King Josiah Liwave of The 21st Noble House's Story

King Josiah: Entering the grand structure of the Gladiolus Assembly Hall which housed the grand debating hall and the historical archives. Although as he walked through the spectacular and impressive hallway lined with a thousand portraits of the past leaders, from Byron Monate considered one of the finest from the unfortunate King who's reign ended his family, the name was Perigia, and though his time had been unfortunate, there was one thing he had done, that was renewing the space program, but still people regarded the past king with scorn. The many golden busts occasionally popped up, not all the rulers had deserved such an honour, below was the grand emerald carpet, which led along the hall.

On either side along this one passageway were doors leading to the various rooms, back down was the mezzanine with double grand staircase whose steps were made out white marble.

As he walked on towards the assembly hall, he considered what and wondered why Alara and Mercuxio had called him, they were some of the better of the nobles. They even ignored his so-called blight on his own blood, but as it stood, he had no idea what to expect.

Though he was not worried much, they were probably asking to expand the current factories to further in the Tri-dwer Valley as Zumillion was facing problems with the pollution and well moving the industries further out, could rectify this temporarily, although his Mother's family, bless her soul really was really protective of the eco-system of their great and prosperous continent. In the end concessions would need to be made, and no doubt the leader of the Catraxi probably wanted some words in, in the end he could only try his best to make the decisions right for the nation, not let his blood be the deciding factors.

With one light push he entered the spacious room which contained a large table with each chair having the insignia of each Noble House carved into the wood. The two Heads were not here yet, which meant he could call for some tea.

Approaching a table he tapped the mechan

Approaching a table he tapped the mechanical bell; a impressive device that was part clock-work and coated in gold lining, the very thing was connected to the servants quarters and sent a loud bong over to their place.

Heading down to the table, he took his seat at the largest and many luxurious chair, as he awaited the arrival of Alara and Mercuxio, ready now to begin the game, many called politics.

King Josiah: Seeing both of them he would nod and take a sip of his tea, before beginning, "I see you are both here, am I to understand you wish to discuss the current pollution problem in Zumillion slowing down your work?" he would take another small before continuing, "I understand you Alara are concerned about your daughter, but I would wish you don't rush to the conclusion that the Keng-Li are to blame as for you Mercuxio your letter with your suggestions would anger my Mother, as you are well aware Aejet preserve our wonderful eco-system and grand landmarks, you really think you could find a way to persuade them to allow such an action to expand the Industrial area and move it into the Tri-dwer Valley?"

He would watch them both, awaiting their replies.

King Josiah: The middle-aged man would sigh heavily appearing rather tired, "You have any proof, anything that could link your family unfortunate execution and we are investigating it, but Philip I don't have the liberty nor the right to point fingers. Of course the Keng-Li are my suspect number one but Coro-Li have assured me that their twisted offspring have been quiet so considering how much I trust her, I will not do anything unnecessary, if you can find any proof then I will investigate, but as it is, I have always been fair in my decision and you should know this Philip so why do you keep making things harder for me?"

King Josiah: Appearing little more older after that outburst he said, "My suggestion Philip is do what Sola and Drite family did, marry into another, I know you were one of the first families and I respect that Philip, in a way I wish we could go back five years ago, when things were less tense, but the Alara need to survive and hounding a killer will destroy you Phil."

King Josiah: He would pause and take another sip of his tea, and considering the nobles and try remember anything he had heard. After a bit he would stand up and start pacing the room, going over to the fireplace and drawing up the poker and beginning to work over the coals, as they burned and allowed the fire to heat the room.

Eventually he would stand up and say, "Anakari, I know you were never fond of the nobles who live in Ideoris, but well this family may be militant but they have offered much funding towards peaceful alternates to improving certain aspects of our life, surely this idea is not that bad.

King Josiah: Once more returning his seat he would reply simply, "Philip times are changing have been for a while, notice most of the citizens disagree with how the nobles act, everything slowly leading up to something, of what I am not sure. If she must marry that way, then we must allow this and well Philip I know you still do have grand ideas you could offer the family, eight years ago I have not forgotten the council which was established and what was discussed."

King Josiah: The codicils established in that meeting had been intregal but it was after he had spoken with four families Alara, Mercuxio, Coro-Li and finally Soladrite, a decision had been made in the case the Monarchy ever fell apart these four families would form a Government thus leading to the end of tradition, it had been a noble decision and hard, but during that time there had been Catraxian serial killer.

"I am glad you remember, well I will allow this take some funding from your treasury and explore yourself."

a lone ship cloaked the size of average cruiser was nearby and though it had come up for scientific purposes it noticed the mass fleet. Fortunately Mezzadrate was invisible to all but with those who used the same technology as the great continent. On board was the King not such a shock, but nonetheless making something like this an interesting situation.

Having been informed they were scanning for life down below once again, he had not expected a opportunity like this, therefore he was going to go with his gut here and patch through to their command ship.

The command was made, and a connection was set.

Speaking through the intercom he would announce himself, "I am King Josiah Liwave of the 21st Noble House of the great continent Mezzadrate we are breaking our silence as we believe we may be able to share our knowledge, we are aware you are also silent and therefore believe we could help another. You have five minutes to respond our else we shall move and you will never find us." closing the channel he would frown, he hoped he was doing the right thing here.

Clearly perturbed by this, Josiah sighed heavily before patching into the video-feed and finally speaking, "We don't intend harm but the existence of the continent is a guarded secret, you have to understand we are simply trying to survive. We will not attack but we wish for you to declare your motives, my empire wishes to not start wars as we have bigger concerns."

Josiah was playing a very dangerous game here, and he thought that they should be careful as this entire fleet far outmanned them.

Noting their comment he would speak to his Commander Winston Carlisle about this, "What you think, can we trust them?"

The young man would consider slowly, checking over the console, before replying, "Majesty I am not sure, but we are needing allies and with how things are getting we may need them sooner than you believe. The world has changed."

The king would nod before responding, "What is your motives and can you swear to only allow a detachment of five men to meet us? Anymore and we call this off, for we have secrets and great achievement, we must first think you are worthy of them."

Nodding at the screen, he would make the command as a great continent would appear from below spanning great distance with ships flying around and buildings reaching great heights. The whole thing would seem like something out of science-fiction movie, very advanced and industrialised.

With that the ship would uncloak itself and reveal to the Cybran leading them towards the space port on Jurallix which normally house the King's ship alone.

Landing the ship he had noted to the comm tower to allow this ship to land here, declaring that no one but five people can leave. He would hope no shooting would take place since that would be awfully tiring. Nevertheless he felt good about this, as the Royal ship docked and him Afferforth his huge golem departed down the gangway to meet these people.

He was not sure what to expect, but if worse came to worse he did have best bodyguard anyone could ask for.

Josiah looked at the ship as Afferforth appeared to be scanning the ship, checking for any weaknesses, running diagnostics about, trying to determine details and facts. Knowing this the king let it, but would say his golem, "Afferforth we are meant to welcome, but stand close, and be sure to make sure they never leave if they are hostile." the golem would nod and reply in gravelly tone, "I will be ready, they are arrogant and believe themselves superior, but their ships are light and can be grabbed and disabled."

Walking over to them all, Afferforth the huge golem would follow in tow, appearing to regard these people with great suspicion. Josiah noting this would say, "This is my goelm, Afferforth, I am afraid he's not fond of new people, especially those who carry themselves. Welcome to our wonderful capital of Jurallix we are a wonderful place where you may notice some renaissance style architecture further in, just be sure to keep your weapons to yourselves and remember, we at Mezzadrate all have Golems at least in area we are about to enter, and these golems solemn duty is to protect us."

Shaking his head Josiah would listen before finally responding, "My palace is in this quarter of the capital. We already have fantastic builders and skilled craftsmen, I would not deign to ask you to do more." his eyes would stare up in concern before he continued, "If you must have whole fleet here, please use our space port Rarize as this area is not meant for anyone but those of royal persuasion."

The golem would point in direction before walking away from them, it's movements like that of Gorilla, a very huge metal gorilla.

The King meanwhile would await the chariot to arrive to take them to the Palace so they could discuss further.

The king would consider this all carefully before responding having been listening to what the men had said, "My fleet is marginable if you wish for one of them to be the five, then do so. We will not accept anything more we are afraid."

As he was about continue, a horse-drawn chariot drew up, an exquisitely designed vehicle that seemed elegant but also purposeful, it dragged a huge trailer which the golem seemed to move on to and wait.

The king would then say, "Best decide, for we have much to discuss I do believe."

Looking up at the fleet heading towards Rarize he would stand on the steps of carriage thinking hard before finally responding, "Five more people and they must be unarmed and solely be advisors, you are a visitor here and I have right to my protect citizens if you ask more, then expect a clear no. You must understand this is a risk I am taking, a golem is nothing compared to tech you have at hand, is it?"

"Very well now can we leave, I run this entire continent so I don't have time to dally." he appeared to be getting impatient, a communicator on him would announce that the ships have landed in Rarize. Noting this he would frown before saying, "Shall we go now?" not waiting he climbed into the carriage which was actually rather spacious considering, it also seemed to have a table within with some paperwork on it.

Taking the document he would wonder aloud, "Don't you believe this is rather premature, we are wanton of allies. But to rush things seems unwise, nay insane." he appeared rather perturbed by this, before he actually spoke to them properly, "Should this not wait until we are at the Palace, besides I can not make head nor tail of this document as it appears to be some strange language."
