Four Winds, Emris, Kabaka, and Isabelle watched Lorethion from afar. Rather than a city, the settlement looked more like a well-planned jungle. The houses were huge trees with large inner cavities serving as rooms. At the center of the capital was the gigantic tree which was also the palace.
"This is the first time I lay eyes on that capital," Kabaka said. "I've heard about its grandeur. Why the elves live inside trees is something I will never understand, but I can't deny its beauty. Too bad it will be ruined by our war."
"I've visited this capital in the past during my adventuring days," Isabelle said. "Never cross my mind that one day I will attack this place with the army of my country."
"I've come here several times doing quests for my guild," Four Winds said. "It is indeed a pity that such a beautiful place has to be burned by the flames of war. We need to defeat this capital as quickly as possible to keep the civilian casualties to the minimum."
