“We can’t do the evacuation that fast, the people will not leave their house. You don’t know the people here. they will choose to fight alongside us rather than to retreat. They are warrior by heart.” Logan then explained the characteristic of the people near the fortress.

He was one of the senior warriors in the fortress. He was bald, even though he didn’t look that old. His black eyes filled with suspicion, as if he had to question everything that he saw.

“They are a loyalist for the royal family. They will do everything to defense the territory.”

“I forgot about that part,” Sol said. He just assigned to be here for a few months, while Logan had been here for a few years, so he understood the local better.

Subconsciously, all of them were looking for Rania, as if silently asked her for her opinion about what to do with this hurdle.

Rania squeezed her dress, crumpled it even more, as she was trying to think of a solution, and then she wrote something down, while the other was so eager to see what she came up with. They craned their necks to get a glimpse of what she was writing.

Rania was happy to see how things worked. Apparently, the political side of the kingdom was not that bad. It was the elders, who tried to make things complicated.

They were trying to have a different suggestion, just for the sake to be different. What a pain. Now, Rania could see why Maximus wanted to get rid of them. It was actually a good move.

Those old hags only brought trouble more than a solution after all. They didn’t need more trouble, when they already had enough on their plates.

“I think, you need to start the decree, my queen,” Darren said politely to Rania.

She had a few cuts, if it was not for her healing ability, she would have scars all over her body because of the sharp branches or sharp stones she stepped in.

“I can’t do it anymore. I am tired. Just leave me alone here,” Jasmine said to Michael, who approached her. He urged her to move..
