The following day, the corridors of the Imperial Palace echoed with a quiet intensity as Emperor Alfonso convened a meeting with the Director of the Royal Intelligence Agency, Armand. The room, adorned with intricate designs that mirrored the empire's rich history, set the stage for a discourse that delved into the shadows of international intrigue.

Alfonso, seated at the head of a polished mahogany table, awaited the director's report with a stoic expression. Armand, a man of calculated movements and a keen mind, entered the room, acknowledging the emperor with a respectful nod.

"Your Excellency," Armand began, "allow me to provide an update on the situation in the United States following the untimely demise of President Roosevelt."

Emperor Alfonso inclined his head, signifying Armand to proceed.
