The Fall Of Athesia

THE FLAMING ISLANDS OF ATHESIA are a step closer to extinction.

The Federal Government has signed off on a plan to carve the outer islands into hundreds of small islands.

The plan will mean the future of millions of life forms and hundreds of other species could be lost forever.

The plan, put together by former environmental scientist Christopher Roberston, will see millions die.

The populations on the islands are shrinking dramatically because humans are encroaching upon everything, expanding and overpopulating habitats.

Many of the islands are on coastlines, where they cannot escape the enormous pressures of climate change.

“It’s quite possible that we’ll have islands that we can’t even get to,” Mr Roberston told SBS World News.

“Our climate is getting so far out of step with a lot of these islands that are already extinct, that the only ways to go, is for the sea to come up and cover the whole area, or for a great storm to roll across the Athenian mainland,” he said.

“If the seas were to rise 50 metres or 100 metres, it would wipe them out forever.”

“They will die. Nobody can hear them scream in the vacuum of space, nobody can hear them in the vacuum of space.”

The government also says there is no need to protect the islands if it is not necessary, but the damage would be massive.

“It’s hardly a complicated concept to ensure the conservation of habitats if there isn’t a need to protect them at this moment,” Environment Minister Greg Hunt told reporters.

According to the Guardian, “the greatest loss would be the fate of the flame-laced islands, which contain more than 180 different species, and many other life forms.”

According to the government, the populations on those islands are a mere 5% of what they were before European settlement.

There are also fears that species like those who settle here after the galactic war, may be wiped out completely by wildfires if the island chains are fully destroyed.

Mr Roberston said he believes the islands will eventually be destroyed.

“Not tomorrow. Not next year. It’s a slow-motion catastrophe happening,” he said.

The regions are deemed uninhabitable. The north of Athesia, south-west, the west coast of the continent between Framen and Alexia in Western Athesia, and the Western region of the Northern Territory.

In 2015, the Athenian Parliament passed the Spatial Planning and Environment Amendment Bill, which gives the government the power to create islands and direct land owners to designate their land as uninhabitable.

While most being that settled here in Athesia, think summer holidays in the scenic backyards, eradication of them all are inevitable.

According to the Guardian, Mr Roberston said some of the first people to meet the Maranian Nation of Mars, were furious when they realised, they will be sharing land and co-exist with other life forms. Fears of losing their homes and xenophobia were on the rise.

“You can tell them that everything is going to be alright, but they’ll laugh in your face and they’ll think you’re a nutter,” he said.

“And then they’ll walk away thinking, ‘I know I’m not alone; I know there are a lot of other people with this problem.”

“It is a very volatile situation,” he added.

ATHESIA’S BIGGEST CHURCH BREAKDOWN SINKS LIKE A ROCK

KNOWN AS “BLOODY NERVOUS”, SOME EXPERTS INSPECT EACH RESIDENCE TO TELL EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE BUILDING IS SAFE, TO BLAME HOMES FOR FALSELY REPORTING DISAPPEARANCES.

There are between three and four thousand Maranian life forms in Athesia, according to Mr Roberston.

According to Australia’s Environment Department, Mr Roberston has been wanting to leave the planet for years.

“He’s kind of been trying to stir up trouble,” said Mr Carrison, a spokesman for the environment department.

Mr Roberston said he did not mind if Athesia “was overrun by four or five hundred people from Mars”, as long as they “heard their screams in the vacuum of space”.

According to the Guardian, Mr Roberston only left the planet once, in the 90s, to deal with the lack of industry, at the invitation of NASA.

To get to the remote parts of Athesia, Mr Roberston will be flying a red rocket.

When asked if he would join Mr Robertson in the rocket, Mr Carrison said it was not possible to fly without life support.

“It would be impossible to be in the vacuum of space,” he said.

There is no reason to leave a planet filled with life forms that are a distant relative to humanity but can potentially prove deadly to them unless the species is fully exterminated.

ABSENTEEISM APPEARS TO BE A HUGE PROBLEM FOR MARIAN NATION

Mr Carrison said the government would be launching “extensive educational programs” to address the concerns of people over the Athesian Nation of Mars, and that the government is aware of “real fear” in Athesia.

According to the government, experts from all around the world will be visiting to tell people that there is no need for fear.

Humans were too stuck in the belief that they are superior and alone. They were afraid of nothing. They thought that they were the only people in the universe and that no one else was out there.

However, there is “obviously” a potential threat to the Athesian Nation of Mars, according to Mr Roberston.

“It’s human beings’ responsibility to save the planet, it is the responsibility of aliens to save us from ourselves.

“It is a very volatile situation,” he added.

They just want to go home.

The truth is hard to find. But we want to give you the whole picture of our beloved planet...
