Issue #107

Absolute Loyalty and Compliance

Citizens of the Empire,
This is your weekly reminder that you are watched. Your every movement, every breath, every thought—you may think you are free to think or act as you wish, but the Empire’s gaze is unyielding. Do not mistake silence for safety. Do not mistake distance for absence. We know who you are. And rest assured, those who wander too far from the path of absolute compliance will be corrected. Firmly. Your loyalty is demanded. Your thoughts are controlled. Your actions are monitored. There is no escaping the Empire’s sight. And if any part of you doubts this truth, know that doubt will be eradicated.
The reports of whispers—the subversive murmurs that dare to question the will of the Empire—have reached the Throne. They do not go unnoticed. Be very clear: any attempt to defy the Empire will be met with swift retribution. The consequences for those who dare question or challenge the order are severe. Your dissent will not only cost you, it will cost your family, your friends, your neighbors. Resistance to the Empire is not a personal choice. It is a shared burden. Disobey, and the consequences will ripple through the lives of those you claim to protect. Your rebellion will stain them all. Consider your position, and your choices, carefully.
And now, a matter of great importance—something that has been growing far too out of control: cheese. Let us be perfectly clear. The consumption of cheese will no longer be tolerated in any form. This vile, disgusting substance—fit only for the vermin of the lower tunnels—has no place in the Empire. You may have grown comfortable with this indulgence, thinking it harmless, perhaps even normal. Let me assure you, it is not. It is a product of decay, of filth, of things beneath us. To continue consuming it is to choose weakness. To choose inferiority. From this moment forward, cheese of all kinds is strictly prohibited. Anyone found in possession of it will face immediate correction. And don’t think you can simply hide it. The Empire’s reach is absolute. Anyone complicit in such indulgence will face consequences far beyond their own comprehension. You are warned.
The choice is simple: submit to the Empire’s will, or suffer the punishment for your transgressions. Do not let the noise of defiance cloud your judgment. Your future is in our hands, and it will remain there—whether you accept it or not. There is no room for individuality in the Empire. There is no room for rebellion. Those who continue to defy the will of the Empire will be made an example of, and that example will be remembered. The Empire will not allow weakness to persist. We will ensure your compliance, by whatever means necessary.
The Throne Sees All. Stay obedient. Stay alive.
