WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND….

Nothing stays hidden forever. Especially not during rounds of assassinations, and several world leaders tucked under one roof. As an uneasy civility settles in Lal Qila, those at the helm of power decide to assert their effectiveness. In an effort to re-establish their command of Lal Qila and curry favor with those affronted by the memoriam, the Mughal Empire (in collaboration with Madagascar) revealed the findings of their investigation in the grand hallway of an early morning, before breakfast was even served. The following list was revealed to name these individuals as the most suspicious within the court - and their reasoning why.

Egypt’s bookkeeper, Emine Bulut, is not as she seems. Many suspect that she is, in fact, working with the Perisa to investigate the Turkish royal family and may have other experience in espionage. 

Thailand needs to look within its own ranks. It’s been found that military commander, Kinsey Gladwin, is tied to the English forces.

The loyalties of those under the French flag cannot be trusted, fortune teller Delphine Baudelaire’s loyalties are debatable.

Correspondence highlighting Regent Sultan Rostam’s distrust in his family, suspecting them of contributing to his husband’s death. 

Copies of records of controversies related to the Qajar family previously thought to be all destroyed, found in the Sultana Arshiya of Persia’s belongings along with proof of the destruction of other documents.

Some suspicion is thrown towards Ethiopia - their interview scrolls were mysteriously disposed of, and it would seem their rooms were not searched as deeply by the French military as other courts. When pressed, both sides of the conflict admit that they have nothing on Ethiopia, and perhaps it is this lack of information that has left them under closer scrutiny. 

Not ones to be outdone, the vengeance of Thailand is never far behind. The findings of France’s search within the royal apartments and chambers are brought to light by sundown of that same day. Within the very same grand hallway, they call upon those in residence to reveal the following findings, attempting to further destabilize the Mughal Empire.

Evidence of foul play is brought to light against the Dowager Duchess Tatiana Kanto around the death of her ex-husband.

Letters exchanged between the Emperor Kaito of Japan and King Elias of Germany detailing Japan’s secret financing of Germany to ward off China’s motives.

The relationship between the Empresses and their lover is on thin ice, with Empress Eesha seen scheming with her lover against Empress Rashmi.

Growing unrest among the leadership in Scotland, with Commander Cailean suspected to be working with rebellious forces against the Stuart’s. Perhaps they have something to do with the King’s absence?

The Crown Princess of Germany, Eleanor Hatzfeld, is actively planning to overthrow the King and secure herself and her (unknown) lover on the throne.

Amidst the scandal and gasps, kingdoms with their own burning suspicions take the opportunity to reveal their own discontent. Sound floods the grand hallway as accusations are thrown every which way, but one voice was heard loudest. It is the Prince of China, Angelo Tolentino, who steps up to reveal what treason and theft lies within the Chinese Empire. Financial papers showing funds exiting the Emperor of China’s trust with the Princess Kai-Ming of China’s handwriting reveal Kai-Ming to be a suspect in this fight.

Meanwhile, those under the Ortiz’s employment call out the Bonaparte’s growing formidability and glory. Members of the Bonaparte family have been reunited at Lal Qila, and with so many of its former royals finding success and influence… Many Spanish courtiers speculate that they would be better placed to rule than the Ortiz’s. Screaming, fighting, and a perfect Spring storm befalls Lal Qila.

In the five days that follow amidst the rainstorm, the aftermath of spilled motives and agendas plague Lal Qila. What began as a step forward in the investigation instigated a greater divide between the two sides. Fortunately, saner heads prevail. Unperturbed by the revelations; Baron Hugo Von Galen, Viscount Maximilien Gauthier, and Princess Yifei Qing come together to bring reason and calm to Lal Qila. It is apparent that both sides are too consumed by grief and ego to lead the investigation. 

The three strike a plan; a council, run by kingdoms famed for their neutrality, shall lead the investigation forward. Untouched by the drama of the murders, and having notoriety for each going several years without war or exception strife, and the long-standing alliances with most Kingdoms in attendance. The choice of who to bring in to act as the facilitator is simple. The three peacekeepers appeal to the rulers from all sides, until a wary agreement is made and treaties are signed.

Not long after, the ships of Norway and Brazil land at the Mughal Empire’s coast. A sigh of relief can be heard through the halls as everyone comes around to the idea of peace… but who knows what hurt feelings fester beneath the new information brought to lie. Once a secret is told, it can never be untold, and now some may pay the price for their sins. 

Welcome Norway and Brazil to the Opulent HQ! Below the cut you can find additional information.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ! The investigative council, manned by the royal advisor of Norway and the commanding officer of Brazil, will consist of one muse per mun to be placed on the council. These muses, selected by each mun, will be given choices periodically to vote on that will change the course of future plot drops. More information, including the submission form for the muse you choose to put on the council, will be coming shortly. NOTE - your muse does not have to be a royal to be placed on the council! Ideally, we hope to see a variety of classes, countries, and personality types on this council.

Due to the sensitive nature of many secrets, some muns/muses did not get a feature (or as heavy of one), but these have been noted and will get recognition in the next plot drop!  

The muse count has been lifted to 8 muses per mun, but be mindful that the 1 week wait between muses is still in effect! That means if you apply for your 7th muse, you must wait a minimum of 1 week from acceptance to take on your 8th and final muse. 

Please visit our KINGDOM PAGE to read up on our newest arrivals to the group - Norway and Brazil! 

You do not need to end or adjust threads to stay in line with the timeframe, but you can if you want! Otherwise, all new threads must take place either within the events of the plot drop (including the 5-day rainstorm after the spilling of secrets) or afterwards. If you have any questions on this, don’t hesitate to reach out!

We understand that this may create a LOT of interpersonal drama. Please feel free to reach out to us if you want to let us know any big changes for your character, or to suggest how to implement any ideas for further drama, especially relating to the secrets that were revealed. We want to work with you to make your ideas come true!

{medalion rahimi, 33, cis-woman, she/her} We are so glad to see you safe, CROWN SULTANA ARSHIYA QAJAR of PERSIA! It’s dangerous out in the world these days, but I hear that you are DUTIFUL and STRATEGIC enough to handle it. Just don’t let your RUTHLESSNESS bring you down! Stay on your guard, because with your secret being at risk for exposure, you wouldn’t want everyone to find out YOU HAVE BEEN SPEAKING PRIVATE COMPANIES WITH THE HOPES TO INVADE PERSIA.

Part I

Arshiya has wondered for a long time how different her life would have been if the Ambassador had never entered her life. Almost all her pivotal moments are clouded by his advice.

He was always there, whispering in her ears, convincing her that everything he advised was in the best interest of the dynasty.

The ambassador had been the one to tell her about the numerous records in the royal vault. Records of controversies, rumors of illegitimate children and royal affairs. Hundreds of different things which could destabilise the throne.

She burnt every one. A huge bonfire erasing different pieces of their history.

Her engagement to the Muhgal crown Princess was one of the few things the Ambassador had not been a part of. Negotiations were undertaken by her brother and the Mugal empire.

The Ambassador convinced her to break the marriage alliance, forever damaging relationships with the crown.

It all fell apart at once, the ramifications of the broken engagement, the death of her brother, the apparent betrayal of her brother-in-law. Arshiya found herself at war.

It is likely to be a long road back to her rightful position, but she knew the first step, exiling the ambassador for treason. It was the right thing to do, but it has left her with very few allies.

Part II

With her secrets revealed and her relationship with her brother-in-law more strained than ever, Arshiya fled with her new ally, hiding in China, ready to lick her wounds and plan her next wound.

Before she could come to regret her decision and wonder if her and Rostam could have made amends, Persia invaded Turkey, confirming in Arshiya’s mind that she would not be safe if she returned home.

She has become more and more convinced that a marriage alliance with Angelo is her best path forward (besides, she cannot think of anyone she would enjoy being married to more).

His reign has not been as successful as she would have hoped, however. And whilst a marriage would make her empress of China and Philippines, that his not enough for her.

She wants Persia, wants her birthright, and is desperate to strike. She needs an army, however, and China’s army is not what it used to be. She has been in talks with private companies, trying to find the right army to achieve her and China’s aims.

{hande ercel, thirty, cis woman, she/her} We are so glad to see you safe, SULTANA DILARA ABDUL of TURKEY! It’s dangerous out in the world these days, but I hear that you are FAIR and KIND-HEARTED enough to handle it. Just don’t let your REGRETFULNESS bring you down! Stay on your guard, because with your secret being at risk for exposure, you wouldn’t want everyone to find out YOU ARE SICK AND DYING.

Basics:

Name: Dilara Abdul Title: Sultana of Turkey Age: 30 Birthday: June 30th (cancer) Sexuality: Heterosexual Marital Status: betrothed to Emperor Kaito Toshiko Positive Traits: Fair, just, warm, kind-hearted, selfless Negative Traits: Regretful, tainted, stubborn, intolerant Hobbies: Writing, gossiping, fashion, jewelry Family: Sultan of Turkey (brother), Sultan/Sultana of Turkey (sibling-in-law), Crown Sultan Rostam Abdul (brother), 1 elder siblings, 2 younger siblings, Crown Sultana Arshiya Qajar (sister-in-law).

Physical Attributes:

Height: 5 feet 6" Hair Color: Dark brown Hair Length: Very long Hair texture: Textured and wavy Eye Color: Chocolate brown Markings/Tattoos: None Accent: Turkish Languages Spoken: Turkish, Arabic, English Skin Texture: Soft and gentle

The History (tw; illness, disease, death):

Most would say that the name Dilara, meaning "one who delights in the heart", was an ironic name to give someone so cold and cruel. Growing up in an ambitious and cutthroat dynasty of a family was a lot to live up to, and the pressure of being the perfect Sultana weighed heavily on her shoulders. Often, when she'd fail to meet those impossible standards, she'd act out and galavant around with friends and lovers until the consequences of her actions caught up to her, turning friends into foe and lovers into strangers. All of that changed two years ago when the fatigue set in, the stomach aches, the loss of appetite, the occasional fevers... there was something wrong with Dilara and only so many physicians could identify the problem. All they knew was that these symptoms were slowly killing her. It was working slow, so she would have years left, but it changed the trajectory of her life. Suddenly, her behavior changed. Dilara was an entirely new person, vowing to spend the rest of her days being remembered by her family as one who loved them very fiercely, above all. It was no longer about pleasing her family, but about showing up. The Dilara they've known for the past two years has been supportive, sweet, caring, and is always focused on the warmer side of things. Arriving in India has meant three very important things to her. The first was finding out who killed her brother-in-law and being a steadfast support for her brother, Rostam. The second was solidifying the ongoing engagement plans that her eldest sibling was working on with Japan's rulers, for if she could secure this marriage alliance, then her siblings would be set with funds long after she's gone. The third is finding any other physicians she could. With doctors, healers, and apothecaries coming in from all over the world... surely one of them must have an answer.

TLDR: Dilara was the messiest in the land, to be sure. She was very wishy washy for choosing to meet her family's demands or her own desires. She has a TON of people who hate her for abandoning them (friends, lovers, etc) due to this inner conflict. But when she got sick, she turned all of that around, knowing she wouldn't have much time left. She's here to support Rostam, hopefully solidify things with Kaito so that (if she does end up dying sooner rather than later) her siblings are secured, and find a doctor/healer/apothecary who might be able to help her.

SIMILAR CHARACTERS: Persephone (Greek Mythology), Miriam (The Prince of Egypt), Odette (The Swan Princess), Princess Yue (Avatar: The Last Airbender), Belle (Beauty and the Beast), Beth (Little Women)

WC'S

Ex-friends/ex-lovers. Dilara did a lot of galavanting around the world, supposedly running away from her responsibilities and avoiding the pressure from her family. They'd be friends for a bit of time before she'd disappear without saying goodbye, for the most part. Sometimes she would have to confront it and just cut them off i the harshest way possible.

New friends. Dilara is starting anew. Though her reputation certainly proceeds her, she's spent the last two years turning over that new leaf. She'll certainly have to work hard to get anyone to trust her these days.

Princess Malekeh-Afagh Khanoum Bahmani-Qajar

[nityarawal]

No I'm just a half princess and my family has been terrorised for 50+ years in USA.):

You think we have it so good. We're all sleeping on floor waiting for reperations. They terrorise royal families here. No reason at all. We're From Qajars. No recent regime. I miss my mom. They estranged our family in war. I miss my kids. Be grateful if you get to eat with your family. It's the greatest blessing.

[succiducus]

"ah," rostam whispers, growing sheepish in the emperor's presence for his wrong assumption, an apology in his eyes but it's mirror doesn't reach his lips. the regent's gaze finds the distance instead. "then allow me to speak in truth rather than pleasantries - while i do not wish to believe my siblings have all transpired against my husband's family, you must understand that at one time or another, turkey and persia were not allies. the qajars were, at the time of their first reign, a tribe of oghuz turks, not persians. as you understand through time, this changed," the regent explains. "now, the royal bloodline is of persian nature. i worry that my brother, in a move to expand turkish occupation, murdered my husband knowing that i would take the throne to keep my sister-in-law safe therefore returning the throne to us." "if you think about it, the timing makes sense, doesn't it? the death of your parents made you emperor, it made the decision to marry a turkish princess, your's - it gave turkey another foreign crown, if you agreed. germany surely owed my brother; northern ethiopia was once under ottoman rule; although i have no proof yet, your majesty, these claims are not empty. they are far from personal, they are logical. we were raised to be heroes, to seek power, and so we did - every country who was hit save for thailand has turkey in common. and as for thailand, well, i hope that my brother had nothing to do with that...for the sake of his soul." the older man sighs softly, trying to rid himself of lingering anger. "i understand and i support your hesitance. if this is as new as you imply that it is, might i suggest...postponing your decision until we are sure that my sister is not involved? i would hate for japan to get caught in the middle when i hold them accountable."

dark  brown  eyes  observed  the  regent.  brow furrowed slightly - as much as he wished to believe the man spoke true about his care, words alone couldn't be taken as truth.   ❝ it's not official. talks were being held, but my father hadn't formally agreed to the match before he passed. ❞   kaito's hopes of getting to know dilara before making his decision now wounded by her own brother sprinkling doubt over previously slow growing flowers.   ❝ how can you be certain your suspicions, which as you say lack proof, are entirely correct? if your brother is involved, his plans might go deeper and involve those you aren't looking at. ❞   he sighed.   ❝ i have watched my father fight to maintain japan's independence in one alliance. surely you understand my caution about trading that for an identical situation. ❞
