The Ascendancy to visit USA
The CCD and USA have started a constructive dialogue toward the goal of a world without terrorism, a stronger global economy, and peace and stability in South America. To facilitate these mutual goals, the Moscow Kremlin officially confirmed today that the Ascendancy will travel to Washington DC for a three-day summit. Sources close to the Kremlin report both the Canadian Prime Minister and Mexican President will also be in attendance. The Ascendancy's last visit to USA soil was twelve years ago.
Critics state the Summit is poorly timed what with the USA's proud construction of two new nuclear power plants: one already running in Southern Georgia, while the second, near Dayton, Ohio, should become fully operational next month. Proponents state the Summit is a chance to demonstrate American independence from CCD energy, proclaim the future of cleaner energy, and celebrate American ingenuity.
However, the market predicts the relationship between the CCD domestic supply of fossil fuels with foreign marketplaces may deteriorate if the trend toward nuclear power continues. Despite safety concerns, three more nuclear reactors are set to open in the next five years in the United States. To cement the Ascendacy's support of the initiative, Moscow has proposed the Summit take place in Dayton, the heartland of America.

Time to pick up the pieces
A call is placed between the Ascendancy and the President of the USA wherein the CCD announces formally reintroducing legislation to the US Congress proposing annexation. This call is "accidentally" hacked and the behavior of both leaders gain world-wide attention. The US president is wrapped in scandal.
Signals and shards
Plot summary
There was an international energy summit in the town of Dayton, Ohio. In the night following the Summit's conclusion, a catastrophic nuclear accident occurred which effectively rendered half of the state of Ohio a danger zone. Deaths were immediate. Thousands are estimated to succumb to radiation sickness. The nature of this disaster has spawned the US to rethink its nuclear energy policies. Pro-CCD groups within the US are calling for annexation.
