Keireen storms into the war room where onikerm sits at the table, Keireen sits down and looks at the now empty seat of Ratankira. Keireen in anger burns the chair to ash as he looks at the map. Onikerm had marked three possible targets for attack from Geirlanth armies and Keireen thinks before looking at onikerm.

"Ratankira was our best in terms of military strategy and general fighting other than myself, when I'm dealing with Reinlas and his half dead brother theres no one good enough to lead our armies" Keireen says

"Well I always ca-" Onikerm gets cut off immediately

"No you fucking cant! You are an insane torturer with barely a mind for strategy! Now shut up." Keireen says

"Very angry arent you? Didnt think Ratankiras death would hit you so hard" Onikerm says with a smirk

"As I said he was our best to lead the army other than me so we are very much fucked, wherever they attack we'll need to have every war beast we have left attack alongside our own forces" Keireen says

"Very unwise, no guarantee they'll stay on our side they very much could jsut attack our soldiers giving Reinlas the advantage" Onikerm says

"Then you'd best find a way to break them to they wont leave. You have something in that skull of yours to do that dont you!?" Keireen shouts

"One or two ideas" Onikerm says as his smirk becomes sadistic

"Then fucking go!" Keireen shouts at onikerm like he was a trained dog

Onikerm gets up and walks out looking at the guards who begin to follow him beneath the castle, more guards join them and wait outside the war beast holding cell areas. Onikerm walks to the gates to each area and smirks.

"Hello my beasties, happy to see me back?" Onikerm asks

"Piss off" Is uttered by multiple war beasts

"Aww such sour moods, regardless ALL of you are attacking Geirlanthian armies later am I understood?" Onikerm asks

"Why the hell should we?" One brave Tykema asks

"Oh for a simple reason, every other war beast thats left did so because they had nothing left to lose but every single one of you still here have something, the small families you built in your cages. Children which you all care for" Onikerm says

The war beasts grow worried some more rabid as Onikerm turns his back to them and looks at the guards.

"Guards take the children" Onikerm says while giggling to himself

The guards move forward and begin opening cages taking away the children of the different war beasts, some war beasts try to fight back but are kicked against the cages or their children are threatened causing them to back off.

"You will get them back but only if you come back, those of you who do not return will find out one day that your children died screaming" Onikerm says as his giggles turn to laughter before walking out with the guards and children

"Where do we put them?" One of the guards ask

"The cells meant for immortalai, when you have them there put ten times the normal amount of guards in that area, if even a single one of them thats capable of understanding it moves without an order to set a circle of fire around them, if any of them start to fly remember that none of them at this point should be flying so its an adult tykema helping, if so kill them" Onikerm says

"By your orders" The guard says as he and the other guards take the children to the immortalai cells, onikerm sees the extra guards come down the stairs to join the others

"Good" Onikerm says as he looks into the war beast cells seeing them worried and scared

"As it should be" Onikerm says smirking before heading back upstairs

Onikerm heads back to the war room which has been torn up by Keireen, onikerm looks around at the devastation and finds the world map now on the wall with three daggers on the locations he marked earlier.

"Something new happen?" Onikerm asks intrigued

"One of the scouts that worked for Ratankira reported in, Gierlanth is attacking all three locations at the same time only one of them being lead by Reinlas and his brother" Keireen says

"Which one?" Onikerm asks

Keireen sets one of the map daggers on fire.

"Oh port Kirak, very good place to land magicless soldiers through ships, hard to stop ships reaching there with the surrounding land conquered" Onikerm says

"Shut up, you get why this is bad, that port is not far from this very city, they take that we are fucking done for" Keireen says

"Indeed, so what do you suppose we do?" Onikerm asks

"They cant take it and if we split our immortalai army to the other two locations we'll lose it all too quickly, send the tykema to the other two locations those cities are unimportant as are the people within, when they start their assault on the cities have the tykema start burning the city if any of our people die from it its acceptable casualties, meanwhile have the hykra and delantramites go with our army to the port. They CANNOT FUCKING TAKE THAT FIRST FORSAKEN PORT!" Keireen shouts

"As you command Keireen" Onikerm says walking out of the room

Onikerm goes back down to the war beast cells and goes to the Tykema area he laughs looking at them.

"We have cities to burn" Onikerm says as he crouches down to look at them in their cages

"What ones?" One tykema asks

"Two of our own" Onikerm says plainly as he teleports maps into their cages for them to look at

"When geirlanth attacks you will burn the cities to the ground" Onikerm says

"Anything so we can have our children back" The tykema all say looking at eachother

"Good" Onikerm says before turning to the hykra and delantramite areas

"The rest of you have a gigantic army to fight, best not lose or you will lose more than your own lives" Onikerm says with a smile as he leaves again pulling out a blade coating it in poison as he stabs a prisoner brought into the castle next to him

"We'll take them away now" The guards say as they take the prisoner down to the cells

"Our final days may be upon us and I see Keireen slipping, in these days he'll see the world more as I do" Onikerm says to himself as he starts laughing insanely while in the distance Reinlas's armies break through the border forces...
