Civilization RP

"We are stepping away from the point, gentlemen." Rhosyn stated flatly. "We still do not know for certain that the Steel Lords are at fault for this. If silence were a country's confession of guilt, then the Phyrix Collective would have been scape goated many times before this."

She frowned and looked between the leaders. "An all out war is pointless. You would just be falling into whatever plot they had waiting for you. Have you thought that is what the terrorists want? Some way of de-stabilizing your country?" she said coldly.

[Ben]

"She does have a valid point, this could be exactly what the enemy wants, a destabilizing war. If it is self acting radicals we could make a really bad choise resulting in a bloody war." I rub my forehead in frustration, "this is a very complex situation that requires more than a few bits of intelligence to base an oppinion on"

[The Past]

"Y-yes, that's why I'm hesitant to punish Cooper right away." Jovri replied. "It's only an assumption, for that information is all we have."

"If he is though, Burrklau needs support from allies. We're small and our technology is no match for Steel Lords'. Any sudden attack may wipe our army out. We need help."

[[INACTIVE]]

Bailey stood up and smiled, "With my military of over 25 million, we will support you with anything you need." Bailey paces around the room with his arms behind his back.

[Rho'Syn Ilwynog]

The Luminarch looked at Bailey, a knowing light entering her eyes.


"Bailey, what would you gain from this war? Why are you so eager to throw your country's lives away for something that has not basis in reality, and is simply speculation." she said cooly.


She turned to Jovri. "Jovri, do you know if Bailey would benefit from a war at this point? What has he offered you in assistance?"

Suddenly she felt very cold. This was a trap situation. Her country would be very solitary in the coming conflict if she was not careful. But truth outweighed suspicion.

[The Past]

The entire attending Burrklau party were in silent shock at Arestoska's offer.

"W-well I-I don't want to start any war," Jovri said. "I want to avoid that entirely! I'm only concerned with having a decent defense in case our island is targeted, no more than that. What can happen will happen, a-as we say...."

[[INACTIVE]]

Bailey stopped in his tracks. He turned and looked at The Luminarch, he looked angry now, very angry. "Because after sanction after sanction I have lost so much money! War sells, And with a war The Union could become strong once again! Fear Monger the people to think that the enemy will attack! They will buy bomb shelters, food, and water for survival! Mass produce weapons and sell them for profit to are allies!" He sat back down and straighten his tie and coughed.

[Rho'Syn Ilwynog]

The Luminarch stood up, a slight figure, but imposing in the statement, burning with a quiet fury.


"I will not drag my country into a greedy warmonger's desperate attempt to make a quick dollar. War for profit's sake will do nothing but anger the people, damage the reputation of your country, and cause more chaos than it is worth."

Rhosyn held up a slender mechanical finger to point it at Bailey.


"How do we know that it was not you who caused the assassination attempt? What proof do we have that, since it sounds like you are the one who would benefit from this the most, you are innocent?"

[[INACTIVE]]

Bailey looked at his guards. They all began to luagh, "You're kidding me right now? You honestly think I did it, That is one of the funniest things I have heard all week. Also my reputation has already crashed and burned, after my father died so did this country. The people of Arestoska hate ever other country on this planet!"

 He slams his fist onto the table "I lost two of my best guards to these people! And you acusse me of being the one who did this? I don't need you're help to destroy one nation! I have done it once and I will do it again!"

[Rho'Syn Ilwynog]

"Exactly." she said coldly.


"You have nothing to loose, therefor you would do anything to get revenge on the countries you hate. You have no care of your own manpower, otherwise you wouldn't be so happy to start a war and throw away your people's lives. Your reputation is in the dirt therefor you have nothing that you wouldn't do to take back the power you lost. Your people would happily die because you have spurned the very land they live on, and you are desperate."

She crossed her arms in her robes and sat back down. "It seems to me that someone who was desperate enough to reach the means to their own end would do exactly what has been done, and, at the moment, the only country I see desperate enough to do so is yours."

[The Past]

 Jovri and Adari turned to each other and muttered in their native language. They agreed with the Luminarch, but if they denied support from Arestoska, would it bring more danger to Burrklau?

The young Sigikel turned back to the leaders. "We agree with you," he said. "We appreciate the offer, Mr. Arestoska, but we do not want to be involved in any war, a-at the very least until we know for sure we'll be attacked, wh-where no diplomacy can work it out. We believe people's lives are not tools and targets."

[Ben]

"I stand with Arestoska," I pause, "He is not the only one that grows with the ferocity of war, me and my people are always more than willing to help"

[[INACTIVE]]

Bailey looked at Ben and smiled, "See. He understands, Grow from war. It is what my grandfather did , to make this country great. And Jovri. I understand where you are coming from."

[Rho'Syn Ilwynog]

Rhosyn shook her head.


"Jovri, if you need assistance finding the assassin, my intelligence agencies would be happy to help. However, if it comes to war, the Phyrix Collective will not assist with mindless blood shed."


She turned to Bailey. "I wonder why you called this meeting other than to find countries to go to war with you."

[Ben]

I turn and babble a few things to one of my guards in our native tongue and he laughs, I turn back around and smile.
