Conference

Tension rode the conference room as if it was a wild stallion, reining in their emotions with a whip of unease and fear. After realizing that their enemy could detonate them at any moment, their faces were pale.

Among the Golden Division lieutenants, there were the bold and the cautious. However, both of them agreed that they had found themselves in a dire situation. Arthur led the meeting as the man who first noticed the explosion.

"In order to understand the nature of this strange power, we first need to analyze what made them target Hawkins. With all due respect to my lieutenant, but his name isn't known enough among the ten cities for the bandits to fear him."

"How do we know it's the bandits?" asked another lieutenant with excessive body hair. His V-neck shirt revealed a miniature bush of hair that he seemed proud to show. "It could be any other city targeting us before we get to the bandits. After all, the attack was too organized."
