Important officials from the Empire, high-ranking nobles from Elenthaeus and officials from all over the galaxy, are gathering to attend this once-in-a-lifetime event, which presents rare opportunities to mingle with some of the galaxy’s most influential people, discuss politics and jockey for more influence and power. Coinciding with a yearly, traditional carnival, Cattamascar would also be hosting an Imperial wedding and the union of two different nations, two cultures so unlike eachother, yet which have somehow, against all odds, found a way to coexist.Īn Imperial wedding is something which only happens once every generation. Now, after months of planning, preparation and negotiations, the day had come, the time to seal the pact and bring the small Kingdom under the crimson banner of the Eternal Empire. The price which the Kingdom had to pay, was a marriage alliance between its ruling monarch, Vyra SilaraĪnd the dictator which held Kalidan in an iron grip. Eventually, the small Kingdom found a way to preserve its freedom as a vassal state of the rising Eternal Empire. Negotiations began between the governments of Elenthaeus and Kalidan, treaties were discussed, agreed upon and signed. Months ago, before the Empire’s devastating campaign of subjugation began, the world of Cattamascar, now under the control of the Kingdom of Elenthaeus, had recognized the growing power of the Eternal Empire and realized that it faced a difficult choice. Yet, not all worlds were blind to the danger they faced, not all ignored the ominous shadows growing around their borders. Tygeria, Bakura, Abbaji and Verkuyl had already fallen prey to the Empire’s ambitions, taken by surprise and crushed under the armored boots of its military. The dark shadows of the Eternal Empire continue to spread across the Unknown Regions, engulfing world after world, crushing all opposition in its path, surely and ruthlessly suffocating every glimmer of hope and freedom.
Excerpt from the Articles of Founding, the Eternal Empire’s constitution The government is hereby charged with the sacred and eternal duty to create Order where there is Chaos, Hierarchy where there is Anarchy, to observe and enforce the application of Imperial Law upon all worlds, to expand the borders of the Empire and to safeguard and advance the interests and wellbeing of the State, by any and all means necessary and at any cost, against all enemies, whether foreign or domestic.”
The Imperial government shall henceforth be constituted from the highest ranking military officials within the borders of the Empire. The Nation’s only legitimate, legal and recognized form of government, as outlined within this document, shall henceforth be a stratocratic military dictatorship.
“.Henceforth, all authority within the Eternal Empire, shall be derived not from the corrupt politicians or the feeble, impressionable masses, but from the State, embodied by its military, at the head of which sits the Eternal Emperor as hereditary supreme commander of the armed forces, by the creed which binds the Nation together, by the people which it governs.
