Region: The Hole To Hide In

The Atomic Schism wrote:RP: The Siege of Royalberg

Soon after the fall of the City of Stonaville, Dominold forces met the remainder of the Holy Republic's primary Borderland defense force at their capital, the Holy City of Royalberg. Once more with aid from the Basaran troops, the Dominold Republic set siege to Royalberg, quickly taking the suburbs and forcing the enemy into the inner city. However, unlike the previous sieges, the Holy Republic forces refused to surrender so quickly, using artillery to fire on the suburbs and cause extensive damages surrounding area. In response, the Dominold army began pushing further into Royalberg, until the fighting had reached the streets outside the Holy Republic's temporary capital building. Amidst the conflict, citizens of Royalberg, tired of the Holy Republic's policies, rushed out their homes to provide aid and support for the incoming Dominold soldiers.

As the city took to flames, it was reported that High Priestess Svteaer's regent, Ddovtole Sęap suddenly left the emergency bunker, where he was found dead at a shrine dedicated to Svteaer herself, a sacred sword through his heart. With his death, a priest named Schoold Beaerk realized that even if the battle was won by the Holy Republic, the citizens of the Atomic Schism would continue to dissent. After minor dilerberation between the rest of the High Clergy, Beaerk convinced the Holy Republic's senior officers to accept defeat at once.

And so, just as the Dominold army was about to send a mortar shell through the Capital Building, the Holy Republic ordered the raising of the flag of surrender atop the nation's temples and churches, much to the disheartening of those still loyal to the Shangralorian Church.

RP: The End

Celebrations have begun to ring out across the nation as the Dominold Republic has emerged victorious in restoring democracy to the Atomic Schism. President Sózei traveled to the battered city of Royalberg to speak before the nation. There, she thanked the soldiers of Dominold and Basaran for their bravery and resilience and as well pardoned those who served under the Holy Republic. Sózei also asked the nation to "push past religious differences," and realize that "we are all citizens of the Atomic Schism, and thus inseparable."

Unified once more, the Atomic Schism's government has begun preparations for a new era of reconstruction and reconciliation between the provinces, establishing a new Commonwealth between all Schismians of the nation. Already, Chancellor Achouerd has begun introducing his reformation programs to the cities deeply affected by the war, removing religious leaders from political offices, designating areas for new schools, and removing the hallowed ground status from the Northern Schism and Forwest.

The Commonwealth of the Atomic Schism is reborn.

RP: U want?
The Lirana offer the Schismians the high Priestess, believing that the Schismians should be the ones to try her rather than the Lirana. Should the offer be accepted, an aircraft shall be sent to take her to the Schism at once.
