Inferno had quickly used heat to soften the shell of a massive Rock Lobster, finally eating it whole. it was probably the most filling fish he had ever eaten, and after eating it, he waited for Balmeer to finish with a large fish with pinkish orange flesh, while Morian manipulated a squid into a round easily eaten ball, consuming it in one bite, but feeding her completely. after the meal was over, the Dragon Emperors collected to sort out their actual business. "Now, Inferno, to make sure you know exactly what's going on, i'll fill you in on the latest details. Now, through the information from our agents within the Industrialist and Demonic Empires, we have gathered the following: The Industrialists have taken an area North West of their Capital back from the Demons, and have recently developed especially powerful weaponry against them. the Swamps south West of the City of Racayen, which stands west of their Capital, have been taken from the Orcs, who are now being used as slaves and warriors. they have organised a deal with them that those who serve for more than 5 years are given all the rights of an Industrialist. The Demons have been working on assembling The Great Gate in the Angorian Desert. we've attempted to send raids, but all but the most powerful attacks have had any level of success. If the Gate is assembled, it'll give Beliar access into this world, and then, our war will become nearly impossible to win. one of Beliar's strongest Generals, Skarrbor, wil undoubtedly be accompany him. his hordes of monsters are legendary. they were the cause of the fall of the Warrior Nation beyond the Northern Mountains. it was by the power of King Delmorssa that they were defeated. now, in these times, it's up to us to make sure that they cannot wipe out another race. not even one. We have gathered information that the Dwarves are mining a new kind of metal they call Adamantium. they say it is tougher than Mithril, lighter, and capable of taking even the most powerful hits without much damage being done. this metal would be envaluable when fighting the Demons' powerful Balrogs and Hell Guards. Unfortunately, the condition to sharing this resource is that we don't hand it to the Green Dragons. so, Emperor Rutus, if i may be so bold as to say, I'm afraid that means that for the safety of the Dragons under your command, it'd be best that they don't partisipate in major assaults of Demonic control centers. The Elves are working on an alliance with the Mages to help open up eachother's Magic so that they can use the best of both to help develop more powerful spells to fight the Demons. Any questions or suggestions regarding what to do next? anyone?". Inferno growled "Well, first of all, what military movements were being planned against the Demons, or Industrialists?". Balmeer looked at the others and growled "Well, For starts, we're concentrating on the Industrialists as they are weaker and would serve as good battle practice for when we take on the Demons. Secondly, so you know, we're currently fighting a losing battle against both factions because we're too spread out. we also have a large number of problems internally, mainly wars with various factions not just against us, but against eachother. to be able to truly wipe out the Demons and Industrialists, we'll need to unite. however, all attempts at creating alliances so far have failed, since both sides in most attempts hate eachother too much to agree to anything that might help the other. now, as far as military movements go, i have personally been preparing an assault from the sea at the Industrialist Capital, which the Dwarves' new armour may be especially handy for. the Demonic Fleet is also at the mercy of our water magic, though we still have the Leviathans to deal with". Morian said "I have been planning to send a Spy into one of the Industrialist's major cities. i intend for her to get close to the Governor in charge of that City, and capture him through her. then, we'll have access to the Industrialist's most secret plans as long as it isn't discovered that he is within our control". Rutus looked around at the Dragons, and finally growled "We intend to send in a few mages which we have granted special Earth Magic artifacts, into the Industrialist towns to place the artifacts in the gardens there. the artifacts will grant me the power to make the trees and plants in those cities drain everything from the ground, killing off crops and their food supplies, and making the trees almost as hard as steel, making them nearly impregnable to blades. they'd need cannons just to cut down a single tree. it would cripple their industry. i also intend to use the artifacts to give me the power to make mines cave in, cutting off their supplies of ore and therefore, their source of blades and ammunition for their cannons". Inferno nodded. "And what about you, Emperor Drionach? what do you intend to do?"...
"Ah yes, organised chaos. the sign of a clever but ever-busy mind. To the perpetrator, a carefully woven web of belongings and intrigue, but to the bystander? Madness!"
