In the late afternoon, Cryoss and his high general Grull ride toward the Gromodor fort to see what is happening, as he approach the shipyard he found that the ships are damaged, "Who is in charge of this ship!" shout the king while pointing at the damaged medium ship, "Yes my king, i'm in charge of this ship" said an old looking orc, "tell me what caused this".
After a half hour, the captain of the ship finished telling the story to the king, the king stand up and with a calm looking said "They are getting so aggressive lately, i will show what the high orc can do"
Suddenly, two guards approach the king and bow, "my king, there is a messenger from the Bahapore waiting for you," said the older guard, "bring the messenger in" said Cryoss. After that the messenger come in with a scroll in his hand, "the message from Lord Geward" as he bow and give the scroll to King Cryoss, "let me see."
Dear High King Cryoss Soulfell, Leader of Torfas.
Greetings from Lord Geward of the Hapore Council of Northern Bahapore. I have received your message. I am happy for provide ships for your nations plentiful iron but I can also provide a much better opportunity for you. If you seek land and power, my nation has already massed forces to conquer the Elthana. We would be extremely happy if you join your forces with ours. Once the nation is under our control, the other nations, including my own have already started plans for a grand alliance to rule the islands of the northern sea. Below is information gathered on Elthana.
Their forces currently numbering 2,000 are focused mainly on the western island. My intelligence has reported that if given enough time, they could muster 10,000 soldiers.
Sincerely Lord Geward, Representative of the people of Bahapore
"Hmm, this is a quite coincident" the king said, "Gruul, spread the message to all your man, including who was not in duty, we need to bring our best to this, tell them to gather in Gromodor this night, and tell all member of the council to be in Gromodor this night, i need them to discuss some matter." the king said as Gruul nod his head, "and for you the messenger, tell Lord Geward, we will clean the eastern island by tomorrow night and for the trade agreement i will send a letter to approve that, follow me to meeting room."
As the king leave the shipyard with the messenger, Gruul have ride his horse and go to villages to spread the word.
In the meeting room, Cryoss sat in his chair and writing the message while the messenger waiting outside.
