Capital city of Verdant Glades Kingdom.
"Your majesty this is bad, the noble in eastern realm of our kingdom began rebellion and they defect with Pinnacle Republic."
The news struck the king like a thunderbolt. He sat in his throne room, surrounded by his advisors, his expression grave as he processed the information.
"Rebellion? Defection to the Pinnacle Republic?" King Richard II voice was heavy with concern.
"What about General Augustus and army with his 100.000 soldier on his command? they still not able to recapture Ember Ridge Barony?"
The advisor shook his head, confirming the king's worst fears. "Unfortunately, your majesty, General Augustus and his forces have suffered a humiliating defeat in their attempt to retake Ember Ridge Barony."
"The Pinnacle Republic's latest military technology was able to stop their siege, it's something like magic that was able to wipe out our soldier in a second."
"And the reason the nobles are defecting is because they resent our decision to conscript half their private army, and after the General was defeated in his attempt to retake Ember Ridge Barony, they began to doubt our ability to protect their interests."
King Richard II's brow furrowed with concern as he absorbed the situation " I only had 40.000 soldier left i don't think they able to retake the eastern realm."
"And the Pinnacle Republic is not our only enemy. The Kingdom of Frost is also eyeing our northern border, and they have a powerful alliance with the Empire of Dawn."
The king sighed, feeling the weight of his crown. He knew he had to act fast, or his kingdom would fall apart. He looked at his advisors, hoping for some guidance.
"We must prioritize securing our borders and regaining control of our territories," King Richard II declared, his voice resolute. "Gather what troops we have left and bolster our defenses along the eastern realm. We cannot allow the rebellion to spread any further."
Suddenly, another messenger arrives with the bad news that the heretic lord of the Barony of Oscana is already razing Emberwood County to the ground. "Your Majesty, Baron Gareth and his fellow heretics are already razing Emberwood County to the ground, and the Church of Light is unable to defeat them."
"Now Countess Maresha is taking refuge in the Barony of Crimson Haven with her people, she is asking us for help.
King Richard II furious after heard another bad news "Fucking bastard!" King Richard II's anger flared at the news of Baron Gareth's actions. He clenched his fists, his expression darkening with fury.
He wants to deal with Oscana Barony but cannot to do so, as he lacks the manpower and resources to fight on multiple fronts.
He decides to send a letter to Countess Maresha, promising her his support and asking her to hold on until he can send reinforcements.
He also asking help to the Church of Light to mobilize their holy knights and priests to combat the heretics.
He hopes that this will buy him some time to deal with the other enemies.
