Despite being the only party in Dundorf with its own security personnel, and well over 20,000 men strong, Eike Schäfer made the decision to relocate to a temporary headquarters in Karlsborn, in the northwestern state of Gayern. The Steindorf family had already relocated not long after Ernst's injury, and it was likely that the rest of the party would do the same at some point. However, in an emergency meeting of the Zentralkomitee, upon a heated discussion, an agreement was made that would see their headquarters be kept under strict watch by a staff of over 100 security workers. Schäfer stated that the de-facto chief of the Sicherheitskräfte would be Tobias Geissler, the former Bundesstaatpräsident of Grozvic Muzelbergen. Schäfer saw it fitting, as it was learned that Geissler had worked for a security firm several years ago, prior to his membership in the VKPD. Geissler was then given a uniform to fit his new title, but with insignia similar to that of a general. Reporters first saw of this when he gave a speech outlining the security measures for the building, which Neues Dundorf was able to attend.
Chief Geissler, adorned with several medals and awards he has earned for his meritorious service to the party, conducts a speech on the security measures the party headquarters will undergo, with Schäfer observing.
"Genossen, I am happy that you appointed me as Chief of the Sicherheitskräfte. I will do my best to make sure this building is safe from intrusion by terrorist threats. First and foremost, the building, after all members of the Zentralkomitee have been relocated, and all party members are in safe locations, will go into a lockdown state. All 3 floors of the building will be staffed by 20 men each. The outside perimeter will also be staffed by 20 men. Patrols will be conducted hourly, with shift changes after 3 patrols. The men outside will be equipped with tasers and batons, as well as mace. The men inside will be equipped with just tasers and batons. If an intruder has been made it past the outdoor personnel and into the building, the intruder will be contained by the personnel on the floor they are on. No other personnel may funnel down or up to where the incident has been reported. We need any and all available men assigned to each floor, with absolutely no gaps in security personnel. Such a fluke could be disastrous for the building. If a bomb has been detected, we will consult with local police departments on the issue and work to contain it, and disarm it as quickly as possible. Those are the security measures. Let us work swiftly to usher our party to a safer location, and work even harder to protect our building."
After his speech, reporters were told to leave the building, as the transfer of control from the party to its security forces was in effect. Neues Dundorf will be sure to keep the public as up-to-date as possible on the status of the building.
