  • Lollipopsweets2 Tyrule Plot

    I think you've got a great start but it's not quite Yeoman-ready. Big letter signs like you have in your plot aren't allowed in the main world. We also try to have a minimum of realism and/or structural integrity in main world builds, so I'd advise adding a floor to your building and landscaping and pathways to the yard. But you've got 4 walls and roof! You're off the a great start. Thanks for letting me check it out, I like the colors.

    I visited and I nearly froze to death. I tried to buy a coat and the store owner spit at me and said "we don't serve orangies". Such a hateful place.

  • 3 Oranjestad Revolution: Chaos Reigns as The Org Seizes Control, Lord Nebbers Flees

    Oranjestad, Shire - What began as protests for change has now evolved into a full-fledged revolution, with the rebel group known as the Orange Revolutionary Group, or The Org, making significant strides in seizing control of the city. The past ten days have witnessed a dramatic shift in power dynamics, with key government buildings falling into the hands of the revolutionaries. However, with the situation descending into brutality and chaos, concerns for civilian safety and human rights persist.

    The Org Storms Government Strongholds

    In a daring series of assaults, The Org has successfully stormed and taken control of the Oranje Federal Building, the Ministry of Justice, and City Hall. These strategic victories have weakened the government's grip on the city, with the traditional centers of power now under rebel control. The Org's leadership remains enigmatic, and their demands for change and justice have yet to be formally communicated.

    Lord Nebbers Flees, Whereabouts Unknown

    Amidst the upheaval, Lord Nebbers, the ruler of Oranjestad, has fled the city, leaving his whereabouts unknown. His departure marks a significant blow to the remnants of the government, as leadership is thrown into disarray. Speculation abounds as to whether Lord Nebbers will attempt to regroup and retake power or seek refuge elsewhere.

    Government Holds Ground in Homestead and North End

    Despite The Org's successes in capturing key government buildings, the Oranjestad government persists in the Homestead and North End neighborhoods. These areas have become strongholds of resistance, with loyalist forces determined to maintain control. The conflict has intensified, with fierce battles between rebels and government troops leading to significant civilian casualties and destruction.

    Ferocious Struggle in the Lusus Underground Neighborhood

    The depths of the Lusus underground neighborhood have become a battleground as rebels and government forces fight fiercely for every square foot. The labyrinthine nature of the area has made it challenging for either side to gain a decisive advantage, resulting in prolonged conflict and further civilian displacement.

    Humanitarian Crisis Unfolds

    The revolution has given rise to a humanitarian crisis, with thousands of residents seeking safety and shelter. The violence and uncertainty have forced many to flee their homes, leading to overcrowded makeshift camps and limited access to essential supplies. Aid organizations are struggling to reach those in need amidst the ongoing hostilities.

    International Response and Call for Peace

    The international community has been quick to respond to the escalating crisis in Oranjestad. Nations around the world have called for an immediate ceasefire and urged all parties to engage in dialogue to find a peaceful resolution. Humanitarian aid and support for civilian evacuations are being mobilized to alleviate the plight of those caught in the conflict.

    As the revolution enters its tenth day, Oranjestad finds itself in the grip of chaos, violence, and uncertainty. The future of the city and its people hangs in the balance as The Org and government forces continue their struggle for control. With reports of atrocities and civilian suffering mounting, the need for a swift and peaceful resolution is more urgent than ever. The world watches on, hopeful for a glimmer of hope in this dark chapter of Oranjestad's history.
