1969 Conversations with Elves (2)

"Yes, it's true. I plan to go to the North Sea after making some preparations in the Black Plain Empire. That should take a few years, but before the ice age even begins, I should have finished exploring that area..." Minos said before smiling with a more humorous remark. "If I survive, of course."

But as much as he had joked about it, that was a risk that not only he but also Kolvar and Levis recognized. 

"So your fears about that area are real?" Levis asked soberly, aware Minos had disturbing theories about the world's future.

The elves were very close to the Sea Folk. After Minos had stood out in this meeting, even though he was the weakest of the many individuals in the camp, they had sought out their old friends to talk about Emperor Stuart.

Through it, the elves learned of the agreements Minos had made today, as well as his fears and the agreement he had made with the Sanctuary of Visions.
