Three-Pronged Attack

"What is he doing here?" Oreg asked as he looked at the Half-Elf, who Baronar had brought with him to participate in their high-level meeting. "Have you forgotten that this is a meeting for the upcoming battle against the Humans? This is not a place for a brat."

Baronar just smiled at his comrade as he made a gesture for Lux to sit in one of the corners of the room, which the red-headed teenager obeyed.

"Don't be like that," Baronar replied. "Didn't you make a deal with him that you will recognize him if he manages to subdue the enemy army? Since that is the case, I think it's good for him to know a little more about the enemies that we will be facing in battle. Who knows? He might even save your life one day."

Oreg snorted, but no longer said anything. He gave the Half-Elf a side-long glance before shifting his attention back on the table where the map of the battlefield was spread out.
