State Chancellery, Haldor, Kingdom of Dorvik
State Chancellor Jörn von Motha-Geyr walked next to Oberst Cäsar Kraus, a senior adjutant from the State Chancellery Military Office who was assigned to the Einsatzzentrale (lit. Operations Center; often translated to Luthorian as "Emergency Operations Center") within the State Chancellery building. The Einsatzzentrale provided the State Chancellor and others with a hive for military, security and intelligence that connected to the various tendrils of the Dorvish Kingdom's massive defense and security apparatus. It was largely staffed by members of the State Chancellery Military Office and the State Security and Defense Council and associated personnel from different branches. "What do you mean they hit the embassy?" The State Chancellor exclaimed as he was handed the security documents marked with a large red stamp on the top of the folder noting GEHEIM which was Dundorfian for "secret" and the highest classification for documents within the Dorvish Kingdom. Oberst Kraus informed the State Chancellor that the Dorvish embassy in Suyu Llaqta had been attacked by rockets fired from the back of technicals; he informed him that the Revolutionary Front for the Liberation of the Suyuese (RFLS) had claimed responsibility for the attack online shortly after the attack commenced. It's leader, Siwazuri Hanif was a former officer in the Suyuese Defense Forces who had turned rogue after issues of payments to the military and became the nations leading warlord. Hanif had significant training and was a beloved commanding officer, he took a decent swathe of the Suyuese Defense Forces with him when he left and that was something the Dorvish operations in Suyu Llaqta had focused on hampering but the operations slowed down when Hanif and the RFLS went underground for several years.
As the State Chancellor entered into the Einsatzzentrale a loud voice rang out "Achtung! prompting all the officers and officials to stand at attention. "At ease." The State Chancellor waved his hand and sat down. His attention turned to the Minister of Defense and Inspector-General of the Armed Forces General-Admiral Stefan Katze. "Herr Staatskanzler...nearly 15 minutes ago the RFLS claimed the attack on our embassy in the capital of Suyu Llaqta, Niederung. The attack was likely shoulder launched rockets from the back of technicals. It appears from aerial footage and local CCTV feeds that 10-15 technicals surrounded the embassy and launched a number of rockets, roughly 20-30 rockets. They drove off in various directions. The security teams were unable to return fire. Initial reports state that 15 are dead, mostly Dorvish citizens, several dozen wounded and the building has damage--" The General-Admiral was interrupted by the State Chancellor. "An the ambassador?" The State Chancellor continued to look through reports, images and the like. "General-Plenipotentiary Asser Schott is safe. He was at the Presidential Palace with Vice President and the Prime Minister during the attack, he is secured there until we can send assistance." The General-Admiral reported. Another voice piped up, it was the voice of General-Director Wolfhard Kracht, the head of the Foreign Intelligence Service. "Herr Staatskanzler we are already receiving reports of more RFLS groups on the move. We believe that this is part of a wider effort against the Dorvish in the country." The State Chancellor folded his hands on the table and sighed. "Dispatch the Verranderlijke Ocean Fleet. We'll let them handle it before we bring in the two Kaisers." The State Chancellor had dispatched the Verranderlijke Ocean Fleet, the smallest fleet in the Dorvish Navy but largely relegated to duties in East Dovani and its commanding officer, Admiral Kuno Ochs had been a veteran of several peacekeeping missions in East Dovani.
"I want updates every hour. I'll be in the office." The State Chancellor stood and exited the room; simultaneously everyone else stood and as he departed began picking up telephones and handing off orders to adjutants and assistants.
