The Four Phases Of Preparation II
"This phase will consume the first six months. We need a comprehensive understanding of the demons we face as they are sure to have adapted and changed after the last war twenty years ago."
"Scholars, mages, and scouts must work together to gather every scrap of information available—weaknesses, hierarchies, their magic. We must also conduct reconnaissance of known demon-infested territories and locate their portals. If possible, capturing low-level demons for study will provide valuable insights."
Elder Fael stroked his beard thoughtfully. "Knowledge is power, and without it, we are blind. Agreed."

"We require scholars well-versed in ancient texts, mages skilled in various aspects especially cloaking, teleportation, healing, and illusions, and finally we need scouts adept at infiltration. Knowledge of demonic hierarchies, their strengths and weaknesses, and their realms will be our strongest advantage."
