As panic is about to broke out, magic telegrams we're broadcast throughout the country. "Wars.h.i.+ps from the United Kingdom are coming as reinforcements. I repeat, wars.h.i.+ps from the United Kingdom are coming as reinforcements for the current war effort. They're not enemies, but allies. Please calm down." the crowds was just about to explode into a ma.s.sive nightmare before the broadcast. if it hadn't for the broadcast, the country would be in huge chaos. William had told the White Palace earlier that he had received the call from the Royal Navy.

After, preparing the telegram. a face of a military bureaucrat meets them, "Boss, reinforcements from an unknown affiliation had arrived, estimating to be around 10,000 troops." but the bureaucrat underestimated the estimation and claimed its not going to be a threat. "But, they arrived in seemingly huge s.h.i.+ps" the spy replied, the Bureaucrats asked more details about it and was in disbelief about their reports. He didn't know what to do because he never had an encounter like this before. But, with his knowledge in the Empire's military a.r.s.enal. He knows, nothing will defeat the imperial army.

-- Imperial Court --

"Your Highness! the Grand Bishop refused our ultimatum!"

"Do all the means to subjugate them according to plan."

- It has been a week since ultimatums we're sent to all sides of the continent. Though, Britain didn't get one because few still know of their existence and location. The ultimatum received by the Grand Bishop of the Church was not amused. after conducting a meeting with the council, the council had concluded that war is inevitable and they might not win. But, the Grand Bishop won't surrender and he's willing to fight until the end. as the ultimatum's result had reached the emperor a hundred thousand imperial troops had leaved the empire, and marched all the way to the Theocracy of Esterloch, The Grand Bishop's state. As they march through every duchy, the various duchies immediately submitted to Imperial control after refusing the ultimatum. After the army had just razed the capital city of the duchy of Dulcis to the ground after they refused the imperial ultimatum, spreading fear throughout the continent and the southern sphere is now imminent to imperial control. As, the last stronghold in the region Osterloch find itself isolated from the fall of the Grand Ducal Confederation to the Empire. When Imperial troops are now in front of the city gates of Esterloch, the gates all closed and musket men, mages and cannons can be seen in the city walls. But, the well-disciplined army of the empire won't even be terrified and scared in this sight. They don't fear death and rather die for the honor of dying to the empire is better. As the imperial general sends the last ultimatum for the city's surrender, they mages had opened fire with a glare in their eyes. Saying, they won't accept the demands once again. And, as a last resort the Grand Bishop activated an ancient magic that enabled him to broadcast his message in the magic telegram to all over the continent. The magic telegrams we're then all connected to the continent's capitals and biggest cities. Explaining the imperial invasion of the Confederacy and their march and beginning siege of Esterloch. The Grand Bishop had then, declared a holy war against the empire. Encouraging all the faithful of the continent to unite and fight against the empire as they had strayed themselves from the G.o.d. Crowds from Sienna to Italica we're shocked by the sudden news and fears of another imperial invasion into summerwyn grew. The Great War had begun.
