"Sit down and shut up, keep running your mouth and our kingdom will be up in flames." He snapped, continuing to speak. "Most of you should know me, I see a few people I know in here from being the guards at my cell or the ones who've joined me in missions. If not, i'm Gale Hummendeaus, name should ring a bell or two.

I was at his camp, having plans on killing him before hearing the information i'm about to share. He's planning a countdown, five days five attacks. First day is five kills, then four, then three, then two, and finally, one. Now what happens on the sixth day, you may ask." He paused, gaze hardening. "He invades."

Those three will lead their own groups, only the most elite knights we have."
