After the king greeted you a fellow knight ran up to the king panting and out of breath the knight said" your majesty the orcs declared war on us they are planning to attack in a few days prior do you have any battle plans your majesty? He said sounding worried

Orcs? You said looking confused i guess the note next to the cave wasnt lying there are orcs and other creatures within the caves

The king spoke I do have a plan how many soldiers are in the kingdom now dear knight

If i had to guess a couple hundred majesty the orc army are only a couple hundred as well your majesty

You looked at them we are really going to war with orcs i read about them there 4 times stronger then a normal being even with armor we would get crushed

The king spoke silence! They may be stronger then us but not smarter we shall flank them by surounding them and using cannons to easily take down their forces

Great plan your majesty the other knight said

Indeed good plan you said you said there gonna be attacking in a few days but where will we stage this fight and how are we gonna know where they are?

The king spoke that is true hmmmm illl send scouts to spy on there incoming armies until then we have to prepare rally up all the soldiers and get into battle positions

Okay your majesty the other knight said attention! All soldiers into battle positions now go go!

As he said that the the knights got into battle positions riding on horses archers got up on the walls and prepared the canons for the battle plan the king said

You went into battle position and rode a horse the scouts went to ride horses to spy on the incoming orcs
