Dark Empire Writ of Notice-War Declaration ~NC~

Dark Empire Directions

Dark Empire has been part of the STEEL and ~NC~ conflict since being contacted on 5 Sept 2012, when contacted to assist in the diplomatic reinforcement of several STEEL cities.  Dark Empire forces have been in use since this time, and have experienced both gains and losses.

Being contacted by STEEL, a trade partner, and having been scouted on several occasions by loyalists of the Night Crusaders, it is no surprise to either party that Dark Empire has been involved.  Since this time, several members of Dark Empire have fallen victim to Diplomatic attacks.  This seems coincidental, however we do not believe in coincidences that after having reinforcements scouted by an unknown (~NC~ had not declared it was their work yet), that we were also Diplomatically attacked several times.  The vectors of the attacks, while not clearly and concisely identified, were approx. 13 degrees from the Alliance Capital, and 12-13 degrees from the capitals of 3 Dark Empire officers.  Coincidence - we believe not so.

Dark Empire is a process-driven alliance, and one such process is our Fetiales  -Process of Making War.  We have clearly identified our Targets, Prohibitions, as well as who in Dark Empire will perform the tasks.  We have communicated our intentions to our partners, and clearly communicated to Dark Empire's membership.

It would be fitting that, given the situation as it has stood, this being the final step - to clearly communicate to the opposition that of our intentions in this matter.
