Introduction:

Lord second took the stage and welcomed everyone to the meeting, stating that each and every group will have the opportunity to state their own opinion and story before everyone tonight. He acknowledged that not everyone will see eye to eye tonight and it was pressed that a sense of respect be kept tonight by the representative of the police force.

Topic 1: The Fair Fight Treaty

Kuroie of the Hidden Leaf took the stage to present his own proposition first. He introduced it as the Fair Fights Act and asked for representatives from each guild to form a council to mediate this treaty. The goal of this treaty is to end the activities of those who look to “Punch down” at those who are unable to defend themselves. Initial signers of the Treaty before tonight Included Nari of the Sunsail League and Tidus representing the Rain refugees.

While the idea itself saw quite a large amount of support, quite a few people showed doubt on how exactly a counsel would operate, judge whether or not a fight is fair or not, and enforce its policies. Kuroie proposed a strike force dedicated to enforcing the treaty, formed of members of every organization participating on the Counsel. Doling out punishment as needed.

A copy of this Treaty was provided for reference to everyone in attendance. (This can be found in the Roleplay hub section of the discord.)

Topic 2: Elite Shinobi Academy
 

Celean stepped forward and announced the formation of an Academy dedicated to teaching and nurturing the next generation of Shinobi. Already beginning recruitment, she stated that she aimed to be a non-political entity and take part in no war, stating their intent to defend their own neutrality and students.

While students who graduate will be encouraged to continue on as Teachers or Staff, Celean also stated that they will reach out to other organization leaders to help guide their students should they be looking towards a different future. She also further encouraged those from every organization to to interact with the students of the academy to learn about the culture of the land and help them choose a future for themselves.

There was concern that aiding these students would be akin to aiding future enemies, however Celean was quick to point out they could be potential recruits as well. Stating that reputation of the organizations would play a large role in ensuring who ended up going where.

Celean encourages every organization to also assist in organizing joint training with the members of the academy, allowing students to further learn about the various organizations and form a network for themselves for future possibilities. Celean also swore an oath of neutrality in front of the group, promising that they will participate in no war or politics that are not thrust upon them.

Topic 3: Is it possible to end this war?

After Celean, Lord Second took the stage once more and rather flatly asked the question… Is it possible to end this war? To answer this question, he called upon the Organizations The Hidden Leaf Village, Hidden Rain Shinobi, Karatachi Clan and Amegakure Syndicate to speak.

The Hidden Leaf Village:

Maintaining the stage, Lord Second addressed the current state of the Leaf, stating they wanted to end this conflict. He referenced the tactics the Village has adopted from some of their enemies in recent history and the outcry that has resulted from the use of such tactics, stating that there is no better time than now to end this conflict. 
 

Hidden Rain Shinobi:

As Tidus took the stage he declared that it is his opinion that the war stems from one thing, Alther Uchiha being Hokage. He explained that the majority of the people in attendance today were not here for the events that lead up to the situation we are in right now.

While he admitted to not having a proper plan, he did believe the rogue Uchiha Pyreanoro should have a place to speak tonight. He believed that the leaf was acting controlling of the conversation and requested that a proper end should be sought out.

Bloodlust Brotherhood:

Granting the Rain shinobi his request, Lord Second allowed Woody Uchiha to take the stage representing the rogue organization. He stated that the Organization had the following goals…
 

1: The Leaf withdraws their forces from the battlefield.
2: The Leaf surrenders
3: The election of a new Hokage of the Hidden Leaf.
 

Amegakure Syndicate: 
 

Wahataura first thanked Lord Second for taking the initiative to organize this meeting “Allowing words rather than fists to take the lantern light this evening.” He declared that Lord Pyreanoro Uchiha was his Daimyo and that he swore an oath to this lord. While he claimed to support Lord Second’s bid for peace, he would only support it in terms his Daimyo would accept.

His assistant Shirohana then spoke up, claiming that her view on achieving peace was that it was best taken in baby steps.

Karatachi Clan: 
 

Smoosh of the Karatachi clan took the stage, thanking everyone for welcoming his people to this land as guests.

He stated that most everything said today has at least some truth to it, that a ghost of a past war haunted these lands to the point of it becoming only a battlefield of hatred. While he will support peace for his people, it isn't his place to enforce it as he is a guest. Instead, he stated that it was down to the rogue faction and the Hokage to sort it out themselves.

Closing thoughts:

Lord Second claimed it has been a productive session and that everyone was welcome to the Leaf’s Friday night Akimichi Grill meetup. As final thoughts were requested, Lord Pyreanoro Uchiha requested the floor, which he was allowed.

He began by thanking everyone for this opportunity and the Akimichi for their hospitality. He claimed that he sought peace as much as any Leaf however further stated that there will be no armistice until the Leaf Surrenders. He claimed he wished for the Uchiha to be free of the boot of the leaf.

Lord Second then retorted, claiming the freedom he wanted was already his, and that all a surrender would do is serve to destabilize the leadership of Konohagakure. He claimed that Leaf was the oppressed side and that they’ve already attempted to sue for peace many times.

Lord Pyreanoro simply replied with a threat.

With a short statement that future discussions would be had at another time, the meeting was adjourned.
