I AM ALL EYES, I AM ALL EARS
Meeting time yet again, and Belial had much to discuss. Not simply promotions and demotions, but more substantial things as well. Alliances. Enemies. The ongoing struggle for power that always existed between megalomaniac clans. In short, politics. "Exiles, please gather for a meeting once again." The leopard called out, bringing himself to the position in the prison where meetings were usually delivered. This time things were cleaner, and the rat population seemed to be on a decline. The plague was spreading more slowly as immunities started building up. "Plague update. Things are slowing down. We might be seeing immunity as the plague reaches more and more people. Stay tuned, stay healthy, and remember to report any new cases." Perhaps this was the eye of the storm. They would have to see what happened this upcoming week.
"Anyways, first of all, a couple of basic announcements. We would like to wish a warm welcome to Adrian, Breakout, Lumineer and Blake. I'm certain they will all prove themselves very helpful to our cause." They had had a number of joiners lately, which was nice. He just hoped they would stick around for a little while and not be off-put by some of their traditions. Time would tell, as it always would. "We're having a mass adoption as well. Go and check that out." That was simple. Belial was glad he didn't have to be wordy about all of these announcements. Though, the next one was more important. "It has been brought to my attention that some of us have been reluctant to permanently disfigure our paws. The branding ritual is now optional. I have a special badge for those who have completed it. Consider it bragging rights in pain-tolerance. Come see me if you've already been branded or would like to."
There were more important announcements a bit later in the meeting, but this seemed like a good time to bring up promotions and demotions. There were a couple he wanted to point out. "First of all, I would like Breakout to step up to Vandal immediately. I am also demoting Yptix down to Vandal. You can earn your position back, though, obviously." That was good. Now it was time for something a little different. "I'm also giving out titles today. Softvelvet will be rewarded as Panderer for their contributions to our clan from the Dark Dynasty." He was happy that Softvelvet seemed to be more loyal to the Exiles than his own clan now, at least in some ways. Belial was glad the Exiles were making a name for themselves in that way.
"Next, thank you to Roman for handling the weekly tasks this week. We need somebody else to aid with them this week, however. Let me know if you would like to help out with that." That was a simple comment. Weekly tasks were something they had been slacking on lately, but he was getting back into the swing of it now.
And, finally, the most important announcement. "I don't know how some of you will react to this, but I know it's necessary, so listen closely. Historically, the Exiles have not needed alliances, but things change. Currently, there are a lot of clans out there who could use our support, and we could use theirs. It is a strategic decision on my part that we will be seeking alliances that will join with our cause in a very strong and connected way. I see no reason for us to be a hermit clan. Stay tuned, because things could get interesting. There are a lot of clans out there that throw their weight around in an authoritarian matter. In case you haven't noticed, we aren't big fans of authority here." That was a mouthful. Hopefully there were't too many questions, because Belial was already tired of this meeting, considering the next step was going to be putting all of this into practice. Good god.
