Unconventional Warfare

[Querious]

"My name is Albert Weis, Generaloberst of Die Weiße Rose, and seeker of truth for almost five decades."

Albert Weis woke in a dizzy haze. He heard a million voices, and as he rose, he heard none. Weis recognized the room he was in as the medical facility on Bruchsal, only much more crowded. Suddenly, he hears one voice. "Are you awake, Herr Weis?" Albert simply gave a thumbs up, an ancient gesture of affirmation. As he slowly woke, he heard what he had known recited to him in the past tense. Then, the voice continued, as he gained sight of its owner.

"After you and Soldat Einfalt over there were incapacitated, the hostile marines were quickly dispatched by loyal members. Unfortunately, there were grave losses during the battle
"

The anticipation was almost palpable. "Many have gone missing, including our Generaloberst, Stefanie von Falkneberg."

This single line set off thousands of alarms in Albert's head. Falkenberg was leader of Die Weiße Rose. Her disappearance would no doubt mean that a new leader had to be chosen. But, before he could ponder this, the activist told him, "You've been out for 17 days. In that time, we've had no leads on who attacked, but we did root out a few spies. They could provide us nothing." A pause. "But, there might be *one* positive in all of this. Albert Weis, we remaining Weiße Rose aktivists have decided to take Stefanie's recommendations to heart, and have appointed you to Generaloberst."

There was only pure shock, then there was comprehension once more. "Is this true?" The others in the room affirmed the activist's bold claims, and slowly helped Weis out of the medical bed. Over the course of the next two hours, Weis would re-orient himself and slowly realize the fact that he was now the deciding factor in this long war in Rheinland. There was but one purpose Weis had on his mind now. As he stared at his inactive lab in his bunk room, he said, "Rheinland will be liberated: For the millions who've died, and billions who've suffered. I will avenge them."
