Sad Truth > False Assumption

We should've been pulling up the anchors right about now but the next couple of hours became a civilized—though sometimes heated—exchange between me, Jesus, Artem, etc. Everyone else was free to say their thoughts out loud too and we leaders made sure that they were heard and not just nodded at and their ideas swept under the rug.

Obviously, almost all of Artem's group wanted to get back at the same area to exact revenge but even if Kuzma, who was for the idea, and Tatiana, who was actually against the idea, joined them to fill in Mikhail and Alexei's spots, a lot of things could go wrong if they followed the quote that told them to strike while the iron was hot.

But yeah, Artem wasn't that dumb for a suicide run and had plans of his own but what made the discussion far longer than it should've taken was Jesus telling them to compromise and work around a way so that both parties wouldn't shed as much blood.
