When Ares finally awoke and the people were winding down on the festivities, Ares spoke out to Rori and a few of the representatives, as he had done before. He needed to reform the army entirely, and he was hoping that it would go well. He had sent for Heria, who arrived not long after.
Once she had arrived, yawning and biting into some meat atop her giant wolf, Ares began to speak and address the peoples here.
"I will keep this as brief as I possibly can. You know of the new army structure, ten by ten by ten, which is what we'll keep to for the moment, and you know what I expected of the officer to non-officer ratio. Now let us speak of Rivea's plan to expand, and how to do it quickly, mercilessly, effectively."
Ares had finally resolved to do what he must. In order to protect Rivea and it's borders, as well as to finally take over the land and bring it under a unifying banner, he had to be a steel hearted bastard.
