Badenburg, Gehenna
Office of the Archchancellor
The highest officials of the Gehennan Reich sat around the long wooden table which still appeared pristine despite it being from the late 13th century. At one end sat the Archchanellor and at the other sat the Kaiser. Between them at both sides sat the necessary ministers. The morning sun illuminated the room which had all of the modern luxuries situated among centuries-old paintings and artifacts.
"What does His Grace think?" asked the Minister of Finance.
Until this point the Kaiser had remained silent in the meeting. This was not unlike him, however. The Kaiser Josef II liked his ministers to do the talking while he listened and debated the points in his own head. The Kaiser of Gehenna still holds considerable power in the Reich but it has been the tradition to use this power sparingly as this has allowed the Kaiser to retain some power. If he so chose he could end this meeting and dissolve the Reichstag in order to block anything that could come from this email they were discussing. But Josef wouldn't think of doing something so chaotic, in fact he was supportive of it. "If I must weigh in then I support this proposed convention. My father, his father, and his father before that fought tirelessly to keep all aspects of Gehennan sovereignty, to hold onto our great past, and to hold onto our designs on the future." the Kaiser stopped talking and began to refill his glass of water before proceeding to take a sip. The room sat in complete silence as the Kaiser still held their undivided attention. "With each passing year Gehennas claims and designs on the content move further away as they pass well outside of living memory. Perhaps it is time that we allow ourselves to strengthen ties with the rest of the continent."
A couple of the ministers looked noticeably upset at the position of the Kaiser. Had the Kaiser sided with them they would have tied the room and given that the Kaiser would have sided with them, this would have ended there. Now, though, the supporters had a solid majority.
"I suppose that settles it then." Spoke Archchancellor Wiesel. "We will express our interest to the concerned parties."
