Castle Scharf, Thuringen

Herr Dietrich Scharf waited in the Hall of his palace. The room is of ancient construction built into the rock of the Scharf Mountain. This was the first room built, and as the Scharf House grew. The door opened and the man he was waiting for stepped in.

“Is that you My Crown Prince? It is good of you to come see me.” Dietrich said beckoning the man to a chair across from him.

The Crown Prince sat down and removed his hat exposing his young face.

“I have been gathering support for my cause, the Dukes of Thuringen and Ebeneburg have already joined me. Surely you agree that we will have an next Ministerpräsident?”

“You want me and my Royal Father to support you? Who are you pressing for? You poor son?”

“No no. Heinrich is working with you royal father. Besides he has no desire for such a position and he is much more suited for the Army than the Parliament.” Dietrich continued. “My Daughter Helmina will be our new Ministerpräsident, you remember her don’t you?

"Yes, I do..."

In one of that salons above him, the domestic staff prepared the room, where they checked over the room, making sure it was meticulous for the new Ministerpräsident's arrival. As the car of the Helmina made its way into the courtyard, one of the servants opened the door as the car slowed down. Lothar soon prepared himself, and made his way to the door to greet Mrs. Scharf.

"Ministerpräsident, It's an pleasure to meet you, I'm Minister Lothar." Lothar said looking to young woman that was chosen to rule Wiefel.

"Herr Lothar, of House...?" asked Helmina.

"I'm not of any Noble House, I'm son of of Dr. Von Hergst, President of the Royal Hospital" Lothar said.

"Oh... Herr Lothar, and you are an Minister? Interesting" smiled Helmina

"Ministerpräsident, could I show you Schloss Steinhäusser?"

"No, I can do it..."
