It was not long after consummating his marriage with Erika that Erich soon found himself once more answering the call to war. In the time since Yumi was first resurrected within the borders of the Germanic Star-Empire, the civil war that waged in the borders of her homeland had escalated quite drastically.
As a result, the entirety of the Oni Military was now being withdrawn from their ongoing war with the Lutharian Ascendency, and instead being deployed to the home front to fight an increasingly organized and efficient insurgency.
The result of this was that the Germanic Navy was now responsible for holding the line against the Lutharian Ascendency. But this was a task which would require more than a grand total of the three fleets being deployed to the region. And because of this, Emrys had decided to withdraw from the conflict entirely, and instead send his forces to protect the borders between his allies and their enemies.
