Resting up while we can as Cliff and Lord Tooj go over parameters for defense, I notice dozens of men and women begin to show up around us, maybe 2 miles outside the Capital grounds.
Lord 4 & 5 show up along with a host of unfamiliar faces, ranging from aged old men, 60-70 years old, to young people, maybe as young as 12 years old. To my dismay, I'm still by far the youngest here, but I guess my situation is a bit different.
As I'm watching Lord Tooj draw out a map, the King is resting his wounds and attempting to regain his lost spirit energy. It's clear that he has begun to age, and this once 40ish year old man now looks to be around 60, with added wrinkles to his face and the black hairs turning grey around his head.
That's when Lord Raiden and Lord Shozi walk up and greet everyone, apologizing for not getting here sooner.
