A Saletsian officer marches into the Presidential Palace with every guard presenting arms as he passes. Then he stands before a great door opened by two elite guards while another two present their arms.
He enters and a woman dressed in military attire greets him:
"Ah good morning General Rade."
The general salutes before speaking.
"Excellence, you want to speak me?"
"Yes indeed. I want to inquire on the actions of our military at the moment. Have my orders been followed and put into action?"
"Yes, Excellence. Our AWACS planes fly day and night to make sure our skies are watched. And additional F5Ts patrol our skies as immediate interceptors until our better fighters can come along. Our forces are also in Uichi Ryu and Llanydern and helping for preparations. The factories are building rockets with cluster-bomb sub-munition as ordered."
"What about the Navy? The Chinese Loyalist State?"
"Our Navy also patrols their waters and so does our air-force. We also conduct joint-patrols and maneuvers to enhance our cooperative skills. I have to say the Loyalist fighter pilots have been able to create their own tactics which is good in simulated air-combat since our pilots learn how to adapt to new situations."
"What is happening in Eastern Easteros? I have heard of military engagement in the area?"
"Yes, your Excellence. There has been fighting between Mercantilist and an unknown forces. Though it seems as if these unknown forces are of Ozian origin. Do you want us to do something abut this matter?"
"No as long as the Mercantilists not push further West, this will be no issue for us.
Regarding another subject, I would like to have mines ready for coastlines not used by our ships, coastlines that may be a spot for enemy landing operations."
"I shall carry out that order right away, madame."
"I have heard rumors of a very dangerous killer in Umpas. What is being done to secure the people of that city?"
"All police forces have been mobilized and we have caught 11 suspects. As of now the killings stopped. But we have yet to make sure we got the right person."
"If you find him, I want him to be executed at the People's Plaza."
"As you wish. Any news on the Gaulesian war?"
"Well the LCF forces have started invading Gaulesia. Our navy patrols our waters to make sure none of the LFC navies use our waters to carry out their evil plans. In fact, the high alert also lead to the capture of several pirate ships and cargo."
"Very well."
"Oh there is one thing I wanted to say."
"What is it?"
"There is this new soldier in the South. She risked her life in a fire in a military base depot to save the life of her comrades. While all others tried to save themselves, she ran into the depot and made sure the chemical weapons were sealed off."
"A hero she is. Is she alive?"
"Yes but in hospital. Her condition is stable."
"Arrange a visit to her. Such deeds must be honored."
"I would appreciate to do so, Excellence."
"Have a nice day, General."
The General salutes again and leaves the conference room through the same door through which he entered a while ago.
