Chaos through Confusion

On the flight deck of the HMS Illustrious, the Admiral of the Home Fleet, Sir George Callaghan stood along with his guards armed with bolt-action rifles. They waited on the deck for their visitors who will be coming from a fleet they had not expected, the Baltic Fleet.

Their intention of coming into the North Sea was justified but he wondered how they were able to get into their jurisdiction so fast. Are they conducting exercises near the North Sea, if that is the case, why are they doing so? Well, he knew the answer to that, Ruthenia Empire considered Britannia Empire as a potential adversary and thus led them to formulate a strategy around the North Sea to counter their dominance should the war between them erupt.

Not only that, the Deutschland Navy posed a threat to the Ruthenian Navy so, all the more reason to prepare.
