It was a calm and cool early morning when Captain K.D. Reyes got the order to recall orders from command. He wasn’t surprised by the order at all given how neutral the government had been over the war to the south and the increased patrol of the islands and trade agreements that were negotiated by the King of Caven on behalf of the Empress. Again not surprising since the islands where part of the Kingdom of Caven hundreds of years ago and had maintained a healthy relationship with East Malaysia afterwards. Compared to Gemica… East Gemica took a way different course.

“This is Breaking News coming out of the West Naval Station. I’m Connie King with Action News Channel 3. We just got word that all West Fleet ships except ships designated for patrol were launched in the early morning hours roughly about 1 to 2 in the morning going in the direction of southeast towards the East Gemica Islands which has been disputed by East Malaysia before. It has been rumored over the past several weeks that East Malaysia may stake a claim to those islands for East Malaysian shipping and naval operations to the Caven Sea. We have asked the IOC for clarification but their spokesperson advised an official statement will be coming from DAFA shortly.”

The Sovereign Empire & Associated States of East Malaysia with the East Gemica Islands Government have entered an agreement that the East Gemica Island Government will cease operation and be incorporated into the Associated States. With this agreement East Gemica Islands citizens will receive all East Malaysian rights and protections immediately and East Malaysian Naval ships have been dispatched to the islands due to the closeness of the existing disputed islands of Gemica to the west.
We wish to open a dialogue with The Oan Isles to let them know we come in peace and will not stake a claim to the Gemica Islands.
