KEAGHEN ARMAS ESCAPES!

Fig 1. Keaghen Armas counting the years he was gone.

 

Many moons had passed since the trepid Adunian Statesman had disappeared. Swept beneath the waves while fishing, he had been thought dead. His family and allies in the Imperial Court mourned, while his political opponents cheered as the last Josehpite could no longer stall their ambitions.  With Keaghen's absence, Nationalist ambitions played into reality and the institutions of state eroded. However, to no ones knowledge, the senior politician was alive. Trapped upon an island deserted in the ocean.

 

Over a decade of solitude is difficult on a man. Thankfully, Keaghen was not alone. It seems he was not the only victim of the storm which bowed him to desertion. Only a week after he washed up, another broken craft floated by - and slave ship of Krugmar who's mast had broke was dragged ashore. Alive was a dozen gobos, Uzg, Buzg, Duzg, Chuzg, Fulzg, Nuzg, Muzg, Lunuzg, Shuguzg, Kuzg, Ruzg, and Kyle.

While the gobos were of little skill, Keaghen was a fine administrator, and together they formed a self sufficient colony on the desert island. The Gobos laboured to Keaghen's instructions, and in communal benefit, they all survived for many years. Keaghen has taken the name Kuzg, and was their chief upon a throne of coconuts. It was a prosperous and fair colony, and Keaghen was seen as a fine leader. Roles rotated amongst the Gobos, who controlled the means of production, and everything was free. There was a 99% education rate and Keaghen has abolished capital punishment. Cactus green was illegal, but decriminalized, as to prioritize rehabilitation. The birth rate was at 0.86%. Keaghen only kept 2 of the gobos as personal consorts. The billionaires and millionaires where taxed fairly. There was no inequality.

 

One day, Keaghen was sat upon the Coconut Throne. He beckoned his goblin tribe. One gobo, Kyle, has brought upon him a gift. A bottle of wine.

"Where did ye find this?" Keaghen "Kuzg" had asked.

 

The gobos pointed across the shore. "Dere." said Kyle, the largest Gobo and Keaghen's second. "On da mainlandz."

 

Keaghen gasped! He stood and squinted at the horizon. Very subtly, he could see land.

"The mainland? How far are we from Almaris?" Keaghen shouts!

The island which Keaghen and his gobo tribe lived on was only 1 mile off the coat of the Holy Oren Empire. Keaghen, however, never looked that closely to the west.

Soon, his gobos built a raft. He waved them goodbye as he sailed back to the Empire.

"I'll come back for ye." Keaghen said to his gobos. They cried as they waved their Chief behind, as the trusted he would return for them. Keaghen did not.

It took only 1 hour for Keaghen to float back.

 

He arrived on the shore of Henry's Warf, and walked back towards the Imperial City...

 

Town criers cried across the empire.

 

"KEAGHEN ARMAS ALIVE!!"

“How is that man alive still.” The member of the Yasiyeva Duma asks herself sitting at her desk in her home as she sees the flier from Providence. That woman being the elder Edith Hope.

After learning of Keaghens return, Anastasia O'Rourke considers stranding him back at sea but this time, on an island further away.

Valent sighs from the seven skies, his last Josephite ally had returned, but it was too late. His help and cooperation was needed long ago.
