The Shepherd's Manor: A Diplomatic Tale

Synopsis: Shepherd Manor, the largest estate in the Fred Galaxy, is an ordinary farm that makes its living selling green plants. It was once also the headquarters of Organization D, the largest "commission" organization in the galaxy. Its former glory faded with time. Organization D gradually disappeared from public view, while Shepherd Manor's legitimate business on the surface also withdrew from the market as Dis became increasingly involved in politics. At this moment, a merchant named Parnak challenged Shepherd Manor's monopoly on luxury goods. After suffering setbacks in business and facing one hardship after another in his diplomatic career, Dis was visited by an unexpected figure, leaving him with a mix of joy and sorrow. On December 16, 3,4163, in the Fred Galaxy, the interstellar battle later known as the "Battle for Pritt" began. Though the two were far apart, they worked together with perfect understanding. Would the allied forces of the two countries succeed in their plan to occupy the nation of Anita? As the allied armies went to war, how would the nation of Delanais defend against a surprise attack from the nation of Lakeland? Who would claim Pritt, Anita's home planet? Was there truly no turning back for the relationship between the two? Perhaps only after experiencing separation and death can one understand the true meaning of protecting someone.
