Sitting at a giant round table, a few maids were entering with drinks for each of the people at the table before leaving only leaving one maid in a corner.
Soon the developing council has all showed up. This council was made up of the head of each of the major guilds. So Adventure guild, Cylis, Alchemy Guild, Morgana, Craftsmen Guild, A young Dwarf that has shown Exceptional talent, Lilith the head of the Civilian Guild. Next would be the Generals, Brenda Swarm Leader(All warm type Units per se Undead, Goblins, Wolves and so on.), Drie Iron Legion(Shock troops and General Infantry), Drexar General Training(Basics for all intelligent troops.) Lastly, we have the Duel elve generals for a magic division Elonar and Sabrina. They have the elven legacies of the sun and moon. We are currently looking for a general to create a ranged division but have not had any luck so far. Next is The Technology Representative(TR) a neutral Dwarf to the two tech factions. Lastly are three people from different races to represent what the people want and need.
"Ok, we shall start today's discussions with the larger topics before we go into the smaller topics. Now we have two, three large topics."
"We have two large topics for today. Now let's start with what we know about what we know of the ocean based problem." Drexar said as he pressed a button on his phone(The Id) and from the centre of the table a diagram of multiple races came up.
"These are the known races that are working with the holy kingdom to pressure us from the sea."
As the list slowly scrolled it showed. Whalemen, Mermen, Mermaids, Giant Crabmen and Lastly manta men. The first and last being particularly troublesome as the first just brings in many hard hitting weapons. While the last and there mastery of tidal magic allowing them to large amounts of sustained damage after the whalemen's bombardment. The rest is just bulk for troops.
"We have several Mines along the cost which we at the moment desperately need. As 2 of the mines, there were providing 50% of all the metal we have been receiving along with a few other mines that produced a large number of the resources we used. Before anyone asks the pocket dimension in most places only has a depth of 50 meters so we cannot move the mines there. I promise you we have tried several times, so we cannot give up on those mines. Now we do have a plan to push them away from the shore long enough for us to set up defences. I will leave the rest to our TR."
Clearing his throat he straightened his back. "I have been working with the Generals on preparing some special bombs that we are going to fake as supplies we are bringing to support the troops at the front. The Bombs are remotely activated so after they reach their base or stop moving them we will detonate them dealing a devastating blow to there base of operation hopefully giving us enough time for our earth mages to set up a large wall that will be reinforced with steel plates. But at first, our goal will be to hold off there initial retaliation. We will have Goblin tanks hidden at the back along with our only War Balloon the goblins just finished." Taking a deep breath the Dwarf looked at everyone before motioning back towards Drexar.
"Now once we have successfully set up a base of operation we plan to have hopefully forcefully triggered a bunch of goblins evolutions towards underwater survival allowing, This would give us a water ready troop we can use to pressure them farther back. Currently, we have only gotten this far."
After his words, a goblin entered. Its skin was slightly tinged blue along with webbing on its feet. "At the moment it has increased swimming ability and can hold its breath for 45 minutes before running out of air." gesturing the goblin away it left. "Now, all we are missing is a metal supply to produce more of the bombs. So we would like to request a large purchase of metals."
looking over to Lilith. "Whats the funds looking like."
"My child, we have enough funds to get about 40 crates of raw Iron but there's a slight. This goes into our second large problem we don't have enough food for all of the Citizens as we can only feed about half of them for the next 4-5 months until we have our first batch of crops and in 6 months for the beast's that are being to mature to be ready for butchering."
"They are building a fifth city for another faction in the warzone. Would we be able to redirect the metal fro there for bombs."
"We should be able to but that's only enough for about another 5 bombs as that fortress is being built mostly with wood and stone. We have enough resources to build 8 bombs so we would need enough resources to build 7 more at minimum."
"For food, there are a few races that have insane regeneration would we be able to get see if any would be able to donate an arm or leg. For vegetation, there is a small treant community that is aiding the holy kingdom. Is there any possibility that we can capture them."
"My Child, The treants would only be able to produce enough food for 100 people at most. I also would like to try and convince them to join us before you capture them if that would be ok."
"That would be fine."
"I do have a few plants of my own that could put some into stasis but that alone only is enough for another 100 people."
"Morg see if you can produce more of those we will put all the captives in them so we need enough for 500 people. After those are created I want you to try and make a plant that produces food at a rapid rate."
"Also For the limbs, I will start it off. I am one such with increased regeneration." Ripping my arm off I placed it on the table as it started to regrow. "I don't want to hear anything about it my regeneration can keep up with it and I want others to take it as an example that none are above helping." Morg and Drie who were about to say something closed their mouths.
The conversations quickly went off to the other topics after it was decided that we will get what food we need than the rest towards metals and what we are short of will be taken from the pseudo war cities.
After the meeting, I went home. To be greeted by the little one she fell asleep in my chair again waiting for me to get back. Picking her up gently I moved her towards a bed beside my chair laying her down. gently tucking her in.
"I guess it's about time I gave her a name huh."
After her spending time with me, I asked her for her name but she said she wanted a new name from me and I have been putting off naming her as I didn't want to get to attached to her but it seems its too late, huh.
Gently pulling her whings she was retracting in her sleep. "How about Annie. Gracious and merciful." Upon pulling my hand away her little hand grabbed onto my thumb.
"I guess I can stay."
