CHAPTER 0: Ragnarök
"“Every moment was a precious thing, having in it the essence of finality.” -Daphne du Maurier (Rebecca)"

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  No!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  No, no, no!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  This wan't supposed to happen!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  Ok, ok...Fico, calm yourself down.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  Maybe this problem will go unnoticed...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  As long as I have it under my control, I can cover it up.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Khedivate of Misr]  Damn it. My population is rebelling again.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Khedivate of Misr]  I need to distract them.

''4th of March, 502. The Khedivate of Misr invades the nearby Federal Union of Mintagrib. Within three days, Mintagrib surrenders. Misr annexes Mintagrib's eastern land, and Mintagrib becomes its satellite state.''

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  For fuck's sake!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  It's spreading way too fast!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  I have to shut my borders. Nobody must know what happened here.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  I also need to silence rumours about this outbreak, and fast.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux]  Let's hope this works.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Moreturbe]  I've had enough. Chicken?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius]  Finally.

''23th of March, 502. Morteurbe cedes its disputed territories to Mortesius.''

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> Oh god no...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> It's crossed the border...

''30th of May, 502. An unknown disease has broken out in parts of Celestiux and the Commonwealth of Asura. The disease appears to be highly contagious, severe and lethal. It has spread across both countries rapidly.''

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Bloody hell!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> 300,000 dead in two months!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> What the hell?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> How the fuck is that even possible?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> What happened, Blitz?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Are you kidding me?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> FICO, PATIENT X JUST ARRIVED FROM CELESTIUX!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> Stop wasting time by blaming me.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Is this a joke?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> No, Blitz, please.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> We have to work together. I'm already working on a cure.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Hurry the hell up!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> I can't bear the screams of my people anymore!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> We will help you two.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> Deku, try and suppress any news about the disease.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> We have to prevent a massive panic here.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> I couldn't agree more.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> ...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Autocracy of Deva] <Jason Erik> Blitz, there are too many refugees!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> I'm...trying my best...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Autocracy of Deva] <Jason Erik> This isn't enough!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Autocracy of Deva] <Jason Erik> What are they even running from?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Autocracy of Deva] <Jason Erik> We haven't received nay news from you for some time now.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Argh...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Help...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> I need help...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Autocracy of Deva] <Jason Erik> ...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> This is bad...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Most of my population is dead or dying...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Where...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Where's the vaccine...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> We need more time!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Argh...I can't keep it a secret any longer...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> I'm sorry...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> Don't do it!

''20th of June, 502. Against the wishes of the other nations working on the cure, Asura releases information to the public, detailing an unknown yet lethal disease. The public enter a mass hysteria, known as The Great Panic.''

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> What the hell, Fico?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Esperia] <H950sm> Over one million dead?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Union of Borysthenium] <Chipper the Crow> We need to do something!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Second Kingdom of Lucretia] <ElectroAaronDYnamix> You're all overreacting. This is just another outbreak in some countries with poor infrastructure.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Lecrementos] <HyperStanners777> I agree with Aaron here.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> Are you all crazy?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> This is one of the most, if not the most serious situation the world has had to deal with! We need a cure, and fast!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> Everyone...I'm sorry...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> I shouldn't have kept it a secret...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> I can't continue any longer...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> Please, for the love of god, don't collapse...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> Here's the unfinished and untested prototype for the vaccine...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> Please forgive me...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Celestiux] <Yoshfico123> Let the world knw that i tried. I tried to help. But I failed.

''1st of July, 502. The Republic of Celestiux collapses.''

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Lecrementos] <HyperStanners777> Wait, did the entirety of Celestiux just collapse...?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> Now do you think that we're overreacting?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Lecrementos] <HyperStanners777> ...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Esperia] <H950sm> What do we do now?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> I think we should split up into two groups: One group tries to control the spread of the disease, and the other one works on the cure using Fico's prototype.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> Sounds good.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> I would like to help too.

''10th of July, 502. The Global Health Security Council (GHSC) and the Global Health Research Foundation (GHRF) are founded.''

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> This is it...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> The pain, the screams, the toils...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> They're finally over.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Frown, I don't want to die... {United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> We'll make sure you won't, just stick with us!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> Good luck, world.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Commonwealth of Asura] <BlitzFire34> The fates of many lie on the shoulders of just a few.

''1st of July, 502. The Commonwealth of Asura collapses.''

{United Federation of MCCW} [Holy State of Farisia] <Gridmerc> Jason, care to explain why one of your stupid citizens brought this evil disease here?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Autocracy of Deva] <Jason Erik> My population is dying...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Autocracy of Deva] <Jason Erik> May Notch save this world, before it is too late...

''1st of July, 502. The Autocracy of Deva collapses.''

{United Federation of MCCW} [Union of Borysthenium] <Chipper the Crow> Frown, this isn't working!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Khedivate of Misr] <Saher1234566> The region around the river delta is completely dead now!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> GOD DAMN IT, WE'RE TRYING OUR BEST, OK?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> Deku, how's the vaccine going?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> Fico's vaccine isn't helping at all.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> What?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Second Kingdom of Lucretia] <ElectroAaronDYnamix> We couldn't make any progress with the prototype Fico gave us.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> It's not easy to make a cure for an omnipotent disease which spreads faster than wildfire!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> This is enough!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> I need to set up quarantine zones.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> Chicken, please don't say...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> Reida, close your borders.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Democratic Republic of Arkonos] <DanielMBurton> Reida, why did you close your borders?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> We're sorry Dan, but we've set up some...priorities.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Democratic Republic of Arkonos] <DanielMBurton> I'm not even infected right now!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> Good luck.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Democratic Republic of Arkonos] <DanielMBurton> You self-centered traitor...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Holy State of Farisia] <Gridmerc> Frown, let my citizens in, please!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> I can't...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> This is just a security measure.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Holy State of Farisia] <Gridmerc> You're isolating your continent!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> Thanks to the collapse of several industrial powerhouses, the world economy has imploded, everything is crumbling down...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> We have to set these procedures down.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Democratic Republic of Arkonos] <DanielMBurton> Wait, you're leaving us to die?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> We failed.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> Deku, you know what to do. The time has come.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> Prepare the Ragnarök Protocol immediately.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> Isn't it too early?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> We can't do it now!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> Frown, this is a sinking boat!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> you really aren't trying!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> The protocol is our only hope to save humanity!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> I don't want to be at fault for ending it!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> We're all guilty, Chicken, and you know that as much as me.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> Frown, I think we should still go ahead nonetheless.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> We won't let innocent civilians die!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> Fine, but you'll only have one shot.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> My friends, you know what to do.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Vanaheim] <Willzombie> The Ragnarök Protocol...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Vanaheim] <Willzombie> Itty, are you ready?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> Please give us more time, we-

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> We simply need more time.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Vanaheim] <Willzombie> Alright, fine. We're going to start preparing ourselves.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Vanaheim] <Willzombie> See you two later.

Willzombie left the game.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> What in the world happened up there?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> That isn't important right now.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> Reida, shoot everything that comes near your borders.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> This is madness!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> They only want help and you expect us to mercilessly slaughter them?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> You have to do it, or this might be one of your last days here.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> ...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> I really hope that I'm doing to right thing here...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> This was our fate, Deku.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> We shouldn't have done this.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> Sometimes, the truth hurts more.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> It's arrived!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> It kills everything, from crops to animals to people...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Second Kingdom of Lucretia] <ElectroAaronDYnamix> It's time to fully initiate the Ragnarök Protocol.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Second Kingdom of Lucretia] <ElectroAaronDYnamix> The obelisk warned us, and now our curiosity killed the cat, in this case the entire world.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Cassandia] <JustJuuno> Aaron, what are you talking about?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> This could be our final hour if we procrastinated the protocol any longer...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> We have to accept it.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> This could've been a new era...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> But this illness and its symptoms are far from horrifying...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> We all should.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Esperia] <H950sm> We shouldn't have played God...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> I think it's time.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> But what about Itty and Bella?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Esperia] <H950sm> ...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> No, please...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> Please believe us, we're almost finished...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> Uhh, should we tell them now?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> We only have enough room for one of you.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> We're sorry.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> But you promised to take both of us!<br ?/> {United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Montuaris] <MasterFrown0704> ...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Esperia] <H950sm> That's just the way it is now.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> I only need the nation with the plan.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Franiux] <DekuDesu!> For God's sake, this is absolutely brutal!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Kingdom of Frostralis] <Prism55Writes> It's not like we didn't know it, Deku.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Polarix] <UltimaTheHawke> What the hell is going on here?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> ...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> Take Bella, she has the plans for the damned thing you need.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> What?!<br ?/> {United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> You have the plans, right?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> ...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> You developed them, am I right?

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> Don't sacrifice yourself for me, please...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> FROWN, TAKE BELLA ALREADY!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> Itty...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Tsardom of Mortesius] <Chicken10> Activate the Ragnarök Protocol.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Tharsis] <Bella1963> ITTY, NO-

{United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> I'm fine with this.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> Be good, Bella. Be better than me.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Cassandia] <JustJuuno> Can anyone tell me what the fuck just happened?!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Marwolaeth] <Prims65> Those cowards just left us to die!

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> This is fine.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> We all tried our best to stop the disease spreading.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Sultanate of Tarazet] <Reidakaninja> We're already dead. there's no need to try and deny it.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Democratic Republic of Arkonos] <DanielMBurton> This is our destiny.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Federation of Sigmar] <Nk-the-epic> It was wonderful to be alive, and even more to know every single one of you...

{United Federation of MCCW} [Republic of Lecrementos] <HyperStanners777> I can only agree.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Union of Borysthenium] <Chipper the Crow> May God have mercy on all of us.

By the 1st of January, 503, every single nation has collapsed, with all their population dead, except for Alcoria.

{United Federation of MCCW} [Confederation Alcoria] <Ittyyy> I'm ready.

''5th of January, 503. The Confederation Alcoria collapses as the disease destroys everything. The disease has, effectively, eradicated humanity.''

Nature put an end to humanity.

For now.

May the six obelisks show the true way.
