[mod post] omid follow-up  
On Tuesday, everyone from City Hall is evacuated. Queen Omid and her paladins return to her castle in Bastantown. The press will be kept at a distance, but there are snippets of Omid and Harriet et all on the footage played by the news later that day.

On Wednesday, the US government meets with Queen Omid and the Sharifa to discuss negotiations. The following parameters are agreed upon:

- Queen Omid is protected by diplomatic immunity. However, the US holds the ability to declare her a persona non grata, meaning they can kick her out. Because Everea as a country is still in Zenderael and warping others between worlds is not possible, that means she may be held in probation or shipped to another Earth country that is willing to take her if she is declared a persona non grata.

- Zendereans in Fall City and Underwood will fall under Queen Omid's jurisdiction.

- All Zendereans will be required to register in a census of the Zenderean population in Fall City and Underwood.

- The hostages of City Hall will be monetarily compensated by Queen Omid.


Additionally, the US government will suggest that the Sharifa act as a diplomat between the original Earth population of Fall City/Underwood and the Zenderean population in Fall City/Underwood. Harriet is given three days to respond. The US government will expect an answer on Saturday.

The meeting's topics are not immediately shared with the public.

(Omid does not want to leave the building with cool air for her castle because it is humid as fuck. She looks fabulous anyway. Fuck you, Keidra. )

Harriet will be escorted by female bodyguards supplied by the US government**unless players would like to offer their character(s) in the place of NPCs. These characters must be ICly approved. Please discuss in the comments.** EDIT Harriet will be covertly monitored and protected by members of the diplomatic security service.

On Thursday, the US government makes an official press release about what has been decided. Queen Omid also makes an appearance, giving a remorseful speech of apology and promise to work together with the government and the people of Fall City and Underwood.

Harriet's offer to become a diplomat is not publicized.

Public opinion on Queen Omid is in the negatives. The friends and families of those held hostage are especially outraged, but there is nothing legally apparent that they can do.

There has been no date mentioned for what has been titled by the media the Zenderean Census. The US government has to set up an office with Queen Omid's kingdom. You know how these things go... Zenners who were on Earth around mid-April AND were working for X-DAV are already registered as Zendereans (as mentioned in this week change of yore). More recent Zendereans may or may not have gotten identification. That's up to you.

Those in Zenderael can keep track of what's going on with online news articles and videos.

We're open to questions!
