Vox Controli Offically Apologizes
Big Furry Monster Travels Great Distance to Personally Finalize the Reconciliation
Friends, Citizens of the World, and the rest of you out there! This is a Vox Public Announcement.
After several millennia, Vox Control is making a public apology for the elimination of Lux Invicta. A formal reconciliation with the remaining members of the Luxian Civilization has been reached.
To honour this great event, Big Furry Monster, previously a senior official in the Lux Invicta administration, traveled a great distance, crossed oceans, and faced countless perils to reach the Voxian capitol, The New Voice, and finalize the reconciliation in person. Big Furry Monster met with Beta, previously the Voice of Foreign Affairs for Vox, and the one who made the fateful public announcement regarding the demise of Lux, so many years ago.
Much water as passed under the bridge since then. The world has moved on. Vox Controli has faced its own dark period of history. But Lux and the events leading to its demise have never been forgotten. A formal apology and official reconciliation with Lux Invicta have been discussed in the Voxian senate for decades. There has always been more that united Vox and Lux than separated them. Our civilizations are based on similar traits; we share a common language; our histories were anything but calm. The time is right for the reconciliation. The stars have aligned. And Big Furry Monster made it happen with his historic trip to Vox.
The Reconciliation is a big deal in Vox. There have been celebrations, with much feasting and drinking of beer and wine. Yet there have also been quiet memorials, with thoughtful moments of remembrance.
During their day-long meeting, Beta and Big Furry Monster discussed at length the events of the past. both reminiscing and sharing perspectives. Then the great moment arrived, and it was done. The two representatives finalized the reconciliation with a heartfelt handshake, allowing the remaining members of both civilizations to finally put the events of the past behind them; to remember the emotion, the treachery, the disappointment, and the guilt, and to let it go.
Vox Controli is now moving to further cement the reconciliation. The city of Seabiscuit, one of the most beautiful and charming cities in Vox, will officially be renamed Lux Invicta by Prime Controller Rhothaerill the First. Representatives of all nations are invited to the ceremonies. Furthermore, the official day of reconciliation, the 8th of July, will be 'Lux Invicta Memorial Day', a statutory holiday of remembrance in Vox.
Prime Controller Rhothaerill presented the Nation's perspective, when he announced: “This is a day for reflection, a day for remembrance, and a day for sombre celebration. Vox Controli apologizes to the survivors of the Lux Invicta civilization.”
Senator Wittlich put the day in a lighter perspective, when with wine glass in hand, he announced: “Party time!!!”
Big Furry Monster, said: “I am glad I traveled to Vox. The Voxians are very friendly hosts. It is too bad Trip could not be here today. He would have enjoyed this. This day has been a long time coming, and I am both honoured and pleased by the official Voxian apology. But you know, I would never have made this voyage, if not for Elske.”
Elske, BFM’s traveling companion, did not say anything. She just smiled knowingly and sipped her wine.
Beta, never one to be lost for words, piped up: “Big Furry Monster and Elske… you honour us by your presence. We are immensely pleased, both personally and nationally, that you have made this historic voyage. The people of Vox will never forget.”
Beta raised his wine glass and proposed a toast.
“LONG LIVE LUX INVICTA!”
(The party continued long into the night...)
The following is a picture of the historic 'reconciliation' handshake between Big Furry Monster on the left, and Beta on the right.
The picture is taken in front of the Pond of Peace, on Beta's estate near the outskirts of The New Voice.
