It was a day three months ago in the kingdom of Cystia. It was a beautiful kingdom with a rich culture and while it's size and population were tiny compared to the massive Facebook Empire, even so the people there were content with what they had. However, the kingdom was now rotting from within, months before, a large number of people from distant lands immigrated to Cystia, they called themselves the Warrior Cats or WC for short. As it had been for years since the foundation of the kingdom, new people were always welcome and the WC were given a place here. However, it was soon discovered that the WC culture was degrading the kingdom, slowly choking Cystia's own culture out. At first, only a few radicals of the kingdom were pleading to the King Alexp and his ministers, the Mods, to banish this scourge and restore the kingdom to it's former glory.
The Mods did not do that, instead, they asked the nobles and people of Cystia to try and show these new people how things run here. The nobles and the people agreed, however, any attempt at this was rebuffed by these new people. So, the mods answered by turning the WC culture into a sub-culture of the larger Freeform Culture. This however, did little to stop the WC from spreading their horrible literature and culture around the kingdom. Slowly, the people joined the radicals and demanded the banishment of these people. The WC responded by declaring war to Cystia and it's people. The war was short-lived as a few more rational people of the kingdom already had signed a peace treaty with the WC that turned the conflict from a war to a cold war and effectively stopped the actual fighting.
This did not stop the hate for the WC from growing to a point where even the most cultured nobles began to hate the WC and it was even harder for the mods to keep the situation from escaping out of hand and into a conflict yet again. For the time, everyone was somewhat calm, some action having been made against the WC, many of their books were banned and their growth had been slowed down to a degree. But the WC answered only by publishing more of their books and refusing the help of the few people of Cystia that still wanted to help them.
Only the Mods know what made them to start to start the Purge of Cystia, but whatever happened, it angered the nobles greatly. And thus, it started, at first, all freeform was to be stopped completely until a better decree could come in place to make the situation of the kingdom better. And when it came, it hit hard, a decree was put that said what the kingdom banned:
- Low quality literature
- Low Quality or Freeform Plays
- Warrior Cats and poorly conceived fan fiction in general
- Sexual Plays
- Mindless arguments
- Empty discussions devoid of meaningful content.
And what they desired:
- High quality stories or literature
- Sophisticated or intellectual debates
- Sophisticated or exceptional plays
- Events
- In progress announcements for upcoming stories or works of literature
- Discussion about the better stories or works of literature
- Good conversation between mature people
The decree, now known as the Purge of Cystia all but destroyed the WC culture, most of it's adherents having left the kingdom for another place, or having been banished out of the kingdom for good. However, the Purge, severely damaged the larger Freeform culture and many of the adherents of this culture left and formed a so called empire, called the Empire of the Wolf God, created by a influential man named DerpBacon. Quite a few people left Cystia to gain citizenship of this new empire where they could practice their beliefs, including the WC.
Following the fall of Freeform from favor and losing it's power, the System culture gained a large following and influence not seen since it's glory days of Commander. Most of the people that adhered to freeform, now turned their heads and joined the System culture. A few people tried to convince the Mods to modify the decree in order to allow freeform back, but their voices fell short, being denied.
Since then, Cystia's population had increased a while after the Decree was set, replacing the old ones that had inhabited the kingdom and left it after the Decree was set in motion and now it is yet again thriving, with many of the new people only adding and improving the culture of Cystia after it's decline during the cultural attack of the WC and it's future seems bright, with nothing bad on the horizon...
NOTE: This is not meant to insult, anger, or offend anyone. I was also not sure if this was to be placed here or in the Writing Workshop since I don't really plan on making a storygame out of this.
Having said that... comment away!
