"Have five months really passed by so quickly? Five months since we've lost you?" A certain shipgirl muses to herself as she stands near a plaque. "Yeah, it's me, King George V. You probably know me better as Georgie. I couldn't help but visit, and I just wanted to know I still miss you so much..."
Here lies Jack
A valiant commander of the Royal Navy
The bane of the Sirens and friend to all
1985-2019
May he rest in peace
"I think we're all still hurting inside, even the least bit." A very German sounding voice says as Georgie turns around to see a familiar blonde and blue eyed girl.
"Ah, Bismarck." Georgie says.
"What he did say was true though. We have grown stronger, even without him there to command us." Bismarck says, resting a hand on Georgie's shoulder. "I know I may not be as good as him..."
"Don't say that." Georgie replies. "You've done pretty well in the place of a commander. Are you sure you don't want to go back to Germany? Where home is for you?"
"As much as I like it back in Germany, this honestly feels like home to me, and I'm pretty sure Eugen and Zed think the same thing." Bismarck says. "And we have Jack to thank for that. He did mention it in his letter after all."
"You're right." Georgie says as two more ships emerge. "Wales, Hood, what brings you here?"
"One of the higher ups just spoke to us. They're requesting that Bismarck and the other Ironbloods come with us for something." Hood replies. "Something to do with Jack."
"Oh? Let's make our way there then." Bismarck says as she finds Eugen and Zed and they all head off.
