Patton sighed as he listened to the news from his knight, that yet another home had been destroyed.
"Go get the food and water rations, and show those who lived in that home where the bunker is, alright? Tell them that I'm incredibly sorry."
The knight nodded.
"Yes, your majesty."
The war had been going on for years now, started by the three kingdoms parents. The three kingdoms were Cerebrum, with the smartest bloodline, Regium, with the strongest and most royal, and Cordis, known for its kindness. Three of the princes had become kings, and now were running the war they'd grew up on.

Logan was working on strategizing attacks. His forces kept mobilizing, and although effective in bloodshed, it wasn't very effective in terms of strategy and foresight. The king of Cerebrum put his head in his hands.
"No, no, no...! Every path we choose leads to a dead end and gets us nowhere!"
"What do you suppose we do, your highness...?"
"...Ask for the troops to retreat. We will fly a white flag at dawn. Cerebrum has lost too many lives already... Either we negotiate a peace treaty with the other nations, or we isolate ourselves. There is no other logical path."
Patton smiled softly. Of course he wanted to end the war! What was it all for, anyways? He wanted to be friends with the other two kings and enjoy himself! He wasn’t sure how the king of Regium would react, however...

Roman was excited to be able to end this war and move on, help his kingdom recover, and be done with the war. He still didn't completely trust the other two kingdoms though.
Logan patiently awaited the responses of the other kingdoms for days, and he was willing to wait until he got an answer from the two lands one way or the other.
A few days later, the king of Cerebrum received a letter.
King Logan-
I received your letter, and I'm more than happy to end the war! I've been hating all this fighting, I want a bit of peace as king. I hope we can get together soon! Perhaps in my kingdom?
Sincerely, King Patton II

Logan's stressed complexion slightly softened, and he felt more confident about the odds of peace.
He wrote a letter in response, which Patton would receive not but a day later:
King Patton II,
I am ecstatic to hear of your eagerness to end the war. I am just as passionate about ending this conflict as you are. I humbly accept the invitation to your kingdom, and I do hope this "calms the waters" of conflict between our dueling kingdoms. With gratitude, I will show myself at your gates, at a date which is suitable for you.
Thank you once again for your invitation and willingness to make peace between us.
With best regards, King Logan of the Eastern Kingdom of Cerebrum
