“We cannot survive this Henry! You are our leader you make the decisions, our fate is in your hands those men are at your command what are we supposed to do.”

“Stop trying to control the tides of this war Alex. This is not your playing field you don’t make the rules he can’t make a choice right now and trying to force one can end with the death of our men and the kingdom in ashes.”

“Enough, you make a fair point Alex but you don’t need to remind me who’s lives I hold in my hands. I see them everyday and I’m haunted by the ones we lost every night. We will head north to where our brothers are bury the dead and seek there help. No more hiding no more fighting we rebuild our clan and make peace with the world.”
