“To Captain Gygos Fionnoach, the currently reigning Sky-Lord of the Aeolians,

I am Alexander, President of The Independent Society for the New World Order, known to most as New Beginning. 

Today I am offering to you a chance of a lifetime, and to make it so it shall only be offered once. I have sent a manned space craft to the moon, and retrieved it. Upon the moon I have discovered an energy source, so powerful that with the proper equipment, a rock of it the size of your fist can power an entire nation for a year. I am offering the technology to unlock this new energy source to you, however this will not be freely given.

If you chose to accept my offer, you will be required to put down all arms and come to New Beginning for one week. During this week you and your closest staff will sit down with everyone else who chooses to claim the opportunity thus presented and talk. The talk will be on the topic of the future of the world. 

A duplicate of this letter shall be sent to all of our fellow heads of state, declining will be a grave error on your part. The future is coming, and only those who attend shall be a part of it.
The bearer of this letter has full authority to speak in my name. They have all of the information that you should require.

The meeting will be held in 3 months from the date of this letter.

Alexander DuMont Mantez - President of The Independent Society for the New World Order

Dated April 28, 2014”

Captain Gygos did not wish to come to New Beginning so soon, his clan's flight path had originally veered far off to the north before skimming the southern skies of the world. However, when Wind Runners from Clan Zephyos arrived at his fleet a month previous bearing the sealed letter meant for his eyes only, he made full speed to the islands of the New World Order. Gygos was secretly furious though as his fleet of airships began their decent into the airspace above New Beginning. If this invitation was legitimate, and the future of the world was to be decided here, then it would mean that this would just be the beginning of many series of long and likely logistically frustrating meetings. The other Clans of the Aeolians Aerosocracy would most certainly need to know what would become of these events, if they didn't show up in person themselves to bear witness. He prayed to the Gods that Clan Zephyos had not read the letter themselves and weren't now spreading the news throughout the Fleets. The last thing he needed was to cause a diplomatic incident with several tens of thousands of Aeolians claiming airspace above New Beginning to watch the proceedings. 

Thankfully, that didn't appear to have happened yet, and his fleet were the only ones in sight which appeared to be Aeolian in origin. All the same, he'd likely be going to Svalbard to call a mustering when this was over. The other clans hated being out of the loop on matters as important as this, so the sooner he brought them up to speed the better for everyone else. Many parts of the world already saw his people as the flying transients of the skies, though they wouldn't dare cross arguably the largest airship fleet if the Aeolians were to fully assemble in open war, they could still make his people's lives tougher. Implementing trade sanctions, limiting them to Ghettos of Outskirts of cities in order to keep them away from particular areas during their stays, arresting scores of his people on trumped up charges, etc. His purpose as Sky-Lord was to rule over the Aeolians, rule here meaning keeping the clans in line(not necessarily obeying him without question), and representing the Aeolians' interests on global matters such as this.

In regards to the power source, Gygos didn't really care. Steam power and helium powered the Aeolian fleets far better than the fabled nuclear, and since almost every Aeolian's airship is their home, they had little use of it for the limited ground settlements they kept. No, Gygos was here for the worldly matters this new power source would involve, as it would most certainly effect his people wherever they travelled. 

Gygos walked onto the bow of his ship, [i]The Aesir[/i], and drew his spyglass as his ship descended, the advanced city of New Beginning twinkling below. He shouted orders to his clanspeople, Family, Friends, Slaves, and Freemen alike: 
"Prepare to make landfall! We'll touch down in the water and anchor offshore! Make sure everything is secure and all holes are patched up!" 

He walked back up to the helm, where his brother Fafnir and Freewoman Anais were watching, they were his First Mate and Quartermaster respectively. 

"Didn't expect to see this city again so soon, though it is certainly a place to host a World's Council." Fafnir remarked.

"Aye, hopefully the other clans haven't got wind of it, or we'll have Hel to pay back on Svalbard." Gygos replied.

Anais scanned the horizon for other signs of vessels or transports from other nations. "You think the Land-bound will take us seriously?"

"They shall show us respect for our customs, or we'll make them do so. That has always been our way. Brace for the landing, I need to be alone with my thoughts while I decide how to approach these other leaders." Gygos said with finality before descending below decks, his brother staying at the wheel with Anais.
