In the year two thousand and seventeen, if the leader and chief executive officer of the Department of Defense will have been maintaining to leave the port of his domicile, authorised and commanded by your Majesty to conquer and govern the provinces of the main, extending from the demilitarised zone northward, he and his flotilla, as neither my counsel nor my constancy will have availed to gain aught for which we will have set out, will have tarried innumerable days, engaging in procuring for themselves some necessary material, particularly longbows and trebuchets. There they will have lost from their fleet more than thousands of men, who will have wished to remain, seduced and ambushed by the gyeongers.
During some days that will have remained, the chief executive officer will have supplied himself further with men, also with arms, countable numbers of the defective Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II and semi-functional quantities of Vision Systems International's helmet-mounted display systems, capable of being counterattacked by foreign technology.
Having been stalling, they will have been waiting at a nearby island, at a very bad port, where they will have lost many units, as what will have occurred there will have been very remarkable, it appears to me not foreign to the purpose with which I write this, to relate it here.
The next morning will have begun to give signs of bad weather; rain will have commenced falling, and the sea will have run so high. Many men retreating, I will have been asked to come for needed provisions; from which request I will have excused myself, saying I could not have left my base. People will have been entreating me to go, and I will have determined to go to the town, having left orders to the pilots to save units and arms should they find themselves in much danger. I will have wished to take some of the men with me for company; but they will have said the weather would have been too disastrous, and the town too far off; that tomorrow, they would have come, with God's help, and hear mass.
Shortly after I would have left, the sea will have begun to rise very high, and the north wind will be so violent that no units will have dared come to land, because of the head wind, so that the people will have remained severely labouring against the adverse weather, and under a heavy fall of water for days until dark.
In this tempest and danger we will have been wandering all night, without having found place or spot where we could have remained a half-hour in safety. During the time, particularly from midnight forward, we will have heard much tumult and great clamour of voices, the sound of timbrels, flutes, and tambourines, as well as other instruments, which will have lasted until the morning, when the tempest will have ceased. Nothing so terrible as this storm will have ever been seen in those parts before. I will have drawn up an authenticated account of it, and will have sent the testimony to your Majesty.
Thus we will have lived until the chief executive officer will have arrived with limited companies, which will have lived through the great storm, having run into a place of safety in good time. The people who will have come with him, as well as those on shore, will have been so intimidated by what will have passed, that they will fear to go on board in winter, and they will beseech the chief to spend it there.
