"Listen closely! If you see this thing, what do you think is the proper thing to do?!" shouting like a rabid dog, the three otherworlders had already gotten to see that the beautiful elven face everyone had always been talking about both in their former world and this one, could perfectly contort into images of absolute disgracefullness.
The rabid elf in question, or rather, rabid high elf was in a position that didn't make much sense, everyone seemed to agree that she was the leader of the subjugation army built to destroy the lesser elves but everyone also agreed that she shouldn't actually command any troop.
This made perfect sense since she was an absolute maniac with a tendency toward violence.
Thankfully her anger was discriminate and was only aimed toward the lesser elves and their new leader of some sort, The Crystalian, it was a drawing of him that she was pointing to.
The representation lacked the colors but was still impressive, the rough surface of his crystal head were visible and it was easy to imagine the angles were as sharp as blades.
Olivia raised her hand carefully but not too slowly, the high elf didn't like hesitation.
"Run and contact reinforcement?" despite that knowledge, she couldn't help but be uncertain when dealing with this elf.
"Wrong! You run straight for his fucking throat and kill him, that's what I would do and you shall do the same! He's a little slithering worm, he'll run away! Break his legs so he doesn't go anywhere!" she barked, sending saliva flying throught he air, landing right on the three otherworlder's faces.
It hadn't even been a week since they had arrived and the war against The Crystalian wasn't even a month old either, such swift reaction from Gloire was possible thanks to an embassy on the island and a teleporting circle between the two places.
The high elves had good relations with Gloire but the king believed that it would skyrocket thanks to this impromptu war and allow Gloire to ask for actual support from the high elves.
One thing that was good about the high elves was that unlike the depictions the three are read and heard about, they didn't think of themselves as almighty and superior to everything, they looked down on the lesser elves so much that they were okay with everyone else.
"He hasn't shown himself much since the start but since the last few days, he has been making multiple apparitions on battlefields, showering our soldiers with his crystals and taking the life of many by himself..."
The high elf, whose name wasn't very simple, pulled out a map and pointed to a place were a tower was represented.
"There is an abandoned tower right here, the inferiors have been seen gathering around it and it has been reinforced by crystals, that bastard is clearly trying to bait us and guess what? We'll bite hard enough to knock him off balance and slaughter him!" spoke Alamanthienne as she taped the spot repeatedly.
"After that, there won't be any rest! We'll truly make sure to exterminate all of those inferior worms! They thought they could fight back against us? They'll regret it in hell!" she always grinned while saying those things but never actually laughed, she taped her chestplate instead.
Alamanthienne was wearing a set of plate armor made out of adamantine, not to be confused with adamantium, it was a bright metal that the high elves were fond of and that was found all over their territory.
The high elf had long blond hair tied in an intricate ponytail behind her head and lush green eyes, just like your typical high elf, she had a beautiful feminine face, when she wasn't scowling, so she wasn't cute very often.
"Hum, what is the plan, in greater details?" dared ask Charlotte.
"There is a plan but I didn't bother with it, you three and me will be rushing straight for The Crystalian, right in the tower, directly, without any pause, we'll enter, kill everything in the way and then kill him, easy and simple" stated the high elf has she took back the map and strolled off.
"She's not serious is she?" questioned Emma after not seeing the elf come back.
"We're all going to die..." Charlotte let her face fall onto the table.
"Whoa hey girls, let's not be defeatists okay? We got trained right? We know who to swing weapons around and cast some spells!" Oliva tried to reassure everyone.
"You heard her, that Crystalian guy killed high elven soldiers! Our special skills aren't even combat oriented and we have to accompany a psychopath to try and battle an experienced fighter, probably surrounded by many soldiers of his own too!" reasoned Charlotte.
"She's right you know"
"Well yes but Alaman- Alam- Ala is till an experienced fighter! If someone can murderize their way through this it surely is her!"
"Why did the king sent us anyways?" daydreamed Emma.
"Otherworlders are always perceived as important and are fairly rare, so sending all three of us is a strong message of support and trust, the king doesn't expect us to solve the problem, we are figureheads" Olivia was the one who paid the most attention, Emma was mosty spacing out and staring at nothing while Charlotte just didn't retain much information on the first try.
"Had he wanted to solve it for them, he would have just ask miss Jeanne or Ithelisemou to do it for him but solving their problem for them isn't the best idea, that doesn't send the right message, I think..." the freckled girl was mostly repeating what she had heard mixed with things she had learned way back, she wasn't certain why solving the problem was a bad idea.
The hazelnut haired girl picked up the drawing of The Crystalian in her usual daze, it wasn't certain what he was at all, he might be fully made of crystals as his moniker suggested but it wasn't certain at all.
Alamanthienne seemed convinced that it was just a lesser elf that had gotten lucky and gotten some sort of power but not everyone seemed convinced of this, some high elves suspected that it was a high elves that was pulling the strings, perhaps in an attempt to usurp the throne.
The Crystalian had simply showed up and brought all of the lesser elves together, giving them weapons and teaching them tactics as well as how to fight, arming them with crystal armors and weapons, he could be said to be the one to have killed every fallen high elf so far.
