A Grand Funeral

Immediately after Eckhard's death, Berengar began preparations for the man's funeral. He would not spare a single expense in ensuring that the entirety of the German Empire mourned the loss of his greatest friend. 

Before long, the leaders of the Reich, had gathered once more in Kufstein, specifically within its Grand Cathedral to mourn the passing of one of its greatest heroes. The sad truth of the matter was that most people paid their respects to Berengar's parents, simply because of the fact that they were his parents. 

Their greatest act in life was raising Berengar to be the world's greatest leader. But Eckhard was different. His actions had changed world history and had deliberately led to the creation of the German Empire.
