The Elven High Council look at one another speaking in hushed tones as the deliberate the matter. "In a vote of ten to three your audience has been accepted. You are not the only Montherian here on a diplomatic mission Bertrand so state your King's wishes quickly." A female said this time as the council adjusted themselves in their chairs.
*Bertrand takes the floor*
Over the past decades since the last Great Race War, humans and elves have formed a close friendship and alliance, more so than with other races.
We have shared technology. Innovation. Magic. We've advanced, through cooperation, our own Races' place in this world...
I shall spare you the details, for you are all most likely old enough to remember such things *he sneers a little*
Elders of the Elven Council of Ellestrazia, I come before you today representing Montheria and humanity. Under decree of my King, I have come to claim the contested lands that border our two countries!
*the Council starts murmuring in disapproval and begin to protest. Bertrand silences them with a wave of his hand*
I did not come unprepared! This is not a coercion of any means! We humans will be willing to negotiate acceptable terms for us in exchange for such a proposal!
What say you, Council? Surely you cannot refuse for the sake of racial harmony and peace?
(It has begun. Remember Miakoda owns this land)
