Mining Discussion

"The next direction we were asked to discuss was the mines." 

"Since the properties of the minerals can be different from what we know, we fortunately don't need to go all-out for now. We still need to study their composition and actual use, after all." 

Victor nodded. "I saw the announcement only asking for 20. Did you make that?" 

"All Elders can do announcements," she said. "You will also have as well. They have a limit, though, so better not post too many." 

Victor thanked her, but his fist was clenched. The more power given to him, the more his new role was becoming concrete. To be honest, he didn't think he had what it took to lead an entire territory. He simply wanted to defend his people, the politics would always be beyond him. 

Juni, who was not at the table but sitting among the audience, happened to have a clear view of Victor and his expressions. She pursed her lips in thought, though no one knew what she was thinking.
