Even he realized, of course, that the Vosyes Mountain was the backdoor to Aude. Hyarmenion knew perhaps all too well that they had wanted to leave themselves with a retreat. A general who left their forces with no retreat was a very poor one indeed.<br/><br/>"Tell me, isn't Grado inside of neutral territory? If they were to try to retreat and flee there, then they might be considered enemy aggressor forces." Apparently the elf was thinking that they should force the Imperial troops to consider only Grado as a real place to go in an emergency.<br/><br/>If they had did that, then his military strategies could have potentially taken a backseat to some of his political maneuverings. Apparently he held this position because he had become good at both fields of combat, as one might have called it.<br/><br/>Turning back toward her, it would have seemed that Hyarmenion himself was looking for more input. He wasn't going to say anything to Sorin unless he completely understood both the situation as well as her thinking, so he always wanted to make sure to defer to her first before he said anything else.<br/><br/>Just like her, though, his priority was capturing Rausten.
