FROM: Vizeadmiral Hans Putzkammer
TO: GMG Leadership
Guild Master Taro Katsuo,
Greetings for the Republic of Rheinland, and its Military.
This declaration has come as something of a surprise to most in Rheinland. As you are well aware, the integrity and safety of the republic are our top priorities. The declaration of martial law from a sovrign such as yourself is noteworthy, especially sense we share borders. The Kanzler himself has instructed me to contact you in relation to this matter, and I shall be reporting back to him shortly.
There are several things to discuss, but one question must be answered first: What exactly is transpiring on our northern borders?
Rheinland Military High Command Officer, Vizeadmiral Hans Putzkammer
