## ARCP

**Anomalous Research and Containment Protocols:** Outside of archival documentation, LOI-115-Kanegawa, -Wakayama, -Mie, -Miyazaki and -Kumamoto were to be referred by their legal names.

As part of the CHARYBDIS Agreement, LOI-115 will be placed under the provisional admonistrative auspices of Project CHARYBDIS until its eventual integration into the international community. The Mutual Defense Treaty between the United North American States and the Fusoan Empire will include both the Novayan Confederation and the five governorates. The PFC Archangel Division is tasked with maintaining security throughout the five governorates to ensure no hostile Groups of Interest would take over or eliminate them.

To better integrate the governorates further, the five governors-militant and the various librariums and Astreno-Japanese magocracies will be assisted by various Fusoan and international companies and the PFC Logistics Division to allow the translation and printing of books containing histories on the five governorates, their religions and cultures, and their governments, militaries and so on.

## Description

Location of Interest 115 refers to the five military governorates of Kanegawa (Kha'neygh-Ghavha), Wakayama (Uvakaiama), Mie (Mihyeheh), Miyazaki (Mih'yash-Zhash'khi), and Kumamoto (Khum'mha-Moh'toh), all located on five floating provinces 8km above the surface and 10km each away from the five prefectures of the same name. The mechanism that allowed all five provinces to float is the result of the governors-militant's plan to use a thaumaturgical technique in conjunction with the various Astreno-Japanese magocracies and various Aagiokratian circles.

LOI-115-1 was a TK-class "LAND APPORTATION" scenario.

## Addendum 115.1: Antediluvian Historical Investigations

As a result of initial diplomatic efforts between the governors-militant of the five provinces as well as members of Project CHARYBDIS, the Fusoan government and several gods, the public consensus of the global community as well as the Paranormal Forces Coalition are now at odds with a greater consensus reality pertaining to the five governorates. Further diplomatic efforts has allowed Project CHARYBDIS to utilize the governorates' libraries and records for research.

The following table outlines various expectations and inaccuracies regarding the hypothesized governorates, and the truths regarding the actual reality of them.

 The Five Governorates would attempt to either restore the Black Empire of Maradika by establishing kingdoms and empires from themselves or contact the other Imperial cities that were underground, potentially resulting in a "Broken Worlds" scenario.
 The Five Governorates were dominantly Maradikan and had Maradikanized Fusonic culture, with only few cultures in existence.
 The Maradikan Aagiokratia, first established in the Governorate of Uvakaiama, still existed.
This great schism bore heavy resemblance to the Great Schism that splits the Imperial Roman Church (now exists today as its reformed successor, the Nicene Chalcedonian Church). Unlike the latter, however, the former schism ended in a more respectful note due to involvement of the governors-militant and the decision of Borealis III.
 The Five Governorates contain large armies that await activation the moment war breaks out. Its forces were divided into two: poorly-equipped and -trained massed levies used as cannon fodder, with a few small yet highly-equipped and -trained professional Maradikan legions.

## Addendum 115.2: [REDACTED]

A number of books and documents were released by the PFC Logistics Division and various non-governmental organizations for those to purchase and read or learn at the libraries or websites.

* The Five Governorates
* Antediluvian Cultures
* Antediluvian Religions
The military governorates of Kanegawa, Wakayama, Mie, Miyazaki and Kumamoto were previously part of the Black Empire of Maradika prior to an antediluvian event known as the Great Flood. Once part of the Black Empire they operate with greater autonomy from it and were independent from the Fusoan Empire and the Novayan Confederation while periodically answering to Project CHARBDYS' leadership.

**Antedluvian Cultures**

The cultures of the Five Governorates were far few but were the antediluvian ancestors of the Filipinos, Novayans and Fusoans. Other cultures such as those from Toron, Ying, Olde Europ the Daevas and the antediluvian times Middle East also existed.

**Novayano-Japanese culture:** The primary culture in the five governorates is the Novayano-Japanese, previously known as the Fusono-Maradikans. First created from Maradikan colonists after the Black Empire's botched albeit semi-successful invasion of the Fuso Archipelago, they intermingled with the subjugated Fusonic cultures in the five antediluvian provinces of Kanegawa, Wakayama, Mie, Miyazaki and Kumamoto to create a hybrid culture. Those born within Fusono-Maradikan families were taught the martial aspects of the Imperial Maradikan culture as well as showing full reverence for veteran Imperial warriors and legionaries and pure disdain for those who seek nothing but mere adventures instead of wars and battles where glory could be found.

However as years go by the colonials and the now-growing Fusono-Maradikan culture began opposing the cruelty inflicted upon the Fusonics by the governors-miltant and their lackeys and allies within the Cult of the Worm, which resulted in the oppression including the colonials and Fusono-Maradikans; only those loyal to the governors-miltant and the local cultist magocracies and nobility were rewarded until Governor-Militant Borealis III rose to power at the very young age of 16 upon the forced resignation and retirement of his pro-reform predecessor.

During and even before his tenure as governor-militant the Fusono-Maradikan (simplified today as Novayano-Japanese) culture, now the first majority culture, have been known for preferring castles more than cities, recognized by how heavily fortified the cities and towns really were. Unlike the patriarchal aspects of Imperial Maradikan culture, Novayano-Japanese have favored equal inheritance between makes and females. Also unlike traditional Maradikan culture, there exists easier integration of cultures into Novayano-Japanese society due to policies granting greater culture autonomy.

Similar to other cultures from antediluvian, ancient classical and medieval times, Novayano-Japanese soldiers were known to be formation fighting experts as recognized by its usage of antediluvian times combined arms tactics involving different types of troops. Veterans were treated with respect but not worshipped due to cultural and religious norms that were otherwise not found in Maradikan culture. Even more unusually, enemies captured by Novayano-Japanese soldiers were not killed but outright recruited due to to their talents and skills.

Due to prior experiences before reformists arose to take charge, Novayano-Japanese were more opposed to not just the oppression performed by the cultists, nobles and governors-miltant but also their lies and false promises. As a result, they became more charitable and compassionate, all the while favoring the truth and impartial justice.

Aside from all those, Novayano-Japanese sociocultural practices such as those involving family businesses match those of the Filipinos' and Novayans' own.

**Astreno-Japanese culture:** The secondary majority though small culture is the Astreno-Japanese, previously known as the Fusono-Astrenians. Descended from colonials hailing from the Kingdom of Astrenia prior to becoming a vassal of the Black Empire, the Astreno-Japanese were practitioners of magic and thaumaturgy as well as librarians, bookkeepers, chroniclers and writers as well as bureaucrats.

While similar to Maradikan practitioners, Astrenians and Astreno-Japanese have a tendency to practice their magic without having to resort to human sacrifices, instead studying and working harder to improve their magic. There exists the few most powerful magi. Despite this, Astreno-Japanese magicians favor those whose merits qualify instead of status and prestige.**Antediluvian Religions**

In the five governorates there existed a number of religions both modern and ancient. Below are the few religions in existence today and in the past.

**Cult of the Worm:** The Cult of the Worm, or Cult of the Loop, is previously the dominant religion in the five governorates prior to its dismantlement following a failed uprising by Maradikan conservatives, reactionaries and traditionalists in response to Governor-Militant Borealis III reforming the Wakayama Governorate culturally, religiously and politically.

**Maradikan Aagiokratia:** The Maradikan Aagiokratia is the name of the reformist sect of the Cult of the Worm that was decided into the ecclesiarchalo-autoxephalous **Novayanas Aagiokratia** and the high priesthood-led **Nova Konstantinopolis Aagiokratia**.

The practices of the Maradikan Aagiokratia resemble those of the Abrahamic religions especially those of the Christian denominations of Catholicism, Orthodoxy, Protestantism, Chalcedonism and Shintoism: veneration of the saints, the communion, and use of religious icons. Initially a united religion, a schism saw its division into the Novayanas Aagiokratia and the Nova Konstantinopolis Aagiokratia.

**Novayanas Aagiokratia:** The Novayanas Aagiokratia (Maradikan: *Imperial Novayan*, *Novayan Faith*) is one of several dominant religions in the five governorates and one of two religions that once make up the Maradikan Aagiokratia.

The organizational structure of the Novayanas Aagiokratian conclave match those of the Eastern Orthodox Church's and the Nicene Chalcedonian Church's: the five Novayanas Aagiokratian conclaves were each led by the Potentates, with one of them being the High Potentate, who serves as the Ecumenical Potentate of Wakayama.

**Nova Konstantinopolis Aagiokratia:** The Nova Konstantinopolis Aagiokratia (Maradikan: *Imperial Nova Constantinople*, *Faith of Nova Constantinople*) is one of several dominant religions in the five governorates and one of two religions that once make up the Maradikan Aagiokratia.

The organizational structure of the Nova Konstantinopolis Aagiokratian conclaves match those of the Roman Catholic Church's and the various Protestant churches: the various Nova Konstantinopolis Aagiokratian conclaves and archdioceses were led by High Priests or High Priestesses, with deacons, archbishops and bishops below them, with the College of the High Priesthood electing a High Priest Designate or High Priestess Designate as the formal leader of the aagiokratia proper.
### Published Records

* Records I
* Records IX
WIP but is a primer on the Black Empire, its history, governance and military and economy.

WIP; in a nutshell a history of the Imperial Regent where he's being based and goes on a conquest only to lose everything during the battle of the Flying City of Audapaupadopolis when some Lesser Demon cucked him hard by firing a magic spell at the shields which got overloaded and allowed the floodwaters to overwhelm the entirety of the surviving half of the Black Empire. And he walks the world now while the last of his surviving children and descendants had to settle into the new cultures. Rip Black Empire.
SPOILERS ALERT! Not all of the surviving half of the Black Empire aka Western Black Empire was destroyed cuz SEQUEL INCOMING ONCE THIS IS DONE!

 **Governor Borealis III:** To be honest, I feel uncomfortable using these kind of...things. It's...scary, though.
**Kampangan:** Really? You just have to say that *before* the meeting started?
**Governor Borealis III:** I can't help it, Director Marie Kampangan. The fact I'm using these modern technologies meant I might get exposed to unhealthy things.
**Isuzu:** Want Nicolae Carpathia to do the work for you?
**Yahweh:** *(laughs quietly)* Please, chillax, everyone! No need to talk about the Governor-Militant ruining the mood!
**Amaterasu Omikami:** Don't worry, Governor-Militant. Once we finish this meeting we'll start discussing how best we'd apply modern technology and paratechnology into the Five Governorates.
**Governor Borealis III:** Uh, okay?
**Carpathia:** Is IUPFCNet still fixed?
**Fortunato:** PFC Logistics Division's still working on it, so it might take a while.
**Director Johnson:** Greetings, everyone, and welcome to the meeting. We apologize for the inconvenience brought upon IUPFCNet by the FLIP SIDE Anomaly, so we had to do this on Zoom. Good thing we secured a private room for us to be in.
**Director Palaiologos:** I take it you all read Records IX, right?
**Juan Dela Cruz:** We read it. What about it?
**Director Palaiologos:** As it turns out, there is more than meets the eye. As you may have read, the Five Governorates were a byproduct of the Black Empire's botched invasion of Fuso in the past. After reinforcements from Ying and Yor-Salem stopped the Maradikans from invading more of Fuso, or Yamato if you all prefer, and turned them back to the provinces you now see today, they established the current military governorates of today.
**Director Palaiologos:** *Wait*, you may ask, *why is this the forefront?* The answer is simple: the five governorates had kept records of the Black Empire as well as maps of Antediluvian-era Atelansia. We've been looking at the tip of the iceberg for a long while now, and if it weren't for the records kept in the Five Governorates we wouldn't be able to know. Now we have dived deeper into what we want to look at: a treasure trove located in Southeast Atelansia, a treasure trove the Black Empire had left for us.
**Admiral Borealis III:** That may explain why NAOPA-affiliated vessels and aerospacecraft detected random anomalous signals throughout Novaya.
**San Martin:** Care to explain?
**Admiral Gutierrez:** We kept this a secret for a long time, so now we'll tell you. During the past decades the still-developing Novayan military is creating its own paratechs in conjunction with the Charybdis Organization in an effort to help defend Novaya. While testing them out the engineers reported that their proto-Kant counters had been detecting anomalous interference before dying out, so we thought it is just a glitch. However, it was only during the Second Great World War that the same anomalous interference is detected all across the board.
**Dawson:** What happened?
**Admiral Gutierrez:** Remember the supposed battle of Western Novaya? If so, it did took place. However, the Imperial Fusoan Navy that was supposed to engage elements of the Novayan Navy and Air Force was assailed from below by something. No, it wasn't your average sea monster, but rather lightning bolts coming from below. The ships were undamaged, but the lightning bolts kept firing at them from below. In the engagement that followed, several ships suffered moderate damages before the Fusoans were forced to turn tail. Both sides' air elements, who were engaging each other, were engulfed in a dark storm that forced both air forces to withdraw, since there were lightning attacking.
**Admiral Borealis III:** In the second battle of Western Novaya, several Imperial Fusoan naval barges landed troops in the coasts at night, who were supposed to assault three military bases to their immediate southeast and east. There were about 13,000 Fusoan soldiers who arrived there. But when they arrived at their targets, all they saw were nothing but the ruins of the very military bases. A lot of dead soldiers strewn about. The attack wasn't started by the Fusoans, who just arrived at the scene of the crime. After scouring the bases they found several survivors who managed to hide from whatever attacked them. Not long after, three Novayan infantry battalions arrived to investigate the unexpected loss of contact, and a Mexican standoff occur between the two sides; the survivors were able to negotiate a ceasefire and begged both sides to cooperate.
**Admiral Borealis III:** Once both sides agreed albeit reluctantly, the survivors explained what had occurred the previous night: monsters of horrifyingly unimaginable proportions attacked them with claws, teeth and powers that would've been considered magic. These monsters slaughtered the troops left and right while they were trying to defend themselves or fleeing. Several survivors managed to hide in the basements, armories, barrels, crates, boxes, even toilet rooms. They were also able to save those who were badly wounded, though few sacrificed themselves to allow the others to escape. After the monsters had seemingly left an hour later, a few survivors took the risk to take a truck and drive out towards the nearest city while a few others went to the radio room to broadcast a message for help. The ones who left via truck arrived at a nearby town and, upon meeting a battalion officer, requested help, a request that was granted.
**Admiral Borealis III:** Once the survivors explained what had happened, the battalions radioed for additional support. Several hours later, more Fusoan troops had landed and were en route to the three military bases. But when the next night comes, both military forces were assailed by the same monsters, which forced the Novayan military to deploy a majority of its forces to Western Novaya to help quash the monstrosities. The battle for Western Novaya lasted for three years, this time it is not about the two sides fighting each other but two sides fighting together to end a threat that was equally more worse. The Novayan military had to redirect its reservists to the forefront to kill of the monsters.
**Admiral Borealis III:** Finally, once those monsters were killed, search parties were sent to find out where they came from. The Charybdis Organization soon joined in and sent several of their specialists to find out what had happened. Suffice to say, what all three had found were a cave network leading to several tombs and vaults very deep underground. Charybdis soon took over and allowed both sides to withdraw. Charybdis had set up facilities which would then be given over to the International Union's Paranormal Forces Coalition in 1976, which led to the invasion of such tombs and vaults and the elimination of all monsters.
**Onselen:** That may explain why the IUPFC had established the Far Eastern Regional Command in the first place.
**Admiral Gutierrez:** But that is not all. You see, in 1998, while NAOPA's exploration teams visited the vaults and tombs that became the new underground facilities, aetheric resonance imaging results show that these structures were created at least hundreds of thousands, if not millions of years ago. While trying to investigate, one of the teams had discovered there were a few more levels below, all filled with the horrid monsters as well as corpses of the fallen monsters. After alarming both Far Eastern Regional Command and NAOPA, substantial amount of manpower, resources and equipment were sent to eliminate all those monsters.
**Onselen:** Wow.
**Salehi:** I didn't know our predecessors kept these things until, as I quote them, "when the time is right."
**Imway:** At least we know why you CHARYBDIS folks requested us to hand the facilities over to us.
