Announcements from the Imperial Court
The Emperor hosted a session of court recently, in which all citizens of the Empire were invited along with foreign guests. This is what our esteemed Emperor had to announce: "My loyal subjects...a month ago, I sat here, and spoke to you of the Cabbala threat. How they framed Helheim with the blowing up of our beloved bridge, and how they tried to frame us with the blowing up of Helheim's guard tower. These VILE demons have taken it a step further! They attack our families! They attack our merchants! I have personally visited a citizen, a dear friend of mine, who even now lays bed ridden, who was attacked by their vile dogs while out in the forest. I put out a call to arms to all citizens. If you have the will to fight, join the Imperial Army, so that we may show our strength and the honor of those that serve. The time comes soon, when we will make those under dwellers pay. Outside the threat of chaos threatening our way of life....and despite it, our Empire thrives and grows, as it has always done. I have walked the breath of the capitol, and I've noted each and every one of you have served it with honor and pride. I now leave over to my Imperial Court for their announcements, and then we will receive petitions from citizens and visiting dignitaries." The Emperor has put out a call for all citizens to stand strong against the threat of our oldest enemy, the Cabbala. If you have the courage to face these vile foes, then seek out Commander Kaito to join the Imperial Army. From Aura-Rah, Daimyo of the Jade Research Commission: "Very well said if I do say so myself. These monsters have festered in their caves for far too long but I am sure the emperor has more to say on that in a moment. As for myself, the Jade Research Commission is currently looking into the ongoing Kaiju situation. I know a few of you may have had a few run-ins with them recently. Reports of a previous undocumented one have come in from the area around the crater. The Commission will be launching an expedition to document and hunt the new arrival before following it into the mysterious structure located beneath the crater in.. About a week. Please if you are able bodied and available any assistance into this growing threat will be most appreciated. Simply seek me out for admittance into the Commission." The Kaiju are a threat from the Empire’s ancient past, during the time of Tsuiteru’s reign when the Empire was still hidden from the rest of Sincadere behind its fabled Mist Wall. If you have the courage to delve into the secrets of our past, seek out Aura-Rah in the Jade Research Commission. From Shiroi Tatsu, Daimyo of the Three Pillars Temple: "... The Three Pillars addresses all mages within and without the Empire. As always, our doors remain open to all who feel the call of magic, of the Kami and Yokai. All who seek to delve into knowledge are welcome among our ranks. And now more so than ever. We must always look forward to tomorrow, and we cannot do so without your aid. Among which, the Pillars would like to announce that we have begun more intensive research on more effectively combating the corruption inhabiting the Yokai forest, and purifying those afflicted. As such, all interested in joining the Three Pillars are requested to come speak with me at their earliest convenience." The Yokai Forest that lurks on the darkened island beneath our beloved homes is a new mystery to solve. If you are curious about it or interested in researching non-corruptive magic … then speak to Shiroi Tatsu in the Three Pillars Temple. Other incidents of note from the court was the acceptance of gifts from Leela Spurius-Ryder, Princess of Helheim, and the elven woman, Drahx, leader of the Order of Elenion. Calimaelen, elven healer and citizen of the Empire was relieved of his travel restrictions with a warning not to involve the Empire in future infractions with his partner. And last, but not least… our final noteworthy event from court was the promotion of Torashi Hashimoto. Torashi has served in the Imperial Army with distinction and was instrumental in the rescue of the royal children of the Emperor from the vile clutches of the Cabbala. For his honor and service, he has risen within the Celestial Order to the rank of Samurai (minor noble). Congratulations are in order and buy this new Samurai a drink! The Shibari Showdown The Floating Lotus Okiya hosted its FIRST of a monthly event to showcase the artistic and sensual nature of shibari. It was a night of beauty, sensuality, and rope-bound flesh. Citizens of the Empire and foreigners alike were in attendance to display themselves or enjoy the sights of the evening. Tsuiteru TenTen, Baroness of House Ryu in Helheim was declared the winner. The next showdown is scheduled to take place on July 8th at 11am (SLT). More Slime Crime: A brief update about these slimes that continue to create messy chaos in our peaceful home. The pair of slimes, Kerym (blue) and Kerim (pink) managed to slip out of the Three Pillars Temple and went on a rampage within the Floating Lotus Okiya and the hot springs outside. Thankfully, no one was reported to have received any major injuries during the encounter, and both of the troublesome slimes managed to be subdued. This is also a public service announcement to remind citizens to make sure you tightly seal all containers, especially sake. Business Updates This is a reminder that in order to be considered an official and legal business of the Empire, you must get your business license from the Imperial Herald. Businesses that fail to obtain and maintain a current license risk being fined and will NOT be featured in any business promotions through the Imperial Office or the Imperial Herald Updates.
