章 402: Imperial Edict

The next day, thunderous news have resounded throughout the continent, even reaching the influential people on the other two.

The Throne of the Azure Eagle Empire issued an Imperial Edict, a first one in the span of the last 400 years. It asserted the interests of the Empire in the stability of the region and proclaimed three demands to the four Kingdoms closest to their borders.

The first one was of the immediate ceasefire of the Tuamei-Gutian borders and a subsequent withdrawal of the Tuamei Kingdom troops from the conflict zone.

The second one was the release of the former King of the Fantian Kingdom to the care of the Feng House, citing suspicions of foul play in the Royal House of Fantian and brewing unrest. It was also stated that the Empire will be closely monitoring the proceedings after the change of custody, recognizing the former King's legacy-authority as legitimate claim over the country's rule.
