Dear Empress T-Wat

Our Women are free in this land of ours. They are Priestess, Scientists, Workers as are men. They have Rights. We are equal in our lands. Accept this gift of goodwill and let us keep the last agreement.
 
Emperor Annunaki had woken up from his dream.

"Where is the triumph? Where are all of the Sumerians? Where are they? Where are they? Where?"

"There are only a few. They took most of Ur into enslavement. Only the 147 citizens that hid died. Larsa has been ravaged, and so has Ur. You're lucky you discovered their dirty tactics or 3/4ths of Sumeria would be in Arabian lands. The city hit hardest, however, is Lagash. Lagash was an incredible city, the third-largest in the entire empire. Now, Lagash's population: 0. Most of the buildings have been destroyed. Lagash, my friend, is going to take a long time to rebuild."

"WHAT? THEY DESTROYED IT?"

"Sir. The Arab Sultan has raped your daughter. I don't know where she is. But whereever she is, she must be freed."

"They accept your peace."

"What peace? They want peace? After they RAPED MY DAUGHTER AND COMMITED GENOCIDE AGAINST MY PEOPLE! NEVER! NO PEACE! I WILL *secret plans, don't even think of asking*!!!! *spits liquor onto ground*

With the culmination of his beloved daughter being raped, the murder of his people, and the burning of his cities, Emperor Annunaki had gone completely insane.

"Why do you want to kill the people of my origin," asked Sharif, the Arab commander loyal to Sumer and the only survivor of the Battle of Rafha, where the Sumerian Vultures were destroyed.

He explained the situation. Sharif was shocked and agreed with Annunaki. What did he suggest to defeat the Arabs?

"Training. Train the armies better for all-terrain."

After, all Vultures were trained for desert combat. The desert was vast and the one weakness in the Vultures. The Vultures would be trained efficiently as usual.

After this, a group of Elamites came. "Hello. We want to rebuild. Your library must be completed."

The Elamites were experienced builders and very educated. In fact, they are the reason that Sumer came into the Bronze Age in the first place. They offered to write scrolls and rebuild. The Sumerian teachers killed were replaced by Elamites. The Elamites were rebuilding Sumeria and focusing on the Library of Annunaki in Nineveh. The mix of Sumerian and Elamite culture had just begun.

Serious Foreshadowing
General Lahrensa looked at the map. The dotted lines showed the naval attacks while solid lines indicated invasions by land. The names of the few countries Harappa knew were put on the map, along with up to date borders. Lahrensa had even been given a little background information on each country by asking foreign traders and workers. Everything was in order, and that’s just how Lahrensa liked it. As he continued to study the map, he would occasionally write something down on a piece of paper and then have a messenger send it out to the troops.

“Always the busy man, aren’t you Lahrensa?” a shadowy figure said.

“And always dwelling in the shadows are you councilors. You’re lucky I have a higher duty, or I’d have you snakes locked up and take power myself,” Lahrensa replied with a snarl.

“Oh come now Lahrensa. Surely you don’t mean that.”

“Every word.”

“Now you’re just hurting my feelings,” then the figure chuckled a little and then continued. “Even if you weren’t on this most just crusade, you’d still be no match for even one of the councilors. We have eyes everywhere. Ears too. Not noses though. Some smells are better left alone.”

Then there was an awkward silence as General Lahrensa tried to comprehend what this man was saying. Eventually he just sighed and ignored him, continuing with his planning.

“Just remember Lahrensa my friend: Fall is starting. And when fall starts Sumer is in decline,” then with a cackle the figure dissipated into the shadows.

Lahrensa just shook his head at the terrible pun. It wasn’t even witty. But Lahrensa continued his work. No matter how boring or long the work was, he was going to ensure everything went off without a hitch.

………….

The waves crashed against the beach as gulls flew away from the men hurrying along the soft sand. Holding hammers and lumber, they were obviously tired. Never had they been told to work this hard in all of their lives. Even now they could hear Admiral Kanash shouting orders to someone in the distance.

“Don’t work your men too hard Kanash. The goal is to kill the enemy, not our workers.” A cloaked figure said as he seemingly appeared out of nowhere.

“Don’t order me around councilor. I’m the law here,” Kanash yelled. “And I say: FIFTY DAYS OF HARD LABOUR FOR THE LAST MAN TO FINISH WHAT HE’S WORKING ON!”

“Ahem,” The figure cleared its throat. “Fifty beautiful women guaranteed to each of the first 100 of you to finish your work!” [1]

At those words the men picked up the pace considerably.

“See Kanash? Anything you can do I can do better. I can do anything better than you!” The shadow mocked.

“Get lost councilor! If all you came to do was interrupt my men’s work, I’m going to kill you where you stand.”

As the Admiral turned around to see if his opponent had any response he realized he wasn’t talking to anyone. There weren’t even footprints on the ground. However, his men still worked, hoping to get their reward. Sadly for them, Kanash when right back to threatening whippings and beatings at the slightest mistakes.

[1] There were only 99 men. ;)

Last Changes of King Conkwi

King Conkwi, like the other rulers on this planet, ruled for many years. During his rule he was energetic and friendly. When T-wat far to the south broke their protection pact his men ordered him to send their army to defend "Siam Proper" but he said: "The Citizens support the best government. If the new government is hated than they themselves might be deposed, replaced mayhaps by children." To the laughs of his court. However, he tried to prevent the same happening here. To start, he slowly grew the powers of women even more. As they already can do almost all jobs, now they are equal to men in all but body, mind and spirit: Women are more free in mind. Only in three places where they are restricted: the Shock troops of his army against barbarian raids: "Seeing other women raped by their comrades?": and his Consort "I already have a Harem of ten whom I all love and cherish. Do I need more cups for my now invisable lust?". But all else the kinds of humans shared their jobs, women are usualy favored in some jobs and unfavored in others: Favored in weaving and philosphy but unfavored in dung digging for obvious reasons. With this change it is hoped that Capi-Latsu will survive the test of time.


Offspring of King Conkwi
(please count as 1 story! Can count as two if you want) Later

King Conkwi has 56 OffSpring. 7 Sons and 4 Daughters from the Queen. 5 Sons and 8 Daughters from the head pf the Harem and the rest of the Harem. King Jol'hui (with 3 offspring)becomes king at the age 60 while Prince Goldri at 47(with 5) is second in line. Other major offspring of note are Daughters Huligan and Guyani; sent to Han and T-wat repectivly for education and as ambassadors. The others are scattered with titles, marriges to minor/major tribes and scientists, speakers, writers, builders mathsmen and leaders. All felt forfilled in their destiny. King Conkwi is the most prolific king for 700 years. And as he died he reminded them one by one: if you all stand together you are strong, and if all all you work for the good of Capi'Latsu we are all strong together. If one of us losens our bond, we will be defeated one by one. Remeber to work for the greater good!
 
General Churchille enjoyed his glass of wine. This was a great day for Louisiana. there were Louisiana victories everywhere.

After taking the Islands to the south, he renamed them, " Louisiana Islands" and threatened to behead anyone who called them differently

Louisiana also pushed into the region the king calls Mexico because he is too lazy to look up the real name of it.

And another Great Triumph for the King was the completion of the West French Quarter, a long awaited extension to the already amazing French Quarter. There are even rumors going around that the king will start the East French Quarter.



and in other news today, the king has banned all soup from Louisiana, especially soup which bears the name Camp'ell
 
What? Me? Forget Upkeep? Never!:mad::blush::lol:

The legend of Magical Trevor


As I'm sure you all know, Magical Trevor is a figure from the 1st Yahkmanian War. The story tells of a strange mystic who traveled with the armies into battle providing magical assistance. But what exactly did he do? Was he really Magic? Where did he come from? Where did he go? Is he even real? We cannot answer many of these questions, but from Ancient Yahkman writings we can be certain that Magical Trevor is very real.

Magical Trevor traveled with the 3rd army, also known as the spearpoint position. These men were the ones who traveled deep into enemy territiory cutting off supply lines and allowing the armies behind them to wreak havoc among the Aztexans. But once they went to far and got their own supply lines cut off.

For days the spearpoint was assialed by enemy forces. The made camp on a large rocky hill and swept away all the attacks. But even with "liberated" supplies from the countryside, supplies began to run low. The men were starving and should they fall it would be a disaster. The knowledge that the spearpoint had fallen would reduce the other armies effect, and destroy the Yahkman bloodlust too.

But this is where Magical Trevor stepped in. Like many mystics he was a more peaceful fellow than your normal Yahkman, but he did not intervene in a warlike way. Magical Trevor summoned food from the land of the spirits which greatly aided the soliders.

First he summoned a cow a normal cow it seemed, but supposdly Magical Trevor hit the cow with a magical green light. With a poof of smoke the cow dissapered. The soldiers laughted and joked, already boosting morale. But soon, Magical Trevor pulled out a cowhide wip, and with a little flip, the cow was back!

With much applause, Magical Trevor went into deep consentration and communed with the cow. Meanwhile another attack was made, and with high hearts the battle commenced. The attacking force was absolutly destroyed. But after the attack, Magical Trevor gave a quick chant and a mystical portal opened into a large room.

In this room lay heaps and heaps of beans, one of the exotic foods the soldery encountered in Aztexia. Magical Trevor, supposedly walked into the room, and motioned for the soldiers to join him. Soon, everyone was feasting. After stomachs were full, they began transporting the beans outside. When the portal closed their was a months worth of beans laying on the ground outside.

With the new supplies the spearpoint held. A week later, a battered spearpoint was rescued by the 5th army. A great cheer went up, and a feast was held in Magical Trevor's magical name. But after the feast, Magical Trevor dissapered. Where he went, nobody knows. But all the Yahkmans (paticularly those that survived Spearpoint Hill) agree on one thing. Magical Trevor was very real, and very magical.
