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!
The Death of Apis
Things had been going poorly for the Black Hand ever since they first began targeting Bruno and his family. At least twenty-five percent of their leadership had either vanished or met a grisly and mysterious end.
No doubt somebody was targeting them all. In a way, it was their karma coming back to them for all the evil they had done both in this life and the one Bruno had come from. Currently, Dragutin Dimitrijević, better known by the name of Apis, was at a port in what would one day become the independent nation of Croatia.
He was looking at his ticket and passport carefully, as well as any other information he had, all of which was a false identity. He had taken rather extreme lengths to conceal his identity, going so far as to grow a full beard, permanently scar his face, and even wear an eyepatch over one eye.
