"He says… if one of his breaks a rule, he will punish."
Zakaar translated Gruumak's words and for the next few seconds, silence fell over the place.
"Good."
Finally, Morvain nodded, pulling the rest of the Council Elders out of their reveries. Then she leaned back and let her eyes close for half a second.
When she opened them again, she spoke the next topic.
"The water incident."
The table tightened immediately.
Even after a long day, that word still carried a… sharp edge.
After all, something happened.
Something that almost broke the fragile peace between the two sides and while Kael did intervene, the Council members… they still needed more, clearer details about the matter.
Morvain looked at Kael, expecting an answer.
But…
"It was taken care of."
Kael spoke without any change in his expression.
No stories.
No details.
No blame.
Just a simple statement that made it clear he had no intention of explaining anything. And honestly, that was the best way to handle this.
