The peace that formerly reigned in Terra Nova has eroded, now little more than a memory. War ravages the continent. Disputes divide kingdoms; ideals divide families. The quest for power consumes absolutely and indiscriminately. None are immune to its allure.
Who will rise and who will fall? Only time—and ambition—will tell.

Akagi wields a saga enchanted naginata, that when touched allows the wielder to cast bright red orbs that explode on contact. Akagi can cast single orbs or produce up to four orbs in a powerup to cast at once for a bigger explosion.

Akagi would let his Mother think about temporarily taking the position he had to move on, even when the Commander arrived Akagi afforded the man a respective bow. He was pleased with his brother as he handled the situation, "With this out of the way, thank you everyone for being patient. Defense Minsister and Admiral, as of right now all Peacekeepers and any in reserve are full active duty: I want damage assessments and a full report of loss of life Arynnite and Dresmondi alike. I want any surviving Dresmondi brought to Illianar, if that's to full bring them to the capitol, I will see to it they have a place to stay within the cities. I want Peacekeeper presence increased in all three cities and the defense enchantments are to remain in place until further notice. All Peacekeepers are to remain vigilant and ready to rotate shifts every ten hours, they are on standby until further notice," he looked around at the rest of the Cabinet as well as Keion and Calliope, "Everyone first please check in with your families, send a proxy if you need. In two days we will meet at noon, in that time I want a full survey of enchantments, reserves of food, and any other vital information on the state of te entirety of Arynn Frey...I will have much to discuss and we have a great deal to plan, everyone is dismissed."
As Akagi bowed he turned made for Commander Hadrian, bowing again in respect to the man's military stature, "Commander Hadrian Usher? Would you care to join me?" he looked at his Mother, "Shall we meet to speak in an hours time?" he would wait long enough for their answers before making an exit.
Most of what Akagi announced following his mothers abdication had been expected. Loose ends tied quickly together. It was clear that the Prince had been thinking over this for some time, though Bowen couldn't possibly know how long. He might've thought that Nevermere had some role in it, but as the Commander of their military entered, he was clearly unaware of what was happening. Seeing anyone from Nevermere only reminded him of his precious friend, Lady @alinore.
Keion Blackwood's appearance, and subsequent appointment into the Minister of Defense position, had been the only real surprise. Out of respect, Bowen only kept loose leads followed on the royal family themselves and Akagi spent much of his time out and about or in Nevermere. He had no idea that the Prince would trust the Blackwood enough to put him into such a high ranking position, but he couldn't deny that it was a good decision. One that made Bowen's job a little easier, even.
The interim King's orders were given, and Bowen bowed his head as they were dismissed. He nodded a head toward the door to usher the other Ministers, sans Keion, out. Some were lucky enough to keep their positions, the others would be escorted out of the palace by Bowen's men.
Bowen, the rounded tip of his poleaxe tapping against the stone with every step he took, smiled as he left the room.

Hadrian’s face remained stoic throughout Sylas Llewellyn’s explanation, but his heart started to race. His eyes went from Kimora Llewellyn to the once-prince, now-king Akagi Llewellyn. His mind was already ten paces ahead, thinking about all the implications and factors at play. After a few moments of indulgence, he reined them in and focused on the task at hand.
When asked, Hadrian dipped his head in agreement and followed Akagi Llewellyn wherever he’d lead.

Kimora listened to her son's thoughts and plans. Certainly she had her opinions on them. It struck the former queen that all of this seemed to be incredibly well thought out. Either he was truly a master when it came to thinking on the fly or he had been preparing this for quite some time now. The monarch took notes in silence. She would think it all through in more depth later, when she had some time and when emotions had died down somewhat. For the time being, the woman remained quiet, allowing her eldest son to make his speeches and offers. He would have an awful lot of work to do.
"Of course, your majesty. I will help you however I can." Was all that she would reply to temporarily accepting the position that was offered to her. The former queen forced herself to pay attention to what was said. Kimora was a woman to make notes, for better and for worse. None of what was going on was lost on her.
The offer of another meeting to come later on today, would only earn a nod from the elder. "Of course, I'll be there." If there was nothing else to be said, the woman would rise from her seat. "If you will excuse me, I believe there are some preparations that need to be made." Unless anyone moved to stop her, Kimora would move towards the way out, keen to begin preparing for the new era of king Akagi and whatever it might bring.

Sylas watched in studious silence as the various groups of people began to make their way out. It was a new era for Arynn Frey indeed and he was very interested to see how it would all play out. He'd be among the last to leave and would make his way to Kezia to let her know what happened before he would immediately head to Lorendale to inform Queen Iliana of all that had occurred.
Keion listened closely to the orders Akagi issued, feeling some old pieces of himself slowly fall back into place. He had earned his name in a military leadership role, and he already felt more at ease. This position would give him more direction, and more resources.
He bowed to the new King once more. "We will get to work at once, Your Majesty." With a glance at @calliope to suggest she follow him, he would take his leave.
The revelation of a new position was a pleasant surprise and the moment orders were given, mentally she was already making notes about what would be needed right off the cuff. With her second in command having already been given similar orders, it would make things much easier, certainly, instead of scrambling in the aftermath. She hadn't missed the looks from her older brother, recognizing what was being asked.
Once dismissed, she would bow to the new King and follow after her brother @keion.
