After a year of upheaval, both Strawberry Duchy and Feathisia Duchy were now fallen under the control of the forces of the Griffonian Empire ruled by the Imperial Regent Archon Eros. In an accordance with the personal order from Archon Eros himself, the Imperial forces took great priority in capturing Duke Gerlach of Feathisia and Duchess Gabriela Eagleclaw of Strawberry Duchy alive no matter the cost. And even before the Empire could fully reclaim their respective duchies, both the Duke and the Duchess were captured in a secret hideout located within the remaining territories of eastern Feathisia by the Imperial agents. While expecting a severe punishment by the agents, Duke and Duchess were shocked when they learned that Archon Eros was waiting for them in the Imperial Capital of Griffenheim. A week later, they arrived in Griffenheim under heavy escort.
