− | '''The Landing of Baron Robert Surcouf''' | + | '''The Landing of Baron Robert Surcouf:''' |
After a successful campaign as a privateer fighting against the English during the Napoleanic wars of freedom, Surcouf was sent to Shartak to maintain the interests of liberty and Empire in the New World. Surcouf landed in 1813 and immediately scouted out the great bulk of the island. After his reconoiter, Surcouf made contact with the Court of Raktam and was made Head of the Garrison at Fort Creedy, that bastion of freedom, when troops were sent to protect the liberties of the members and associates of the Commonwealth. Surcouf gallantly led the combined forces of Raktami, Creedyite and mercenary troops against the nefarious First Colonial Militia, who threatened the liberty of Creedy by attempting to restore the vile, besotten and English monarchist principle. With this victory Surcouf felt that it was safe to begin French colonization. Napolean was contacted, and an official treaty was smuggled to Shartak by a drunken Jacobin Irishman. The courrier was captured by English interests, but managed to send a copy of the treaty to Surcouf by co-opting the help of a one-legged lemur. Thereby, the alliance between Raktam, Creedy and the French was assured for all eternity. | After a successful campaign as a privateer fighting against the English during the Napoleanic wars of freedom, Surcouf was sent to Shartak to maintain the interests of liberty and Empire in the New World.

In the summer of 1814, Hercule Le Tof, a former vinter from the county of Anjou, set up the first French encampment, a casino on the island named Il de la Chemin-Midi. People from all over Shartak flocked to the island for the classic French way of living: gambling, prostitutes, the Catholic Church, nude sun-bathing. However, as Napolean's fortunes changed and the weight of the entire planet began to shift against him, set about by the bastard English, Il de la Chemin-Midi began to grow too dangerous to support. Jealous of the liberties, pleasures and joy of the French, various forces conspired to eject the French from the island. The French fought gallantly, but soon they realized that it was not worth fighting over an island. A peninsula is a noble prize, a river perhaps, but not an island. So the French willingly and joyfully left the island shouting defiant curses as they left. |
