Ed's words were surprising. Nevertheless...
"Again?" Sharog asked with hidden concern.
"What!?" Shel exclaimed in panic.
Sharog's reaction seemed odd but this would be the second time Ed made such a declaration out of seemingly nowhere. After the initial surprise, there wasn't much else.
She was also concerned. It was perhaps her own delusion but after seeing the strength of the humans and the death of Vorgarag followed by their victory she had written off the possibility of a second attack.
Of course, there was always the possibility of the war involving a foreign tribe but seeing the serious expression of Ed and hearing his declaration would make one automatically write off this possibility.
Shel on the other hand wasn't present to witness many of these moments and she definitely hadn't thought this far ahead.
