Initially, the news of Rex being aimed at by the Executor reaches the Elders' ears.
Almost instantly, all of them trembled in utter fear.
Even though they were also educated in the Silverstar Pack's standing by the chosen Dark Elves that King Jorik assigned, none of them believed that Rex would win against a being that is depicted as pure evil.
He would not win against the Executor.
Naturally, the Elders told King Jorik that siding with the Silverstar Pack was a bad idea.
If Rex lost, the Dark Elf Kingdom would crumble alongside him.
All of the Elders harbored a collective hope that King Jorik would go along with their heavy but reasonable demands, severing ties between the Kingdom and the Silverstar Pack. But surprisingly, he staunchly and unequivocally refused to do that.
Unlike the Elders, King Jorik is a visioner, desiring a bright future.
From the dawn of time, the Dark Elf Kingdom has always been a servant to other races.
