Under Control (End)

Layland was having his weekly meeting with his fellow Warriors whom Ilschevar assigned to help him. Each of them had to report their findings or how far the task he gave them had progressed.

Decima the Lamia, as the army organizer and strategist, went first to report her findings. "A total of three hundred and thirty-two of our men died in the skirmish that our troops had with six Centuries of Paladins."

"A skirmish? It seems planned to me."

"Our number is larger compared to theirs, Commander—"

"So, it is only correct to assume that it is a skirmish because no one is stupid enough to attack a bigger group? It has happened three times already, Maxine. Once is a coincidence, twice is a miracle and thrice is something planned. That's how it goes."
