Breaking the Ice

To King Arthur of the United Kingdom,

Since the formation on New France, our nations have remained on amicable terms through a tumultuous period. The cooperation has been of great benefit to both, ensuring peace remains both across the Channel and, for the most part, across Europe. However with rising expansionism on the continent and the ever-increasing threat of a global conflict, I believe both our nations can find great benefit in a formal partnership or alliance.
I am aware that, as President, my family legacy may deter you and decrease your trust. However, let me reassure you - I am neither the same man or ruling the same country as my 4 times great grand uncle. Times are changing, and I hope that your decision considers this. I do not wish to recreate the reach of the Empire, nor subjugate innocents - unlike some states to the South.

Thus, I invite a delegation to the Palais de l'Élysée to discuss the future of the relationship between our nations, and forge a new bond that could last for centuries.

_{SANDRINGHAM HOUSE | NORFOLK}

With it being a weekend, Arthur and his family were staying at Sandringham, their usual weekend residence. Since the restoration, George VIII had made a point of having most of the Royal Family close by, meaning three generations of the family were all there at once, including the Dowager Queen, Catherine. As Arthur was in the sitting room, a uniformed equerry knocked on the door before entering, then proceeded to bow his head. "Your Majesty's...", he said. "There's a telegram from France, Sir. From President Napoléon." which recieved incredulous glances from Catherine and Mary, and a surprised scoff from Margaret.
"'President' Napoléon?" she asked sarcastically.
"A telegram direct to Sandringham? Back in my day they would have gone through a ridiculous amount of people at the Foreign Office before my Husband ever saw anything." Catherine said.
"That was then, Granny, it's not like that anymore." Arthur assured her.
"And we have you to thank for that, Artie." Catherine replied, to which Arthur simply smiled.
"Well," Arthur began, "either way this could be an opportunity. Once again Europe is at breaking point and it falls on Britain and France to sort it out. If we can get them onside and knock some sense into them, we could ensure another lasting peace. I'll go."
"I'll go with you." Charlotte said as she stood up and placed her hand on Arthur's shoulder. "I'm an American that speaks French, what more could they want?" she said, to which the matriarchy laughed in agreement.

~~~~~

Later on in his private study, Arthur wrote a reply on headed paper with the words "Sandringham House" in red, to the French President accepting his invitation to Palais de l'Élysée, and that he would be there on time.

Unovian Taiwan-Dining & Meeting Room
The Unovian wait staff easily handled the orders of the guests, then returned to the stations where they were. This was the first time many of them had seen the vampires, and the ninja, especially since these were cultures that happened to be very isolationist, and it was rare to get them out to meetings. Still, they did their best to serve the guests that had arrived. There was also concern for the Asian states that had not shown, namely

The Guru, who largely represented China and Southeast Asia and of course the British. Most curious was which culture would appear, though it was anticipated that the Indians would make an appearance, it was not known if it would be as part of a larger delegation or as their own voice at the table (

Unified Empiricus).

With the majority of Asia being seen as a "wild zone", it was important that the others would make themselves known. For the betterment of the Continent as a whole, it was imperative that the Nations would be willing to form a stabilizing force and put any former animosity aside. All would be discovered as the participants trickled in.

As the Commonwealth delegation arrived in Taiwan they eventually made their way to the location of the Summit where President Stark was awaiting them. While the largest nation being represented by the Commonwealth delegation was India, they were also accompanied by ministers from Ceylon and Singapore, as well as the provisional government of China - which had a larger stake in this than any of them. The Commonwealth was intent on showing the people of China that their right to exist would be defended by Britain and its Allies, hence why the 'big guns' from the Indian Federation were sent.

Upon their arrival, it became apparent that no expense was spared in the delegation, as they had sent as their representative the Governor-General of India himself, Prince Louis Mountbatten. As he was escorted to the meeting room by the Unovian aides his impressive and imposing stature stole the room, reminiscent of his namesake all those years ago.

The Guru wrote:

Vũ Duy Luận looked at the congregation of individuals seeing the Commonwealths of India, Singapore and China. Those three would likely give himself grief for his home in the confederacy who had talked those provinces to join them in confederation and know peace and plenty. Looking to the others the Unovian party was of just two individuals President Stark himself and a representative who named herself Tsai Moon. Meanwhile the Sylvanian visitor to the meeting remined him of likeness to looking at hungry Ghoul. The fourth party however he had never the pleasure to meet of them only heard snatches of news that was traded with his home and the UAF.

"Steamed rice and a fillet steak medium rare," said Vũ he had a half a mind to add to make sure it was beef. He may have lived in a nation where cannibalism was the norm, but he was no Ghoul. No, he was just as human as all here save for the one from Sylvania. Vũ just dreaded whatever was to come of this meeting for no matter how a meeting of nations was to be a simple defensive pact they had a habit to spiral to other matters with such a meeting of peoples.

At seeing the newest arrivals both thoughts brought along with the Prince of India. Sophia raised her glass in a greeting to he's parties arrival and, at seeing Mr.Vu a look of disappointment when she could tell he was just a dime a dozen human. For now she was happy to just people watch and analyze everything about to happen.

Unovian Taiwan-Dining & Meeting Room
The Unovians saw the delegations arrive, served them their selected meals, then decided it was high time to start the meeting properly. President Stark addressed the collective groups.
"It is a pleasure to have you all here. We have called you all here to handle some business that affects us all on the Continent. However, before that conversation begins, I would hope we can put aside any previous animosity between any of the parties here." He raised a glass of wine. "For the betterment of the Continent, and a prosperous future for Asia." He watched as the delegations joined in on the toast, then began the main point of business.

"This is the map of Asia and the Pacific.The Nations that we represent are denoted on this map. But what do you all see? Any guesses? There is a vast quantity of unsettled Regions here. We think it is time that, as the civilizations of Asia, that we come together to maintain stability on the Continent. We propose that we join together as a protective force. Also, we are offering the idea of a small collective exploratory force, made up of members of each State. Such a force would report back to a Council of the Continent on the current status of the "wild lands" of Asia."

Stark sits down. "Opening the floor to discussion on this point."

Black/Unclaimed areas aren't uninhabited, there'd be nothing to explore since we're not in 1492, people still live there as they would IRL, the only difference is there's a lack of central authority.

May be, not challenging that, but it would be a good NPC opportunity, since there are no central authorities. It would be good to know the government types that are there in those areas.

At seeing the pit Hicks shifted his arm into a cannon like weapon and, shooting into the pit. The shot burst into a brilliant yellow light as the star round illuminated the room and walls of the pit as it slowly sailed down, down and, down further. It was only because of the optics of Cybertronians that they all could see the still descending star round before it finally petered out leaving everything once more in pitch darkness.

Taking an inactive grenade Havoc dropped it into the pit and began counting to wait and hear if anything went thud or somehow boom.

TOMB OF ANGELS, MUNDUS SANCTORUM — As the flare illuminated the massive pit, it was apparent that it seemed to have some sort of spiral carvings in the walls of the pit, not too dissimilar to rifling, as if something has bored its way up. The pit seemed to go down for quite a ways, with the flare going out long before it hit the bottom. In a fashion confirming the distance of the fall, it took about 40-50 seconds for the grenade to reach the bottom of the pit, about a 630 meter drop.

Meanwhile, further scans by the orbiting ship would reveal something peculiar about not just the area around the structure but the planet itself. Through deductive reasoning regarding the structure's innate ability to just absorb all sorts of radiation from scanners (radio, infrared, etc.), the scans revealed a massive network of similar material running underneath the surface of the entire planet, with various similar towers all connected to each other via underground tendrils. Even more frightening was the planet's core was gone, completely hollowed out. Something about this planet wasn't right.

At finding the pit teams where ordered to investigate the depths alongside squads from taskforce adamant and document everything they found. It was also fairly quickly found out by ground side that the problem with comms was more error of poorly maintained equipment than anything at fault with the unknown station.

PORTA OLYMPIAE — As the entered the pit, it was found that the walls of the tunnel were seemingly carved out of one singular piece of rocky material, with spiral carvings, much like rifling, lining the pit. The further inside the station they got, the more spotty the communications were, along with a growing feeling of being watched. Similar to the structure secretly discovered by the Cybertronians, something about the station seemed alive.

The team on the outside of the ring would find something equally strange. Each of the smaller rings was held in place by large tabs, similar to a brake caliper, with many small antennae at the bottom of the massive trenches. Additionally, the station's orientation was such that flying straight through the ring and keeping that course would eventually lead to the Galactic Core, however it was only coincidence, right?

The place was not on any star charts and seem to be a place from the old songs. Those of clan Kryze didn't know what they had found but the place was unlike anything yet found. Soon the call to others of the clan was made and a ragtag fleet of ships had gathered in the area.

I take it this is what was discussed earlier about exploring a relic world?

LOW EARTH ORBIT —

Admiral Tirpitz

The Tirpitz and her escort of 2 Victory-class Astral Destroyers and 1 Jackdaw-class Tactical Astral Destroyer were simply on a rudimentary when the call came from Kiel Astroport for them to redirect to Medial Atmospheric Altitude over the eastern Mediterranean.

After around 5-10 minutes of the ships laying motionless as they conducted pre-burn deorbiting procedures, the Tirpitz and her escorts began a deorbiting burn that'll place atmospheric entry somewhere just north of Cairo. Once the burn was complete, the ships deployed their reentry shields and drifted on a ballistic trajectory, with their arrive projected to happen after 10 minutes of reentry, from there it'd be another few hours before they made it to their destination. Constantinople.

Shortly thereafter, a direct telegram was sent to the Iberian government by the Foreign Affairs Officer. It was a rather, simple statement.

The Iberian military forces have until Commonwealth Forces reach Constantinople to vacate both Constantinople and Greece. Failure to do so will result in direct military action.

10 NAUTICAL MILES NORTH OF CAIRO — The Tirpitz and her escorts sat about 10,000' over the salty waters of the Mediterranean, the ominous obelisks of metal simply waiting for about 30 minutes before ascending to 16,000' and making their way North towards Constantinople, with the Tirpitz deploying her small complement of astral fighters to run a Combat Air Patrol in a 15 nmi radius around the fleet. The trip was projected to take longer than the planned 4 hours, due to delays regarding the Jackdaw tactical destroyer's atmospheric quarters deployment. The fleet was projected to arrive at Constantinople within 5 hours, with the Jackdaw ascending to a much higher 65,000', along with some astral fighters as escort, to provide extended targetting range for the Tirpitz's ballistic anti-astral ship missiles.

Is stability merely knowing some kind of system is in place or is stability that the people are not simply being treated like slaves," Idasho said. "And if the place is not stable, is it then our duty to restore balance to the place. If so, is it done militarily, humanitarian how would you wish this council of the continent to go about all of this," he then added. The Dominon could not been having to put out fires all over Asia while also protecting itself an understaffed castle was weak to sieges. Hanzo however was silent for this, eyes trained to spot and intercept any dangers to his charge.

(As a side note when I can't think of a name for a shinobi, I'll just fall back on Hatori Hanzo, but it is by no means the actual Hanzo. So, if you see Hanzo like this it's not the real Hanzo.)

THE CROWN FALLS SILENT

August 2083

Emperor Radigis sat alone in his study, the fireplace crackling and a candle lighting his table as the sun beamed through the clouds and in the windows.
At his desk he was writing, not documents for state.. no but a letter for his extended family. With his conquests for now coming to an end and his relationship with those across the seas continued to worsen due to politics, he believed it was time for a more personal touch.

To my Dearest Sister, grand-nieces and nephews,

It has been quite some time since our last correspondence and your absence at our recent ball pains me. However I know your griefs, with the actions of my empire, my actions. I will NOT make excuses for them. However we should look towards the future as public figures and family. This is why I invite you, Maria my darling sister, my grand nieces and grand-nephew including his beautiful wife, Charlotte. Mbeen talking about Arthur, their time as children in Britain, I believe he misses him after all this time. 

Caelric has turned into an extraordinary and strapping young gentleman, same with Cyrila. You'd be proud Maria. Both are kings in their own right, through means you probably don't agree with. However

Radigis then looks up from his letter as the doors to the room opened. His oldest son, Rikiar stood there, hands clasped behind his back with his red hair sitting on his shoulders, a beard on his face.
"Father... the science team is ready, so is everyone else... this site, it changes everything you know that right? ", Rikiar then walked in, coming closer to Radigis then speaking with a hushed tone.
"Our enemies must never know.. if things ever go back, we can go there and rebuild our strength."

Radigis found some wisdom in his son's words.. perhaps the science team should be eliminated after. With that vocally he didn't respond to Rikiar, only giving a nod before walking out.
Outside a vehicle was present, an AV that took to the skies and to a clearing in the woods within El Pardo. Waiting was King Morien, Prince Cyrila, and perhaps Radigis' favorite son Saphrax. Before them was an ancient Roman or Greek looking pavilion or gazebo with solid white walls, a short set up stairs leading inside to a platform of sort capable of levitation. All would enter and stand upon it, descending into the earth.

All remained silent in the darkness then there was light as the entire subterranean area became visible, a massive palace and other buildings. While it'd usually all he empty there'd be hundreds of people, the golden wings hovering above all as guards while scientists roamed the area.
As the platform touched the ground they all stepped off and towards the palace or temple, whatever it was.

As they went inside.. they'd see ash with small signs showing where the first people to discover the place burned. Where the crucified woman stood there was now an altar of fire.
Radigis looked back at his Heirs and scientists.... then Radigis held out his hand...
tandem .. dignus heres

An hour later above ground there was screams as Imperial Guardsmen pulled out the unconscious bodies of the Imperial family while the Golden Wings wailed though their screams weren't heard, they shambled around, trying to take off their armour.. burning from the inside but it was to no avail.
"For the love of God somebody help me!", a Guardsmen shouted as he pulled the body of the Emperor. With the call for help several guards that were trying to calm the wings rushed over and lifted Radigis. By sheer luck the wings and the Imperial Family weren't dead... or were they?

CURRENT DAY

The acting leader of the empire, Marshal Fernando de Solaris stood in front of the steps leading to the Imperial Throne, beside it were others for the heirs of the Emperor.. all comatose, seated with their swords on their laps, crowns upon their heads.
Fernando gave one last look to his Emperor before leaving the hall.. the Guardsmen within the hall stomped one of their feet against the floor in unison, bringing their rifles to Reverse arms as the massive doors closed.
