Prelude to the Conflicts

April 30th, 1938.

At the Royal Palace of Triesenberg. Emperor Triesenberg

General Wilhelm Krieger was standing in front of the ornate door of the Emperor's office. He signaled to the guards who were standing on either side, and they promptly opened the door. The general took a deep breath, straightened his uniform, and stepped inside.

He found the Emperor seated behind a large mahogany desk, seemingly sifting through a stack of papers. The room was quiet, with only the soft rustling of the documents breaking the silence. The Emperor looked up as General Krieger entered, his expression serious but calm.

"General Krieger," the Emperor greeted, his tone neutral. "What news do you bring?"

Wilhelm Krieger marched forward, stopping in front of the desk. He saluted crisply before speaking.
