    This is the whole existing story of Piville. The ultimate collection of the roleplays of all threads, put together in chronological order. The oldest posts can be found at the bottom while the new ones are at the top. Please note that chapter headlines refer to the episodes above them.

    The story has been halted for a while. After reading through the first episodes of chapter1, I realized that it was time to re-write them. I want them to look a lot better. :3
    Current episode being rewritten: Chapter 1, Episode 2.
    (Please ignore any stilistical/plot cut between the episodes around the border of rewriting, this will be changed. :p)

    ~ Note: I am currently also trying to fix the chaos caused by brainless Copy-Pasting from Microsoft word. Especially formatting and images are ruined.

    3:51 A.M. – Control room. Glory Hall, Piville.

    “This helicopter…” Quart began. He was staring at a video taken by a reconnaissance drone during the attack; it showed @stoler202 escaping with a helicopter. “This helicopter can’t be a product of the Star Nation. Judged by its appearance and the fact that it managed to escape two interceptor planes it seems to be equipped with the newest technology available. Turbo boosters, Anti-Aircraft systems, outstanding maneuverability… it looks more like a product of the Union Laboratories. Now I wonder whether it was stolen, bought or… whether he was actually supported by @Exilenela and @clou44. Apparently the pieces I have thought to form separate puzzles can possibly be the same… one giant conspiracy against the Pivillean Empire. But who is behind this?

    314? Possible. I have been unable to locate him since destroying the town of Gooseberry…
    @Exilenela and @clou44? Likely. They are definitely the greatest enemy of the Pivillean Empire.
    @stoler202? Unlikely. He seems to be more of an inferior ally, used for both increased power and somebody in the front rows while the back row stays anonymous… but who knows.”
    He rose from his chair. “Anyway. Have you been able to locate the Piium?”

    The scientist answered immediately. “Yes, Piium has a strong radiation. While not directly harmful to humans, it is easily detectable via satellites.” He entered a few commands into the computer and a blue dot appeared on the digital map.

    “His current trajectory might lead to the conclusion that he is flying towards…” he continued.
    “The Union!” Quart exclaimed.

    “An understandable guess, yes. But if we consider his past movement…” He proceeded to enter more commands. More and more dots appeared, this time in a light blue colour. New dots continued to appear until a curvy line formed – the movement of @stoler202 within the past hours.

    “A spiral…” Quart said. “He is constantly nearing the center of this spiral… Piville .” He called the secretary of defense. “Order ten interceptors to the airspace over Piville, immediately. Prepare the anti-aircraft guns… all of them. @stoler202 is coming, and apparently he is armed. Oh, and his helicopter seems to be equipped with excellent technology, probably from the Union.” He turned to the scientist. “Do we have any ideas what this Z34 is?

    “Two ideas, sir. We managed to save two blueprint fragments from the self-destruction of the bunker complex. One is the Z34P1V, a Piium-fuelled backup generator. The other, however… is the Z34K3Y, a very powerful bomb which uses an uncontrolled chain reaction of the Piium’s self-disintegration.”

    “The second one seems to be a far more ‘efficient’ use of rare Piium for @stoler202… we can’t wait for him to reach Piville. Shoot him down as fast as possible.

    Suddenly, a beeping noise came from the speakers of Quart’s laptop. Somebody was requesting a communication.

    “@stoler202”, he said almost inaudibly. He accepted the call.
    “Mr. Quart, I want to negotiate with you”, he said.
    Quart laughed. “Negotiating? I could order dozens of fighter jets to blow up your helicopter. Surrender and hand over the Z34K3Y.”
    “So you found out about it…”, @stoler202 replied. “Anyway, this is exactly what I wanted to tell you about - I suspect that you have been tracking the Piium signals for the last few hours.” Quart nodded into the camera. “Now tell me, Mr. Quart… how much Piium would you estimate aboard of my helicopter?”

    Quart slooked over to the scientist. “How much?”
    He replied after thinking for a few seconds. “Judged by the radiation signature and by the fact that Piium radiation can only be blocked by multiple metres of concrete or lead… about 1.4 ounces, I would say.”

    Quart immediately stopped smiling, @stoler202 noticed it. “Ah, I see you understand, Mr. Quart… 1.4 ounces. But the Piium you put up as bait had a total mass of… 2.8 ounces? Now tell me, where did those fifty percent disappear to?”
    Quart said nothing, he was thinking. This was not good at all…
    “Basically, you are telling me that there are more Z34K3Y bombs, @stoler202?”
    “This is correct. I have one on my helicopter, but the other one is stored in a secret place… it will be used to destroy the capital of the Pivillean Empire if something happens to me.”

    A tense silence filled the room while Quart was trying to word an answer inside his head.
    “Very well…”, he finally said. “What do you want?"

    “I want a guarantee that Piville will not attack the remaining few bunkers of the Star Nation spread across the continent. In exchange, I will not attack Piville.”
    Quart was absolutely not happy with this. “I need time to think about this.”

    @stoler202 answered immediately. “Oh, absolutely no problem. I will give you… two hours.” With this being said he disconnected, leaving Quart no chance to protest.
    10:05 P.M. - Stoler202's office. Star Nation Bunker.

    Stoler202 was sitting in his chair, enjoying the way he tricked Quart. He was currently watching Piville news, to see if Davidson was missed.
    Suddenly, seargent Parker broke into his office:
    "Sir, we have sightings of Pivillean troops heading towards LosCraftos!"
    "Well, great! Looks like someone forgot to check if we were recorded! I have only one option now: to flee. Open The Tunnel."
    "The Tunnel? But it hasn't been used for ages!"
    "That's what you think. It goes on until LosCraftos is out of sight. There will be a helicopter hidden inside a mountain. I want it packed with food, fuel and load the the Z34's on it."
    "But sir!"
    "No buts, seargent. I have no choice. Quart is not getting me."

    10:25 P.M. - The Tunnel. Star Nation Bunker.

    "All the supplies have been loaded, sir. Where are you going?", said seargent Parker.
    "I don't know. Somewhere safe and far away. Although I will be gone, I would like you to do the evacuation anyways. Do not let Quart inside while you can. I have packed the main blueprints, but in case of emergency, burn the other ones. He must not know about the weapons we are developing. Finally, do your best at defending this place. If you fail you can flee using the vehicles that are here. The whole bunker is rigged with explosives, so when you leave, destroy it. However, I would like Dr. Harrison evacuated right now. He knows too much to be captured."
    Stoler202 got into the chopper and told the pilot to start the engine. Soon, the helicopter was nowhere in sight and Stoler202 was not to be found anywhere near LosCraftos. He possessed a new, powerful, yet secret weapon nobody knew about.
    Dr. Harrison was told to get into a small helicopter and was flown away to refuge.
    There was no way Quart was getting anything out of this attack.
    9:10 P.M. – Conference room. Glory Hall, Piville.

    Quart was sitting at the big table. Multiple screens had been set up in the room for his general staff to watch. He had ordered one of his soldiers – Davidson – to ‘visit’ the remains of the Star Nation and to search for evidence that @stoler202 was still alive. Quart looked at the screen of his laptop which displayed a spectrograph of a live transmission’s audio track, Davidson had called.
    @stoler202 is officially dead, Lord”, Davidson said. Quart smiled.
    “Great. I hope this is true this time”, he replied before Davidson terminated the call.s laptop, Davidson had called. ord"top, Davidson had called. d to to watch.

    He had expected this call. He had expected it for a few minutes already… he closed the program and opened a different one, it was a video livestream. He smiled. @stoler202 had thought he could trick him by threatening Davidson… Quart loved to add more secret technology to gadgets than the people using them knew of.

    Of course the communication watch included a microphone…but there were already multiple secret microphones incorporated well hidden in the agent clothing, not even the wearer knew about them. The watch actually had no real purpose for communication… but the fact that it included a secret camera made it invaluable for cases as this one.

    The livestream abruptly ended as the watch was destroyed, but he still had the audio recordings from the clothing. He continued to listen to the conversation. If he had correctly evaluated @stoler202, then he knew exactly what would happen next. He would not be disappointed – as Davidson fell to the floor Quart knew exactly that he had been right. @stoler202 had done the same Quart would have done, eliminating any risks. He grinned for a moment, and then remembered that he had just lost one of his agents. He stopped smiling. “Well, well. Apparently the pathetic remains of the Star Nation have committed an act of hostility, killing an unarmed Pivillean. Also, we now have decisive evidence that @stoler202 is alive. He turned to the general of the land forces, the general of the air force and the admiral of the fleet. I want all three of you to mobilize your troops. I want two hundred elite soldiers, seven tanks, three gunboats and four bombers to invade LosCraftos today . The soldiers will be half parachute troopers and half infantry. Bring me @stoler202 alive .
    8.35 P.M. - Meeting room. Star Nation bunker.

    Everyone took their seat and Stoler202 started his speech.
    "Ladies and gentleman, I have gathered you discuss important matters. The first question is what we should do with the civilians."
    "Supplies are running out in the underground. Shop stocks can't last forever. What I suggest, is that we evacuate them to another town, preferably as far as possible", said Sargent Parker.
    "I know a town, I will contact the mayor soon. How will we get them there?"
    "I think 3 helicopters should do. Are you coming?"
    "No. Quart is supposed to think I am dead. I am not going outside, since I do not want to be murdered. You shall be in charge of the operation."
    "Alright, when should we start?"
    "Tomorrow, today is to late. Onto the next question: Is the Z34 Ultimate complete?"
    "Yes, sir. The prototype is ready. Soon there shall be 10 of these deadly weapons", said Dr. Harrison.
    Suddenly someone burst into the room.
    "Sir, there appears to be a Pivillean spy in LosCraftos!"
    "Get hold of him and i will ask him a few questions. Now, lets carry on with our meeting. Dr. Harrison, I am beginning to wonder something: who sold you the piium?"
    "He appeared to be a Pivillean, I am not sure however. He said that he had found a random stash of it."
    Stoler202's mood rapidly changed. Something was obviously not right.
    "Well, great! Nobody just finds a stash of piium, it is too rare to lie around. From what i think, the whole sale was a trap."
    "Well, we got the piium none the less, right?"
    "Don't you understand? It was sold by Quart himself. Obviously he did it for a reason. Now, explain this spy. Why was he here?"
    "You think you are being looked for?"
    "Exactly! My cover is blown! I will be sure to ask the spy some questions now..."

    9.10 P.M. - Stoler202's office. Star Nation Bunker.

    "The identifier says his name is James Davidson. Born in Piville, served as a soldier there", said Dr. Harrison.
    "Alright James, you can choose the easy way or the hard way. All i want to do is ask you a few questions", said Stoler202
    "I will not tell you anything!"
    Stoler202 turned around and calmly said: "Alright Dr. Harrison, bring in the equimpent, he wants it the hard way!"
    Dr. Harrison put a little box on the table.
    "Wwww... what is that?"
    "Oh, that's just an electric shocker which we connect to uncooperative people's hands"
    "Nooo! Please don't hurt me, I will answer your questions!"
    "Very well then, does Quart know that i am alive?"
    "Yes, my mission was to confirm."
    "That's what i expected. How much does Quart know?"
    "He only knows that you are alive and wants to see you."
    "Where is Johnson?"
    "CEO of SNI? He is working for Quart now."
    "Well, that's great. There are only two options now: either we get him back here, or eliminate him. Is there any possibility?"
    "From what I heard, He is heading to another nation for supplies."
    "Great, I will five orders to shoot his plane down. This is all i needed you to answer, was it that hard?"
    "Now could you please tell Quart that I am dead?"
    The spy was given his communication watch.
    "Stoler202 is officialy dead, Lord"
    "Great. I hope this is true this time."
    The watch was taken away and thrown into the incinerator. Stoler202 got up from his chair and pulled out a gun and said:
    "I am sorry Mr. James, I have no choice."
    "But, but, you promised to keep me alive!"
    "Technically I did not. However, you survived the pain of torture. The problem is, I can't let you go. It is too dangerous for me to risk it. Once again, I am sorry about this. Goodbye."
    Stoler202 pulled the trigger and the spy fell from the chair motionless.
    "I would like to see the Z34 Ultimate, Dr. Harrison", said Stoler202 like nothing happened.
    7:36 A.M. – Lord Quart’s office. Glory Hall, Piville.

    Lord Quart was sitting at his desk, looking down at the report. A few days ago he had ordered to set up a small piece of Piium for sale at the black market. And now… apparently somebody had bought the bait.
    “Dr. Harrison… I think I have seen this name before. But where... where...?” He knew where he had to check – in the largest room of Glory Hall which filled three floors underground.


    10:17 A.M. – Archive, second floor. Glory Hall, Piville.

    After hours of searching he had finally found it, hidden between two bookshelves. He pulled out the dossier and blew off the dust. Indeed, there it was – “Dr. Edmund Harrison, PhD of applied sciences and engineering… this is it”, Quart said to himself and began to read. Sometimes he murmured over certain phrases. “Originated from Star Nation… Studied in Piville, Parisian district…” Suddenly his finger stopped following the lines and remained over one certain sentence. “As of February 2015 it is proven that he is one of the most important subordinates of @stoler202, being responsible for weapon and defense technologies…” he read aloud. He became silent as he thought. Suddenly, he stood up and went back to his office. He was still missing one piece of the big puzzle…


    2:02 P.M. – Lord Quart’s office. Glory Hall, Piville.

    “And you are absolutely sure”, Quart asked.
    “There is no doubt”, the voice replied from the phone. “The encrypted transmission we managed to decode is definitely from…”
    “Yes, yes. Thank you”, Quart interrupted him and terminated the call.


    2:14 P.M. – Conference room. Glory Hall, Piville.

    The general staff meeting was going on, everybody was talking. Suddenly, Quart opened the door and entered the room. He looked absolutely not happy and silence fell over the room immediately, everybody watched Quart with fear.
    Quart was furious. “Where are those self-proclaimed experts who identified @stoler202?”
    One of the generals replied. “They have returned to their towns. One from LesMines, two from France. The origins of two others are not known to us, but the fifth is a Pivillean, sir.”
    Quart sat down in his luxurious armchair at the end of the room. “Alright. Find out where the other two are. I want them to feel my wrath – they were wrong. @stoler202 is alive. Further investigations need to be conducted”, he said with a very angry tone in his voice.
    “But… sir… that is impossible. @stoler202 is officially dead. You must be wrong…”, one of the attending general staff members replied. Quart’s eyes narrowed. He rose from his chair and walked over to him, looking him directly into the eyes.
    “Listen. I have received undeniable evidence of his survival. His identification was incorrect – and either the experts are at fault or I will make you responsible since you were the one responsible for the explosion of his jet. Now consider what I have just said and tell me the truth… who is at fault? You… or the experts?”

    After a moment of tense silence, he replied. "They, sir."

    Quart smiled. “Well, well… if you say so, then it probably really is their fault… now go. Go and let them feel my ire. And before you ask… no, I don’t need any survivors of my anger. Also… find @stoler202 and bring him here, also conduct further research on the real victim.” With this being said Quart turned away, left the room and slammed the door behind him.
    Stoler202 was sitting in his chair, watching the Piville news.
    "Well what did you expect, Dr. Harrison?", said Stoler202, leaning back in his chair and turning off the TV.
    "I don't know, sir. Quart is gaining infinite power. He can kill and destroy anything. Who is going to stop him anyways?"
    "I knew that. I wouldn't be stupid enough to go to Piville in person. What i do not understand however, is how they could confirm it is me. They never actually met me, nor have any record of me. I feel sorry for agent Brown however, he was one of our finest agents, yet he is now gone."
    "He was very important, helped out in many operations, however I am employed to engineer weapons here, right?"
    "Correct. You are in charge of all defense securities of the bunker facility. Make sure nobody comes in unnoticed. How many survived the barrage?"
    "Most of them. Everyone heard the alarm and rushed underground. There is around 20 survivors out of 30. Should we let them in here?"
    "Under no circumstances. This place is top secret. What is the progress on the Z34 Ultimate?"
    "Under development. We managed to get hold of piium, said to be a very rare element. It will be used."
    "Where did you get that?"
    "Ahh, the blackmarket. Most rare items are gotten there. Items from all nations if I may say so."
    "I am hoping to see the weapon done soon. However I must stay low, to ensure Quart thinks I am dead. He will be furious."
    Stoler202 turned away and started viewing CCTV footage from the train station.
    5:48 A.M. - Atrium. Glory Hall, Piville.

    Lord Quart was sitting in the atrium of the pivillean seat of government. Since the atrium was surrounded by walls and it was still very early, the environment appeared in a gloomy light, barely usable to read the newspaper. He was staring up into the sky, watching the starry sky slowly transforming into the red dawn of the day. He looked down at his copy of today’s Piville News. After yesterday’s tragic airplane ‘accident’, five independent experts have confirmed that the victim of this explosion was in fact the leader of the Star Nation, @stoler202. “Of course he is”, Quart thought. “I wouldn’t want to put so much effort into obliterating the wrong person.”


    9:21 A.M. – Lord Quart’s office. Glory Hall, Piville.

    Once again he looked down at the map stretching across his desk; it was the map of the Pivillean Empire. Since the war had begun it had expanded greatly, now stretching over most parts of the continent. Resistance against the Empire had been fully eradicated at this point, except the Union in the north. This was still the major problem Quart was confronted with.

    “Maybe…it is about time that somebody teaches the Union a lesson” he said while calling his general staff.


    10:01 A.M. – Conference room. Glory Hall, Piville.

    “Ladies and gentlemen, I am glad you made it here in the short timeframe since my announcement to you”, he greeted his general staff. “I have called because in my opinion it’s about time we teach the Union a lesson, especially @clou44. While @Exilenela continued to follow the path he had taken until this point, @clou44 was somebody to worry about. “I have received multiple reports about Union Laboratories developing nuclear weapons, funded by one of the Union leaders, @clou44. Yes, the very @clou44 we have exchanged against the Unova a while ago.” Before anybody had the time to question the exchange for such a powerful enemy against a powerful battleship, Quart continued. “So far two nuclear bombs have been manufactured. This was the bad news. The good news, however, is that both the facilities for nuclear development and the storage units for the nuclear products are located in the same town. And the fantastic news… is the fact that I now know in which town they are located.” He showed them a map of the Union. “This is why we will use the one and only nuclear bomb Piville owns so far on… Clouverville”, he said and pointed at the location on the map. “Clouverville is the nuclear development town of the Union, founded and led by @clou44.

    “When will the attack happen”, one of the generals asked. Quart smiled.

    “Today.”


    2:59 P.M. – Control room. Glory Hall, Piville.

    Quart was staring at multiple screens at the same time. One of them displayed the missile silo of the nuclear ICBM, one showed a digitalized map of the continent and ton three screens he saw the view of multiple reconnaissance drones over Clouverville. He looked at the countdown display. The missile would start at exactly 3 P.M.

    He began to count the remaining seconds. “Five… four… three… two… one…” Finally, the counter reached zero. “Go”, he shouted. In the same moment the engine of the rocket ignited, slowly propelling the projectile out of the silo and into the sky, leaving a big trail of dense smoke behind.

    Quart followed the red dot on the screen, just as he had done only a few days ago when eliminating the Star Nation. After exactly four minutes and twenty-seven seconds the three screens showing the drone views lit up bright before only showing black. “Apparently these drones are about as resistant against nuclear explosions as Clouverville”, Quart laughed. When a fourth drone arrived over the town ten minutes later, he saw the true chaos the explosion had caused. Remains of the mushroom cloud were still floating in the air, the radioactivity was interfering the transmission. The former town of Clouverville… now only burning ruins were left of it.


    6:01 P.M. – Lord Quart’s office. Glory Hall, Piville.

    He sat in front of the TV. Of course the complete destruction of Clouverville was the prime topic in the evening news. He watched the speech of @clou44 as she addressed both the Union and the ‘remaining free nations’, as she called it. Quart only listened loosely, occasionally hearing phrases such as ‘a national tragedy’ or her talking about ‘thousands of casualties’. He smiled – now both @clou44 and @Exilenela had a good impression about what he was willing to do to achieve his goals – everything.
    6 A.M. – A24 airforce base, pivillean territory.

    Lord Quart stood at the end of the runway at an airforce base a little outside of Piville, the sun rising in the east. He heard the sound of four engines which quickly became louder as the pivillean P4-Mk2 jet descended. @stoler202 and his CEO Johnson were arriving in time. He looked at the list @stoler202 had sent him the day before.
    1. Safe landing space, Johnson is arriving by jet.” – Done. This airforce base was one of the most secure ones in the whole Pivillean Empire.
    2. A luxury room in one of your finest hotels.” – Done. The Plaza Hotel was one of the most luxurious of the whole continent, located in the heart of Piville.
    3. Permission for me (@stoler202) to witness all negotiation.” – Done, he was arriving together with Johnson.
    4. 2 bodyguards.” – More than done. Quart had assigned dozens of pivillean elite soldiers to guard them on their way to Quart’s office.
    5. Safe return of Johnson to LosCraftos.” – Not yet done, but Quart planned to keep his word.
    Soon after the jet had landed Quart, Johnson and @stoler202 entered a limousine to bring them to Quart’s conference room, escorted by helicopters and forming the center of a convoy of military vehicles guarding them. Quart was able to see that his guests were a little nervous. After all they were in hostile territory, surrounded by sheer military power. He smiled – he loved to be in advantageous positions… but nothing was supposed to happen to those accompanying him.

    After around ninety minutes they passed Glory Hall, the pompous seat of government. Another two minutes passed until they reached the Plaza Hotel. They agreed to meet at 2 P.M. and that the limousine would bring them to him.



    2 P.M. – Conference room. Glory Hall, Piville.


    Lord Quart turned away from the window when he heard a knock at the door and he asked them to come in. Johnson walked in front of @stoler202, carrying a briefcase. Quart thanked both of them for being on time, treating his guests with respect.

    “Now that we are here, let us begin”, Johnson said and opened his briefcase. “I would like to present you…” Quart raised his hand, signalling him to remain silent.

    “If I may say something first…” Quart began.

    “The products of SNI – Star Nation Industries – are only a secondary, if not tertiary, reason why I requested you to come here. My prime motivation are two questions… where did you get the P-1 blueprints from and how much of your SNI infrastructure is still intact?” Both @stoler202 and Johnson were quiet, they hadn’t expected this question.

    “While I confess that my bombarding of the Star Nation might have been a little… hasty decision, it was a decision led by the fact that somebody…” – his staring eyes inescapably focused both of them – “illegally purloined top secret construction blueprints. And if somebody steals secret but harmless plans, who could guarantee me that they would not also steal far more… dangerous plans?” Neither @stoler202 nor Johnson knew what to say, this meeting was differing greatly from what they had expected, it was more of an interrogation than a meeting. Finally, Johnson confessed, his voice trembled with slight signs of fear.

    “M-Mr. Quart, m-my company had received an order from @stoler202 to produce pivillean P-1 tanks, he provided us with the construction blueprints.” Quart turned away from them and walked towards the window, staring into the distance. “@stoler202… is that correct, and if it is, where did you get the blueprints from?”

    “I stumbled upon them when a troop of scouts found an abandoned bunker in the wild around our nation; apparently it used to be run by @Exilenela during the first pivillean war last September”, he answered.

    “@Exilenela… I should have suspected that…”, Quart said, more to himself than to his guests. “Thank you for being honest. Now we may continue. Mr. Johnson, you may show me some of your SNI products, but please answer me one last question… is the SNI infrastructure still capable of fulfilling any orders after the surface of the Star Nation has been reduced to rubble?”

    Johnson pulled multiple charts from his briefcase. “Yes, sir. Around twenty percent of the Star Nation Industries have been destroyed, but eighty percent are located either in the underground or as local branches in other towns and nations and are functioning properly.”


    7 P.M. – Conference room. Glory Hall, Piville.

    Lord Quart stared through the window, watching the sunset outside which tinted the room into a gloomy red. Johnson and he had spent the last few hours discussing weapon deliveries for Piville. The main success of this discussion had been the ordering of SNI-76K20 and SNI-11B42, meaning a special type of high-explosive grenades and machine guns for the pivillean infantry. He said goodbye to both of them, his elite soldiers would escort them back to the airport.

    However, they would return to the Star Nation in separate planes.

    Quart had planned everything from the beginning – he remembered @stoler202’s fifth condition. ‘Safe return of Johnson to LosCraftos.
    He smiled. @stoler202 had made a mistake… a big one. During the meeting he had indirectly received a confirmation of his suspicion – Johnson was not dependant on @stoler202, quite the opposite. He was theoretically independent, restricted by him. Since he had no real relevance for his deal with Johnson, he would get a special treatment… Quart smiled. It wasn’t really his fault that @stoler202’s jet had an unfortunate… malfunction which caused the fuel lines and the oxygen lines to pump a highly explosive gaseous mixture into the cabin as soon as it would reach cruising altitude… and of course it was not his fault that the pilot was informed of this and would use a parachute to escape the jet in time.
    Quart’s smile grew even wider – he was happy that @stoler202 had survived the barrage because he had introduced him to Johnson. But now, since he was no longer of any use, it was time to fix the fact that he had survived at first.

    Once more he stared out of the window, this time for multiple hours until the TV screen in the background began to show breaking news of the tragic explosion of a pivillean jet in international air space.

    Quart: No, it is quite obvious for any leader to have a bunker. Explain this however, who is Johnson?
    Johnson: Me? I am the Steve Johnson, CEO of Star Nation Industries, the largest manufacturing company in Star Nation. Everything is produced by my company.
    Stoler202: As you can see, Johnson is in charge of copying the P-1 tanks. I only made the order. However, Star Nation had absolutely no plans of war with Piville. I needed to improve defense to prevent enemy attacks.
    Quart: Defense or attack, I do not want to take any chances. Enjoy your new towns!
    Stoler202: I will be sending Steve Johnson to Piville. Should you wish any military products shipped, let me know and I will give orders. Now, since Johnson is coming for negotiation, I have attached a list of things I want fulfilled for his arrival:
    1. Safe landing space. Johnson is arriving by jet.
    2. A luxury room in one of your finest hotels.
    3. Permission for me to witness all negotiation
    4. 2 bodyguards.
    5. Safe return of Johnson to Los Craftos.

    Quart: Want quite a lot, huh? Alright, I will be expecting him by tomorrow. And don't you try anything!

    Lord Quart stood at one of the windows of his office and looked over to the harbor, recognizing the Unova in the distance. He enjoyed the sight of the Unova every single time he saw this glorious battleship formerly owned by the Union. After staring into the distance for what seemed like an hour, he went back to his desk. The report he had received was something special…he read it again. This promised to be an interesting case. Apparently somebody had been able to copy the Pivillean P-1 tank class.

    “Theoretically, this is not much of a problem. Thanks to the head developer @FiFyFoFumOtter the P-1 series is outdated and extremely weak compared to the new P-2 series, the old ones were the first pivillean tank model ever…however, spying on us and copying our technology – as weak and old as it might be – is a severe affront and as a proud nation, we can’t tolerate this.”

    He picked up the phone and dialled the secretary of defence’s number. Without any introduction, he began. “I have seen your report about this plagiarist… @stoler202… let’s make this as quickly as possible. I assume a barrage of two dozen nuclear missiles should suffice. Launch in two minutes. And no, this is not a request. It is an order.” With this he terminated the call and walked through a door into his control room. After exactly two minutes twenty-four red dots appeared on a digital world map, moving towards the twin towns of LesMines and LosCraftos, both owned by @stoler202. Quart smiled – this was what he had requested, indeed. His smile grew even wider when he looked at the transmitted images of a pivillean reconnaissance drone ten minutes later. “Perfect”, he said to himself. The drone was showing a completely destroyed landscape, only some smoking ruins indicated that this had once been a town. Quart remained inside the control room for another four minutes, enjoying the sight of the smoldering debris that had once been a town. Then he left the command room, went back into his office and stamped the file as “SOLVED – SUBJECT ELIMINATED”.
    314 wandered through the tunnels under Piville. It was a complete darkness, only slightly illuminated by his lantern. His steps echoed inside the tunnel. He was very proud of this system. He had built it by himself over the years, merging corridors from the Piian ruins, the sewers and secret paths into one big system that allowed those with a map of it to travel to any important point in Piville.

    Over the course of the past few weeks he had hidden himself down here, trying to fight Quart from the underground. When the war began 314 didn’t believe that Quart could win… but this opinion had slightly faded over the past days, especially after bringing the Unova to the harbor of Piville.

    He finally reached one of the destinations he had marked on his map. He stood in a big hall, many pillars supporting the roof. This was a part of the sewers, but a very important one. 314 opened his backpack and took out multiple parcels. In the shine of his lantern he saw multiple wires and metallic elements encasing a small deactivated lamp. He proceeded to place a total amount of eight parcels on various pillars, activating them one by one. When he finished, he looked back at his work. Eight red lights were blinking in the dark. “Perfect”, he said to himself. “The fifth location is rigged with explosives, too. Only one more to go.” With this he turned away, toying around with a small remote control. He faded away into the darkness and silence fell upon the hall with its blinking lights.
    Quart was standing at the railing of the Piville-II, one of the largest cruisers the Pivillean fleet had to offer. Staring through his binoculars, he could see a ship at the horizon. He looked closely and was finally able to recognize the fluttering Union flag at the rear of the ship as it came closer. Directly below the union flag a second one had been added, showing the emblem of the Pivillean Empire. He went to the rear of the Piville-II and looked behind the ship. Five other ships were following his, four of them being gunboats sailing under the Pivillean flag. The fifth ship, however, showed the flag of the United Nations, the UN. Quart smiled – his allies were supporting him well. “An aircraft carrier, supplied by the United Nations… @Jackson_G14 really is a powerful ally”, he said to himself. "I think he might become very useful in the future..."

    The Unova had arrived at the Piville-II, the gunboats were surrounding her while the UN aircraft carrier stayed behind to intervene if necessary.

    Quart greeted @Exilenela as he boarded the Unova. He had taken many precautions to ensure that @Exilenela would not trick him.

    Quart had ordered one hundred pivillean soldiers aboard of the Unova before she had left the Union harbour; this had been one of his many instructions towards @Exilenela. “Ah, the Unova. A great battleship, indeed”, Quart said as he walked past @Exilenela. “I see that one of your smaller ships has come with you to bring you back home….very well.” He turned to Admiral Strout, the commander of the Pivillean navy. “Bring @clou44 up here. The sooner we are done, the better.”

    After @clou44 and @Exilenela had boarded their support ship to bring them home, Strout turned towards Quart. “Sir, what should we do now? We could easily eradicate our enemies by sinking their ship now. Should I load the cannons and…”

    “No”, Quart interrupted him. “Killing @clou44 and @Exilenela right now would cause nationwide uproars. Executing agitators is fine... but not if they have whole nations behind them. Especially not if there are too many witnesses”, he said, pointing at the UN aircraft carrier. “For now I will keep my word and keep the truce as long as necessary while we start our rearmament. Anyway, with this problem being out of the way we should now return to the harbor of Piville…I want to enjoy the sight of the Unova, this masterpiece of engineering."

    Quart smiled. With the Unova in his possession and the United Nations as an ally, the continuation of the war after the truce would be wonderful.
    It was still early in the morning when Quart entered his luxurious office. The happiness from only a few days ago had partially faded, the territorial borders of the Pivillean Empire and the Union had not moved at all for a while now. The border between the two nations was mainly consisting of trenches and land mines with tanks and bunkers on both sides. Airstrikes could not be executed because of an extensive flak defence on both sides, either.

    He thought of the message he had received from @dgam02, he had dared to force him to release @clou44. Maybe he would actually do that…an idea formed in his head, an idea he considered to be a fantastic one. But first, he took a note about the possibility of assigning a sniper to @dgam02 just for fun.

    He picked up the phone and established a connection into the town of France.

    @Exilenela sat in his demolished office, multiple windows had burst to pieces when the bomb detonated, many shards and pieces of plaster and bricks were lying on the ground in his office. Each of the broken windows had temporarily been replaced with a transparent canvas. He thought of @clou44. Was she dead or was she somewhere where nobody could find her? Suddenly, the phone rang.

    “Hello @Exilenela.“, Quart began. “I hope you are enjoying your…newly decorated office.”
    After a few seconds of silence, @Exilenela reacted. “…so it was actually you who is responsible for this explosion…”
    “Oh yes, of course”, Quart openly admitted. “Why should I deny it? We are at war, after all.”
    Once again, silence. “Why are you calling, Quart?”
    “Because I have a certain somebody as a prisoner you might…want to get back.”
    @Exilenela immediately listened. “Do you mean @clou44?” he asked.
    “Oh yes, I actually do. I captured her a while ago to weaken your Union…but apparently you have been a good replacement.” Quart continued.
    “Prove that you actually captured her and are not bluffing…”
    “I could send you @clou44’s head…that would be very distinct evidence.” He said without an emotion in his voice.
    @Exilenela shuddered. “Actually, I would prefer to see @clou44 alive…what do you want in exchange?”
    “Ah, I am glad you ask. There are two things…” @Exilenela listened carefully and decided to take notes. “First of all, the war about the northern border of the Pivillean Empire is becoming annoying. My first demand is that both of us accept the border as it currently is and both of us retract our troops from the border. However, I will be allowed to keep a minimal amount of soldiers there to prevent any breach of this agreement from your side.” @Exilenela thought for a while. This was a very big demand…but @clou44 would be worth it. “Alright”, he said. “I will agree to that. And what…is your second demand?”
    Quart smiled. @Exilenela’s resistance was about to break. “My second demand…is of a very material nature. I demand the ownership of the Unova, the flagship of the Union navy.” @Exilenela stared out of the broken window for over a minute this time. “You…can’t be serious…” he began. “Oh, I actually am. But the problem for you is…you have no other choice. What do you think, how trustworthy would you still be of @clou44, the second Union leader, was publicly executed and it was revealed that you could have saved her?”

    @Exilenela finally gave in. “Alright, Mr. Quart. I…accept your conditions.”

    Lord Quart, please. I knew you would be reasonable. I will soon contact you with the exact details of this exchange. And don’t even try to trick me by placing any explosive charges on the Unova or leaving any soldiers behind at the border”, Quart said and terminated the call. He smiled. The Unova was a cruiser with amazing firepower and armour…and soon it would be his.
    A piece of paper on which @clou44 noted down her thoughts while in captivity.
    [​IMG]
    “…dozens of injuries and at least eight casualties have been reported so far, officials assume the numbers to rise even more as the excavation continues. The explosion which completely destroyed a boulevard and damaged multiple intersecting streets seems to be the result of a terrorist attack according to @Exilenela, one of the Union leaders present in the town at the time of the disaster. The town of France, owned by the missing @clou44, was – until today – known for its outstanding design and greatness. It is also the town housing the headquarters of the Union since the war between the Union and the Pivillean Empire began.

    Meanwhile Lord Quart, leader of the Pivillean Empire, is continuing his menacing policy. This afternoon an assault team which tried to invade Piville was captured. The members of the corps, led by the self-proclaimed “tyranny fighter” @kman4000 have been publicly executed in the evening along with multiple other hostages, some of them had been held captive for four months. Observers regard this as an act of outstanding radicalness and surmise the war to continue for the next weeks or even mon…”

    Quart turned off the TV and leaned back in his armchair, staring out of the window. He reflected everything the news had mentioned. The main topics on the international media were the war and the bombing of France – wonderful. The attack directly next to the Union headquarters had killed multiple secretaries, effectively weakening @Exilenela’s General Staff and with it the Union’s stability. He looked over to the map on his desk. The Union had expanded greatly in the north, following the same strategy as Quart and invading neutral cities and nations instead of only fighting enemies. “@Exilenela is a hypocrite”, Quart thought. “He became enraged when I conquered neutral territory and publicly stated that he will do anything to make the independent nations stay as free as they used to be, and now he is invading them himself.”, he thought with a smile. If he was already starting to deceive his own principles, then one of Quart’s many goals had already become true – this was definitely not good for @Exilenela’s reputation.

    Quart put the glass he had held for a while now onto the desk. It was a very fine glass. Crafted from high-quality materials, decorated with various ornaments and filled with crystal-clear water from the glacier around fifty miles away from Piville. It was one of the many luxuries he had as the leader of the Pivillean Empire - and he planned to keep all of them at all costs. Of course the luxury was not the main incentive to win the war, but it was a nice bonus.

    He smiled again; it was something he had done many times in the past week. There had been many good news up to this point - but the highlight had yet to come…
    Lord Quart looked up from the mahogany desk in his luxurious office, a giant map stretching across the desk’s entire surface. On it the current borders of the Pivillean Empire were marked, a different colour for every day since the war had begun. He smiled to himself. Within one week he had conquered many of the surrounding nations and towns, for example those of @Ian__D. His smile grew even wider. He had considered going to war with Piville, and Quart had reacted fast and effectively, taking over his towns in only three days.

    He glanced out of the window, it was storming outside. The patter of rain against the window was the only sound disturbing the silence except an occasional roll of thunder. He looked at the old, mechanical clock standing at the other end of the room. It was 2am. He focused on the map once more; there was one single thing that worried him.

    In the time of one week, the Pivillean Empire had greatly expanded to the east, the south and the west. The only problem…was the Union attacking from the north, led by @Exilenela and normally also @clou44. Since the war had begun large pivillean territories changed their flag and were now under the protection of the union. Quart was very happy with the current status; the Union had the potential of becoming a real threat. He made some notes for the secretaries, giving them further instructions. It was necessary to further increase the armament and maybe send more troops to the north instead of other directions.
    Quart smiled once more. Despite @Exilenela being so successful, he still had one final advantage – hostages.

    To be exact, one special hostage.

    It had taken much effort to kidnap @clou44 without leaving any traces behind, but he had managed to do so. She was his prime hostage, as one of the two Union leaders she was more important than any other hostage he still held captive. “With @clou44 being imprisoned in Piville, the other hostages seem to have become worthless”, he thought. “Especially the two remaining hostages from the New Year’s Eve celebration are starting to become annoying. After all there is not much left of their former nations. Some parts have been bombed to pieces, others have been taken over and included into the Pivillean Empire…”

    He wrote the final note for the night, a note to the prison guards. Then he put out the single candle lighting the room and closed the door behind him. Once more the room became completely silent, covered in eerie darkness.

    From: Exilenela
    To: Lord Quart, leader of Piville.

    Lord Quart,

    For multiple months you have been breaking international guidelines by taking hostages. You have blatantly broken the agreements of the Pivillean treaty by beginning rearmament using tanks, jets and missiles. We – the union – can no longer tolerate this and have decided to act. With the signing of this document, the union – led by @clou44 and myself, @Exilenela – is officially at war with Piville.

    Since clou44 is nowhere to be found since multiple weeks and it is not even sure whether she is still alive, I am now officially fulfilling my duty as a representative and replace @clou44 until her possible return.

    May the war begin. Enjoy the union’s forces destroying your town.

    Signed,
    @Exilenela, one of the two union leaders.

    The events of the past few weeks continue to appear in my head...I escaped from the town of Gooseberry, but it was too late. The proud town owned by @Zeurals has been burnt down by Quart and his mercenaries. I spent hours climbing over the charred debris of this previously wonderful town. @Zeurals has been missing since the catastrophe, I have no idea whether he died, fled or was captured. Maybe I will never find out...

    Since I managed to find a radio in one of the destroyed houses, I heard many bad news. @Danielman33, the hostage who managed to escape, has been assassinated. He was supposed to supply us with more armed forces for the fight against Quart, but it looks like as if this will not happen now...and in the meantime, @Exilenela is still acting as if he wants a war between his empire and the nation of Piville. Why? What is his goal? And where is @clou44?

    I need to reach Piville...I am horribly equipped, but Piville is the only reachable place for me. The fort is too far away to flee to it...

    I had to escape. The town of Gooseberry, owned by @Zeurals, is no longer secure. There was an explosion at the market today - 12 injuries, 2 casualties. The cause: Semtex, the same plastic explosive used in the fort bombing. It could be a coincidence - but if the past has taught me one thing, then it is that coincidences are rare. Because I assume that my false identity has been revealed and my cover has literally blown up, I have left the town of Gooseberry. At this point, nobody of my allies knows that I am still alive.

    On a side note, events in Piville began to become even more dramatic. One hostage, @Danielman33, has been confirmed to have escaped from Quart's reach. @Imabankthing and @ModernPerils are however still imprisoned.

    This increases the pressure on "Lord" Quart - he needs the hostages to prevent their nations from attacking. While @Danielman33 has now taken the place of the delegate of his nation in the council, the delegates of @Imabankthing's and @ModernPerils' nations are still busy with negotiations. However, I doubt that they will be successful. After all, they are dealing with Quart.

    I think it is now up to me to return to Piville. I have been away for far too long - if outer pressure fails, then it's necessary to attack from the inside.

    However, as it currently stands, @Exilenela seems to be working towards a war. @clou44 is still missing and thus only half of the forces as last time are available. The outcome of the last war was predictable, but if he would start a new one, I honestly don't know who would win.

    Two weeks ago everything went wrong.
    Everything.

    Three casualties in the fort and @Exilenela was assassinated and heavily injured once again, right before his depart from the fort. The culprit - one of the people I trusted the most. He had access to multiple high-security areas, he even was in charge of the weapon chamber. I trusted him with many secrets, I even talked to him about the bombing of the fort. And now...it appears as if he was responsible for it as well. @FiFyFoFumOtter...he has escaped to Piville. It is safe to assume that he was the contact of Quart inside our fort. He left us, taking blueprints and code tables with him. Now I also understand how Quart was able to construct the tank inside the Piian ruins - @FiFyFoFumOtter helped him.

    Ever since I managed to escape the explosion of the nuclear power plant I lived in the town of Gooseberry. Having forged an alternate identity I was able to collect information about the recent events without being found by Quart. And the information upsets me - he has reactivated the missile silos and is constructing multiple tanks, especially the M902 Hydrictis developed by @FiFyFoFumOtter. By doing this Quart is blatantly breaking the treaty of Piville from October 2014. I wonder how @Exilenela and @clou44 will react to this as the winners of the Pivillean war and official supervisors. On the other hand, they seem to have - at least partially - lost control of the situation since Quart managed to become the Pivillean leader. As well, as it currently stands @Exilenela is still heavily wounded and unable to react to this while I haven't seen @clou44 for a while now.

    As well, the hostages are still being held in Piville. What is Quart aiming at? I have a guess, but I don't want to think about it...

    Chapter 9: Controlled re-escalation
    "Politics without tensions or wars are boring..."

    -From the logs of Lord Quart-

    Nothing is happening like we planned it. F. was unable to attack @Exilenela in time because of a meeting where his security level did not suffice. The even bigger problem - 314 had escaped his cell.

    Neither I nor Destero know how he managed to escape. The door was simply open. However, we then had to execute our emergency plan...since we presumed 314 to still be inside the plant, we let the reactor core melt leading to a nuclear explosion. Hopefully 314 did not survive it. However, in case he did, we need to make it look like a sabotage. A sabotage executed by him. This will make him responsible for all casualties caused by the nuclear explosion. The radioactive cloud is travelling towards the fort, it will reach it within the next few days. Evacuation preparations have begun and because of this @Exilenela, being one of the highest authorities, had to stay. The timeframe to eliminate him...has been enlarged. We must not miss this chance.

    Signed,
    Lord Quart. Glorious leader of Piville.

    Quart: And what would this problem be?
    Destero: The fact that 314…knows about the fact that I am working together with you.
    Quart: This…is not good. If that is really true, then we will proceed with plan 23-C.
    Destero: Eliminating him?
    Quart: Correct. But please try to not draw any attention onto you, the police is still trying to acquire permission to search the plant. Leave no evidence behind.
    Destero: Yes, boss.
    [SC] Destero has disconnected.
    Quart: F, as I already said. Plan 23-C. Now you will fulfil your part.
    F.: Since I am able to access the weapon chamber and some other high security areas in the fort, it is possible.
    Quart: Then do it. We don’t have much time left; @Exilenela is planning to depart tomorrow. Eliminate him. Since 314 will be out of the way soon he is now the primary target. Xynth is only a minor role, 314 and @Exilenela are the leaders.

    314 awoke in a bright room, the walls and floor apparently made out of steel and concrete. Where was he? He stood up and walked over to the window, apparently it was bullet-proof and extra thick. He couldn’t see anything outside, a layer of sand had covered a large part of the small window. He tried to find out where he was. The construction material of the walls looked very new, but the ceiling was showing older materials. “The ceiling material is about…seven to ten years old”, he guessed. However, the wall material had a maximum age of one year. “Newly renovated…steel…concrete…” He opened a small fuse box located in one corner. He looked at the labelled switches, all of them secured with multiple locks. One of them read ‘Cooling – Block B’. He saw a few other labels, one of them informing him about security guidelines. “Security guidelines…’4. In case of a reactor meltdo…’…wait.” He looked at the text again. Yes. It read ‘reactor meltdown’. A small sign caught his attention. It was a radioactivity symbol. “A nuclear power plant!” he suddenly understood. He tried to remember all nuclear reactors within 200 miles of him which he had memorized as a hobby, his position guessed by the light incoming from the window and the sand that pointed either towards a beach or a desert. There were three buildings that could fit. No, four. Five, if he accepted some inaccuracy into his thoughts.

    Suddenly, the door opened and two heavily armed guards entered the room. They handcuffed him and brought him to a room looking like an office. “Ah, the legendary 314 has arrived. Welcome to the Destero nuclear power plant”, the person waiting for him said. “May I introduce myself? I am F. P. Destero, owner and manager of this wonderful plant.” 314 looked at him. Then he answered. “The Destero nuclear power plant…so you are the head of the NucleoCorp?”

    “Oh, not exactly. The NucleoCorp is a dummy company. The legal appearance of my illegal businesses. And one of those businesses…concerns you. Please let me explain so you can understand my position. However, I will not reveal my financer.”
    314 answered, trying to sound bored. “Quart.”
    Destero froze, staring at him. “Very well then. If you already know everything, there is no reason to talk further. Guards, please guide him to his cell. I need to call somebody very important. Immediately.”

    As the guards closed the door of his cell he realized that he might have said the wrong thing...
    Over two weeks ago, during the Pivillean New Year’s Eve celebration, @Imabankthing, @ModernPerils and @Danielman33 have been taken as hostages by Lord Quart, the current leader of Piville. Delegates of the nations led by them have by now gathered to multiple video conferences with Charles Xynth, @314, @Exilenela and the Piville council. A while ago the Sentinel reported about rumours concerning a secret base in the desert. By now its existence has been proven, as well as the fact that 314 is – or better was – there. Apparently he had left one week ago for secret reasons, but apparently he did not arrive at his destination yet. His truck was found in the desert showing various damages caused by bullets. Currently, nobody knows anything about his exact position, but some indicate that a nuclear power plant is located only a few miles away from the place where his car was found. The police is currently investigating, however they are currently unable to search inside the power plant because the owner – the NucleoCorp, has not given them permission to enter yet, officially according to “Security guidelines”.
    “Ladies and gentlemen”, 314 began his speech in the conference room as he ordered his notes. “Eight days ago the hostage situation in Piville began during the New Year’s Eve celebration. @Imabankthing, @ModernPerils and @Danielman33 are still emprisoned in Piville. So far we have sent a total of seven scouts into the town, disguised as Pivillean soldiers. Six of them were immediately found and executed, but the seventh one was able to open a secret tunnel into the town before he was discovered.” He looked over to three LCD screens placed on some tables. The delegates of the nations led by the hostages were connected to a video conference because with an ally of Quart in the fort, it could easily become very deadly for them. So far he had excluded 14 of the 22 possible traitors. Of course he had not invited the suspects to this conference. “This tunnel opens a new possibility, entering the town from the Parisian district. The Berlin, London and Roman district are currently guarded too well. The hostages are located in the Berlin district. Now, you may ask yourself who we should send now. The answer is simple – me. We can not risk any more casualties of our agents, thus I am a volunteer to enter the town. I planned the layout of Piville, so I know it better than anyone else.” Nobody dared to object, it was obvious that he would go nevertheless.

    After the conference, 314 went back to his main office. He had to thoroughly plan everything. The tunnel was small, so he couldn’t take any equipment with him. However, it was very likely that the secret entrances and underground corridors were still unknown to Quart. He could equip himself there. He tried to remember what he had left there. “Dynamite. A 6.28mm hand gun, my favourite custom weapon. Crafted from high quality materials and nearly indestructible. As well, enough ammunition in case of an emergency. This should suffice to reach the cells.” After he had prepared everything he would need, he used the spare time he had to think about the recent events and their results. Three hostages. Seven killed agents. The loss of Commander @Slayer_boy_2000 and the paralysation of @Exilenela. Although it had lasted for a long time, it had finally faded. He was already able to walk short distances again, 314 assumed that he would fully heal within the next few days. And the trust problem – who was the traitor? It was impossible to trust anybody anymore now, but he had prepared himself for this case. He would place forged evidence, leading possible observers into the wrong direction. He had publicly announced the location of a tunnel during the conference – but the real entrance was about two kilometres away from it, hidden in the sewers.

    He proceeded to the main gate of the fort – he would leave now, but he planned to return as soon as he freed the hostages. If he failed…then he wouldn’t go anywhere anymore. He passed the main gate and entered his truck parked in front of it in order to pass the desert. He would hopefully arrive at Piville within one day.

    314 sat at his desk in his office. The resistance was still weakened…@Exilenela’s paralysis lasted a bit longer than expected, although it would cure soon. The headquarter was still sealed off because they hadn’t found the mole yet. @FiFyFoFumOtter had not reported his investigation results yet. He turned on the TV to see the news about the Piville New Year’s Eve show Quart had initiated.


    “…the situation has escalated; multiple casualties and three major representatives of other nations are currently held as hostages. It is safe to assume that the representatives are @Imabankthing, @ModernPerils and @Danielman33. Apparently lord Quart, the pivillean leader, is currently trying to extort large territories of their respective nations in order to let them go. Apparently the hostage situation had been planned for a long time, disguised by the firework show which was a reason for him to invite multiple leaders of other important nations.”


    He stared at the screen. Hostages? Why on earth did Quart decide to take hostages? This would either lead to an all-out war between an international alliance and Piville, or he would be successful and greatly increase the territory he controls…either way, it would make the work of the resistance much harder. He had to see @Exilenela. Now.

    This is an extract from the EcoCityCraft Sentinel and was published on December 31st.


    Since lord Quart has become the new leader of Piville (The ECC sentinel reported) there have been various opinions about him and his policy. Because of this, the New Year’s Eve celebration has been a very contentious and highly discussed topic. Critics accuse Quart of entertaining international delegates from various nations in order to distract from the oppressed Pivilleans and the semi-legal methods he used to achieve the rank of the pivillean leader. Quart, however, is currently ignoring the accusations and continues to work on his international reputation.

    Meanwhile, news about the bombing of a secret base in the desert has arrived at the Sentinel headquarter. Some people speculate that @@Exilenela, @@314 and C. Xynth, all three currently hunted by the new pivillean government, are currently inside this base. While not much is known yet – the location of the base is still secret and there has been no confirmation yet – it appears as if there has been at least one casualty. It is still unknown who is responsible for the bombing, but on the other hand even the existence of this base is still not guaranteed. While the Sentinel doesn’t usually report about rumours, we will continue to investigate because of evidence sent to us only a few hours ago.

    The conference to determine their future steps against lord Quart had been set to Christmas morning. “Winning against Quart would be the best present for Christmas” 314 thought as he entered the room and put out a few documents from his suitcase. “Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to present you a few documents I was able to collect from various offices after escaping my safe room under Piville” he said and looked down on the documents when he noticed a faint ticking coming from somewhere inside the room. “Silence”, he ordered.


    Yes, there really was a faint ticking. He stood up from his chair in order to see the whole room. The ticking became slightly faster when he suddenly noticed an abandoned suitcase at the other end of the room. “This can’t be…” he said to himself. Then he shouted “Get out of here! Immediately!”





    - Bombing report -

    - Bomb analysis

    The bomb material was Semtex, a dangerous plastic explosive which was connected to a countdown timer set to a detonation time shortly after the beginning of the conference.


    - Scene analysis

    The bomb was planted in a suitcase left at the south-east corner of the conference room. The number of injuries was kept relatively small because of an immediate evacuation started by 314. Commander @Slayer_boy_2000, responsible for the security of the councillors, attempted to prevent the blast from hitting @Exilenela, suffering injuries explained below as a consequence.



    - Injuries

    @Exilenela, the current supervisor of Piville, has sustained major body damage from the blast, although chances of survival are currently very high. As a consequence of his injuries he might suffer from a temporary paralysis lasting for three to four days.



    @Slayer_boy_2000 has suffered potentially lethal head and body injuries in a successful attempt to shield @Exilenela from the blast.


    314 was the one starting the evacuation; however he was hit by a brick on the head while leading the others to the emergency exit. Medium injuries, minor concussion.


    6 officers and 2 councillors have been slightly injured due to falling rubble when the room collapsed; all have been treated by the paramedics by now.


    - Damage to the building

    The supporting pillar of the conference room was destroyed by the explosion which led to a collapse of the eastern part of the facility.


    - Consequences

    The bomb must have been planted by somebody from inside the facility since nobody is able to enter or exit it without notifying the guards, thus for now all paths leading outside of the facility have been blocked until the culprit has been found.



    314 put down the report. Before this day he had thought that his fort was absolutely secure. Its location was a secret and the ways to enter or leave it were heavily guarded. He went over to his blackboard and grabbed a piece of chalk. His head was still hurting and covered in band aids, but he needed to find the culprit. He quickly wrote 25 names on the board. 12 councillors including himself, 12 officers and @Slayer_boy_2000, the commander. Those 25 people were the only ones that had been able to enter the room and thus place the bomb. He erased his and the commander’s name from the list. He was innocent, and the commander would probably die because of the bomb. 23 remained. He erased one more name from the list, @Exilenela’s. He would have died if it weren’t for the commander. Quite a high risk if he were the one responsible. Concerning Xynth – he was sure that he was innocent. But as long as there wasn’t any proof of his innocence, he would remain on the list. 22 names on the list. 21 innocent people and one traitor. He walked around his room in circles. He didn’t know who the culprit was, but he knew one thing. He knew that it was his highest priority to find him. He picked up the phone and called another councillor, @FiFyFoFumOtter. He was responsible for the Pivillean arms and had proven to be a trusty person. Also, he was in charge of the fort’s weapon chamber.


    He had an idea…but he would need help.

    The Qu'altama desert. A vast, dead place far away from Piville. 314 had traveled here because there was something special int his desert, something he had built years ago.


    As he reached the top of the dune, he could already see it. A military zone, protected by automatic guns, land mines, barbed wire and heavily armed guards. He walked over to the road leading to the main portal. After identifying himself as 314 via fingerprint recognition, he was allowed to enter and was greeted by Commander @Slayer_boy_2000. "We have already been waiting for you a long time now. Xynth said you would arrive shortly after him, but that was two days ago" he said. "I had to collect some more information about Quart's plans, but now I finally arrived", 314 replied. "Is everybody in the conference room?" he asked. The commander nodded and followed him to the conference room.


    He was the last councilor still missing. Xynth, @Exilenela and various other people were already waiting. Now they could decide how to defeat Quart.

    314 heard the continuous sound of Quart’s soldiers trying to break through his security door. They had tried hacking his system and breaking his door with weapons so far…but that way they wouldn’t win. Suddenly he remembered that he did not check the blast resistance of his door. Through his surveillance system he could see a tank arriving at the door. “The M902 Hydrictis…” he said quietly. “I have no idea how they got it down here, but I don’t want to find out whether my security door can withstand a heavy tank.”


    He went to his central console. Since he had built it years ago it had been a place to control Piville from. Security doors, surveillance cameras, everything was connected to it. “Its destruction would cause severe malfunctioning in every electric device in Piville” he whispered.

    Then...he activated the self-destruction sequence.


    Self-destruction enabled. Exploding in T-30 seconds.


    It was a lot better if it was destroyed than if Quart reached it. He quickly grabbed his suitcase containing all important documents and entered the escape system. It was time to reach the desert base he had built long ago, the others were already waiting for him there. Although he would free Quart from his cell first...he grabbed his weapon. Quart was the new leader of Piville, but he knew what to do now.

    This is an extract from the EcoCityCraft Sentinel and was published on December 20th.


    [​IMG]

    Less than one hour ago Sergeant Quart - now known as Lord Quart - was announced the new leader of Piville. Since November 2014 he had been on the run, hiding from “ruthless hunters paid by the greedy Xynth who did everything to expand his influence” as he stated at the press conference. According to Quart himself Xynth, the former leader of Piville, is currently jailed in an underground cell in the Berlin district, awaiting his conviction. “The crimes he committed during the Pivillean war were never avenged and he had remained as the leader after the war, being supervised by @Exilenela. Now that I have become the new leader, I will drastically change the political system of Piville” he said, not telling which direction he will exactly aim at.


    Since the ECC Sentinel is an independent newspaper, we will neither condemn nor approve his new rank. @314 and Charles Xynth had previously accused him of multiple charges of murder, however he claims "now that I have achieved the title of the Pivillean leader, these political lies will fade. Instead, I will prove @314, who has barricaded himself in his control room, to be guilty of murdering the archaeologist in the ruins under the town, and possibly a lot more.”


    At this time nobody knows what will happen next or has happened exactly within the last few hours. Some speculate it might be related to the riots the Sentinel reported about in the last issue, but at this point nothing has been proven. Maybe this is the truth, maybe it is a rumor. Only the future knows what will happen next.



    Chapter 8: The new ruler
    "I have finally reached one of my main goals...now I can realize the next one. @Exilenela will not survive...



    314 had been in his control room under the PiIndustries headquarter for the whole day. Since the snow storm had finally ceased a few days ago, he decided to take a tour around the town.


    He arrived at the Cherry Blossom Avenue, the central road of the Berlin district. He had always loved the road inspired by the “Kirschblütenweg” in Berlin which he had seen on one of his countless travels across the world. His breath formed small clouds. The blizzard had faded, but the cold temperatures it had brought still remained. Looking at the snow-covered trees, he thought about the past few months. It had all begun in late July and early August when Xynth had plotted his intrigues ultimately leading to his takeover and the following war with @Exilenela. Back then Xynth had been extremely dangerous, but by now he had changed. Now they were working together against the true enemy behind the problem...Quart. Xynth had only been a puppet of Quart until he decided to follow his own way. From this point on Quart tried to kill both of them many times...as of today, without success. But although his original plan had not been successful, Quart was unlikely to ever give up. The last few weeks had shown this well...the message for @Exilenela. Why did he conceal it? Him, Xynth and 314 were allies which should trust each other. Had Quart really been able to plant doubt into his mind? 314 had no idea....but he would need to find out sooner or later. Rather sooner.

    The second problem concerned the riots in Piville - 314 had thoroughly studied the profiles of many people involved. It had shocked him - from 76 profiles he analysed he had found 68 previously convicted criminals, 27 of them were known to have direct or indirect contact to Quart. The Piville Intelligence and the police had arrested the heads of the riots by now. 298 casualties, the damages done to the town had already exceeded a limit of 1,250,000$. He sighed. So much murder and destruction...all caused by Quart’s minions. The citizens of Piville are afraid of the future…

    314 shuddered. He could feel a wind of change arriving in Piville. It had been a glorious nation for many years, owning a stable political position in international relations until the conflict caused by Xynth had culminated in the Pivillean war which had led to an isolation of Piville and strict supervision by @Exilenela afterwards. While it was currently regenerating the process was frequently interrupted by Quart. A wind of change...314 had no idea what the future might look like, but he had a feeling that he wouldn’t enjoy it. He turned around, heading back to his control room. He would prepare some supplies and ammunition just in case Quart would attack.


    It would soon turn out that it was a good idea of him...

    Problems over problems...a blizzard that is still damaging the town and riots on the streets which damage Piville even more. I suspect at least some of the violent street fighters to be paid by Quart...he is trying to destabilize the government. And he might have already succeeded with a part of it...


    I found the message by accident while checking all message logs in Piville from the last few weeks. Quart sent a message to @Exilenela, trying to convince him of Xynth’s “Intrigues” about the energy crystal. I have told @Exilenela about the crystal myself and about the fact that we need to secure it. The big problem - he never mentioned the message from Quart. But why? What is he up to - does he seriously believe what Quart wrote? If that is the case, he might be interested in getting rid of Xynth, too. However, I don’t think he would directly intervene - I suppose he would just wait until Quart’s attacks prove to be successful.


    A long time ago I vowed that I would do anything possible to save Piville. I was not able to do it during the war, but after it Xynth had changed for the better and by now I think that he is trying to give his best, too. However, Quart will ruin Piville. I guess the proud town wouldn’t even continue to exist for half a year if he took over.


    The only good thing about the current situation: The Piville weather service expects the storm to stop within the next few days. 162 casualties - how many will we have reached by the end of it…?

    Piville: The return of 314 and the Deadly Snow Storms

    [​IMG]

    Only a few days ago 314, the former leader of Piville before the Pivillean war, came back, since he was presumed dead at the beginning of October. He has now officially returned. Many rumours have already spread, some even accuse him of the murder of an archaeologist inside the ruins under the town. While 314 himself accuses Sergeant Quart, formerly the leader of the Piville Intelligence, the two main opinions of 314 being a hero and him being a criminal are clashing in the streets of Piville. Street battles are beginning to spread in the whole town, Charles Xynth, the current leader of Piville, has requested @Exilenela to intervene with the Pivillean armies that are currently controlled by him. While it is still unknown whether he will do this, problems of a more natural kind have arisen.

    The snowstorm is still wreaking havoc in Piville, the weather service has rated the storm as an E-4, the second highest class of blizzards available on the Pivillean scale. The current storm was now proven to be the most severe one since the Pivillean winter in 1752. Currently, the average outside temperature measures -31°F and scientists predict the total amount of snow to reach an overall depth of up to seven feet. Volunteers are working day and night to remove snow from the buildings in order to prevent them from collapsing. Small parts of the roads have already given in to the weight of the snow, breaking into the underground passages of the Berlin district. The underground mall has been closed because of the damages, citizens have been requested to stay inside their houses. However, as already stated above, some people are ignoring this warning and continue to battle on the streets because of 314. The amount of casualties has reached 42 and many more deaths are to be expected within the next few days and weeks.

    Within the last few days of continuous snow fall, the mass of snow in Piville has increased dramatically. The average temperature is dropping fast. If Quart would cut off our supply routes for warming the houses of Piville, he would be able to make the town break under the snow completely. Since I have no idea of his current plans, I have - with permission of @Exilenela - delegated armed forces to guard the trucks bringing wood, coal, fuel and food into the town.

    Meanwhile however, I am amazed of the size Quart's underground network has reached. Even weeks after opening it we still find new rooms every day, some made by him but many are still from the original Piian ruins. Today's findings however have shocked me.

    Apparently Quart did not only store Pivillean weapons down there but also...created own ideas. We have found an enourmous tank in the ruins, much bigger than the pre-war Pivillean tanks. In the same ruins we have found its blueprints, the name reads "M902 Hydrictis", the tank we have found appears to be a prototype. For now we have brought it to the heavily guarded military area. I have requested @FiFyFoFumOtter, the head developer of arms, to disassemble the tank in order to find any signs of a possible third party involved. Quart was never somebody to design weapons, he loved the knowledge on how to use them a lot more.


    I am heavily worried about a possible third party - Quart is already extremely dangerous himself.

    314 looked down to the roads between the skyscrapers of the Berlin district. The roads and pavements had begun to fill with snow, the snow clearance was already in progress despite the bad weather. He tried to remember any stronger snow storm in Piville than this one, but none came to his mind. He looked up to the sky; the clouds were still becoming darker, even after already reaching a very dark grey. Within the last few hours much had changed in Piville. Much snow had fallen; in fact so much that it would take multiple days with clear sky to return Piville to a normal state of activity. And even more snow kept falling in even shorter intervals...


    He focused on the reason why he had come to the roof of skyscraper 14 - the security camera. His surveillance network was able to monitor about 99.76% of Piville, but when a camera broke he still had to repair it by hand. For the fifth time within the last ten minutes he thought of the newest changes in Piville. The snow was a big change, but by far not the biggest.


    The biggest change in the last hours had been that he had given up his presumed-dead-status, he had talked to Xynth. Now he was officially back in duty. He looked down from the roof once more - he would find Quart. He was a psychopath going haywire, causing chaos not only in Piville. He checked the control panel of the newly installed camera, nodded and left the roof via the staircase.

    Charles Xynth's steps hollwed through the ruins. How could he just assume that Quart had escaped from Piville? He should have thought about the possibility of him still hiding, just as 314 had during the Pivillean war.


    He heard Quart behind him in the complete darkness while he ran, he was coming closer. And then...he fired at him.

    Luckily the darkness was not only a problem for Xynth, but for Quart as well. He missed him three times and then he continued to catch up with him.


    Suddenly, somebody grabbed Xynth and dragged him into a small corridor. Quart arrived and continued to run in the direction he suspected Xynth in. "Silence!", the mysterious person whispered and led him into the more iluminated parts of the ruins. He was wearing a mask hiding his face, he had no idea who it might be. "It is good that I returned to Piville...time to get you out of here, Xynth." He could have sworn that his voice sounded familiar... "I have prepared a small explosive charge at the wall over there, a hole inside it will directly lead to the surface." he said and pressed a button on his remote.

    The explosion could be heard in the whole ruins and in a certain radius in Piville, too. He told Xynth to get out of the ruins and inform the Piville Intelligence that Quart was still in the town. Xynth ran away and the mysterious person put down his mask.


    "Now I am certain that it was good to return to Piville..." 314 said. Suddenly, he heard a clicking sound behind him. "...or wasn't it...?" he said as he turned around. Quart was aiming his revolver at him. "Oh, it was a brilliant idea to return. Xynth might have escaped, but I think you might be of even greater worth..."


    314 noticed that Quart was standing on an antique symbol engraved in the ground. He had thoroughly studied the Piian symbol language, the pattern was a lever, but it had to be used with its counterpart. Without moving his head he scanned the floor around him. Yes, there it was. Only inches away from his foot. He quickly moved his foot on it, and almost instantly a heavy stone door closed between him and Quart. He could hear him curse on the other side and firing bullet after bullet into the heavy door. "I know him well enough to be aware of the fact that he always has lots of spare ammo with him.", 314 thought as he ran away. When he reached the hole in the wall the explosion had created, he heard the first bullet break through the door. "Time to hurry up", he thought and ran away into one of the many streets in the Berlin district.


    314 entered his hideout in Piville, a secret control room under the PiIndustries headquarter. "Mission accomplished. Xynth has survived and has already ordered dozens of scouts and soldiers into the ruins. However, I am pretty certain that they won't find him. He is like a shadow...impossible to catch.", he said to himself as he activated the LCD screens on the wall, each one monitoring another part of Piville. He thought about whether he should reveal to Xynth that he was still alive. After all the main reason had been to prevent Quart from finding out, but this had already happened now...he picked up his phone and dialed the phone number of Xynth, bypassing the normal authorisation system.

    Attention, residents of Piville!


    We need to inform you of multiple things. First, the storm was now classified as a lot more intense, a C-3 class would not suffice. The scientists have rated it D-1 on the Pivillean scale. One entrance to the underground market has been blocked by the snow and we are trying to keep the entrances of the buildings usable.


    Another extremely important information: Charles Xynth, the leader of Piville, has been missing for multiple hours now. Nobody knows where he went to, but we have created a special team which investigates his case. Stay calm, we will find him again soon.


    Thank you for your attention.

    - The Pivillean government

    Dusk was nearing, the first few snowflakes began to fall down from the sky. Charles Xynth looked up, staring at the darkening clouds and then entered the passage leading to the ruins under Piville. His quest for the truth...he had to accelerate it. Not only his scouts had to search down there, he had to do it as well.


    From the roof of a near building, Sergeant Quart looked down on him. Although he officially no longer was a Sergeant - or even a free person - he liked this title and kept calling himself Sergeant. Xynth thought that he had already fled from Piville. Oh, how horribly wrong he was. Originally he had planned to proceed with his alternate plan involving @Exilenela, but this snow storm was such a great opportunity. As he saw Xynth entering the secret passage, he began to climb down the building. Back in his days as a member of the Pivillean government, he had used his influence to equip some buildings with secret passages only he knew of. Those who had built them...weren't able to tell anybody about it anymore.


    He quickly reached the entrance, using the increasing darkness to his advantage in order to hide from the guards. The snow storm would leave everybody busy controlling its effects, so it would offer a wonderful cover for a small murder. A very important one however. He tightened his grip around the weapon he had owned since he joined the Pivillean army back in the good old days. "It is time to put another victim on my list" he thought and entered the passage, his steps echoing into the dark corridor.

    Attention, residents of Piville!


    Meteorolists predict a heavy snow storm arriving at Piville within the next few hours.

    While this storm is caused by cold arctic wind, it could predict an early winter coming in november already. All residents are requested to stay at home within the next few hours, public transit has been halted in expectation of the storm. Scientists have currently classified the snow storm as a C-2 on the Pivillean weather scale.


    Thank you for your attention.

    From: ████████

    To: @Exilenela, winner of the Pivillean war and in charge of Piville weaponry.


    You might know me, or you might not. I wish to remain anonymous, however I have something to say you might show great interest in.


    I know for certain that you have been seeking for a new unconventional way of generating energy to power your armed vehicles. And I also know that you were interested in the power source of a reconnaissance drone that was show down near your base a while ago. This material is an excellent source of energy, and I know that you would be interested in acquiring more of it. It is impossible to replicate, but I know a storage with much of it. Very much. A few tons, I would say.


    The material produces energy because its crystalline structure is slowly annihilating itself and thus emitting all of its mass as energy. Now, you may ask yourself where this storage can be found.


    Piville.

    Yes, Xynth knows about it. But maybe...he decided to hide it from you in order to power his own army? Well, well...who knows. Let me tell you, the exact location of the energy crystal lies under the town, within the ruins he uncovered a few days ago. Invade them and confiscate the crystal, and you will have more energy available than you ever dreamed to own.


    The reason why I am telling you? Oh, I like to take the winner's side...


    ██████████, November 13th 2014

    -Extract from the diary of Charles Xynth, leader of Piville-


    The more time passes and the more the scouts are discovering in the ruins the more I begin to think that I must have been completely blind...Quart was able to smuggle artillery into the underground. I have not the slightest guess how he did that, but he had stored the artillery which he told me about as "Destroyed during the Pivillean war"...it was all a lie. Only a small gear in his scheme. We have now brought the artillery back up to the surface and I have set it under the command of @Exilenela just as I did with the tanks before.


    I used to seek fort he truth behind Quart's actions...but by now I wish that I had never searched for it. It is hurtful to see that the person I trusted with absolutely anything betrayed me.


    And...it could be that it was him who was responsible for the Piville bombing and for the assassination of @Exilenela's Piville supervisor. Although this is only a guess, I feel that it might have been another fraction of his plan...Once again I am asking myself the question where Quart might be right now.


    But wherever he might be, I will find him. His plan might have failed for now, but I know him - and I know that he always prepares an emergency plan.


    Piville, November 12th 2014

    -Extract from the diary of Charles Xynth, leader of Piville-


    Nine days have passed since somebody called me. He did not say his name, neither did I recignise his voice. But whoever he is...he seemed to be well informed. Very well informed.


    I would have never believed that somebody would ever re-use the bunker from the Pivillean war...but apparently Quart did it. I never thought he would be so focused on his own interests, all of his tries to help me were just facade. The truth is...that he was able to reactivate the pivillean missiles without my knowledge. They will need to be destroyed thoroughly. And this time I will personally supervise their recycling...


    Quart has fled from his underground base. At least I assume this, the scouts are finding new secret doors inside the ruins every day...

    The anonymous person had told me about the ruins, but they were surprising and are extremely interesting nevertheless. Thousands of years and only slight signs of decay...and this mysterious glowing rock. Only a few hours before I was called @Exilenela informed me about a mysterious reconnaissance drone searching for his headquarter. The drone was shot down once more, but it contained a mysterious sample of a glowing material which was used as an excellent power source. The chemical compositions match, the glowing material originated from these ruins.


    I have not yet told @Exilenela about my findings...he seems like he would do everything to achieve a big amount of this seemingly limitless supply of energy.


    But as if it weren't enough...we found the archaeologist's remains I was informed about. His database entry states that he used to be a friend of 314...how does he fit into this conglomerate of mysteries and open questions?


    There are many questions that need an answer...and I will find it. In memoriam of 314.


    Piville, November 7th 2014

    314 looked at his watch. "It is about time, he will surely call any moment now. I need to know whether he gained enough knowledge about the ruins in order to activate the crystal. Before my escape from Piville I had invested countless hours into research in order to find out how to activate the crystal after I found the ruins three months ago. It is very important...the crystal is an important key in unlocking the secret of Mystica."


    After exploring the ruins for multiple hours, @Ninjaboy3113 stopped walking around and took out his mobile phone. "I may have found out how to activate the crystal in the main room. However, I needto talk to 314 first to confirm my theory." He dialed the phone number of 314 and waited for the phone to establish a connection to him.


    Sergeant Quart had followed @Ninjaboy3113 through the ruins for a long time now. Hidden in the shadows, he had never seen him. Quart had seen him draw a detailed map of the ruins and fill countless pages with compley notes. Now @Ninjaboy3113 has stopped exploring and seemed to phone 314. He had guessed right; he knew 314. But the most important part: 314 seemed to be still alive. Apparently he had perfectly faked his own death. Quart himself had been a witness of it, he would have believed it to be authentic if he didn't knew the truth now.


    @Ninjaboy3113 informed 314 about his theory of the crystal activation and about the discoveries he had made in the last few hours. "As well, I have analysed the material the crystal and the lights seem to be made of. Apparently it is a composite of over 25 elements, including a few rare ones like traces of Uranium, Piium and..."


    Quart had heard enough. The ruins seemed to be extremely important to 314 and thus he would not let @Ninjaboy3113 give him any more information. He took out a pistol and aimed accurately. The sound of the gun echoed through the whole ruin complex and @Ninjaboy3113 fell to the ground. A ghostly silence fell over the scene. Quart left the shadows and walked over to him. His mobile phone had fallen out of his hand and dropped on the floor. Quart picked it up, the speaker seemed to be broken. But apparently, the microphone was still working. "314, it looks like you are still alive...don't worry, I will change this soon." he said and fired another bullet right into the device to end the transmission.


    314 let his hand with the phone in it sink down onto the table. He had already known that Sergeant Quart would do anything to achieve his goals...but still...he sat at his table for multiple minutes, thinking about what Quart had done. Finally, he stood up. "Sergeant Quart has been free for a long time. Far too long in my opinion. He definitely needs to be disabled. However, I can't go to Piville myself in order to inform Xynth, Quart would surely find me and eliminate me as he threatened to do so." He picked up the phone once more. "I need to inform Xynth, however as an anonymous source. I will tell him everything I know. Now the fate of Piville, myself and all of the people that know I am alive rests on Charles Xynth. He seems to have changed since the end of the Pivillean war and I think that he will do his best to save Piville. Quart, you will not succeed..."

    -Extract from the logs of Sergeant Quart-


    Interesting. Very interesting, indeed. The reconnaissance drone may have crashed without finding @Exilenela because it ran out of power, but I have found something else...

    When expanding the bunker, I have stumbled upon ancient ruins. They seem to be at least five millenniums old, possibly...even more.

    The ruins seem to be illuminated by some kind of glowing stone, I have no idea what material it could be. The centre of the complex seems to be a dome with a floating crystal which seems to be made out of the same glowing material.

    [​IMG]

    I have yet to find out what these ruins actually are, but this mysterious stone seems to be a source of energy. I might be able to use it to power the reconaissance drone. And as well, I think I have seen a drawing of this crystal or one of the same kind before. Somewhere deep inside the archives containing 314's private notes...I will need to check it for more information.


    However, this will have to wait. Somebody else seems to know about those ruins. According to the database of the Piville Intelligence his name is @Ninjaboy3113, an archaeologist. That itself wouldn't be a problem...however, it seems like he might be in contact with 314. And if he is here, chances are good that 314 is after those ruins but can't come here himself. It might be necessary to eliminate him...

    -Extract from the logs of Sergeant Quart-


    Everything is working as planned. I was finally able to launch a reconnaissance drone. This time...I will find @Exilenela's base. His main base, of course. Xynth has failed to locate it before the war ended...now it is my turn. I need to find it, almost everything is prepared...soon Piville will receive the global rank it deserves...and Xynth will probably not survive it. After all he was only a marionette of my intrigues...until he began to decide things on his own, like the surrender. I will get rid of him after I discover @Exilenela's base...

    -Extract from the diary of Charles Xynth, leader of Piville-



    We have a problem. A big problem. Today one of @Exilenela's Piville supervisors was shot at during the daily meeting of the Piville politicians. The bullet came in through the window, the assassin must have been waiting for him. He survived, but he is still not out of danger. I have already talked to @Exilenela about this incident. He was not amused, we definitely need to find the person responsible for this attack.


    A while ago the Piville bombing led to 314 being removed from the top of the hierarchy. This incident might be caused by the same person. After all back then he was able to commit his crime without even leaving a slight hint of his identity. What is his goal - does he want to get rid of me as well?


    I still have no clue who the mysterious culprit might be...however, the building number and floor of the meeting today were top secret, not many people knew about it until the attack. Whoever did it must be either well informed by having contact with a high-ranked member of the Piville government or even be a part of it. Whatever the case is, apparently there is a traitor inside the government. I have no idea who I can trust now. I think the only person I still trust is Sergeant Quart, he has proven to be an outstanding help. I am sure that together we will find the culprit.


    Piville has lost the war about two weeks ago...and now I regret that I have tried to jail 314. I should have known that he was right...Piville never had the same possibilities as @Exilenela had. Although we have no direct proof of his death, there is no sign that he may have survived either. My attempts to make Piville a glorious nation were in vain, I didn't realize that I was in fact leading it into a war we could never win...


    However, I have changed. I have accepted that @Exilenela will supervise Piville because I think it is the best thing to do now. And with his help, we might uncover the truth about the bombing and the assassination as well.


    Piville, October 18th 2014


    Chapter 6: Problems arising
    The bombing and an assassination...ar those events possibly connected?


    It was already very late at Piville. Many people were already asleep, those still awake were either planning something evil or had much work to do.


    Sergeant Quart fulfilled both requirements.

    After a long day in the headquarter of the Piville intelligence, which was now supervised by @Exilenela, he put away the documents he had been working on and locked his office.


    This very night, he had something more important to do.

    He walked along the Cherry Blossom avenue in the Berlin district, heading for the Brandenburg gate. This was his normal route home, but this time he turned left at the gate and stopped in front of the closed military area which was now controlled by @Exilenela as well.


    "@Exilenela practically took over all important parts of the Piville governmental system...the military, the Piville intelligence, the government itself...I still can't believe that Xynth decided to surrender to him.", he mumbled which he crossed the red-white barrier tape sealing the entrance. While the new supervisors checked every nook and cranny of Piville for possible weapon systems to confiscate, only very few people were allowed to enter the declared military zones. But since Sergeant Quart had been here many times, he exactly knew how to evade the alarm systems.

    He headed for the Vehicle Assembly Building where a incomplete tank was still present, nobody had removed it yet.


    "It is time to restore the former glory of Piville, and it is up to me. The longer I wait, the more will @Exilenela's grip around Piville tighten. Xynth definitely won't help me, he would be too scared of the consequences...before he surrendered, he enjoyed the war like I did. But he seems to have gradually changed...now he is trying to keep the peace between Piville and any other nation. I guess 314 would like his current behaviour if he weren't dead."


    He entered the building and took a close look around the interior.


    "Now, where is this lever again?"


    Finally he found it, switched it and a hole in the ground opened. He stepped into the hole an followed a narrow path down into the underground.


    "It was a wonderful idea of Charles to trust me in filling the missile silo and the bunker with sand to make them unusable. All I had to do was to lie to him and fill the upper layer of the silo with sand."


    He entered the control room, the heart of the underground bunker complex. He had already spent many nights repairing multiple rooms of the whole structure which had already led to acceptable results; about 60% of the bunker were repaired at this time.


    "This bunker...this very room....

    The great defeat of Piville...us loosing the Pivillean war...it all happened in this very room. And in this very room I will also start the operation that will bring Piville to the very top again. All I need is a little more time to realize my idea..."


    He entered the missile silo from the control room and patted the nuclear rocket.


    "Soon you will be finally used... @Exilenela will wish to have never messed with Piville..."

    Extract from the diary of 314

    512 bit encryption - Status: secure

    Piville...since Xynth took over my place as the leader of Piville, I knew something like this had to come. He and his superiority complex were a dangerous combination, I should have never trusted him with the rank of the secretary of state. It should have been clear that he was aiming for the very top...finally, thanks to the help of @Exilenela, the Pivillean war has ended. This...was the good part. The bad part...is the current state of Piville.

    The day Piville surrendered...I was there...

    Piville has become a glorious nation while I was the great leader of it. Until Xynth decided that it was time to exchange the leader. I am still impressed about how he did it...apparently he even faked a press conference with an actor replacing me. The archive is invaluable for me; every document he forged has been stored there. It is incredible. For about one month before the change in leadership I have not received any official information, all I got were his fabricated information. I still have to understand everything he did...for example the ultimatum towards Kimigaya. It might be that he only did this to create tensions within the population of Piville which lead to the riots and untimately his takeover...well.

    Whatever his past plans were, they have failed with the end of the Pivillean war. Now all that is left of Piville...are ruins. Ruins showing the remains of the former glory of Piville.

    However, since @Exilenela has allowed Piville to continue existence, it might once again become the great nation it used to be.


    Meanwhile...I will need to focus on my own plans. Since Xynth is still the official leader of Piville - although supervised by @Exilenela - I even had to fake my own death. Although...only a few second later, and it wouldn't have been a fake at all.

    Since I am now presumed dead, I should no longer require to flee from Xynth's mercenaries. Now it is time to start Project Mystica. I have tried to work on it since I fled from Piville...and now I should be able to continuously work on it. Although Charles Xynth used to be the biggest threat, he is now kept under control by @Exilenela. The newer threat might be Sergeant Quart...I have never liked him, but he was very good at his job. However, it seems like he will never accept the fact that Piville has lost the war...


    I will have to see what the future holds for all of us...

    As well, I will now fulfil section 5 by revealing all of our secret projects to you.


    Project codename: GM-Farming

    Description: This project was created to earn money during the war; our scientists developed chemical weapons to defoliate trees and to poison crops. All farmers needed to buy our genetically modified seeds which are resistant against our weapon.


    Project name: Piium-Missiles

    Description: This project included research for the element Piium in order to create Piium missiles and explosive ammo. However, your research about Piium seems to have progressed faster than ours.


    Project name: SecureComm

    Description: The SecureComm is a device we used to communicate without the possibility of a third party listening. Dr. Kin was the leading developer.


    Project name: Piville arms

    Description: This project included most of the Piville armament, such as our Piville tanks or our fighter jet. This project might be interesting for you since you are now in charge of the Piville tanks and the only jet which survived the war.


    Those are all secret projects; enjoy the information they may give to your scientists.

    The Treaty of C. Xynth and @Exilenela

    - Unconditional Surrender of Piville -


    On this day, October 3rd 2014, the leading participants of the Pivillean war, Charles Xynth and @Exilenela, have come together to sign the official treaty between the two parties.


    By signing this treaty, Charles Xynth, current leader of Piville, accepts the following terms laid out by the winning party of the Pivillean war, @Exilenela:


    1. Piville must accept and continue the truce currently active between both parties.


    2. Piville officially agrees to the fact that the Pivillean war was completely the fault of Piville and @Exilenela only defended himself.


    3.1. Piville will agree to immediately stop any armament.


    3.2. The Piville missile silo needs to be filled with sand to make it unusable.


    3.3. The Piville tanks and the fighter jet will be under the command of @Exilenela and @clou44 from now on.


    4. Piville agrees to be supervised by @clou44 and @Exilenela using the arms set under new command according to 3.3.


    5. All secret governmental plans concerning weaponry and scientific discoveries need to be revealed to @Exilenela.


    6. Not following any of those sections will warrant intervention by @Exilenela and @clou44.


    This treaty will need to be accepted by the defeated Charles Xynth and the winners of the Pivillean war, @Exilenela and @clou44.


    Chapter 5: The treaty of Piville
    A better Piville may arise, supervised by @clou44 and @Exilenela.


    In a security bunker located below Piville, Sergeant Quart and Charles Xynth are waiting for an answer from Dr. Kin about his success - or failure - to stop the missile.


    Xynth: There is not much time left. In a few hours Piville will be erased from the map if he is not successful.

    Quart: This is true. But even if the missile doesn't hit us because he is successful, @Exilenela's bombs may have the same effects...


    Dr. Kin enters the room, all eyes turn towards him.


    Xynth: Doctor! Have you been successful?

    Dr. Kin: Well...I was finally able to exploit a backdoor in the system, the missile has crashed into the ocean.

    Xynth: Fantastic! Piville is saved!

    Dr. Kin: ...no.

    Xynth: What do you mean?

    Dr. Kin: I mean this - while the current missile was flying towards us in the last few days, @Exilenela has been able to produce many smaller missiles, as well as tanks. And he has @clou44 as a powerful ally on his side while our allies seem to be too afraid of @clou44 and @Exilenela to intervene.

    Xynth: But still...we will fight until the last bullet!

    Dr. Kin: Do whatever you like, but without me. I will officially surrender.

    Xynth: No. This can't be - you are the head of our research department!

    Dr. Kin: But I am not planning to become a victim of this war. Accept the truth, Mr. Xynth - Piville will not be successful in this war.


    A pondering silence is filling the room; nobody dares to say a word.


    Xynth: ...........within one month of intrigues and armament, I have made Piville a military empire and became the leader of it. I wanted Piville to become a nation nobody would mess with. Now it is a town of ruins I am ruling. I had great plans for Piville, greater than the ones 314 ever imagined. I forged documents and even a press conference and completely isolated him from any news while he still was the leader until I got rid of him. I was at the very top...and then...a small dispute with @Exilenela changed everything. It is incredible how in less than a week Piville was threatened, bombed and has now become unable to strike back. Dr. Kin, will the bunker survive any more attacks?

    Dr. Kin: If I calculated the strength of the missiles and bombs correctly, this bunker will be destroyed within 3 days.

    Quart: Doctor. We need to fight against @Exilenela. Piville may not survive his attacks, but he shouldn't, either!

    Dr. Kin: You have no idea what you are talking about. Everything we have left are a few tanks. We have lost our artillery, our airplanes and even our three experimental submarines.

    Quart: Then use the tanks against him! Is this really so difficult?

    Dr. Kin: Yes, it is. We have no idea where his secret base is located. During this war we have destroyed 6 of his remote bases already, but his main base is still untouched.

    Quart: But still...

    Xynth: Silence, Sergeant.

    Quart: But...

    Xynth: In case you missed it - I have asked for silence!

    Quart: ...

    Xynth: Piville...bombs are raining from the sky. Some citizens are already dead, others have fled to the underground. Although we have no proof, 314 is presumed dead. So there is no chance of him saving Piville, either.


    The detonation of a bigger bomb on the surface is echoing down to the bunker and interrupts the silence..


    Xynth: All our options have ceased, except one. Sergeant, you may not agree with me at this point...doctor, I will follow your example. The worst-case-scenario, the code Omega, has become true. I will hereby surrender to @Exilenela . Doctor, please hand me the SecureComm. I will talk to him.


    Quart: ...I still disagree with this.


    The SecureComm device is establishing a connection with @Exilenela while everybody is looking at the screen.


    Xynth: This is Charles Xynth speaking, currently leader of formerly glorious Piville. @Exilenela, I hereby officially declare that Piville has lost the war and that we are unconditionally surrendering. We are willing to sign a treaty, please...tell me your requirements.

    Master Xynth,

    The missile is still coming closer, Dr. Kin is doing his best. While this is still our main problem, a problem almost as big as this has emerged. @Exilenela has threatened to get allies soon. He found one - @clou44. Since the Piville army is almost unable to attack at this very moment, we will need to hope that she will not attack as actively as @Exilenela does.


    Although this might not be a very fortunate situation for Piville, I heavily dissuade you to start the worst-case-scenario, code Omega. Code Omega would ruin everything we have achieved so far.

    Dr. Kin is still trying to disable the missile in any way he can imagine, but for now it doesn't look well. Our allies are not responding and it looks like @Exilenela might have allies joining his side very soon. Already now the war is very unbalanced because of his missile, allies on his side would destroy the last bits of balance we have left. With every hour passing by more and more options become unavailable for us. The worst-case-scenario would be a code Omega.

    Master Xynth,

    @Exilenela was successful in bombing Piville. Ten fighter planes attacked. We were able to take down 6 of them at the cost of 3 of our own planes, but the bombs hit nevertheless. He has now officially attacked Piville, we will need to request help from everybody who is not directly an enemy but neither a friend, for example @MCHelix3000. Although he is not a direct ally, we need to convince him that @Exilenela may as well be a threat to the Helix nation. Apparently the base we bombed was only another remote base, we were able to pick up fragments of a signal before the jamming units were activated. However, it seems like his Piium reactors have been destroyed in our bombing.


    The missile is coming closer; we have shot all of our own ICBMs at it in attempt to bring it down. However, it seems like we only hit one of the warheads located inside it. I wish we had hit the only real one, but we only damaged a fake. 8 warheads remain, the armed one is one of them.

    Security code: Beyond all urgency - RED ALERT.

    Master Xynth,

    we finally found out what @Exilenela referred to as "Operation Wolf Storm" - the launch of a gigantic missile containing all of the Piium and uranium he was able to produce so far. The launch took place at 12:52am Central European Standard Time. Dr. Kin has calculated the missile's trajectory and found out that the most part of it is in outer space. The missile will fly around the earth 6 times before it will hit its target - Piville - on Friday, Ocober 3rd. I gave Dr. Kin and all other computer scientists of PiIndustries the order to hack into the missile, but for now it seems like @Exilenela's scientists were prepared for this and added many software protections. Brace for impact, we need to avoid the destruction of Piville at all cost! I hereby demand to increase the budget for our defense systems by 400% so we can try to build enough deflection strength to somehow stop the missile.


    There is only one good thing about the missile launch; the missile trajectory revealed its origin. I have ordered 3 bombers to attack. Pictures sent by a reconnaissance drone show that due to the incredible heat created when launching the closing mechanism of the ICBM launcher's cover has broken, the cover's gate is not closing anymore. Since we found out that the base is directly connected to the launcher, we have already thrown in some bombs and napalm to show @Exilenela that we can strike back as well and so far it loks like he lost four of his best scientists in the inferno. More bombers will arrive soon, however defending Piville is the top priority.

    we seem to have failed. After decoding a radio transmission we have invaded what we thought of as @Exilenela's base, however it was completely faked. Only a radio station and some uranium leftovers were there. This means we now need to go back to the first steps and scan everything again to find the new base.


    Alternatively, we could forge a video broadcast about @Exilenela threatening many nations at once. This would start a global hunt for him initiated by many nations, however this would need a perfect forgery.


    One of our top priorities is to find out what @Exilenela refers to as "Operation Wolf Storm".

    Master Xynth,

    the situation is urgent. We picked up another fragment of a conversation, the base has been moved from Eratica to another position. According to the general sector the signal came from, we assume that the base is still located within 2000 blocks of Eratica. We are currently trying to find any remains of technology in Eratica, but chances are slim. Instead we need to focus on our defense systems, apparently @Exilenela has prepared many ICBMs to launch at Piville. According to out current investigations however, only one is ready for use at the moment.

    we were able to get first-hand images from the town of Eratica where we suspect @Exilenela.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    While there are some stone buildings like the one above, there are also many wooden buildings. I suggest the use of napalm to erase them and conventional bombs for the stone ones. However, the base where the Piium is fabricated is surely located underground and we will not be able to reach it with out bombs. We would need the tunnel drilling machine we built a while ago but this would require infantry, preferrably parachute troopers, to invade the town and secure the location. Those are the facts, now I am awaiting your orders.


    Aside from this, we need to keep up the current reputation of Piville.

    To: C. Xynth, leader of Piville


    Master Xynth,

    tonight we lost contact to one of our reconnaissance drones searching for the base of @Exilenela; it was shot down. Normally this would be a problem, but before its destruction the drone was able to pick up a slight amount of radiation in its direct environment. After a thorough analysis the results show that the radiation pattern matches an archived file located in the PiIndustries archive. Apparently the material @Exilenela refers to as "X" is the element Piium our tech department once experimented with. The best scientists of PiIndustries, including Dr. Kin, are working on a possibility to disable the explosive reaction of uranium and Piium. While our experiments with Piium were soon archived because we did not have a possibility to create enough of it, @Exilenela seems to own reactors specially designed for Piium breeding.


    While we still don't know all parts of this puzzle, we can say for sure that @Exilenela must be hiding under the town of Eratica. However, the town seems to be well-guarded since @Exilenela is quite rich. We need to be cautious, although we must not wait until his scientists finish their research on Piium bombs.

    Master Xynth,

    we were able to pick up a transmission from our enemy. The scientists around @Exilenela seem to be developing a very strong bomb. They said that it may take a few months, but it would be extremely risky not to intervene. I have already initialised a global search for the source of the signal. If @Exilenela is really successful with further testing, we might be steering to a war bigger than any before. I hereby request your agreement to conduct further armament, including chinook helicopters and parachute troopers.


    Concerning 314, we assume he hasn't fled from Piville yet. Security has tightened at the town border, nobody can get in or out unseen. But still, for now we need to focus on @Exilenela. A war between him and Piville may have global consequences.

    Dr. Kin: Further tests of the defoliation substance have been successful; we will soon start ruining the farmer's harvests so they need to buy our genetically modified seeds.

    C. Xynth: Wonderful. Any special incidents to report, doctor?

    C. Xynth: Sergeant Quart, your report please.

    Sgt. Quart: We have not been able to find 314 again since we last located him. He seems to have completely vanished.

    C. Xynth: This is very bad news. Alright. What we have to do is to lure him to Piville so we can get him. Do you have any plans ready for something like this?

    Sgt. Quart: Might be. Maybe he is interested in saving whatever he is storing in his vault which we are trying to break open for days now. Whatever is inside must be valuable to him.

    C. Xynth: Well, well. I rely on you that you are successful. Do whatever you need to do, as long as you bring me 314. Alive.

    Master Xynth,

    our reseach has been completed. We were able to create a chemical substance capable of defoliating any kind of tree. As well, it is able to ruin crops as you wanted. Step 2 has been completed as well, we have produced genetically modified seeds capable of resisting the substance. We have tested the substance right outside of the Piville borders.

    [​IMG]

    Testing successful, I would say.


    And as well, as you might see, we were able to enhance our camera technology and are now able to produce pictures with a much higher quality.


    Step 3 will be to ruin the farmer's harvests outside of Piville. Then we will be able to sell them our overpriced genetically modified seeds which will surely bring a nice amount of money into the town so you can continue with the armament.

    314: How long are you planning to continue the armament of Piville? When I fled the Piville funds were a little depleted.

    314: Interesting. I wouldn't have imagined that you would do everything to achieve a higher rank.

    C. Xynth: 314. You can't escape. The residents of Piville are believing me. The Piville Police is searching you everywhere in ECC. You won't be able to hide forever. I will personally find you and hunt you down.

    314: I don't think so.

    C. Xynth: Everybody is believing my story. Now that you are gone, I have great plans which I need to secure so you can't stop me.

    314: Please tell me one thing. If you really are that megalomaniac, why didn't you proceed with the takeover of Kimigaya led by @Monkeyz505? It would have been a nice improvement for your plan. After all you even forged letters making him believe Piville was to invade his town.

    C. Xynth: First I need to create the impression that I am leading Piville towards a better era than you did. I am planning to completely erase you from the Piville history. Soon your reputation will greatly drop. Do you want to know how I am planning to do this?

    314: Yes. But I guess that you will not tell me. Am I right?

    C. Xynth: Of course. Giving you such information would open up the possibility of you ruining my plan. But don't worry, Kimigaya will soon be erased. After all I am not at all as graceful as I pretend to be.

    314: Speaking of your plan...was the bombing an idea of yours as well?

    C. Xynth: Unfortunately not. Neither was the spy leaking secret documents. I will have to take care of both once I stabilize my position as the new "Glorious leader of Piville". But don't worry, you will definitely not be able to see him leaking any more documents. The Piville Intelligence was able to find out that you are in a radius of one thousand blocks of Piville.

    This is a video message currently broadcasted on all television channels in Piville. A person can be seen with their face hidden in the dark background.


    Citizens of Piville!

    Are you angry at 314 for creating tensions between Piville and other nations? Do you think you are not correctly informed about the bombing that occured six days ago? I bet you do. And this - citizens of Piville - is the reason why I have taken control over Piville. 314 has fled, but he shall pay for his misgovernment.


    The person takes a step towards the camera and their face can be seen.


    My name is Charles Xynth. I used to be the former secretary of state and it was my job to save Piville from 314'S agressive policy towars other towns and nations. 314 has begun an unprecedented armament of Piville. This very morning a small riot started at the Cherry Blossom Avenue in the Berlin district, and 314 stopped it with the use of tanks. The whole area has been obstructed since. He created many grievances like this, for example his policy of not informing the public - yes, I mean you - after the bombing incident. There were rumors spreading about a second bomb. This rumor is true. The small bomb was only there to distract the government. I guessed this correctly and suspected a second bomb - it was me who prevented Piville of becoming a crater!


    Citizens of Piville, I hereby ask you for your support of accepting me as the new leader. My most important goals will be to de-escalate the situation with the nation of @hilv and the town of @Monkeyz505.

    A new and better time shall rise for Piville!




    Chapter 3: The takeover
    "...he shall pay for his misgovernment..."


    -11:16 am UTC-


    The investigation has finished, and a temporary stabilisation of the hole has been put in place.


    [​IMG]



    By now it seems to be guaranteed that this explosion was not in fact an accident, but a malicious attack.

    Meanwhile, rumors of a bomb discovery at the Piville military area are spreading. Until now, officials are not willing to give out information about this rumor.

    -8:57 pm UTC-


    The repairs have been finished, the crime scene where the explosion occured looks as good as new again. A few windows are yet to be replaced, but there is hardly a sign left of the bombing. However, dozens of citizens are complaining about not being informed by the government. The mood is very tense in the berlin district, a few even predict a riot coming. A part of this bad mood is also caused by the agressiveness the Piville government is showing towards other nations and towns, for example Kimigaya led by @Monkeyz505 or the indirect war declaration towards @hilv. Everybody is wondering whether the cold war between these two powers will become a full all-out war at the use of the complete Piville weaponry.

    -2:39 pm UTC-


    The investigation has started and the area has been blocked off. A structural analysis was made, the building is unlikely to collapse. However, smaller parts of rubble may fall down from the hole.


    [​IMG]



    While the investigation has just started, a police officer stated they can not deny the possibility of a bombing. In fact, it seems very likely.


    More information has yet to be collected.

    Breaking news!

    -Explosion occured in PivilleBerlin-

    -PivilleNews reporting-


    -2:13 UTC-

    Only nine minutes ago an explosion has occurred in Piville. There were no casualties and only a few people have been slightly injured. The PivilleNews was one of the first spectators at the scene. Exclusive material provided to you.



    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]



    Police officers said that the explosion was not very strong; even most windows of the damaged building are still in place. Another reason that the explosion did not injured anybody was because it does not house any residents of the town at the moment; it was temporary closed for renovation.


    The PivilleNews will publish more information as soon as the investigation begins.

    I made your orders as short as possible.

    1. Neglect the NOTMW, we have more important problems now.

    2. Find out who is responsible for the explosion.

    3. Find out what ██████'s plan is.

    From: ████████, Secretary of State

    To: @Monkeyz505, Mayor of Kimigaya


    The great leader has been informed. Hereby we grant you 72 hours to either fulfill our requirements stated by the glorious leader or to inform us about your unconditional surrender so we can take over your town. I assume you will prefer the first. This would be our preferred choice as well. Do not disappoint the glorious nation of Piville. Reply within 72 hours as of this statement with either your surrender or screenshot proof of your weapons. Coordinates of the weaponry must be provided as well.


    In case you do not agree to any of the possibilities we offered, we will feel free to declare war to Kimigaya and attack without mercy.


    Signed,

    ████████, Secretary of State.


    Piville, September 9th

    - Secret leaked internal document -


    This document may be the base for a future press conference. The final decision is up to the glorious leader, 314. Until then its content should not be revealed to the public.


    From: ████████, Secretary of State

    To: @Monkeyz505 , Mayor of Kimigaya


    @Monkeyz505, your offer of peace may be heard, but maybe not. Piville is an expanding nation with possibly great territorial needs. Offering peace to such a glorious nation like Piville may result in a truce, but it may as well result in a war declaration so we can take over the town. In order to declare peace, you have to prove that you could defend yourself in case we would attack and you are thus worthy to be spared. The following weapons are needed for this:

    - 1 tank

    - 1 fighter jet

    Evidence of the weaponry's existence must be provided. If those requirements are met, Piville will agree to not attack you. This truce may end at any time if your town continues the armament beyond this border. If this happens, we will attack with full force, meaning the use of an ICBM, tanks and airplanes. The final decision is up to 314 himself.


    Signed,

    ████████, Secretary of State.


    Piville, September 7th 2014.

    - Secret leaked internal document -


    This document is highly classified and must not be leaked to the public at all cost.


    From: 314, glorious leader of Piville

    To: ███████, secretary of defence


    ███████,

    the situation is urgent. Today multiple secret documents have been leaked to the public and now everybody knows about our classified █████ ██ project as well as about our planned alliance with the Helix Nation. As if this wasn't already ███ ██ ███ █ █████, I ███ ███████ an anonymous mail. Apparently the spy must be well-informed; he threatened to reveal another secret document to the public soon. The PI (Piville intelligence) is currently trying to retrace ███ ████ ██ █████ ██ apparently he was able to completely hide its origin. This spy is a serious threat to our plans. Your task: Unmask and disable. Leakage of another classified document, for example the █████ ███ ████████ ██ ████, would give our opponents a great advantage. Especially the possibility of the spy supplying the NOTMW editorial office consists. If he does this, we might have a ███ ██ █ ██████. I await your report as soon as possible. Do not disappoint me, ███████.


    Aside from this, our Vehicle Assembly Building for improved and easier tank construction has been finished.


    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]



    [​IMG]

    This is another information that must not be leaked to the public. If this happens, we will have to swap to plan C. It is now more necessary than ever before to conquer the NOTMW office as soon as possible to create our own propaganda to counterattack the leaked documents.


    Signed,

    314, the glorious leader of Piville.


    Piville, September 6th 2014.

    This confidential document has been leaked to the public via unknown means.

    From: ██████, secretary of defence.
    To: @314, glorious leader of the Pivillean Empire.


    Master @314,
    The first tests of the new J-1 fighter jet prototype have been successful after we were able to produce a working one.
    The prototype is currently undergoing thorough testing, but we are optimistic that it can exceed out expectations. It was a good idea to hide our aircraft program from the public, especially since today’s press conference might have drawn international attention towards Piville.

    Being not only the pivillean secretary of defence but also the project leader for all of our weaponry programs, I can proudly announce that our P-1 tank production is running well. I have made a few minor modifications, but I am very happy with the design. We have been able to produce two tanks so far, more have yet to come.

    Signed,
    ██████, secretary of defence.

    Piville, September 6th 2014.

    September 6th 2014. 12:00 A.M. – Conference room. Glory Hall, Piville.

    @314 entered the room, carrying a stack of documents. The reporters surrounded him as he went over to the podium.

    “Sir, will you explain why you initiated this press conference?”
    “Mister @314, various rumors have spread since you have avoided any public appearance for almost a month. Could you please state what convinced you to reappear now?”
    “Many people have been arrested within the past weeks; none of them was officially brought to court. Can you give a statement about why this has happened?”

    @314 ignored them all and stepped onto the podium. He adjusted the microphone.
    “Ladies and gentlemen”, he began. “I have initiated this official conference to notify you about the next plans of the glorious Piville and its leader. Today, a new age is beginning for the Pivillean Empire and I did not want to exclude the international press from such an event.
    The Pivillean Empire always was - and still is - a nation that some people look up to, but others look down to. The development of the capital town, Piville, has brought much positive attention upon us. However, we are being threatened by the political global players and it is our duty to keep the Pivillean Empire safe from any foreign influence.
    In the last few days a secret armament has taken place in a military area inside the Berlin district of the capital. While Piville was missing knowledge to build acceptable weapons, we have used our spy technology to enter the towns of multiple highly armed nations, evading the weak security systems. Studying their arms has given us enough knowledge about weaponry to create our own series of tanks. We have modified the blueprints of tanks we found, and thus we can officially present the P-1 tank today.”

    The members of the pivillean military in the back row applauded as the reporters took notes of @314’s speech. This seemed to be material for the front pages of the various newspapers they represented. As the applause faded, he continued his presentation.

    “As well, our first missile tests have been successful. Piville now officially owns an armed and working missile silo, waiting for the day it will be used.
    Now, ladies and gentlemen, you may wonder what the next goals of glorious Piville are. After all, we are a rising new nation. The answer is simple - to establish a safe position in the global nation ranking, it is necessary for us to secure our borders and guarantee a safe supply of resources. However, we are not aiming for the very top of this ranking, reserved for the post powerful nations of all. At least...not yet.
    Be prepared, the time of peace is about to end. The Pivillean Empire will finally achieve the status it deserves. We may leave ruins behind, but only in nations that will not accept us.”

    The reporters were noting down as much as they could, trying to remember as many details as possible. Apparently the Pivillean Empire was planning to invade other towns and nations.
    The voices in the room became louder and louder, he nearly shouted “Thank you for your attention. This press conference is hereby officially closed” into the tumult, only few people heard him. They all hurried towards the exit as their deadline approached. Within two minutes, the conference room was empty again.

    Chapter 6, Episode 9 added.
    A wind of change is arriving in Piville...but where will it lead to?

    Please also look at the bonus chapter which will be updated semi-independently from the main story. :)
