Well then, Zaos had a problem in his hands. He didn't travel for two weeks to serve as a sacrifice. Still, it seemed that Brien assumed that Zaos only came to make sure that they would last for as long as possible in order for the kingdom to make a reasonable, more significant force.

"They still are solidifying their position in the town they took the other day," Brien said. "We lost three thousand men in that fight, but they had to work ward to win, so they lost the same amount of men and used many resources. They already knew that my soldiers would fight until the last men, so they were preparing to build the terrain for a fight where they wouldn't lose many men or resources. My guess is that they will be ready for that in two weeks."
"Resources, huh," Zaos said. "I guess that is all, sir."
