Luthori requests Beiteynu withdraws its CSF fleet from Artania

Regarding: Luthorian imperial diplomats talking Beiteynu counterparts
Date: 5407-8
Discoverable: Maybe, yes.

Luthorian Imperial Embassy to Beiteynu: It is an understatement that the Luthorian government is severly dissapointed in the Kundrati government's move to call for Beiteynu help in the situation surrounding Ikradon. The problem lies in the fact that the Luthorian government sees itself as fully capable of dealing with the crisis alone without calling help from its Yeudi allies. Furthermore it is very much irritated that the Kundrati's didnt ask the Luthorians, the second power on the continent, for help or to coordinate things.

To that end, Brad McDougless, the former minister of Foreign Affairs and now Imperial Ambassador in Yishelem has been tasked to initiate talks with the Beiteynu government. The Imperial Government has through Brad McDougless, who is a staunch believer in Luthorian power and a hardliner when it comes to being Pro-Fort William-Yishelem relations - except that he finds their lack of tea drinking most disturbing - is been tasked to woo the Beiteynu's to let the Luthorian Empire deal with the crisis and for Beiteynu to leave and speak with confidence that the Empire can manage it without their help.

To that end the Ambassador has through backchannels requested a secret meeting with government officials, aided by various diplomats from Luthori. Officially, the talk will be about continued cooperation and events in Artania and Majatra, unofficially there is really only one topic of the Agenda: Asking Beiteynu to step aside in order for Luthori to rise to the occassion. And as is tradition Ambassador McDougless has brought biscuits with him from Luthori, a fine tradition the two nations diplomats have developed together over the years.

Das Büro has secretly killed the leader of the Communist Party, covering up the evidence and pretending he is incarcerated in "Die Grube", the highest security prison in Nsanlosa

Regarding:Galaan Feulner, Communist Party leader
Date: End of 5407
Discoverable?: No, but.... (over time it will become harder for the Bureau to hide the "removal" of Feulner, thus increasing chances of discovery)

WARNING: NSFW

Nsanlosa: Das Büro - Political Section, at the informal order of State President Von Meyer, has "disposed off" now former communist leader Galaan Feulner. After several months of proper incarceration Büro director Eli Kifeda suggested to the president that the risk of Feulner stirring up anti government sentement upon release was "considerable" and that "disposing of the threat" could be a viable option. State President Von Meyer reportedly thought of the idea for around two to three days before giving the order to execute Feulner. The subsequent operation, carried out by the political section of the bureau, saw Feulner strangled to death in the interrogation room before being stuffed inside a plastic wrapping and brought to the crematorium, where the body was cremated. The Bureau continues to claim that Feulner is in the high security "Grube" prison, with a court order obtained by the bureau suggesting that Feulner cannot have contact with the outside or his family. He was sentenced to corruption and treason after his death with a petty criminal having been used by Das Büro to arrive in court in Feulner's name. The criminal was later also executed by the Bureau to cover its tracks.

Yishelem's whispers on an endgame in Artania

Regarding: Luthori requests Beiteynu withdraws its CSF fleet from Artania, Medinat Department slams Dorvish Foreign Minister
Date: November 5408
Discoverable: Yes

Sneakyeth Avodi, the Head of the Medinat Department, left the Luthorian embassy shaking his head; he could not for the life of him understand why that entire building had no goddamn coffee, only tea.

He had a bitter taste in his mouth - not from the tea - that Luthori was acting like and pretty much dead set in becoming Dorvik. The new foreign policy doctrine set earlier this year immediately raised eyebrows in Eroncourt and Yishelem alike and Avodi was pretty much blistered why Fort William kept puffing its chest in its silo, setting a precedent towards a path that both the Canrillaise and Yeudis were all too familiar with; and hated it.

He told McDougless; surely the Luthorians must understand that Beiteynu will not abandon Kundrati, no? Beiteynu has already told Dorvik twice to go screw itself when they applied pressure on exactly the same thing. Now Luthori wants to go down the same path, with Ikradon and Davostag in Kasaema's docket?

Beiteynu will form a 4th CSG under a Zaar Fleet deployment in Artania; the power vacuum generated by the Dorvish internal crisis is there. In the north, the pressure would have been insurmountable and Kasaema would have backed down - that's CSCO territory. But the southeast? That's an entirely different ballgame, with a Zaar Fleet already present in Kundrati for more than 100 years now. That place is not a power vacuum; it's just geopolitical complexity.

The Migrant's Pass was the biggest thorn and the biggest opportunity. On one end, an entire continent cooperating; on the northern end, divisiveness.

Sneakyeth had looked the imperial ambassador in the eye: "remember the endgame, sir" he had said, pretending to like the tea. Then he reminded McDougless how Beiteynuese Zaar Fleets are essentially commanded by host nations.

He shook the ambassador's hand while leaving, whispering "it's literally up to you how things will play out and quite frankly, nobody else's".

Their YC pins shined in the morning light.

A swift securisation, and a wanted support.

Regarding: George Withelam and Windrij Klienders, Luthorian Ambassador to Ikradon and RPHUA's [Provisional Royal Harmonist Unitary Authority] Representative to Luthori, Luthorian and Ikradonian
Date: 11th, June 5409
Discoverable?: No, unless if...
Location: Former Ikradonese Embassy in Luthori, now, Luthorian Embassy in Ikradon provisional builiding, 2 Martwick Road, Fort William.

The Luthorian Embassy in Ikradon has been closed for several months following the theft of part of the money donated to Ikradon by the Foreign Investment and Development Bank, and following the total collapse of the authority present in Ikradon saw the Imperial Luthorian Army enters the territory of Ikradon to set up a humanitarian zone where refugees and displaced people can reside until the fighting in the country calms down. But the Luthorian Ambassador to Ikradon, this role still existing even though the embassy was closed and relations between the two nations are at a standstill, George Withelam, is to receive the secret representative of the recognized Provisional Royal Harmonist Unity Authority, for the moment by certain nations, secretly or officially, as being the legitimate government of Ikradon, especially with the total collapse of the Republican Protection Guard, a clique claiming to be the legitimate government of Ikradon, which collapsed following the Luthorian intervention. This representative known as "Pikers" by the Ambassador, but known by his real identity by the Imperial Security Service as Windrij Klienders, an early supporter of the royalist cause in Ikradon.

He arrived at the Ikradon Embassy in Luthori, closed for several months since the start of the civil war, and serving as the resident building of the Luthori Embassy in Ikradon for an interim period. After a fairly long meeting with the Ambassador, many points were made, but in the end, his main objective was secured. Luthori would recognize, one day, the government of the RPHUA when "the situation requires it" in the words of the Ambassador, but shipments of weapons and food to the territories of the RPHUA by the Luthorians, via a secret operation of the Imperial Security Service, to prevent the active involvement of the Luthorians from being discovered.

Fort William is definitely involved in the Ikradonese Civil War, nothing can change that.

Dorvish FM coordinating with Luthori on Beiteynuese CSG?

Regarding: Kohav issues 1st Azhara to Davostag, Luthori requests Beiteynu withdraws its CSF fleet from Artania, [url=forum.particracy.net/viewtopic.php?p=190514#p190514]Yishelem's whispers on an endgame in Artania[/url]
Date: December 5408
Discoverable: Yes, through intelligence services, if useful for RP

It is no secret that Dorvik has watched with alarm as Beiteynu has openly crossed a "red line" established by the Hosian Conservative Alliance government in 5378 by deploying a carrier group to Kundrati. It has come as surprise to some, perhaps, that Dorvik has not enforced that red line. Many attribute this to an inherent weakness in the nascent government of Dorvik as it struggles to keep the ship of state afloat.

But the foreign ministry is rumored to have reached out to Luthori in an uncharacteristic manner after rumors of the Empire's displeasure at Beiteynu's presence on Artania have surfaced. Details are murky, but it is believed that Dorvik proposes that both states should continue to protest Beiteynu's actions, and should seek further Artanian input on the issue as well.

Destroy Dorvish hegemony: the Artanian Yeudi Plot

Regarding: "The time is now"; Sneakyeth delegation tours Artania, Yishelem's whispers on an endgame in Artania
Date: June 5409
Discoverable: By Kundrati, Luthori, Dorvish intelligence, someone in Narikaton & Darnussia and, of course, Lourenne

Sneakyeth's delegation in Artania has 2 important stops: Kasaema and Fort William.

Yishelem has always wanted to protect Yeudis outside of Beiteynu - and the way it chose to do that is by creating and placing strategic deterrents all over the globe, built on influence, commerce and in recent cases, the tactical deployments of naval fleets. The muscle of Beiteynuese influence across Terra - the meddling, if you will - became so strong only because it arrived at a critical juncture: the simultaneous decline of Dorvik, not by itself, but by the rise of others.

Beiteynu's change of pace in exerting firmness came after 207 years of meddling: the coronation of Meleh Elias Ishmael IV. The thing that is most confusing for others about Beiteynu is the fact that Yishelem is not a direct meddler in the most meddling sense; one of its biggest arsenals has always been leveraging 1) situations like the Trigunian sanctions and now Ikradon indirectly and 2) strategical "backing down" to obfuscate its reach even more.

So Beiteynu is never anywhere, but it's always everywhere.

Just because the world forgot or didn't really bat an eye to the splendours of Beiteynuese intelligence, does not mean that the Terran Remediation Agency did not in fact assassinate the country's own Prime Minister to open the floodgates of Artanian meddling. The reason always lingered in the air; the world's recurring mistake in dealing with Beiteynu has always been in regarding Yeudish shenanigans as mere passings or blots in history - isolated events, instead of the actual dominoes that Yishelem has always placed, in being under the meticulous planning of the Yeudi Way.

Everything about Beiteynu seems complex, intriguing, adorned in mystique. It's actually not when you remember that everything Beiteynu does and justifies is to protect Yeudis and those who are keen to protect Yeudis along with Beiteynu; those who play the Yeudi Game.

It's the Yeudish shtick of Yeudi shmucks about the Yeudi Heritage born out of the Yeudi Diaspora.

And what better way is there to protect your race everywhere, when you can't actually be everywhere, than to make sure nobody specific can move against your race? The most twisted meaning of "tov yoter lehoulam (greater good for all)" in securing world peace by essentially meddling the shit out of it.

The vacuum will be filled, one way or another. Ikradon, Davostag are mere tactical situations in a bigger, world-shaping fight: the leftovers of the triumvirate, now largely being a Beiteynuese & Lourennais world countering a historic Dorvish hegemony, as Yishelem moves its final pieces to obliterate it.

Thus, the ASCO and the JAMS concepts were born, which Yishelem will seek to broker; itself, via Fort William or Kasaema, it matters not.
