My brother and my friends, we must remain reconciled.

Fritz, you must realize that if Magdeburg fell and Dieter and Tancred died, regardless of your feud, it would be a grave loss for Franconia and to the entire Reich.

Thus, I will recruit three regiments of Teutonic Knights, the brethren that have served me and Ansehelm before me so well, and attack the Danes. Fritz, I would ask you to join me, but ensure that any cities in Franconia are properly garrisoned against riot prior to departing.
