"Tell me the truth, do you think those walls will protect you for very long?" Mexyn narrows her eyes on Hen but doesn't wait for her to respond.
"And you, do you think that the enemy in Thraqe won't find out about your stronghold sooner than later?" She turns to the alien army.
Again, she doesn't let either side answer.
"Both of us are fighting against the wrong enemy. To think that we are safe simply because we stay away from each other is simply absurd. One way or another we each have a bigger enemy. The high royals. They will come in here and break through whatever strongholds or walls we have and hurt the people that we love. It's not a theory; they've already done it." Mexyn continues to talk loudly, and Tempest notices that the people are moving closer to her.
Tempest couldn't think of a time she was more proud of Mexyn.
