It was a relatively calm day in the Eastern District. Theater commander Besten Herin was sitting in his office and doing what he did best, not doing the backlog of paperwork he was required by the TCDC to do. Instead he was sitting at his desk scrolling through kreddit, Teprors most popular social media platform on K/gaming just trolling the games he deems "casual nerds".
As the missile comes raining down and makes impact on a small skimtari city, the cry to his office was almost immediately sent out, a messenger was dispatched from the radio room. "SIR, SIR, NEWS FROM THE-" He was cut off almost immediately by Besten, who wasn't looking up from his computer. "Tell the TCDC that the paperwork takes time and they should expect slow results with the amount that's put on our plates thank you." He waves the messenger off and continues to troll the sub-kreddit.
"No sir its not that, although you might have your membership revoked if you dont fill it out- anyways." The messenger walks up and puts the paper on the table. "Sir... were being attacked." This causes Besten to stop his trolling and look at the messenger, "So, just to be clear, we are under attack, which if true, means I can burn all this paperwork because we are at a state of war?" "Yes."
Besten quickly logs out of kreddit and stands up, fixing his uniform and walking out. "Summon my officers, and get the troops ready..." He quickly rushes out of his office, but them peaks his head back in. "Also don't tell the TCDC till its too late, this is a rapid response action." Then he runs to his war room.
In a few minutes all of the officers are in his War Room, its a bit scrunched, some people having to literally shove just to see whats going on, Besten stands in the middle of it all Infront of his table, waiting for everyone to file in. "Thanks for coming, I know you were all doing your paperwork for the TCDC, as was I clearly. Anyways, we have a missile attack on the town of Breakrock, granted it was on the outskirts and no causalities or property damage was made, but its still an attack so what I plan on doing is summoning the 15, 28, and 101 army group, bomb the hell out of the border region, and burn the capitol to the ground, questions?"
He looks around, and before anyone even thought of a question he quickly claps his hands and grows a huge grin. "Great, we will move in T-whenever y'all get your army groups ready, remember speed is key, so keep your army groups organized and burn everything." The officers just sigh as they give a salute and slowly file out. "Why is that guy the Theater Commander? He just seems like a lazy hot head." Asks one of the younger officers in the room, then one of the more senior officers chimes in. "During the First Civil war hes the one who lead the assault on Silversun Fortress, AKA one of the most heavily fortified positions in central pythia, and what's funner is Silversun was probably more fortified than the ministry, or so people claim."
