Bonus Chapter: Lements of Leaf Green-Land Leaders
Dear Minister of Finance, Parva,
I write this message not of my own volition or necessity...But as a warning to you and any of the other "Ministers" who find pleasure in groping my husband's gluttonous nether regions. As the Queen of Tykar and Co-Monarch of our towering mountainscapes, I declare that any Doigan envoy or diplomat will be turned away until further investigations into your trade habits are fully conducted.
Her Royal Majesty,
Queen Shika of Tykar
Co-Monarch of the Towering Black Coast.
-------------------
Dictated and read with care by the most esteemed Doigan High clan's 7 leaders.
Hello! I have heard much about your people and lands from many of the different collections among our library's many records, you may have me confused with my mother, Shella Parva.
As the newly elected president of Doiga, it saddens me deeply that a member of our parliament would stoop as low as to fraternize with a component of the royal family of Tykar--And your husband no less!
Attached to the package I have sent below are the video records of my mother's time with the king that prove your accusations to be true, you also will find her swift exile to the harsh sands of our northern border of Buriti.
I hope this letter and evidence finds you well, and the cache of medicinal remedies for your ailing son!
My regards and prayers to Floran that you have a good bounty in the coming weeks,
Love,
President Parva.

NEWS OF REVOLT AND ROYAL RESET!
Spoken by: Plantdriod Arma-D33n
Written by Davus Argular,
Begin transmission,
This morning in the filtered light of the morning dew, a sad day for the continent of Izmar and the burgeoning market and stability of the region's most delicate political faction: Tykar has seen one of the bloodiest battles to the country's date amid the scandal following the King's lurid affair with Doigas disgraced Minister Shella!
You can understand that while the Tribunes of our people have run their own look into how low this woman has stooped to secure funding for her back trade of our sacred technology to bands of raving Tykaran anarchists...The damage has been done to the far less advanced cultures that border our lovely dense jungles in a distinct rise in rebel groups and much of the native civilian life being broken into shattered realities of their nation's woes!
Am I imagining this people!? The pacifist nation of Doiga, selling experimental arms to cavemen?! I have no qualms speaking so freely as a once-Nak-born asylum seeker of the SandHound Merchants, I myself have seen what the hands of those without proper knowledge of Doiga! My body suffers the many scars of the wild sands of the Buriti...
They do not even see animals as creatures that garner respect and care! The jump they had made once the Vascan nobles took over, technologically speaking, only served to begin their own trouble with the many embittered warring tribes that surround the Mauve Palace's most fatty men of wealth. Now instead of fighting hordes of mongrels with steel swords, they must contend with the very real threat that the millions of Native Buritians are not ready to aim with shiny new guns at their red-stained hair.
That was to notify you of what to expect from this civil dispute between the Ex-King of Tykar fighting the Queen VS the now armed insurgents! Tykar is a baffling monolith, even compared to the likes of Buriti Vasca: From our satellite imagery and intelligence reports we have compiled an empirical disparity of technology for you to feast upon before I leave you to ponder my words...POST-NEOLITHIC infrastructure for 99% of the populous approximated to the Pre-Industrial projections of Buriti-Vasca!
HOW CAN WE TRUST THE SPOILED DAUGHTER OF A MONSTER LIKE PARVA AS OUR PRESIDENT?!

Greetings and Good living President Parva,
My son's ailing soul has been healed! You are a truly powerful mage of the highest order, you must visit Tykar after I have quashed the tides of waves that surround me like the glimmering coasts of my disposed husband's new "territory". My footman has informed me that you have dispatched heaps of seed and grain that my people desperately needed...While I am happy to collect your charity it pains me to ask that you send arms and soldiers along with the next shipment for us to beat back the uncivilized mass indecency that many of Tykar have fallen to. We can hold out for the next month but if pushed any longer...I may need to lay waste to all who oppose my rule in order to wash the brains of those who question my divine right to rule!

Please send me aid and push us through the dark ages of my people into a new time of light like the rest of Izmar,
Your new friend, Shika.

ARE WE THE ENEMY?!

WOW, you obviously have heard the news...Unless you are a low IQ member of the lower canopies, Who am I kidding--If you were such moronic company you would likely side with President Parva herself in all her ineptitude! This was what I warned of only 6 months ago, how did I and many of the Tribune see what the "prophecied" genius leader of Doiga easily played into!?
After almost 14 generations--I regurgitate! 350 short years of Doigan peace and prosperity! Eradicated by the almost radical shift into the Tykaran civil war...How? One moment we are helping a broken people and the next--We have fully bent ourselves to the whims of the mad Queen herself!
Here is a startling fact: a 40% increase in civilian casualties, a 482% enlargement in mass situations of rioting, and a 74% DECREASE in literacy rates...Tykar has 3 governments but not one of them seems to be able to understand the simple complexities that our mock governmental system of learning or institutes of wholistic sciences teach the likes of a 9 year old. With a male surplus of almost 10 million males, the situation looks bleak for any rational numbers pertaining to the ever-increasing issue of female rights...With a female president here at home and the Queen herself, how does this even merit our interference with the civil war?!
I shudder to think, this is directly addressed to you, Miss Parva of the corrupt high clan and scammer of the national exams (That's right, I said it!) We the people know you are keeping something from us! We the people want to see your records of grade! I and many others do not believe that our noocracy's sought-after Mind of Floran could be this ignorant, either you have lied about your intelligence and must step down or you are purposefully playing our political world for your gain like your mother!

Battle of Dead Valley Field Report: Officer Delus Parva.

To be written on a scroll and delivered to Queen Shika by way of hawk or footmen.
Doigan soldier Toll: 5,239 dead/ 1,567+ injured. 0% Civilian ratio
Tykar Alpha Toll: 41,409 dead/ 60,000+ injured. 33% Civilian ratio

Anarchists/Tribes of separatists: 400,000+ dead/ 1,00,000+ injured. Unknown Civilian ratio.
I will not mince words...We are not meant to be here, the people hate us, and the valleys bring no protection for our Hoppers which have made it impossible to not experiment with the capital's newest weapon of atrocity...My heart is heavy to bring both of you the news that while it is highly effective at rooting out stubborn mountainous insurgents--The vibrations of the machines do not discriminate in who they bathe in a landslide...The plants must perish. A mutation involving their receptors for receiving the information has changed into high-powered sound whistles that make it impossible for us to gain ground in the fertile valleys where the fighting is most fierce.
I will not be making it home to Hollisco's calming canopies nor will I be able to return to the mud-built masterpiece of the Queens growing palace...The battle has taken me, my mind haunted by the horrors of what our ancestors tried to protect us from--But rest assured my sweet sister Parva and my loving wife Queen Shika, the king will fall to my hand once our next battle has finished....That I swear!

INTELLIGENCE BRIEFING OF THE CURRENT HAPPENINGS
OF IZMAR'S EASTERN NATIONS:
AGENT DAVE ARCHER
[CODENAME: DAVUS ARGULAR]
Security Clearance: 12-CLASSIFIED
*any marked terms may be changed or redacted for ease and safety of operations.
OVERVIEW:
The Doigan forces are dangerously close to finding naval base Bravo. Within only 2 years they have cut through many of our hidden sects, making it difficult to allow the flow of oil and *CATTLE*. The people are willing to keep fighting the Queen, but the King is a growing threat to the unity of our *FREEDOMFIGHTERS*!
I have personally taken the time to plug myself deep into the fields of battle and strife to conclude his time as acting ruler. My work on the Doigan front of journalism has made an excellent cover for the anti-technocratic ramblings that capture the disgruntled second-class while now allowing me the opportunity to be seamlessly embedded in "War Time Journalism".
Key Findings and Assessments:
After many *RELOCATIONS* of the stubborn natives of Tykar's sky-tickling ridge, the field agents and miners have been able to extract the *ARTIFACT*. I don't know what we are gonna do with this *THING*...The more I think about it the less it makes any sense.
Regardless, I will be shipping *ARTIFACT* by naval fleet once we come to "Aid" the Tykaran Civil war after the next election cycle hopefully spits us out another good'ol boy for us to get our hands dirty instead of wasting our agents' time with finding out how cavemen rub sticks together while drowning in oil.
Impact on Military Operations:
Nothing, business as usual until further notice
SEND MORE COOKIES AND ARSENIC
(The natives have successfully been misled into thinking it is a powerful aid to remain virile)
Also, I want cookies...You Rat Bastards, It's been months since anyone has even responded to one of these things.
Recommendations and Implications:
I recommend--the Colonel licks my taint
I ran out of shitty jokes...
Questions and Answers:
RESPOND YOU FUCKERS!!!

PARVA PUBLIC ADDRESS: NO MORE CASTES
Presented LIVE by Telacron Inc
My dearest assembly members of Hollisco, watching High Clan knowledge keepers, and the collective Tribune of all canopies of people, Welcome! It is with a heavy heart that instead of serving you as a silent force for the furtherance of our overflowing institutes of science and nature...I must now personally address you all in a resonating call to action that cannot be ignored!
Castes must end! We must conduct limited trade with the other peoples of Izmar in order to fully understand the depths of truth that bind our world to reality. How many of you have been trained in numerous ways of political savvy, social intelligence, moral standing, and countless spawning branches of science?!
Does this not make you feel strong? Do you not feel happiness when being fully cognisant that you are being led, taught, and affixed to the bountiful connected brain of Floran? In the last 8 years of bitter war and conflict many things have been revealed to me...
We are just as backward as the lowest IQ canopy and more ignorant than any woman or man of Izmar if we cannot share in what we have been blessed with by the ALLGOD! Tykar with all its civil issues was purposefully led astray, my brother and many of the more militant High Clans have been puppeted by the spies and oligarchs of Atlantia: He planned to worm his way to the side of my wonderfully misunderstood ally Queen Shika while usurping my own seat for himself.
Now you can take time to recoil at the audacity of these treacherous members of what is assumed to be the tiers of our society and the greedy hand of the Western evils or you can move forward like I have...I lost my mother to exile when she was exposed for her wrongdoings--I took my brother's life when the sanctioned poison dripped into his still-beating heart.
The High Clans that did not attend this assembly have already been turned to mulch from Hopper mist...Those who have well know that they will find themselves no longer holding any status or place without thorough retesting of their intelligence then a democratic vote of all people of Doiga
Myself included--I love you all, until the elections, this is your devoted president and friend of Tykar...President Parva.
