The Convergence

Carmella: I will be leaving the Beta Prince behind and taking the Gamma with me. While I am gone my brother's word should be considered my own, I trust him to do good for the kingdom and our people.

Raven: Glad to hear it. Well then, we'll let you go. Thank you for sparing a minute for us.

 Carmella: Of course, Raven.

Raven: And there they go. Truly a testament to our kind. As you are all aware, the changes she has made in her short reign have changed our world for the better. We will never be able to repay her for her hard work. 

Carmella: Good morning, my friends. I hope I can call you all that. 

In my one year reign things have been smooth, so it is unsurprising that an event this big has appeared at this time. I hope that I am able to represent our people appropriately and with the kindness you have shown me and my brother in the time since our parents passed. 

We have to keep in mind the possibilities of dangers ahead and I would encourage all Alphas to keep track of your people more than ever until the Convergence ends. We do not know how long it will last but I trust you all to protect your packs. We will return as soon as possible, and remember; it is my honour to serve you as you serve me. Thank you.

Raven: And there we have it. The summit is today and all of Etrus is buzzing at the concept of new faces, this reporter, for one, is looking forward to covering everything the convergence has to off-

Raven: And there they are! The Alpha Queen, Beta Prince and Gamma have exited the main portion of the palace. Your highness! Your highness! Can you spare WWE a few words before you head off?

Carmella: Good evening people of Etrus, it is my honour, as always, to be able to stand before you on this most auspicious of occasions.

I am here tonight to bring to the attention of the populace a Convergence not seen in the past 500 years; the other realms of supernaturals and humans alike have connected for the first time since The Forgotten Alpha's reign.

As such, all rulers of these realms have been invited to attend a summit to discuss treatises and alliances for the time the convergence is open. 

This will happen next month and from then the gates will be open for visits and travel. If any member of the populace wishes to visit these realms, to find mates or to expand their lives, you will be welcome to so long as you apply for a permit.

Timber: We’re live in 3…2…

Raven: Raven Gibbus here, reporting for Wolf Wide Etrus from the front of the Wind Walker pack palace, home of the royal family who preside over all of werewolf kind.

Things have been quiet after the deaths of the former Alpha Queen Clementine and Eos Vermillion last year and the coronation of their daughter, Alpha Queen Carmella Valarian.

Brio: That was not what I expected... 

But you heard it here, folks! Expect updates on this as it continues, if we're lucky, I'll be trailing our Queen on her trip. But for now, back to the studio for a look at this week's weather!

Nimbus: (under her breath) Well, if you had just let me finish what I was saying … (ahem)

The reason for this is that due to the recent unforeseen demise of my parents, King Strato and Queen Cirrus, as well as my sister, the Heir Apparent Princess Alto, we are in need of making new alliances. 

There is a meeting occurring with the other representatives and I will be attending with a small team. While I'm away, I have organised for my council to look after your needs. With this, we will also be opening our borders and starting up our tourism industry again, though there will be laws and limitations for our visitors. I sincerely hope that you will welcome them with joy in your hearts, as you did with me.

Thank you for tuning in to this special announcement, I wish all of you a wondrous day. Fare well.

Brio: And we're back, with a three, two, one ….

Nimbus: Good morning, citizens of Isselyn. I apologise for the brief interaction that was caught on camera just moments before. As you're all aware, I only recently became Queen and still have many things to learn from my team. Please bear with me during this time.

Now, as our morning show host Brio mentioned earlier, I do have an announcement to share with you all regarding some important events within our realm, as well as outside of it.

Nimbus: (hushed whispering picked up by the mic) Why the hell did I agree to this?

Sugarcube: Your Majesty, you're the only royal remaining, there wasn't much of a choice.

Nimbus: I haven't had the training for this-

Brio: (coughs loudly, before whispering) Queen Nimbus, this is live and your microphone is on.

Nimbus: Shi- (clears throat) What do I do?

Brio: We'll just put the camera back on you and you can make the announcement, if that's okay with you and your team?

Coming to you live from the Farrowshade Castle, it's Mornings with Brio!

Brio: Goooood morning, beloved viewers! 

Today, we have a special event for you, the very first interview with our newly-coronated Queen Nimbus! We've been invited here to share with you all a very special announcement, which our Queen will reveal to you all herself. 

with that being said. let me introduce the faces of these negotiations, the backbone of our world, the rulers of the eyrie. here they come."

let me introduce them 

of course, right in the foreground is cathar, the legend. the only vampire who has ever dealt with the shadowlands, with hell itself, and lived to tell the tale. 

right at their side is parangsae, sister of cathar and second in command. her talent wielding a blade rivalled only by her silver tongue. she'll be the spokesperson, for cathar is a not of many words. 

then, to the left you'll see noctua, our proud head of security. don't stir too much trouble, or you'll get to know him very soon.

the recording flimmers for a few seconds, glitching, before it finally shows a clear picture.

"citizens of other realms, people of the eyrie, this is a moment of history. my name is sparrow passerine and i am honoured to be the one to spread today’s news to the universe. 

today is the first time in a millennium that the birds of prey are willing to step outside our own domain.

QUICKSILVER: Yes, thank you. Ladies and Gentry-men, I apologize for technical difficulties on our side, it appears as though inter-realm signalling is a little harder, to uh, get right.

SILVERITE: ...right.

QUICKSILVER: No! That's a Commercial! Did you send that?

SILVERITE: You TOLD me to put this disk in!

QUICKSILVER: Why didn't you double-check?

SILVERITE: I'm your apprentice, why should I double-check your broadcasts?!

Jamm: Word from your crib is you are planning on meeting with these kingdoms; isn't that taking this gig to the max?

King GF: I'll have to find this Max and speak to them about sharing unofficial details with the media. However, yes, we are in talks to contact the other kingdoms directly and find out what they want, and perhaps make some offers, all depending.

Jamm: Jeepers creepers. Thank you, your grace, for offering that chill pill for all citizens of Primavera. You hear that everyone? King Goldfinger has it all under control.

King GF: That's right. The citizens of Primavera have nothing to be concerned about.

Jamm: It's been an honour to speak with you your grace, peace out!

Jamm: We're sound as a pound! King Goldfinger, we've been bugging out here at GMP--

King GF: --That's terrible, I hope you find some good exterminators.

Jamm: Do us a solid-- Tell us about these freaky deaky kingdoms!

King GF: All will be revealed in good time, Ms Beetz. I am assured Channel-67 will be the first to know.

Jamm: You ain't just a woofin?
