The First Big Contact

The command tent was alive with tension, a thick air of urgency hanging over everyone inside. Lyan stood around the large map table with Commander Arnold, Julius, Prince Erich, and other key figures. The map was spread out across the table, showing the intricate details of the terrain, the enemy's movements, and their own forces. Small figurines were positioned across the surface, marking critical points, lines of defense, and Varzadian advances. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Erich, who stood at the head of the table, his expression a blend of focus and determination.
