Herald of Steel

Adhania was a nation that seemed to be quite in favor of trying to resolve their conflicts with talks and negotiations rather than the sword.


This was proved by the presence of various customs and traditions that encouraged dialogue by offering strict protection to the messengers. 


And these protocols were indeed strict, as just the simple act of attacking a messenger caused the curse of god to descend, much less forget about killing them, which seemed beyond the realm of possibility.


But it was a possibility that both sides made come true.


Of course, as the side who struck first, Lord Nafi and his entourage did not solely rely on Alexander's goodwill.


They had taken precautions, such as keeping almost 50 meters away from him.


And given that a javelin had a range of only 20-30 metres, and the men around Alexander were not seen carrying any bows, this distance seemed pretty safe.
