Set Up

Hundreds of miles away, in an entirely different Kingdom, a frantic messenger bursts into a room filled with nobles.

"M-my Liege! Terrible news!" The messenger shouts, as he begins to pant heavily.

"Calm yourself! What news do you bring?" The King asks.

"An outpost was attacked this past week! The report states that the main assault led against the outpost was done by mages! The aftermath shows that all of our men died, with only 30 dead attackers. They seem to be native to the Marrin kingdom in appearance, but not of their military." The messenger blurts out.

All of the nobles begin to gasp, and panic. The King's eyes widen as he leans back.

"Are you sure of this…?" The King asks.

"Yes… We do not know who the perpetrators are, but regardless of that, this is an act of war." The messenger replies.

"Let us discuss… Leave." The king says as the Messenger leaves. The king then calls for the Prince.
