Message from Jonas Von Mahren arrives in the Diet.

The word of Duke Leopolds death have reached me.Death in victory.A most worthy end for a Duke Of the Reich. It seems that death visits us regularly these days.Loss of a friend is always hard to bare. The old guard is almost gone,all that remains is the Kaiser. My condolences to Kaiser Henry for loosing a brother,To the new Duke of Austria for loosing a father and to Leopolds wife for loosing a husband.And to the Reich for loosing its best general. I raise a toast to you Leopold as you surely now watch us from heaven.

Count of Magdeburg, Jonas Von Mahren
