Appearance

"Wendorf, you have to explain yourself," Ozzic said coldly.

"I will follow your every order, my lord. All you need to do is ask," Wendorf said as he smoothed out his robe. "But I need a few more days, my lord. I have a lot of men. I need to make sure that they are aware of what I want to do."

"I already gave you three days," Ozzic said sternly. Wendorf had been trying to stall every time Ozzic tried to speak with him, and his attitude had not been pleasant. Before they had come together, the two sides had agreed that they would have a pleasant conversation and try to negotiate. This was why Shinbella and Ozzic only brought a handful of mercenaries with them. Wendorf, however, must have brought at least fifty men with him. Wendorf’s attitude was not the attitude of a man who wanted to negotiate, either.

"I don’t want my men to be divided over this," Wendorf said. "I need a few more days. I am sure I can give you a satisfactory answer by then."
