Pentax. Mr. Pentax is currently serving as court photographer to Crown Prince Orloff Svenhasselstein of Drakonia. No doubt in addition to his photographic duties, Pentax was also instructed to report on the military capabilities of both armies on the day. Informed sources indicate that Drakonia is currently contemplating a power play in the region following Prince Orloff's recent ascendance to the throne. This unexpected turn of events came after the death of King Borris who accidentally drowned in his bath. Two days later Prince Orloffs elder brother Prince Waldorf died in a tragic hunting accident, falling from his horse. Officers on Orloff's staff said the fall didn't actually kill the prince but as he hit the ground his pistol unexpectedly discharged, fatally hitting prince Waldorf in the back of the head. International observers have said that prince Orloff is a headstrong militarist and could pose a serious threat to stability in the region. Drakonian officials denied these accusations asking " Who is saying these things? Do you have names and addresses". . . . . .
