NUMEROUS ARRESTS MADE
An a coordinated raid conducted by police-officers, officers of the Royal Nordmark Navy Special Unit, and officers of the Royal Nordmark Navy Foreign Office, more than 100 persons were arrested yesterday. The identities of the persons arrested have not yet been made known, nor the reason for their arrest, but it is believed they have been arrested in connection with the war and the murder of our beloved King and Queen. Unconfirmed sources close to the investigation indicate that some of the persons arrested may have been close to the Royal Family, and that several are foreign nationals. An official statement on the arrests is expected within few days.

ROYAL FUNERAL POSTPONED
In an official statement by the hand of the Prince Regent, it was announced that the funeral of Their late Majesties King Gustav V and Queen Victoria is to be postponed exactly one week, to Monday July 25th. No reason has been given.

EVIDENCE TO BE ORGANISED AND PRESENTED BY JULY 10th
The Ministries of Justice, of Foreign Affairs, and of Defense have jointly announced that it is their intention that evidence concerning the recent incidents shall be presented to all ambassadors and ministers with powers plenipotentiary in Stockholm on Wednesday, July 10th, adn thereafter in a formal assembly of the member-nations of the League of Nations as soon as practical, thereafter, pending the location of assembly, and travel-time.

EXTRA: HEAVILY ESCORTED VESSEL SAILS FOR STOCKHOLM
The passenger-vessel SS Kronprinds Kristian, of DFDS, has according to very recent reports, left Copenhagen for Karlskrona Naval Station late yesterday night, on an extraordinary charter for the Danish government. The vessel reportedly left under escort of two armourclads and four torpedoboats of the Royal Danish Navy.

THIS JUST IN:
The government fo the Republic of Argentina has withdrawn its Minister with powers plenipotentiary to Copenhagen, and has closed, with immediate effect, the Argentine Legation in Copenhagen, and has formally withdrawn all consulary honours held by Danish citizens for the Republic of Argentina. The staff of teh Argentine Legation will return to Argentina via the Germany and the United Kingdom of the Netherlands. No reason for these actions has been stated. There has been no report yet from Villa nuevo concerning the status of the Danish Legation there.

Good to know - no doubt the Raj will appreciate the update when it reaches him.

Speaking out of character, the Raj and Rana will use the additional week to add in brief (~ 1 day) state visits to Greece, Italy, Austria, and Germany on the way north.
The two Indian cruisers will sail on to Stockholm - assuming Nordmark is allowing foreign military traffic into its waters - and will pick up the royal couple following the funeral, whereupon they will head home. A stop will be made in Iberia, and a stop in France is possible.

If any of these players wishes to conduct any business or generate news during these meetings, let me know via private message. Otherwise I'll just assume it's an exchange of pleasantries and talk about the current crisis, and won't bother with formal news reports.

What no stop at Atlantis? His majesty King Carolus Iphicles and his wife queen Eurus would be more than happy to welcome them to Atlantis. Despite not partaking in politics and affairs of state the Atlantian Monarchy never the less would like to invite the Raj and Rana to pay a visit once the Funeral for the Nordish Monarchy has taken place.

A stop at Atlantis is really qiuite a detour, though - the shortest route to India from Europe is via Suez, and Atlantis is not on that route.

...everyone likes to see the Raj an Rana!!
