Late Summer: The Annals of the Third Calamity, Sect. VII92Please respect copyright.PENANA3JHB8eychr
The Third Calamity, the Great War, whatever name man has given this conflict between two superpowers of the East and West was seemingly approaching its end. The three regional powers of central Europen had folded and all that was left were the clusters of nations and armies that remained in the wake of the storm. The frontline had traveled one and a half thousand leagues west, killing, wounding, displacing hundreds of millions of innocent lives who had no part to play in the decisions that their representative councils, ministers, and heads of states had made. The people were not protected by those who swore to uphold their rights yet they were also attacked by those who did not. They were bogged down in the mud of no man’s land as a third party that knew not which way to go, shrouded by a fog that made both fronts believe that they were the enemy, and out of their desperation for survival birthed an ideology that would dismantle the global order that had been in place for the past three hundred and sixty-nine years since names were inked on the Treaty of One-Twenty-Two. There were few then became many who grew attached to the idea of communal prioritarianism, self-governance, and eventual independence but they could not have known that hundreds of millions more lives would be a lost in a campaign seeking to rekindle the fires of unity.92Please respect copyright.PENANASuEBMTVuzM
The only hope that could have restored order and the social construct that was the state was a commoner called Léon Carlstadt. He was a liberal intellect, a conservative radical, who had written his thesis on the successes of his modern country and the future of the world order. His homeland, Dannen, was prosperous and almighty because it was governed by a man who understood the land and its people, the struggles of the lowborn commons, because that was where he came from. He wrote that if a nation was unprepared to rewrite its constitution entirely, then enlist the help of a prime minister who has had a humble upbringing to serve as a messenger between the king and his people. That was the only way that the population could be satisfied but before he could attempt this theory, he was assassinated, the project lacked leadership, war broke out, and his ideal was shelved. What came after could only be described as armageddon or eternal war.92Please respect copyright.PENANAxDNrKohCbB
