Official Dispatch from the High Chancellery of the Commonwealth.

To whom it may concern,

It is with the greatest grief that we must report to you of the sudden demise of our Emperor, George IV Campbell as well as His Highness Crown Prince David Campbell, who both died earlier today of their injuries in Rossendam Royal Medical Center following an unfortunate series of events which led to the crash of flight CA-X1X, a Royal Aerospace Force jet which was carrying His Majesty and The Crown Prince at the time of the accident.

As the Commonwealth suddenly plunges into darkness, Chancellor Alexander Clifford has urgently returned to Rossendam from a conference he was attending to temporarily become the head of state in a time of great distress. An official ceremony will take place within the next days when the nation will have a chance to bid farewell to its lost ruler as well as the late 43-year-old heir to the throne. We kindly ask all countries that if they have Arwindom's state flag displayed in any manner to lower it to half-post in a sign of respect.

An official committee composed of officials from the Arwindom Air Transport Agency was formed earlier today to investigate the incident to reconstruct the course of events as well as determine the cause of the crash. Meanwhile, preparations are made for 29-year-old Princess Emily Campbell, who was 3rd in line of succession to the throne to be crowned as 12th Empress of the Commonwealth.

As the nation braces itself for some hard times following the sudden loss of its ruler, we are more than determined to press on as surrendering is not considered to be a trait of an Arwinden.

We hope for your support and understanding in these times of need. The Chancellery will keep updating the other governments of Northern Utopia on the national happenings as the events unfold further.

The Emperor is dead. Long live the Empress!

High Chancellery of the Commonwealth.
