Troubles Inside Thesalie

The old man who expressed his concerns over the evolving situation was called Kalidus and in his younger years, he had worked as Lord Ponticus's adjudant, thus giving his current words a lot of weight.

And his concerns were further justified when supported by the next man, who was interestingly  Lapitus himself, as this time he sided against his boss, stepping forward and saying, 

"I too agree that we should do something."

"Just sitting behind the wall and hoping the enemy will give up like our ancestors said seems to be no longer working."

"And whatever we do, it should be done as soon as possible."

"Because every day we take more and more casualties. And every day our numbers dwindle that little bit."

"Just today we had 39 dead and 53 wounded. We cannot sustain this forever."

"If we do not stem the bleeding, or take action soon, then we might even lose the ability to do anything about it in the future even if we wanted to!"
