Translator: Atlas / Editor: Regan

The conquest of Estia had been planned for some time. As a matter of fact, the reason they had visited Estia under the guise of peace negotiations had been partly in preparation for the invasion. But a date had not been suggested until now. Tension filled the conference room.

“But the spells…” Morga pointed out hastily.

“Well keep the Queen alive,” said Ishakan.

“……!”

That was totally unexpected. Morga stared at the King.

“Find all the spells cast on Leah before then,” Ishakan added. “And Id like you to…”

Morgas eyes widened as Ishakan explained his idea.

“Is that possible?”

Normally, no. But Morga thought it might be possible with Ishakan. It was worth a try. The sorcerer clenched his hands tightly. Ishakans path had never been easy. From the day Morga had begun serving him until now, the King had always traveled the impossible road. He had accomplished things others said he could never do, until he had finally taken the throne of Kurkan.

To Morga, Ishakan was a lighthouse. No matter how uncertain the road, he would always trust and follow him. He had no doubt that this time would be the same. Morga nodded firmly.

“I will do it,” he said.

“The warriors are ready,” said the chief of the bear tribe enthusiastically. “They may leave for war within a month.”

Ishakans eyes narrowed as he tapped the ashes out of his pipe.

“I dont want massive, total war,” he said.

One of the tribal chiefs was about to ask why, but shut his mouth, belatedly remembering that the Kings bride was the Princess of Estia. She had sacrificed a great deal to protect that country, and it was falling apart. For her sake, Ishakan would try to minimize the damage when he conquered it.
