{Jams on JGREED} (OOC: BTW, im actually serious on Rica's behalf, the Forgotten will get out of everyone's hair once they finally get their crocs either peacefully or through force. (mostly i hope, the former). Yes their scouts are keeping tabs on them, just as lookouts for anything suspicious against them or letting in new followers. The Forgotten can bring any Aquatic tribe to their form of justice, via doing what they usually do, assimilate some of their tribe, grow that population and their stolen tech, and use it against them. Im sure the Shark tribe may have a bone to pick with them. )
{JAMMERS! -TheFirstDecade- ONLY!} Hmm... I was kinda trying to shift into a Second Chima Civil War with the Chima Alliance vs. The Forgotten and their allies (at least at the start, to kick things off), since the people who lead the Ice Hunter tribes aren't active, so if it was the Chima Alliance vs Unichi, it would just be me fighting myself. So maybe we should have the Rays and your Sharks attack now, instead?
{JAMMERS! -Jgread- ONLY!} (But how would baton or any other newcomers react when we're cutting corners and having the aquatic tribes attack a bit early when the great illumination and the Ice Hunter Tribes still mucking about in activity?)

{JAMMERS! -TheFirstDecade- ONLY!} Well at first, the roleplay was structured like the show, but now I think it wouldn't really matter if new antagonists attacked while the Ice Hunters are still around. Plus, just in case anyone new comes and wants to RP as a character with fire chi or ice powers, maybe it would be better if the Great Illumination happened afterwards in the lore, not in the RP itself.

Rica: "What? It's not like we're currently undergoing an operation in the croc swamp to get Crocodillian Followers of the Forgotten Trihex out of their joint-opressed homelands by the lions and wolves and safely into ours!" -Well, aint this just awkward right now...? Either she has an odd sense of telepathy or is just saying the right thing at the right time? But the raven queen suddenly gotten up from her seat and began to leave the room, before stopping and turning to Bliston, Erdrik, and
"...And if you all don't mind, once we're done with this, we'll go back to our lands and promise not to do anything else 'Illegal', you old coots! We just want to be left alone and settle down finally, we can deal with these mantas on our own terms, and if possible, assimilate them. If anything, we do a better job uniting many from different tribes under one banner, y'all probably won't get that goal in a hundred more years or so! I've had enough of this dumb meeting... see ya later." -she'd gave a rather nefarious cheeky smirk at that last remark before she huffed and left the meeting chambers to go help in evacuating those forgotten crocs.-
-There was visible disgust, and worry, in the Vulture-Pheonix Queen's face as she watched the raven girl leave with such a sour display.-
Fiona/Viona: "M-my word! How uncouth is she?! Her kind has two keys to the great illumination, and i-i c-can't let her confused and convoluted kin keep them for themselves, i-if we don't reason with her superiors, all of Chima could be frozen over! O-or worse yet, they somehow reverse-engineer the power used in the Fire Wings and just create many cheap knockoffs using whatever technology they have, which could corrupt all power for the harnesses, rendering them all useless!! They could be some over-powered war machine if we'd let these Forgotten get away with their "neutrality" shenanigans! They're like a CULT!!! They ALWAYS have some way of stealing other innocent minds and, as she put it bluntly, assimilating them! Just THINK what their power would be if they had those dreaded aquatic tribes as part of their paramilitaries?!" -she said in a rather panicked tone, squawking after she said that-
(New post):
Bliston says under his breath: "Hm, I'm younger than you, Rica, but whatever..."
Lycan: "Your sentiments are mine exactly, Empress. The Forgotten have gotten away with committing crimes for far too long, and are becoming a danger to Chima. Plus, even if they claim to only live in Southernfell, their scouts are everywhere, and seem to be surrounding us at all times."
"Erdrik": "I... I suppose I can't convince you to reconsider at this point. However, the Chima Alliance, the Bats, the Empire of Balance, the Eagles, the Fire Tribes, the Mammoths, and Unichi are on good terms, yes? Perhaps even if the Forgotten and other Ice Hunters refuse to ally with us against the Empire, that'll be enough..."
Lycan: "I still haven't agreed to ally with the Eagles, 'Erdrik'. As I said, you seem to want to attack the rays out of a place of anger. You mustn't let emotion cloud your judgment. It would be better to let the rays find us, if even they do, and negotiate with them immediately. The late Balthazar did give us a second chance at a first impression, didn't he?"
"Erdrik" stands up from his chair at the round table.
"Erdrik": "You old fool. It's justice that I'm after! Your negotiating will do absolutely nothing, and then you'll see how ruthless the rays are—"
Sir Leon suddenly bursts through the door.
Lycor: "Hm? What is it, Dad?"
Leon: "Lycan, I've just received word that a heavily armed force of the Forgotten are trespassing in the Croc Swamp, and haven't backed down despite warnings from those who now own the land."
Lycan (stands up): "I see. So Rica wasn't talking about that in future tense, as a threat. The theft of Scorm was reason enough, and now the Forgotten are openly hostile. I hereby declare the Forgotten in a state of war with the Chima Alliance. Relate this announcement to the Forgotten themselves if they don't stop their attack on the Swamp. The Sabertoothes also must be dealt with. While I'm willing to give the Icebears the benefit of the doubt, since, in a long time, their tribe has only attacked the Scorpions' Crystal Crater, simply to use as a construction site for a new HQ... the Sabertoothes are a different story, and openly stated that they won't stop their invasion until the Lions are destroyed. Perhaps we can and should take advantage of the transitional period for their leadership. Leon, have the Lion Air Force mobilize and go north immediately."
"Erdrik": "Ugh, maybe you were right, Bliston... but the tribes must be united... the Manta Ray Empire mustbe brought to justice, and I suppose that can't happen as long as this foolish old man leads the Lions."
The masked King turns away and flies out the window with the eagles.
Lycan: "Anyhow, thank you for your hospitality, Bats. It appears this meeting is more or less over."
Bliston, quiet again, nods and flies out the window with his entourage, leaving Rex and the guards of the Bat Embassy here.
Leodus: "Supreme Regent Lycan, I must urge you to reconsider about the Sabertoothes. Perhaps their new leader doesn't wish to destroy the Lions like his predecessors did. We don't know his stance on the war, since he didn't appear at this Summit—"
Lycan: "But it is for that reason that I'm finally taking the initiative, and bombing the Sabertoothes. If their new leader was really interested in peace, he would've accepted the invitation here. We must take advantage of the Sabertoothes' loss of their southern bases —and the transitional period for their leadership— and neutralize the hostile tribe before they can invade again."
Petricoff says under his breath: "Looks like our attempt at gaining sympathy didn't exactly work. Oh well, we already have allies anyway."
Petricoff: "Alright Skunkeltia, let's head back to town."
Lycan: "I still haven't agreed to ally with the Eagles, 'Erdrik'. As I said, you seem to want to attack the rays out of a place of anger. You mustn't let emotion cloud your judgment.

-the little skunk girl gasps and snorks, awaking after a long time of boredom, she yawns-
Skunkeltia: "y-yeah~? Ooohhkay, let's go... ugh... that was SOOOO BORRRRIIING!!!" -she'd moans out-
Petricoff (turns to the other tribe leaders and representatives as they leave): "A-hem, yes, well, be seeing you."
Petricoff and the Minor Tribes entourage accept the flight from the Bat dropship back down to the ground from Cavora. Lycan goes back to the Lion Temple, Vamprah flies back to the Valley of Balance after briefly conversing privately with Leodus about some sort of future action, and Leodus stays in the Lion City after coming down from Cavora, talking with Lycor and Malgus II about something.

-on the way back, Skunkeltia looks to the Peacock that brought her along and stirred the courage to say something-
"E-excuse m-me, i-i know you brought me along to the meeting and all a-and, uh... I really wonder if my father was a bit more... stable? He would've brought me to the meeting and explained things to me that didn't make sense... n-not saying that you're a bad caretaker a-and all..."
-meanwhile, seemingly out of nowhere, almost crashing into Petricoff and Skunkeltia, it was the rather-so fabulous and magnificent Pegalat, or for those in the Speedor Racing Comunnity, Dom de La Woosh II!-
Pegalat: "AAAYYHH~!!! W-woah that was a close call!...oh hello there fellow minor tribers, how do you do!?!"
Skunkeltia: "Oh great, Mr. Showoff is here again..." -she said in an exasperated tone-

Petricoff dodges to the right, safely falling into the soft grass of the Lions' plains.
Petricoff: "Full of energy, huh? Oh, that's right; have you come from Minor Tribes HQ, and if so, can I have an update on the battle there? I thought it'd ended, but now I've heard that the sabertoothes are still at it."

-The Peacock laughed and looked so happy to be around- "I'm back, apparently i tend to dissapear for a while akin to my own father, it's strange, really! But at least i yearn for more speedor races to show up, it's been Cavora knows HOW long since we had an official one!"

Petricoff: "Yeah, well... I heard the last one didn't go so well for any party involved, except the Ravens and Crocs. Anyhow, I see now that you didn't come from Minor Tribes HQ, otherwise you'd either be proclaiming our victory, or hastily explaining that the battle isn't over, and that the Sabertoothes are striking back."
The young peacock looks around at the rest of the Minor Tribes envoy, and gets back on his speedor.
Petricoff: "Everyone here? Let's hurry and get going, people. I'm worried about the situation back at HQ."

Skunkeltia: "Oh alotta stuff, birdbrain..." -she'd chuckle at her snarky remarky-
