Moral Compass
(Meanwhile Julien D Evanus)
Lately, every letter Julien received seemed to carry grim news, as the demons seemed to be advancing on all fronts.
It wasn't just the Eastern Front where the demons had made progress as they were also seen capturing border villages on the Western Front and although no major towns had fallen yet, the situation was indeed dire.
In the border regions, evacuated commoners had begun spreading stories about spotting demons and expressed growing concern for the Empire's future, contributing to the rising unrest.
Swift to act after his previous emergency meeting, Julien had already sent warning letters to the Dukes, urging them to reinforce major towns and prepare for a full-scale demon assault.
However, the letter he received today was particularly alarming as it confirmed his worst fears.
