The Battle Thus Far (2)

When Kyran contacted Achim's side, it was Haji who answered. The latter did not beat around the bush and reported the situation on their side at once.

Apparently, Achim and his father, Ravan, along with the other prominent figures from Achim's paternal and maternal sides, who had a good relationship with them, were in a closed-door meeting. Haji was supposed to join them, given his rank among Achim's group, but Achim insisted their allies might contact them and having Haji there to talk to them would be better.

Ravan initially stated he was not against Achim receiving a call from his allies while they were in a meeting. He even entertained the idea because if that happened, he and the rest of his in-laws would meet those group Achim claimed to be leading their campaign. Ravan was clearly interested in the group's identities that could change Achim's attitude.
