"I would like to introduce you all to our heir of Ormshire Castle, Prince Balthazar Farrowleaf! I must ask you all to aid him in his quest. It is very important that we gather an army against his hometown and help him reclaim his throne. His father was great to us and died defending us. I would ask you all to say what you all are thinking."
All the elves just look at each other and then back at Balthazar a few times. Then one elf, Maleth, spoke.
"All these years we try to keep ourselves alive and hidden. Now you ask us to die? Firin will hit us in great numbers. This is not a wise decision!"
"Maleth, listen to me!" King Falduin said. "Balthazar's people died to save us! We will do what we can to help this man. We owe it to him."
"My king, I don't know why you would take this risk for our whole race. I will most certainly die. I am certain I will."
"Enough Maleth! I looked to our future. We can win this war. With your army of elven wizards and my army of soldiers and archers, victory is possible.
Balthazar just sat and listened. Soon after, there was a brief silence. King Falduin got up quickly after and walked to Balthazar.
"Balthazar, what do you think?"
"I would love to lead us all to victory! One by one, marching into my castle with all my strength to put Farin where he began."
"Then let us do so! Together, we can stop this wretched evil and take it to an end." King Falduin said anxiously. "Let's prepare!"
Soon after, Balthazar, King Falduin and the elven army left towards Ormshire Castle.
