The garrison that the elves situated at the goblins' borders was summoned back from the south, but it was unknown when they would arrive at the Wind Forest.
The queen was still in seclusion, and High Priestess Helena was still in Chaos City. Only Sally was left in charge of the elves now. Many elves didn't trust her potential and judgment, and some even sneaked out of the city to evade the disaster.
"Report! The Roth Empire's cavalry is only 50 km away from the City of Life, and they are still marching rapidly. They are expected to arrive at the City of Life in approximately one hour!"
"Report! The advanced force of the garrison will arrive at the City of Life in three hours!"
The two bad pieces of news were sent to the meeting tent almost simultaneously, making all elves look even worse.
