章節 751: Another Gifted Heir

Field Marshal Heimerich von Graz stood across from the Kaiser in the Imperial Palace. The two men were currently within Berengar's study discussing a matter of great importance, one that was of the utmost secrecy. Heimerich was the older brother of the Empress Adela, and had served as the Field Marshal of Berengar's Royal Guard for several years. 

What was initially a small unit of elite troops designed to protect Berengar from threats had expanded over the years into an Army of its own. By now, an entire corps existed within the ranks of the Reichsgarde, also known as the Imperial Guard. While the Imperial German Army was the Nation's premier land based defense force whose loyalty was to the German Empire, the Reichsgarde existed as the personal armed force of the Kaiser and, by extension, the von Kufstein dynasty.
