It was not long after Bruno had met with Heinrich and Erich that he forced the two men to sit together at a local pub. Hearing Heinrich pledge that he would let bygones and be bygones was one thing. But actually seeing it in person was another.
And though Bruno trusted Heinrich well enough to be a man of his word. If the two men were still going to talk about one another behind their backs, while not saying a word to each other until the war finally broke out, then what was the point of all this work?
Because of this, Bruno arranged for a meetup between the three of them where he would act as the mediator. By now, they had all consumed over a liter of beer. Which, for Bruno, was not enough to even catch a buzz. As for Heinrich and Erich, their alcohol tolerances were as different as their personalities.
