Sasaufe's dispair, the corrupting of Kauzka

Sasaufe selected her outfit carefully. One of the three females in the male-dominated council of 10, she was also the leader of the terrorist group known as the Kioko, which was also the name of the ancient tribes of Felinius Paradisum. She scowled as she remembered the horrible name her country had been given, and that that fool Ranxiagrir hadn't stepped up against it. They were too submissive, him and the people on the council that weren't part of her group. But no matter. He was gone now and hopefully dead if her agents had done their job properly. She selected a ceremonial robe, one very similar to the one Ranxiagrir himself wore, but with the sign of her organisation on it, a red cats paw-print with a rising sun behind it. She laughed to herself, if the mission failed the Procellian's would be none the wiser to who Ranxiagrir was, as the fool was so eager to pander to more countries that he hadn't even sent word ahead of his arrival. At the very least he would be detained until the language barrier was passed, which would allow her time to kill off the rest of the council or convert them to her side, and maybe even start the rebellion before he even realized. In the best case scenario they would be barbaric enough to just slaughter him on the spot, but she thought this was wishful thinking. 
She left her room and walked out to the balcony which allowed her a view of her city, and them of her. Already a crowd was gathering to hear her speak. 'People' She started 'the time has come, you have been held under the oppression of the foreigner sympathizing Ranxiagrir for too long!' The crowd cheered 'But no more I and the rest of my order are going to push him off his throne and re-instate the old ways, too long have you worshiped in fear of his police, too long have you suffered as our culture was changed at the whim of an outsider, too long has the old ways been suppressed and changed to Ranxiagrir's liking and too long have we lived under the foreign name Felinius Paradisum!' She paused and the crowd cheered in agreement, although some remained silent. 'Now go my people, no my Kioko, and wreck havoc upon Ranxiagrir's kingdom, how the other cities our ways and bring back the old religion, do not live under the name Felinius Paradisum instead our country shall be known as 'Kauzka (meaning reincarnation, an old Nouyarhi word referring to undead or the afterlife.)!' She stepped inside again, listening to the crowd chanting 'long live Sasaufe, the queen of Kauzka!' over and over as they stormed the city. She smiled 'the rebellion has begun' she whispered under her breath.

Sasaufe smiled as she put the phone down. Ranxiagrir's fate was sealed she knew it. The rebellion, according to here council (the members of council that joined her) had spread far into the mainland as more and more people realised the glory of her cause and joined. She hoped this was true as she had plans for Kauzka. First she would stay in Ranxiagrir's palace in Sanctuarum, which she would rename, then she would reinstate the old Trakhi as the national religion and old Nouyarhi as the national language. Then comes the fun part. She would sweet talk the other leaders of the nations, maybe even visit them for 'diplomatic' reasons then once they all trusted her she would begin asking. Food, cloth, resources, weapons or land. Once they started denying well she has an impressive stash of nukes hidden under the city. Maybe even seducing some of the leaders might allow her a chance to see, and steal the plans for, any secret weapons that they may have. But she frowned, all this hinged on one thing. Ranxiagrir's death.

After a week the rebellion had taken over most of the country. Only a few groups held fast against her cause, still rooting for Ranxiagrir. She called Guluz the councillor in charge of Messes and said 'Guluz would you please organise a meeting at Sanctuarum with all of the councillors? I would like to discuss plans with all of you and give you a brief on the new politics of Kauzka and the future of our diplomatic relations with the other countries'
'Ok Sasaufe I'll get on that now' Guluz replied and hung up. She sat down on her recliner but the picked up the phone again, this time calling Dras Ishay of Procellia 'Dras Ishay you may know me as High Councillor of Kauzka, but you may call me Sasaufe, I am calling to discuss the relationship of our to countries and wondering if we could set up a meeting perhaps' She spoke in what little Procellian that she new although it sounded like she had a bad lisp due to her accent and ineptness at speaking the language. She then waited for the Dras's reply.

Sasaufe after a short discussion with the Dras they agreed to hold a second meeting in Procellia, although at the cost of no weapons or suspicious things being brought into the country. She was quite happy about this, as the meeting would take place 5 days after the phone call, which would give her plenty of time to attend the meeting between her and the other Councillors, and perhaps time to set her wider plan into motion, while also giving her a chance to improve relations with Procellia

Time jump 3 days

Sasaufe was at Sanctuarum, soon to be renamed Shycus, along with the other councilors. 'Ok everyone, some of you may be happy with the occurrence of recent events, some of you may not, but regardless we are here to discuss the future of Kauzka' Sasaufe addressed the other councilors 'I will be moving from Hiask Garden into Sanctuarum, soon to be named Shycus, and Heesish will be the new councilor of Hiask Garden' She said pointing to Heesish 'He is to be treated with as much respect as anyone else here, even though he used to be my translator he has watched me guide Hiask Garden and now it is his turn to guide it as I have done' Sasaufe paused as a secretary walked in.
''High Councillor a letter has arrived from Sartoria' She said handing the letter to Sasaufe. Sasaufe opened it and the secretary walked out.
'Hmm' she said as she read the letter 'It's talking about an international meeting in Sartoria, since the meeting in Procellia ended early a summit is being held at Mekselia' She read from the letter 'Ok this raises further discussion, I propose we send Heesish as I have another meeting in two days at Procellia, and I know what your all thinking that he is being granted to much to soon but he is probably the best Latin speaker here and I want to send someone of reasonable importance to show my respect, any objections?'
Guluz spoke up 'Sasaufe I respect and agree with you appointing Heesish in Hiask Garden and agree that we should send him, but with the fact that tension still remains in the divided populace I fear he might be attacked, so I propose that 10 guards should be sent with him'
Sanus Councillor of Messes objected '10 guards you might as well send a fleet! I agree that he should be protected but I think one Saber Tooth would suffice'
'You want to send a Saber Tooth?' Gin Councillor of Commercia said in surprise 'I mean I know how dangerous they are but I think we should at least have an escort, perhaps five soldiers on the plane while the Saber Tooth goes into the meeting with him'
'Yeah I agree' Heesish spoke up 'I don't want to rile up tempers but the while the threat of terrorists still loom I would like some protection, but what are my goals for negotiation once I get there?'
'Establish a good relationship with as many delegates as you can, become their friend or ally as we are going to need a lot of allies if we want to develop Kauzka further, also if any nations harbor any resentment or hatred towards Selene you should take advantage of that, try and make an alliance with them but keep it quiet and remember that the safety and security of Kauzka comes above all, meeting adjourned' Sasaufe ended the meeting. Heesish was escorted to a jet and left for the meeting.

Sasaufe paced in her room. She had wanted to go to the summit herself and she regretted the sudden timing of it as she needed to prepare for the meeting in Procellia and doubted that the summit would only last for two days. But this was just one of the many things that were bothering her. Ranxiagrir had been dealt with too easily, she felt like there was a plan going on that she didn't know about. She thought that she wasn't ready to run Kauzka and in the back of her mind she had never anticipated that the plan would work so well, she'd half expected it to fail and now here she was, ruler of Kauzka. She had succeeded but now she didn't know what to do. She had so many idea's and plans that she had thought up, but she didn't know where to start. Trade, war, technology, economy, pleasing the masses, pleasing the foreign leaders, making allies, betrayal she didn't know what order she would do these in, what things would take priority over others. She knew war and conquering was not an option at the moment, the situation in Kauzka was still fragile, the population too divided. 'That's what I must do' she thought as she paced faster and faster. 'Please the people, make them feel a sense of connection too me, before I can stabilize my relationship with other countries I need to stabilize my relationship with my own country, but how?' Sasaufe said quietly to herself. She knew she had only promised two things so far, restoring the religion and culture of the people and giving the country pride again. She knew these were two powerful things to offer, which is why the rebellion was so successful, but she also knew that some people didn't care about that. She needed to offer them more. Money, advanced technology, she needed to offer them what other countries had. Stability. She then knew what she had to do. She called up her top scientists, economic theorists and trade managers. 'Hello all of you' She said addressing them all at once 'I have a plan in place and I need you to help me execute it, Reesha (manager of technology) I need you to get your inventors to invent something for other nations, a phone, digital device something never seen before something that we can sell to our people but also to other countries, something that they'd want, Cokir (manager of trade) I need you to export this to all of the countries that we have good relations with, actually no all off the countries that we have trade routes with, and make sure that it is advertised well, and Prenar (famous economic theorist and manager of economics) I need you to revamp our economy turn it into something that can get the most benefit out of trade, perhaps a separate currency for international trade and the like, it's up to you to make our country rich ok?' Sasaufe waited for them and smiled when they agreed 'well then could you guys begin that now because I have a speech to write and it's riding on you' Sasaufe put the phone down and walked over to her desk. She preferred to write a speech herself instead of trusting it to her speech writers, although she usually got their opinion before presenting it. She put some music on and began writing. Her plans were coming together.

Sasaufe had finished writing her speech and was about to present to her people. She stepped out onto her balcony and addressed them, as the news had already spread about the speech and they were gathered in the courtyard of the castle. 'My Kioko' she started 'this is the dawn of a new age. Our economy is changing, we have gathered allies among the nations, I myself will be going to Procellia to attend a meeting tomorrow, but that is besides the point, today I am going to inform you of the changes being made in the coming months and I will tell you some things that will give you more power over Kauzka, more decisions. First of all I would like to inform you that our economy is changing. It is to become more trade centred as new trade routes are to be opened soon with other countries and I want to be able to take full advantage of this. Do not fear, this does not mean more taxes and pressure on you, in fact, as our nation prospers it may mean less. A new currency is to be adopted for trade, this will not affect you either but I felt it was within your rights to know. Another change that will be made is that places of worship for Praanier and Fymmis believers are going to be built and efforts are being made to promote them. Unfortunately anyone that still follows Ranxiagrir's Blasphemy is going to be taxed and we discourage its use. Kauzka is also making efforts to become more technologically advanced, with new inventions being made everyday I aim for technology to be one of our major trade items. Oil and fur will also play a big part as well as you all know that Kauzka has little need for oil and that we have a large fur industry as it is. Some other changes are being made as well regarding names. As you may know the nation is now officially named Kauzka and efforts are being made to change the names off Sanctuarum, Hiask Garden, Commercia and many more to be in Nouyarhi instead of Latin. Some small other changes are going to be made as well but I am creating a new website and newspaper chain to inform you of these. Hopefully as they progress speeches like this will become less and less common so you won't have to listen to me ramble and instead get back you whatever it is you want to do' Sasaufe finished her speech getting a few laughs at the mention of her 'rambling' and generally leaving the audience discussing these new changes. She then went back into the palace and laid out a few outfits to wear at the Procellia meeting.

After the Procellian Meeting Sasaufe felt content of the things she had accomplished at the meeting, with trade already flourishing between the two nations. Sasaufe had already started writing her speech, in which she would introduce and encourage demonism, in hope of getting her people to convert. The Priestess stood with Sasaufe, as the Priest could not talk with her, and would instead be asked questions through her steward. 'I need you to instruct my architects on how the churches will be built in the cities, with a large magnificent one being build in Shycus' she said to the Priestess 'can you do this?' the steward asked the same question to the Priest.
(OOC Procellia can respond this if I am interacting with the Procellians, but no one else)

The priestess, whose name had been surrendered upon promotion, was a tall well built woman. Even garbed in the loose robes of her profession she was obviously a strong woman, her almond eyes and light brown face the poster child of a Procellian mountain woman.

"I shall have to commune with the king of kings before I may speak of his will. Though, I may describe what we traditionally build." She said in a deep voice that seemed to reverberate in the room

'Ok thank you, do you require anything?' Sasaufe asked.

"Only separate quarters for me and my compatriot." Was the simple reply
