While he wasn't used to being questioned, Hyarmenion wasn't really going to take offensive from it because Sorin had been the one doubting him. Once more, since he trusted her authority he wasn't going to make too much of a scene out of it.<br/><br/>He didn't have any relatives there, and figured that honesty would certainly have been the best when dealing with this issue.<br/><br/>"Have you actually seen many elves there?" It was his way of saying that there were few. That would have made sense why he didn't have any relative who could be with him there.<br/><br/>"If you want, then I'll just accompany you here and I can serve in a diplomatic capacity later. Regardless, all of this sitting around and talking is costing us time."<br/><br/>While he wasn't attempting to talk back to her at all, Hyarmenion soon did let out a careful exhalation as he thought over what it was that he had wanted to see. He was carefully thinking of how to phrase the next part.<br/><br/>Naturally, he was something of a man of action and he would have done whatever it took to disable out the Imperial Army.<br/><br/>"If you had anything else to throw in the mix while we're thinking, then please do of course. Even if it contradicts me, you know that I'll listen to you."<br/><br/>Eventually he shut his eyes, trying to think as fast as he could. As an elf, he had an uncanny ability to stay fairly calm under stress, and therefore these moments weren't frantic but instead were genuinely quite helpful.<br/><br/>They were very often when many of his best ideas had a tendency to inch up to the surface.<br/><br/>One thing was absolutely sure to him, though, and that was the fact that they were eventually going to triumph over the Imperial Army no matter what had happened.
