Turn played and sent.

[GeoModder]

Turn is mostly played, but I need feedback for strategic reasons before I can finish it.

[GeoModder]

Okay, the year 2111 is forwarded.

Unofficially contact between the Hive and the Kingdom is reported, but of it's contents is nothing revealed yet.

From the Western Front no news, except it was pretty quiet.

[Rubin]

Still no clear signs of Deirdre's whereabouts.

Yang has decided to detroy the University... The strive for peace has had another setback.

[GeoModder]

Why so curious about the Lady's location?

Yang has what?!
I tell you, Lal's initial madness has sprung over to him.

[Sankis]

Turn to the angels.

the Royal Palace, New Atlantis - MY 2212.2803

Elevea pace nervously around in front of the viewscreen.
This better works, she muttered to no-one in particular.
Why on Planet doesn't he just see the rightness of this?
But no, that... stubborn piece of...
Elevea kept herself in check just in time and clicked her mouth
shut. No need to let 'unappropriate' rumours spread beyond the
Palace gates, certainly not when planetary issues were involved.
She sighted, turned towards one of the other occupants of
the room and said:
Well, bring my profound thanks to your head of state for
his support, and tell him we will pay back every single joule
as soon as possible. I will contact him myself when this is over.
Yes, my lady, I will. the diplomat responded.
The diplomat turned and left the room.

Elevea turned back to the viewscreen, checked again the graphics
on it and started muttering again.
Now we'll just have to wait 'till the Provoost deems a response
necessary. I really hope he's not too upset about me doing this...
She sighted once more, and added: But it really is necessary,
considering the continuous violent situation on Planet!

Military HQ announces the capture of two more Hive bases,
and thinks Chairman Yang is about to surrender to the combined
forces of the Data Angels and the Kingdom.
The back of the Hive seems finally broken now.

2213 to the Pirates.

While the Atlantean government may deserve the majority of votes and claim Planetary Governorship, recent actions are still being investigated.

The public emergence of Lady Deirdre confirms some of the University speculations.

Doctor Rubin requests the Atlantean explanation before additional measures are initiated.

[GeoModder]

The Atlantean Government wishes to know the exact worries of Planetary Governor Rubin, so responses can be made accordingly.

Are her present whereabouts of concern?
Does her hostile stance towards the faction(s) which tried to obliterate her worries Dr. Rubin?

Department of Justice, Neptune Bottom - MY 2213.2803

Today, the Department of Justice announced the conviction of
Sabin Runkis on the charge of high treason against the Kingdom
according the Act of the Realm during Wartime.

According to the trials' report, Mrs. Runkis ordered accomplishes
within the Atlantean intelligence department to intrude on
Nautilus territorial waters, enter a high-security Nautilus
prison compound and release the prisoners present there.
Also, theft of high-grade military material, a former unit and
colonizing material was one of the charges.
The final charge was that a batch of clones, stocked for
destruction for reasons of random genetic malfunctions,
was handed over to the released prisoners and transported
out of the Kingdom.

The penalty of conviction on these charges is execution by drowning.

Next to this, the Pacifist League is acclaimed an Enemy of
the Realm, and it's members are open to arrest and trial as well.

The executive core of this conspiracy, the ex-intelligence
members infiltrating one of the Nautilus bases and handing over
the Kingdoms' possessions, are mainly reported to be on the run.

Some of them have been captured, and interrogated.

The main defense the caught offenders brought forward was
the personal loss of their colleagues due to Nautilus diplomatic
meddling in the war between the Kingdom and the Human Hive
some years ago and, in case of Mrs. Runkis, humanitarian reasons.

Turn to the Angels.

Lady Deidre has appeared on Nautilus sensors. Armed forces mobilize against her once more.

[GeoModder]

Why am I not surprised...
