WRONG EPOCHS - CHAPTER 2: PACKAGES, BELLS
- "Where are we going this time, Councillor?"
Says the Lead Conductor, as they play with their laser pen
- "WE SHALL HEAD TOWARDS THE THREE HUNDRED SEVENTEENTH GRAND CITY OF OKRAMESLANON. THERE, LEAD US TO THEIR HEAD COUNTRY COUNCIL BUILDING."
The 6th Head Country Councillor responds.
It is currently the 8th of November, 3122, and tensions have been rising between Hartnebalkia and Okrameslanon, due to their close proximity as of late.
GRAND FIRE OVER SEVENTY FOUR GREEN PACKAGES the Fourth, the 6th Head Country Councillor of Hartnebalkia is currently headed to the capital of Okrameslanon, in order to negotiate a deal to move the Okrameslanon continent a few units away from Hartnebalkia for a large sum of Fictitious Currency.
GRAND FIRE OVER SEVENTY FOUR GREEN PACKAGES the Fourth arrives at the Head Country Council building in the 317th Grand City of Okrameslanon for their negotiation meeting with the entire head country council, which consists of 27 Councillors, each with their own Lead Conductor, who leads a team of Conductors to pilot luxury, artificial intelligence powered, gilded Flight Platforms, refered to as "halls" by the citizens, who are refered to as "FILTH UNDERLING" by Councillors and Conductors.
GRAND FIRE OVER SEVENTY FOUR GREEN PACKAGES the Fourth is very late to the meeting. 20 hours, 42 minutes and 12 seconds before the meeting was scheduled to begin.
- "WHY HAVE YOU ARRIVED LATE, ENEMY?"
- "EXCUSE MY IDIOCY, COUNCIL, BUT MY LEAD CONDUCTOR HAS BEEN DIFFICULT RECENTLY"
- "IT DOES NOT MATTER. WE MAY NOW BEGIN THE NEGOTIATION MEETING. EIGHTY TWO AMBERSTONE BELLS, COME FORTH."
eighty two amberstone bells, a high ranking filth underling, enters the meeting room and begins the negotiation meeting.
- "thank you for allowing me to begin the negotiation meeting, HARVESTED HANDFRUIT UNDER TWENTY ARRANGED RINGS. now, to begin the negotiation meeting, we will start with an information section.
hartnebalkia and okrameslanon have recently not been on good terms. this was caused by hartnebalkia's continent moving to a less overharvested section of the planet. this section, however, is very close to okrameslanon's continent, causing the citizens of both natio--"
eighty two amberstone bells is cut off by one of the Councillors.
- "YOU MEANT 'FILTH UNDERLING', DID YOU NOT?"
- "sorry councillor, yes i did.
the proximity of hartnebalkia's and okrameslanon's continents is causing the filth underling of both countries to begin starting wars.
the head country council of hartnebalkia proposes a deal, where hartnebalkia will pay a large sum of fc for okrameslanon to move their continent somewhere else.
again, thank you for allowing me to start the negotiation meeting and i apologise for using the wrong term for filth underling."
- "THANK YOU, EIGHTY TWO AMBERSTONE BELLS. YOU MAY NOW LEAVE"
eighty two amberstone bells then leaves for the councillors to continue their meeting. On the way back home, they are stopped by two filth underling.
- "hey, we saw you walk out of that building. are you really working with the ups?"
The other one speaks.
- "don't tell me you do things for those bastards."
eighty two amberstone bells responds.
- "i'm sorry, but i do not know what you are talking about."
- "don't lie to us. we both saw you in that building. what were you doing in there, huh?"
- "i was..."
eighty two amberstone bells stutters.
i- i'm a fixperson. i was commissioned to fix the lights in one of the meeting rooms."
- "sigh, i guess that makes sense"
- "but don't think we're not watching you! if we see you doing something for them that isn't something a fixperson would do, you know what will happen."
- "i know..."
eighty two amberstone bells is then allowed to go home.
At their home, they waste the rest of the hour playing.
- "i have a feeling that this meeting won't go well.
i mean, there's only one hartnebalkian head country councillor there, and 27 okrameslanonian ones.
sigh.
but there really isn't anything i can do.
all i can do is watch.
all i can do is watch..."
They have nothing more to do. eighty two amberstone bells goes to sleep.
