"Your words are true high king", Elder Makuma says, "it will be a shame on us if we're defeated by those who came to our homes.
With the meeting being in Ugali, it will mean we can be able to over power them if they're to try anything funny", he nods in agreement, " I support what the high king says.
My heart soared high at his words, does that mean they will be able to give a go ahead for the meeting to take place?
Does that mean I will be able to see my mates.
"Don't forget something trivial fellow elder", Elder Habu stood up, " their coming here doesn't change things, if anything it makes things worse", he sits down.
I glare at him with enough hatred, am afraid I will out my powers to them.
Powers?
Now I thought about it, there's no swirling color atop their head.
There was practically nothing, not even the dark ominous one that most times roves around Mistress's head.
Does that mean the elders didn't get their powers, or lost it as they aged?
"My elder, please can you explain more on what you mean by the words you're saying?", Father asked him.
He stands again, " you know strength doesn't always lie in the multitude. A single person from their kingdoms can defeat more than ten of our magic people, talk more of when they send more than ten of their men to guide their royalties".
His words are true based on his own point of view, but it doesn't mean they're right; if anything he's over exaggerating things.
I can see the other elders nodding in agreement to his words.
"What he said is true",
"Am totally against receiving them here, this might be another war strategy of them to wipe us out from the inside", Elder Francis said.
"Elder Habu", Father calls out to him, "you should have asked how many of them are coming for the meeting. I know you're right in your assumption of things, but as a elder, you shouldn't talk before knowing the entirety of the matter.
I look at Father in appreciation, a mind telling me that Father might be doing all this now just because he knows I want the meeting to take place.
"Pray tell your Majesty, how many are those that are coming for the visit?", Elder Francis asked with an mistakable roll of the eyes.
"They're only sending their high princes, their aides and two elders with them, and that's the total of 6 people, three from each kingdom".
" Three?! that's unbelievable", Elder Tank says, " that's like sending them as prey to us".
" I guess that's their way of showing us they bear nothing against us. Their high princes visiting us is nother form of trust. For a king to send his heir to enemy's territory proves how much they want the mutual meeting to be a success", at Father's words, the entire room quieted down, with Father looking so damn proud of himself for being the cause of that.
