Location: Great Muan Desert, Republic of Mu
14th August, 1633, 8:00 AMA large plane with two engines on its wings slowly lands on a sand-covered concrete runway, the propeller blades coming to a slow stop. The heating sun shines on the plane's concrete surface and metallic body. A group of men and women exit the plane in a fashionable manner.
Their armbands indicated that they are one of the highest-ranking officers within the Muish military. After noticing it, the guards and bystanders are quick to salute them.
"This place is more neat than I initially thought."
"You wouldn't expected to find this kind of well-built base within the desolate desert."
Each of them is making a comment or conversing with each other about the appearance of this desert base. Looking around, they notice many yellow vehicles that blend in with the sand. A particular man dressed in khaki uniform, shorts, and a 1620 service hat. He approached to greet them.
"Hello, Prime Minister."
"Greetings, General"
They shake hands with one another. A symbol of friendship and peace. It's a rare moment of peace in a war.
"How have you been doing?" Prime Minister gently asked Rover.
"I'm doing good, Prime Minister. I guess the same could be said for you."
He chuckled and sighed aloud. The Prime Minister looks at the ground and slowly says the inevitable response to General Rover.
"I will resign from office this year. People have been getting angry about how I handled this war... I don't think I have the will to hold this position anymore."
"I know the stress that has been pressing on you very well. I will make sure to visit you from time to time after this war ends." Rover places his hand on Prime Minister's shoulder.
"Sure, that's what friend do right?"
Rover points a thumb behind his back, directing them to the desert base headquarters. It is a concrete structure like any other; it is colorless and does nothing to conceal its presence. Soldiers stop what they are doing and salute them. When they enter the building, they are greeted with a bright light from fluorescent bulbs. The sounds of typewriters, various types of machinery, and telephones echo throughout the building.
The sound of light bulbs hums in their ears, they look left and right to see plants decorated in the halls. Giving the building, atleast, some pleasant feeling.

Rover walks down to the building's underground level, where the strategic rooms are located, and shouts as he enters.
"Salute the Prime Minister!"
Everyone salutes the man in the uniform; they throw their right arm and hand up into the air at a certain angle, the fingers closed and touching one another.
"At ease!" He ordered.
They lower their hands, and the majority of the people in the room are dressed in the Muish Desert Corps' traditional khaki uniform. Looking back at the large, flat image on the wall: a map of the great desert with intricate details.
Gra Valkan presence in the desert poses a threat in and of itself. Looking back, the next point of entry for opening another front is at the Great Tower of Endless Unity, one of Mu's most significant historical structures.
