Debrief at HMS York

[Victor Steiner]

They arrived just outside the conference room when she had asked about the war, he sighed and placed his hand on the door handle before looking at her with an exhausted look You'd better come in.. he said holding the door open.

The room was fairly standard, two Bretonian flags on poles were in the corners, a holographic projector was in the center of the room, which in turn was ringed by a circular oak table with the middle cut away. The western windows focused on Southampton and the debris field just beyond. He extended a hand to one of the various seats around the table and locked the door behind them before sitting down himself

Not good. Was the answer to her question. Leeds, Tau-31, Planet Harris, Edinburgh, Orkney and Magellan have all fallen. There is a Gallic battle group in Cortez, which the L.N.S Yukon is getting ready to have a show down with and now we hear there is a high concentration of Gallic fighter wings in the debris field just over there he said pointing towards Southampton. Planet Leeds is invaded, I don't know how they're holding out and to top it all off, we've lost our Fleet Admiral. This is the Front line miss Brooks, this vessel represents the Bretonian Front, the Government has been evacuated to Cambridge and a general mobilization order has been issued on New London. However, the Queen has refused to leave the capital, which has done a world of good for moral, but...even then. he stopped talking to catch his breath and gage her reaction to this somewhat appalling state of affairs.
