Queen Eliza POV

I opened the door to the meeting room to find everyone arguing. As I walk in everyone silences,even my 2nd in command, Talia.
"Hello queen Elizabeth" I hear the gaurds say. I walk in and sit in my seat and announce,

"The squids are getting more vigilant every day. We need to fix this."

"I agree, I think we need to bomb them and get rid of them once and for all." Talia speaks up after a moment of silence.

"No, that wouldn't be right", the Queens advisor,Britt, says.

Peter, the war lords 2nd in-command, says,
" I agree we need to bomb them."

"Of course you think that", peace commander Mia retorts.

"It's not my fault I love bombing things."

"We can't waist our Octolads on some stupid squids."

"Or the Octojumps, or the Octochoppers" Queen Eliza states. We all look at Talia and ask her for the head count of evils the squids have done.

"They have killed 100 and they have stolen over 50 souls. I would bomb them now and free the souls."

I become very worried as I realize stealing souls is very tedious job. Squids shouldn't have the endurance to fix a soul in place. I immediately pipe up,

"I agree but we can't go bombing everything we don't like."

Talia says again,

"It's for the good of the kingdom. If we don't they could come kill any of us."

Mia says,

"They can't get past our defenses, we don't need to bomb them and start a war. Maybe I can go make a treaty with them.

Peter talks again,

"They are squids they won't listen to a stupid peace treaty, we need to bomb them, now!"

I speak up,

"Who died and made you war lord?"

I see Talia stiffen at the thought of dying. And I remember her parents were killed by squids. When they tried to make a peace treaty over at the squids hideout.

I speak,

"Maybe we could send a few NotOctos, our stealth bots."

Talia speaks up,

"That is one of the best ideas in the room i'll send them out right away."

She walks out of the room with all her gear on. Peter follows obviously angered at the situation. Peter runs back in and grabs his OctoReaper, a syth with a bended handle and a chain at the bottom, and he runs out with it.

"I think we are done here." I say quickly. Everyone walks out of the room and the gaurds shut the door behind me. I head to the dining hall and everyone is already there and we eat in silence.
