100 THE 19TH ACCOUNT: BECKFORTH VS. FRANCUA 2

The Central Base of Defense was located half a mile east from the palace walls. Once we arrived, we were directed to the assembly hall immediately. The heads of the Royal Family were present: King Peter III, Queen Catherine, and the Crown Prince Bernard, as well as all the head generals and admirals. The Queen's task force was also present.

"Our spies had delivered their reports. Beckforth fleets surrounded our territorial waters finding unguarded openings if not making those openings by force," Admiral Fredo began.

"How many of our ports were claimed?"Crown Prince Bernard asked.

A five star general responded, "Three ports were successfully invaded and occupied and one border breached."

"Yesterday, they also overpowered the Northern Port," Sandlot reported.

The officials looked at him, "You are?" King Peter asked.

"Sandlot Geles, Your Majesties," he replied.

"What's your part in this war?" Crown Prince Bernard asked.
