"Men! The time to act is now. Traitors have infiltrated the palace and taken the Crown Prince hostage! We must rescue him!"
Standing on a small raised platform, this was the reason Lord Theony gave the gathered officers, galvanizing them for the attack.
After a bit of discussion with Jupiter, this was the reason they chose to give to the men.
And when Lord Theony first said this, it naturally produced a lot of shocked looks.
'What! When did this happen? Who are these traitors' Many of the men found themselves asking.
But given they were Lord Theony's personal troops, none of them dared to raise any doubts and simply nodded in agreement.
Thus satisfied with this deference, the lord then swung his broad arms to order, "Go! Breach the palace! Capture the traitors and kill anyone who resists! The Crown Prince is waiting for us!"
"Hurrraahhh!" Came the instant loud cheer.
