Editorial

In the coming months, you are likely to see may foreign faces in Lille. Of course, we are all highly looking forwards to the Chinese envoys' arrival, however, we can also expect them to be well accompanied.
Indeed, the Ottoman Empire has obviously been serving as China's point of contact with Europe and has been taking care of all of their envoys' needs. What we have not heard about before now, is that the Empire of Austria has recently sealed an alliance with the Ottomans!
While our glorious French Kingdom remains the Chineses' first point of interest in Europe, Austria has been using this new alliance to sneak in some people among their entourage, so as to supposedly help "guide and protect them". All fair game in war and diplomacy...
So, if you hear some German among the envoys' and their entourage during their sojourn in Lille, do not panic! They are no Prussian enemies or Dark Lord's minions, merely the Chineses' Austrian hangers-on.
And top Among them is Herr Streiff.
