entire perspective had changed. Within weeks, their resorts underwent major rebranding, opening their services to the wealthy merchants, military officers, and successful craftsmen that made up A
Duke Clarence and his companions exchanged glances. The idea of a nobility focused on economy and culture rather than ruling and taxation was unthinkable in the Dukedom of Angela.At that moment, Countess Vivian Lancaster, a noblewoman from Aeternum’s east, approached the group with a knowing smile. “And you should know, Duke Clarence,” she said smoothly, “there is far more wealth and prestige in industry than in ruling over struggling farmers.”She produced a document, sliding it across the table. It was an investment portfolio—Aeternum Nobles had turned entire mountain valleys into profitable spa resorts, old castles into boutique hotels, and hunting grounds into elite golf courses.Marquis Alistair leaned forward, his eyes widening at the immense profits outlined in the reports. “By the heavens… you’re making millions in mere months,” he whispered.Viscount Lionel nodded, clearly enjoying their shock. “And it is all because we embraced progress, rather than clinging to the past.”Ba
“This railway is not merely a connection between nations,” Queen Angela declared, “but a symbol of progress. A bridge between past traditions and the bright future we shall build together.”President Mies added, “With this project, Angela will no longer be isolated or vulnerable. It will be a thriving hub of innovation and prosperity.”The people roared with approval, commoners eager for job opportunities, and nobles eager for increased wealth.Meanwhile, across the border, envoys from Hallerus Kingdom and the Golden Triangle Nation secretly observed the Angela-Aeternum railway collaboration.One Hallerus official slammed his fist onto his desk upon receiving the report. “They’re building a rail network that connects Aeternum to the Forbidden Wasteland?! If this continues, Angela will become untouchable!”A Golden Triangle merchant sneered. “Tch. Those fools in Angela have completely sold themselves to Aeternum. But we can do nothing. Our king already declared hostilities. We are lock
