BALAMB, SYRIXIA- The Prime Minister, The R. Hon. Alfred Nursson, was pronounced dead earlier this afternoon following a catastrophe in the extreme northeast of the Khaar'haku province. The Prime Minister was there to meet with two other important men; John Agnarsson, CEO of Inisqimaan Incorporated, and Alan Day, CEO of Dahraqa Financiers, LLC. to discuss what to do about Syrixia's economic future. Former soldiers who were discharged after Syrixia's recent NPTO-backed military downsizing have created tons of jobs for Syrixia, however many economists speculate that won't be enough, hence why the meeting was scheduled.
Mr. Agnarsson, who was the only survivor of the attack, sat down with us for an interview and talked about the experience. According to him, the terrorists, whose identities and nationalities are still unknown, snuck into an Inisqimaan Incorporated power plant where Agnarsson was hosting the meeting. This location was chosen by Agnarsson for the meeting because of its remoteness, and thus, its heightened safety. However, the head chef of the plant, Frederick Johnson, reportedly was working with the terrorists and inserted some kind of poison into the day's lunch, a traditional Syrixian soup, in order to kill all of the guards.
Not only did all the guards die, but so did Alan Day, who ate his soup as soon as it was served to the three men. When he collapsed dead, Agnarsson says, everyone in the room stood up and looked around, wondering if something was going on. The presence of local police a mere minute later confirmed this, and soon enough the terrorists had broken down the door, tossed a flashbang grenade in the room, and killed all the security guards inside the room as well. Agnarsson said the leader, a young woman, dispatched her two associates, two men, to blow up the plant itself. She then spared Agnarsson, telling him to get out of the plant.
Soon after Agnarsson exited the plant, according to him, a gunshot was fired, and through the translucent windows Agnarsson could make out the body of Nursson slumping over dead. Agnarsson then found the police and got them to break in using C4 explosives. Mysteriously, the terrorists were gone. Day and Nursson's bodies were collected, and the police and Agnarsson, with the bodies in tow, escaped with their lives as the plant blew up. Some officers heroically tried to stop the terrorists, but there was not enough time. With the loss of the power plant means that the towns of Luqya, Dohar, and Hafej are now experiencing a blackout, and the government has encouraged people from these towns to buy and use generators or solar panels.
The terrorists were presumed dead after the explosion, however, mysteriously, their bodies were never found. The country, however, will go on. A special election that started minutes after the Prime Minister was pronounced dead has elected Auel Vist, former Minister of Defense, as the next Prime Minister. He plans to greenify Syrixia totally, eliminating nuclear power and utilizing green resources in larger amounts. He also aspires to have a state funeral for the late Prime Minister. He pledges to make Syrixia peaceful again under his administration; as he was a key challenger of Nursson's policies. Nevertheless, while Syrixia has lost a brash warmongerer, it has also lost a strong man who brought Syrixia into the modern age. The now rechristened Free Republic of Syrixia, he says, is a new dawn of peace for Syrixia; however that does not mean Nursson's memory is gone.
