Aeons of Malignance: Anarchism
WarderDragon

At the behest of Senator Goodfellow, the High Lords of Britannia held a public forum to discuss and debate the meaning of the recent riots and the incidence of anarchism that has ensued.

For those unaware, the past weeks have been filled with violence, as citizens and radicals disillusioned with the Britannian and Magincian governments have begun organizing violent protests and riots. The governments of both states have responded, in turn, with violence of their own. Though on the surface, the riots are an eclectic collection of those espousing socialist or anarchist values, some suspect something more sinister. Transhumanists and others showing evidence of mutation have been found amongst the radials, though it is unclear if the underground cults of Exodus or the Shadowlords are behind these uprisings.

Below are some of the major highlights of the discussion.

Senator Goodfellow chaired the event. In attendance was Councilors Elladan, Magdalena, Christianson and Wildstar. Ta'lin was late, and Fig was absent.

Silverbrook, representing the Isle of Magincia and the Cult of the Azure Dragon, was also in attendance.

Senator Goodfellow called for a truce between the warring powers and the independent states, suggesting that all band together to provide aid to the starving and the impoverished. The stores of Castle Britannia be thrown open and distributed to the common people as famine sweeps the realm.

Senator Goodfellow called for a drive to be held on Wednesday, February 15th, to distribute rations to the people of J'helom in Trammel.

Senator Goodfellow called for the mobilization of the Red Ankh, a multinational aid foundation, to distribute supplies and tend to the sick.

Senator Elladan seemed adverse to the suggestions of Goodfellow, declaring that his main interest was the maintenance of Trinsic. Another pointed out that he was elected to oversee and protect the realm of Britannia, not just one township, to which he responded “it is a large city.”

The Nameless One brought highlighted concerns over the nature of those instigating the riots and the potential connection to Exodus. His concerns were dismissed.

James brought attention to "Winged Overlords" that have declared a sort of martial law in Vesper.

Queen Shieba's Alliance, the sovereign order of Virtue, pledged to oversee aid in Britain, while the Order of the Thorn pledged to defend Yew. Elladan pledged to Trinsic, and Dar to Skara Brae. Amber to Moonglow. The New Magincian Thieves Guild pledged to Old Magincia, while the New Magincian Parliament is pledged to New Magincia.

Re: [RP News] Aeons of Malignance: Anarchism

Fern: Our Captain has retired. CharChar is still not well. Magincian affairs have not yet been settled. There is a lot going on.

On top of this, there is this spirit of anarchy swelling in our land. In all our lands. It is spreading. It is in the Britannian cities. It is in the countryside. It is closing in on some of the other Kingdoms. It is more than just a cry for freedom. It is more than just unsettledness. There seems to be some plan behind it. Something is coming. And when it does, not the Council, not the Parliament of New Magincia, not the Independent Kingdoms, nothing will be able to stop it.

So I say, here and now, we all pledge to work together to quell and quiet this unfashionable spirit. Whether we are Britannian, or not. Council, or not. Because when this all comes out, and the world is tripped out from under us, there is no realm, island or kingdom in which we will be able to hide. So first and foremost, before we discuss anythingers, can we soooo all put aside all our quarrels for the now, all our bickerings and disputes, and come together, and say that we will resolve to work together to restore our world.

Elladan: We are together, but you have said little so far.

Fern: We will propose together. All of us. So let's start that now. There are no more "You people."

The strange thing about the riots though, if you all noticeders, is that they are not targeting any of the nobility, or the Castles. They are targeting businesses of the working class.

What I suggest first and foremost is that we dispatch the Red Ankh.

Elladan: I know not any Red Ankh.

Fern: It is the Sosarian relief services organization. I believe we should all come together and deliver food, clothing and emergency surplusses to the suffering. We will all meet at a place, and supplies will be distributed. We can bring them to the corners of the world. It would take us only a few days to gather supplies.

Alouenikah: But Lady, the Councils are in conflict. My people of Moonglow, they say if I go to Trinsic... I am no friend of Moonglow anymore.

Fern: There are to be no more Conflicts. Right now, there are only people in need.

Alouenikah: Is it safe for us to be neutral?

Fern: We are not being neutral. We are on the side of the worlders! Would any be interested in doing this?

Elladan: And give what to whom?

The Nameless One: The common people, those you swore to protect.
Fern: We will gather food, clothing and supplies.

Silverbrook: I think Lady Goodfellow is correct. We need to act together to resolve these issues we -all- face.

Fern: We all need to be together right now. Let us see if the emergency supplies quell the unrest. Together. All agreed?

Elladan: I still know not what you intend to give to whom, or when, where or how?

Fern: This is aid for the needy. If you are among them, you will receive aid. And yes, we must work together to discover what this spirit of anarchy is really about. Can we have the supplies ready for next Wednesday?
