Dead and Buried Part II

Franz von Zehntner was the heir apparent to his family. The eldest child and official head of the family business. However, he was a hedonistic man who spent most of his free time gallivanting overseas with exotic women.

Maximilian, the wastrel of the von Zehntner family, was in the process of redemption. Though his exile from the house had yet to be revoked, his actions as an agent of the Crown, and a royal shit stirrer on behalf of the Kaiser had gone a long way towards gaining his father's forgiveness.

Ludwig was a proud member of the Bundesrat and a leader among those within the Land Army and Fortresses committee, he was considered the man to succeed the head of their house as he entered his twilight years as a politician representing the interests of the junker coalition, the German Conservative Party, and of course the other right wing political parties which rallied behind their majority control of the Empire.
