The neutral faction had two lead nobles, both of whom were marquises.
The rest of the nobles were merely counts or barons serving the marquies, or those who were scared of war.
Ten of the neutral faction's nobles—the ones holding all of the power—had to be kidnapped by the night and returned to their places as if they were never abducted.
However, with Jake guarding Velric along with Vairan, they didn't have enough members to kidnap ten nobles.
There were nine of them, including Selena, Siris, Clara, Lia, Jessy, Graye, Rufus, Raven, and Alex, who was accompanied by Nibbles.
So, Raven had decided to kidnap both of the marquises since their guards were stronger, but someone had stopped him.
It was Nibbles.
The squirrel had asked to give it a chance to prove that it could do it as well.
After a lot of thinking, Raven had decided to leave the weaker marquies to the squirrel, and although the squirrel had never disappointed him, he hoped that it would be the same again.
