After my talk with Liseti, we both picked up our pace a little in order to be prepared.
Every centiter of height that could be added and every bit of stabilization the applicant could provide along the line was aningful, as it would add up to our defense.
Unsurprisingly, it was only a question of ti until the enemy was once again right at our doorstep.
The fact that we basically ruined all of their months-long war progress was apparently nothing they would just take.
I an, in my opinion, they can be glad that we didn't push further.
The city of Neria is quite close and aside from the ager defensive garrison on the other side would've been quite exposed.
Especially, as walls don't do all that much to impede flying units.
Getting through the gates wouldn't have been all that impossible.
Yet actually invading the city proper would have caused issues.
Not knowing how the citizens, who see themselves as part of Koreso, would've reacted to our forces, fights within the narrow alleys would’ve to be expected.
It would've very likely ended in chaos.
Not to speak of that we chose this line for a reason.
It's the best defensive position we could hope for, as they'll have to overco everything we prepared in order to get on the other side.
An effort I wouldn't recomnd undertaking.
Anyways, there they are.
Putting up their camps on the other side of the river.
Though, what worries are the war machines they're preparing.
Fierce-looking things that will apparently propel heavy bolts in our direction.

At this, Liseti gives a look that is almost offensive.
You know, the kind that says "I can't believe you just said that, I took you for soone smarter".

Can she please get to the point?

Alright.
So this ans our wall will stand.
That the applicant can't get shattered is rather new to , but not unwelco to hear about.
We continue discussing our defense strategy, always making sure not to provide a target for those machines.
My own guards in particular are rather insistent that I shouldn't unnecessarily expose myself.
It might be their heightened intelligence that makes them interfere with my decisions, which could be part of the reason why I didn't see other princesses use such a kind of enhancent for their royal guard as much.
In any case, our solution for a possible assault is a rather simple one.
We'll just make thicker walls.
The main problem might be if whatever they throw at us could have enough force to destroy parts of the wall or our cover.
While the applicant should do its job, it's obvious that the structure needs also to be sturdy as a whole.
Fortunately, we have the numbers to make this happen.
Eventually, a human ssenger cos running.
Sotis I'd wish they would finally internalize our ssenger system.
It's far more efficient if the one delivering the ssage can cross the distance flying in a fraction of the ti a runner requires.
However, a hunter-based system would probably still be far quicker.
If they could morize pheromone ssages that is.
Nonetheless, we obviously still receive him.
Albeit the instant he fears for his life because of our accumulated escorts causes another unnecessary delay.
"Yes? What is it?" (E)
"L-Lord Stormheart wishes to see you at the platform of the main garrison. He says it's urgent." (ssenger)
