It has come to my attention that only 9 days ago, on June 1st, 1814, at 3:14 in the morning, Napoleon Bonaparte, former emperor of the French, escaped his confinement with the help of loyalists, killed the allied forces in a battle, and stole the HMS Undaunted and took off with a few stolen ships, and more than a thousand of his supporters. News did not reach us immediately. Nearby sailors from the Grand Duchy of Tuscany in the city of Piombino had noticed smoke coming from the island, with ships departing en masse. They got on the Aquila, sailed to Elba, only to discover dead bodies of soldiers, and a missing French Emperor and force. News spread throughout the peninsula like wildfire, soon then spreading to Europe, then to us, Austria. After a few meetings, we and our allies have decided to take action. We, the coalition, rise up again and we are arming our forces and navy to hunt the little goblin down and put an end to this once and for all. I wish all the best of luck. - The Kaiserin, June 10th, 1814.
all Notes: Napoleon had tried to escape earlier in February. He was caught in prison.
