The Eisenreich

Within the two years the party has been missing — and following the death of Ali bin Marwa — political tensions between Zahraiyah and the Eisenreich have become much worse. Both nations are on the verge of war over a deposit of minerals beneath the city of Nurilah.

Emperor Placus yae Holdus claims that the Al-Maksur, the recently reinstated devil-hunting order, is actually an attempt by the current Acting Caliph to consolidate power and form a secret police, and therefore must be dissolved. The Eisenreich frames its mobilization as a peacekeeping operation to prevent a loyal ally from entering a regime of oppression.
