Islanders, Rise Up! Down With Aschente the Usurper!

COUNCIL OF 9 EMERGENCY BROADCAST. PLEASE REMAIN CALM.
OFFICIAL EMERGENCY BROADCAST FROM THE COUNCIL OF NINE
Attention Islanders... I don't have much time, so pay attention!

Our Minister of Immigration and Chief of Staff Aschente has used dark magic to stage a coup and seize control of the islands today, April 1st! (A completely uninteresting and not otherwise special day.) Aschentean forces have illegally taken the rest of the Council into custody, and they are rapidly approaching my location, but I must warn you first! The cages holding the rest of the Council (and probably me as well, soon enough) are all controlled by a key hidden amongst hundreds of decoys! It’s in a room booby trapped with a device designed to launch the keys across the islands, so whatever you do don't hit that-! *a distant explosion and violet flash suddenly erupts from the direction of Aschentes capital* Darn it! Someone has already tripped the device! You must find as many keys as you can to hopefully locate the correct one! Islanders, the fate of the Council is in your hands! We are counting on yo- *a crash is heard behind Pantso, and he is swiftly dragged away by Aschentean agents*

DISCLAIMER
April fools! Don't worry friends, no actual transitions of power have actually taken place and all council members, Lenlyvit included, have retained all of their positions and responsibilities. This April fools day scenario will be run for the next 24 hours. You may participate in the scenario as much (or as little) as you would like!

During this time, citizens of the islands registered on the forum will be able to participate in the forum "Cage Key Scavenger Hunt", but if you are not registered on the forum you may simply enjoy the day. Happy April Fools Day!

Maybe if we're really nice to Aschente, he'll simply release the council?

why do you want them released? Surely you aren't implying that you aren't enjoying my rule of the islands?

But what if we are mean to Aschente?

Hmm, I hadn't considered that.

This way, please! Remain in single file! These old unused bomb shelters will provide all the protection you need.
