King Coleoran Hexenmane received the war report from outside a closed door, the messenger's words filtering through like whispers of failure.
The bridge remained blocked, with no signs of real progress. It was expected for a distraction, but still felt unpleasant to think about the massive resources he had invested for mobilization. And there was still no news from Hagen… they were taking longer than expected for some reason he couldn't determine from his position, and his group had the most important mission they all had to wait for.
The only relatively good news was that the traitor on the other side, in whom they had also invested so much time and resources, was finally bearing fruit.
Though not without problems either.
Ravenspire had to be sent to rescue Kassian… a mission that seemed it would succeed without too many problems with his high-level flying squadron, but represented a waste of valuable resources.
