As I had to wait for these two messages, I opened my friend list and started warning everyone.
I asked them to notify me if strange things happened at any city or town they moved against. I also asked them to be extra careful, not to proceed and blindly attack like usual.
We had a new player in the game, and that player was already a deadly predator. Last thing I'd want is to lose any force of mine, not after going through all this trouble, time, schemes, and resources to nourish them.
The only one to ask for further details was that jumper. That bastard was a real pain in the as*, yet when coming to such fine details he was really superb.
He would never accept half assed info, always seeking for the full truth. That wasn't just part of his personality, but it was what made him all special.
I explained what happened without delving towards the reason. He was new to such a race, making me realise they came a bit earlier than usual.
