Patriarch's Instructions

"Those bastards!"

An angered shout boomed loudly within a gathering hall as a fist slammed down on a table. There were over a dozen people within this room, who were looking towards the one who had just slammed his fist. 

Clan Leader Cade still had an angered look on his face, as he slowly unclenched his fist. Behind him, an opaque drape revealed a seated figure, sitting there in silence. 

As if to mock them further, the Crimson Valley Sect had sent several of the guard's heads back to the Fenix Clan, not concerned at all about the consequences.

"Clan Leader Cade, let us go to war with the Crimson Valley Sect. Their actions have crossed the line this time," a passionate yell echoed within the gathering hall.

"That's right. We can't sit idly anymore," another yell boomed out.

Several more yells of agreement echoed out, but were silenced as a figure from behind the drapes spoke out.

"Such decisions cannot be made lightly."
