Re: Blood and Iron
Karl Wagner is a disgruntled middle-aged instructor at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College. He finds himself concerned about the direction which the German nation is headed in—just as he is killed by a terrorist attack. Only to awaken and find himself reborn as an infant, Bruno von Zehntner, the youngest son of a noble family renowned for its part in the German war industry a few years after the founding of the German Empire. Bruno, as he is now known, desires to rewrite history and ensure the German Empire emerges victorious in the coming century. And in doing so, finds himself entrenched in a world filled with Blood and Iron!
An Unfortunate Chain of Misunderstandings
It did not take long for Bruno to find himself greeted by some familiar faces—faces he had not seen in more than a few of years. By his count, it was close to five years since he had seen these people.
In such a large and magnificent palace, it was not uncommon for the entire extended royal family to dwell within it or at least gather very often. Japan was no exception, with the Emperor's sons, daughters, and grandchildren all living within his personal abode.
At the same time, whatever siblings and children he had were also present, probably as a show that he valued Bruno as a representative of his most powerful ally. Bruno spoke with various members of the Emperor's family, all of whom were as pleasant to him as they had been when he was awarded the Order of the Rising Sun all those years ago for his actions at Port Arthur.
