Negotiate

Sam and the Gambler academy team had a huge discussion. Or rather, one could say it is more of a set of instructions.

Sam gave and the team decided to follow.

And the first of those set of instructions was that Haziel accepts the invite for the meeting with the opposing teams. They didn't even oppose or ask to change anything. The time, place and the meeting conditions were all set by the opposing teams.

Haziel is to go there with two more people and they are going to meet a few miles away from the base of the opponents.

As per that agreement, Haziel went with the formation master and the healer of the team.

They didn't make many preparations and Sam didn't prepare the rest of the gambler team to wait in ambush or for backup.

The opponents on the other hand, had a meeting of their own before the meeting with the gambler academy team.
