As the designated Chair of the CNN until 31st of March I am informing the membership of the need for a meeting of importance relating to the changing situation within Rokkenjima and intelligence we have to share. The meeting will be open to all those cleared for Classified briefings and shall be hosted by East Moreland Special Military Envoy Duke Richard Kelly, former commander of Red Legion. We would ask for you all to attend at 8am prompt.
May The Gods Watch Over You and Your Nation Know Peace
King David III
It had been a rather unexpected phone call when Richard Kelly had received the phone call from the King. He'd been "retired" just a few months but never a man to be idle he'd busied himself with his new business, Red-e Security Consultancy, it had so far been active in Heyra and also handled a few close protection jobs and a lot of training roles. Now though the King had asked him to return to the fold in a sense and so the former Brigadier had, like a good soldier, packed his gear and headed to Ui Cenneslaig.
He entered the conference room having expected not to be in such a place again but wasted no time in setting himself up, folders of information, various maps and of course his mug which he now filled with tea. He had brought with him a few members of staff. Following King David's call he had made a few of his own and assembled a team to help him in his new position. First there was Dom Evanson, he had been a quartermaster up at Aldcliffe for the past decade. He'd been a Red Legionnaire who had lost a leg in the Alps fighting the Borlanders and rather than being discharged he had, as many injured Red Legionnaires seemed to, found a role in the Legions day to day staff. Now he was Kelly's aide de camp charged with getting him to where he needs to be and keeping his mug topped up. Next there was Cara Fairchild, she had been one of the many Naval liason officers Richard had dealt with in his career and their mutual support of Northfort Royals rugby team had made them friends. She now helped at his consultancy company and would be serving as his liaison officer. Finally Joel May, a youngster who had been kicked out of the Cyber Legion for punching his commanding officer after he had discovered the officer had been too hands on with some of the new female recruits. After he'd finished serving time in Northfort Military Barracks Richard had offered him a job and now he handled all the tasks modern technology required that Richard couldn't be bothered with. The four of them waited for the others to file in and then Richard stood to signal the meeting was beginning.
"Ladies and Gentleman thank you for your attendance. I never expected to back in this kind of saddle at this level but time waits for no man so lets get this show on the road." He casually flung some documents around the table like dealing cards. "That" he flung open his own copy and held up a photo "Is Arisa Mizuno, at one time a member of Rokkenjima's Intelligence community, now dead. She was found to have had dealings with some rather unpleasant characters in Zimalia. Those included suspected links with the Borlanders based there. Now this sounds rather bad that we have a member of the Rokk intel family working with terrorists, but its going to get worse before it gets better. In that folder you'll find evidence connecting her with a certain Mr.Charles Ofdensen, the same snake who just may have pulled off some kind of election win back home. Now it does get better because in 2018 Miss Mizuno was found dead." He picked up another photo "Misako Anno, another Rok agent, more evidence of connections to Ofdensen. We have several more examples I could give but we get the picture." He closed his own folders. "I've been asked to call this meeting because my King wants us to, with immediate effect, drop all intelligence sharing with Rokkenjima. The exception being if you're sat on information that would save civilian lives. We do not want to risk information getting to Ofdensen and through him to the Borlanders or Helus knows who else. As far as East Moreland is concerned Rokkenjima is now a security risk. I believe none of you have any actual diplomatic, economic or security links to Rokkenjima so in that regards we have nothing to concern ourselves about. King David is going to examine the impact on those in the coming days. So in effect our meeting is simple. Are we having a CNN Cut Rok off party?"
