Within the human army, a young man with shiny gold plate armor is watching over the army entering the hole in the wall. A human knight runs to him before prostrating before him.

“Prince Sinclair, we have breached the walls.”

The prince turns to him before kicking him over and then stomping on him.

“I can see that you fool. You are supposed to get the monsters to break the rest of the wall so we can enter faster. You are a useless, disgusting fool. Get up and do your job.”

The prince lets up from kicking him. The battered knight, who curled up to shield himself, stumbles to his feet before leaving.

From behind the prince appears an elderly looking elf in an ancient military uniform.

“Was there any point to that?”

“Shut up old man. They are weaker, ugly, and insufferable lesser beings. They should be glad I just don’t kill them right now.”

“Need I remind you that these soldiers are a gift from the church. Don’t mistreat them. He was only giving a report.”

“I do what I want, old man.”

The old elf sighs before looking at the invading army.

“Just remember what we’re here to do.”

“I don’t need you to remind me. Killing the Sinclairs here is vital to the plan. With them gone, the rebels in Trinity would cease and turn to the Holy Church.”

“And you’ll be elevated to the throne for your success.”

“I know. Do you think I’m a fool?”

“No, but just remember the other objectives. They are equally as important, if not more.”

“I remember. The death of Gaelia and the other guardians, the capture of her son, and the death of the Matriarch of the StoneSeigward house are paramount to gaining an advantage in the coming war.”

“Good. Our associate has done plenty to assure our success.”
