Linfel and Nori had told Milia and Alvin about the previous conversation they had with Falagita and Claus. All they had said was already bad news, so how come the bad news was coming out just now?
Claus continued. "Because of the fast pace of the Xanzion Country's advance, our base here won't be able to stay here for long. Projections are that they will advance to this location in the next two to three days at most. If you look outside, you will see that a lot of the equipment is already being moved out."
"However, if we continue to be pushed back like that, we will eventually be trapped between Xanzion and Volztain in the north. Volztain is also advancing with all they have and giving no chance for us to breathe. On the south, things are slightly beter since Porfate Country is located on the other side of the South Sea. For now, we don't need to worry about them."
Vera, the spy? The ally? Who knows? :P
Don't forget the Power Stones. ;)
