"The regalia are important, you are wise to remind me of that. If he 
sees them in an army drawing up to face him then I think he will have no 
choice but to array agains them. If the force appears to be retreating 
away to the North West then you might even avoid a battle long enough 
for our friends to arrive but the risk is that he might instead take the 
city if you do not offer battle. Then we would be lost without hope."

------------------------------------------

- "Aalmon, then what do you propose for the seshnelan strenghts in Segurane ? asked Azhur. If we want to use the surprise of the conversion to our views of the rokari City, we have to keep them in the city. If we strike in the evening, we will have no rest and have to defend ourselves all night long against infatigable numerous undeads and vampires at their maximal power... I think that any exhausted survivor left in the morning will make then an easy prey for Nolos mercenaries, even flooded."

Azhur though a litte more:
- "Then what about an attack in the morning after? They will be nearer, perhaps diminished, delayed and disorganized by the flood, an small event seen as just a last nasty surprise form the elves, but still feeling strong with Segurane waiting for them, while in fact their mighty holy night will be behind them... We attack them with all our sorcerers, infantrymen and surviving skirmishers regrouped during the night, all of them lead by a few fresh dismounted knights in light armor. This assault will not be really for victory, even if surprise may help us a lot, but just to delay them and save time for the telmori to come. We retreat as slowly as possible into Segurane, this to defend the city after... Here we have the strong support of the heavy mounted chivalry in a prepared area... When the first enemy units arrive near Segurane, we launch the city knighthood in a hard shock.... Mhmmm...the most difficult point would be to convince all rokari knights
 to be the last ones in the battle while normaly customs put them at the most glorious position on the front line, but customs don't usually make you defend your city in a new enchanted forest... Mhmmm I will have to reveal them that one of the secrets of the Sparrowhawk Knight Order is to accept with humility the most efficient position instead of the most glorious one. I will also probably have to manage the most hot headed knights by sending them on foot in the first assault.... Does this sound better, Aalmon?"

With a last thought, he added:
- "I don't know how to use cleverly and surely the telmori in this proposal. Karala is there with them, if they don't come in the right time, after the full moon night, we will have to rely on the desesperate plan B including the seshnela regalia used to lure Theoblanc and leading him in Wilkairtha's refuge. Only one person is able to make sure that the bait goes directly into the telmori warband... I fear it is me because only me can read on the Banner of Red Valor where Karala will be and then go directly to her position, wherever she is, still in the village or running to Segurane, east along the river or west through the forest... of course your support there, my friends, will be absolutly welcomed, especially Icthya who can lead us in the depth of this wild forest with ease... I hope we will not have to use this option!"
