"So uhm, Field Marsha... I-i mean, Empress Freida." Shaltear von Kreel stuttered.
"Please," Freida said with a smile, "Heersmarshal, call me Freida. And I'll call you Shaltear?"
"Of course, thank you your, I mean... thank you Freida." Shaltear stuttered. After Freida first saw Shaltear she wanted to get to know her better, during the Perserkrieg Shaltear was fighting in the northern front so Freida did not know her that well, but Shaltear was now the highest ranking female officer in the German army. She had long silver hair that she had dyed red at the ends. She wore a double-breasted black uniform with gold acsents: the standard uniform of a German Marshal, however Shaltear also wore a fur overcoat, over her uniform. She had worked alot with the recently appointed, Colonel Sharpe, which is why Wilhelm gave her juristiction over the special forces. She had also commanded a German mountain division during the latter years of the Peserkreig.
"So, I presume you have plans for a wedding?" Shaltear asked, trying to perpetuate the conversation.
"Yes, it is all very exciting." Freida squeeled, while smiling uncontrolably. "Me and Wilhelm have chosen Ida to be the wedding planner. She is head of the civil service and an expert organiser, we have both told Ida what we want from the wedding and she is now in the process of planning it. Wilhelm has chosen Aires to be the best man, however both Charlotte and Bernadette have turned down the position of best maid, because they want to stay by my side as bridesmaids. That is why, I ask if you would like the opportunity to be my right hand?"
"Me? A-are you sure?" Shaltear stuttered.
"Of course, you've commanded troops in the field. Surely you can help Aires and Ida with wedding planning? After all, no one has better organisational skills than a marshal of the Wehrmacht." Freida insisted.
"If that is your wish, I will do it." Shaltear agreed.
"Thank you Shaltear, that means alot." Freida said greatfully. "I trust we can continue to meet together?"
"Of course, Freida." Shaltear said with a smile, and Freida chuckled. At that point a series of knocks were heard on the door to Freida's sitting room. Freida permitted the callers to enter, both Charlotte and Bernadette came inside. They had new uniforms, while still keeping the overall design of the normal hussar uniform, the colours had been changed to a regal white with golden acsents. They both held their busbys in their hands, and clicked their heels when they entered.
"Please sit down you both." Freida asked, and they both did as asked. "You will be pleased to hear that Shaltear has agreed to be my best maid."
"Congratulations." Charlotte said calmly. "While we would'be have liked to take up the role, we want to make sure Freida here is ok, we also do not want to miss anything."
"Yeah!"Bernadette exclaimed warmly. "I'm really excited, and when the babies come, I'll be auntie Bernadette!" Everyone chuckled at Bernadette's remark.
