While Rebecca was making her apologies,Daku was launching an inquiry.
"Why didn't we hear from the watch tower that the nargs were coming?" Daku demanded.
"We don't know general ma'am we sent out a scout an hour ago. He should be getting back soon." A Major answered.
"GENERAL" the scout shouted running up the hill.
"What is it lieutenant?" Daku asked.
"They're all dead." The scout panted
"What?" Daku asked gravely
"They are all dead that's why didn't we didn't hear from them. They were killed by a piksa party." The scout answered showing Daku an black striped arrow with a blood red feather.
Daku stood in grave silence,and no one dare broke it.
"Double the men posted there. And send a pair of scout to check in every half hour . There's no telling if they'll strike again." Daku said solemnly.
"Ok general" the major replied.
"We need to report to the Queen. She needs to know." Daku said quietly.
"Yes she does." The major replied
"Well better rip off the bandaid.". Daku's tone clearly indicated that she was not looking forward to it.
