Title: Seeking the Wealth
Type of RP: Internal

Story:

Food. Here on Kaitain no one had to go without it, grand balls and celebrations were held daily and the amount of food consumed could feed three planets. No one ever had to starve on the Imperial capitol, no one ever out of reach of the goods. And yet, in the vastness of the Corrino Empire, many were experiencing just that.

Food was becoming scarce in some places, outright rare in others. Like the munitions situation a few months ago, Houses seemed to be buying all food up and stockpiling - leaving the general masses without any sort of goods. It was wrong in so many ways, and yet CHOAM was once again trapped in red-tape. No side could agree on a resolution to help investigate the stockpilers nor bring them to justice.

And so Shaddam was forced to take actions himself, to bypass the red-tape and CHOAM. The low levels peons and their deaths on his worlds did not concern him, they were expendable and bred like wild fire as is. But it was easy for the Landsraad to turn around and accuse the Emperor of failing to protect the Empire from this crises. Yes he had to act.

"Summon every House Minor noble to Kaitain that is known to be able to produce food goods, be it without a CHOAM charter or with one. Inform them their Emperor demands their presence within three days. Also state that Imperial House Corrino wishes to procure as much food product as possible, for 10s per silo."

The messenger nodded and left for the next Guild shuttle.

If no one else would act on this crises, then Shaddam would.

Summary:
  • Shaddam commands all House Minor nobles, who's planets can produce food, to come to Kaitain for a Royal Court meeting.
  • The message shall include details of the meeting and the fact House Corrino shall purchase a silo of food for 10s each.
