Queen Maillard and her entourage are examining the newly repaired docks after the battles months before to liberate the Corathite Temple in the city when a messenger races up to them, prostrating himself on the ground and holding aloft a sealed envelope.

A guard grabs the message and cracks the seal inspecting the contents breifly before passing it to her.

Her face frowns as she reads it then reddens in anger. her voice explodes loudly for all to hear nearby.

"How Dare they! The Self-serving Fools!." She turns to the Captain of her Guard.

"To the Temple, Immediately. I must speak with the Sanctis urgently. This cannot be, the Black Wizards have gone too far this time, we must act."

The entourage about face quickly and hurry to keep pace with the angry monarch as she storms towards the Corathite Temple.

HOurs later the Queen emerges from the emergency session with the Sanctis and makes her way to the throne room of the castle. There she has summoned before her every available commander in the armies around Arnax.

She sweeps her imperious gaze across them all before speaking.

"Hear this and hear this well,
You will recall, cajole, summon, forcibly if necessary every single able bodied citizen we can put into the field immediately. You will equip them with anything and everything you need from the royal armories and from some stocks that have arrived from some mercantile trading consortiums for the war. You have our royal permission to do anything and everything posible to ensure that we can field an army of the largest proportions we can.

You will go north within days and visit every homestead, every town and every village and forcibly take with you every able bodied man, woman and child that can weild a weapon. You will travel to Nith and when you get there....you will not stop.

The Black Wizards have betrayed Hilm for their own purposes. They have promised Molvaren they will not fight against him if he leaves Nesar alone.

But, we agreed to Hilm being established to protect this nation and we will be damned if we will not beholden to the Cult.

The Cult will feel our sting, your orders are to take these armies and enter Kuhl. They think they can ignore us, well i am telling you they will rue the day they turned their backs on us.

Invade Kuhl, make them pay!.....And I WANT IT DONE YESTERDAY!"

Those inside the throneroom jump at her shriek, some look excited, other confused and others still downright frightened. But, soon even the most hardened veteran jumps to do her bidding. Woe betide them if they do not.
