At this time, a minister in charge of governing a portion of Taren Kingdom's terrestrial territory suddenly spoke up with concern, "What worries me is whether the Dorne Kingdom will launch an assault on us from the land."

You see, Taren Kingdom's problem right now isn't just that their entire navy fleet has been annihilated. Their not-so-outstanding army has also just collapsed, hasn't it...

Similarly, Taren Kingdom, always proud of its formidable navy, didn't actually have strong coastal defenses either.
