~An Imperial Reservist heading towards Providence to answer the call, circa 1812~

The Imperial War Office calls upon all loyal citizens of the Empire to take heed!

Pressing times within our Empire demand that those who love their homeland answer the call for war and join the battle for the future of Oren. With the insurrectionists of Sedan having made their unjust cause clear, the War Office now calls upon the reservists of the Imperial State Army to mobilize for the war effort and share the spoils of victory over the Sedanites. All who have been signed on as Imperial Reservists since the founding of the Reserve Army are considered active-duty until the call for demobilization has been made.

Reservist soldiers shall be required to head to the Imperial Bastion and contact an officer to be given a rank, equipment, and rations. A uniform will also be provided for those not already committed to an Imperial Auxiliary Group. After being situated, Reservists shall await orders from a superior officer or the Army Reserve Captain, Sir Ledicort d’Azor, and be ready to undergo regular training and military operations.

The Emperor calls for you, Reservists. The time to show your strength in battle has come. Beat back the insurrectionists and revel in the opportunity to strike down yet another enemy of the Empire.

Volens et Potens!

Sir Erik Othaman

Lord-Commissar of the Imperial State Army
 

Alexander d’Arkent

Chief of War Staff

"Dobrov" states Fiyem as he looks over the recent battlefield, seeing the bodies of decapitated goats that have littered the field and water's edge.

Garret Darkwood looks at the letter, he then gets up from his desk in the ministry of justice and hangs up his blue lawman uniform. Picking up a red ISA uniform and sharpening his sword, "Garret Darkwood, reporting for duty SIR" he says while walking into the bastion presenting a crisp salute to the nearest officer.

Sigismund joins the many other reservists making their way to Providence to be activated for war. Perhaps he could find meaning in his life through service to his Empire.

Upon Valent being informed by his excellency, the Solicitor-General... He would prepare himself for the war. "Death to the traitors!"

Sir Ledicort d’Azor would dawn the colors of red and gold once again as he would exit his home — headed towards the Bastion. “Let us begin” the returning Captain would whisper as he continued.

Mayor A.S.H. would read over the missive with a frown on his face and a little quiver coming to his eye. Anxiety was very much apart of his current career but it had lower stakes then what was being suggested in this notice. He would gulp and reach for his journal to jot down some thoughts on his current feelings.

 

Dear Diary,

Myself being a reservist in the I.S.A. makes the notice today give me some small tremors. My duties so far in the army have involved collection of resources and attending the drinking nights at the cozy Novellen. I am sure when I have to report to the campaign to shear the sheep that I will be thinking back fondly to reading a book fireside at the Halcourt Manor. This war does personally give me some anxiety for my own safety and well being as well as future political prospects. How can I run for a third term if I am gravely wounded or killed? I do recognize our Empire needs to corral these runaway livestock back into their pen. Maybe there will be a discount at the Kebab Cart in Providence upon return. I stop by there pretty frequently for lunch. Maybe a 'buy one get one half off' kebab special will be something to look forward to. I remember the last time I was at the palace for dinner the Emperor smiled at me and asked me how I was doing. That was a good feeling to be able to engage with such a nice fellow. If he can muster up the courage to join the fight, who am I to decline his call? However, I do not think the anxiety will go away about my own personal safety. I would hate to think what they would do to me if I fell into their hands. I am much too old to be recruited into their army. Not of impressionable age.

After completing his latest mission, and taking a well deserved coffee break at Café Milano in Providence, J. Fitzpeter arrives at the bastion for his artillery officer commission.

"... in addition to economics, yes, I am also educated in mathematics, physics..."
