The rapidly developing and worsening crisis in Haven had, of course, not escaped Tocrowkian eyes and ears. While the Reich was currently neutral in the conflict, not even going as to make an official statement, the upper echelons in the government knew this could not last forever.

Not only was the fear that a war involving so many great powers could potentially spill out of haven and encompass the Reich's own lands in it's battlefield, but Tocrowkia herself was a member of the Questarian, and with the strength the Reich possessed, morally and legally obliged to step in sooner or later.

However, Steward Mahone was weary of jumping the gun and costing thousands of Tocrowkian lives needlessly. A compromise was arranged, in which a token force of Tocrowkian troops would move into a mutually allied nation to strengthen their home garrison. Not only would it look good to the public, but it would keep Tocrowkians out of harms way. For now, at the very least.

The nation chosen was Zukariaa. Though the Reich had little relationship with this nation in the past, culturally they were similar enough that a large force of Tocrowkians would integrate well with the local population. With that in mind, a highly encrypted and secretive message was sent to The Empire of Zukariaa.

To: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Zukariaa

Greetings. We have of course heard of the worsting crisis in Haven. As we are allied to the The Questarian Empire, the time approaches where we our selves must enter this conflict. Before that, however, we would like to reinforce your nation with a expeditionary force of our own troops, to help you garrison your homeland and protect against potential invasion. We of course require your permission for such an act, but can assure you we have no ulterior motive other than the preservation of our allies sovereignty.

IMPERIAL PALACE, TERAN, ZUKARIAA
It was 3:30AM, and when a messenger marched into the Emperor's personal study to find him sleeping, getting drool on a pad of paper, it created a slightly awkward situation. The study had obviously been used more than usual, likely by up to a dozen people. The last day had been a hard day on everyone in the Imperial Palace. Some had been on the verge of passing out only halfway through the day from work fatigue. The messenger tapped the Emperor's desk.

"Sir, an important message has just reached us," the messenger tapped again, this time waking the Emperor,"Sir, an important message just came in from the nation 'Tocrowkia'."

The Emperor shook off the sleep in his eyes. The last day suddenly rushed into his mind and woke him from his stupor,"Right, right. Let me see it," he said,"I hope this is important. Tomorrow is another big day."

Tomorrow was indeed a big day; the Emperor's wedding day to the Questarian Princess Mihoko, to be exact. A quick read through of the message and the Emperor dictated his response to the Tocrowkians in between yawns.

"Permission to bring garrison troops granted. If you need any assistance with bringing said troops to Zukariaa unharmed, please inform us. We will be happy to escort." the Emperor sent the messenger off with the message and went to his own room, where his bride-to-be waited for him.

The message was sent to the Tocrowkian Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately.
