In 1988, Gelonian nationalist groups took part in a series of terrorist attacks in Brennia, a [[Latium|Latin]] border city of majority Gelonian-speaking residents. On April 19, the [[Gelonian National Front|GSB]] dressed members of the [[Gelonian Army|Gelonian Royal Army]] bombed a Latin government building in Brennia, killing three Latin Senators visiting the city. The attack prompted a political crisis between the countries and a brief military standoff. Riocus, a member of the Royal Army's 12th brigade, was stationed at Ranneg during the crisis. Though his presence in Ranneg was unknown to the public initially, it was leaked during the crisis, prompting [[Robert IV of Gelonia|King Robert IV]] to ask for Riocus to be withdrawn, though Riocus and government refused his withdrawal.
