Admittedly, Hyarmenion was a bit disappointed. He had honestly hoped that there would have been a bit of last minute intelligence so that they could have gotten some sort of an edge on the competition. Nevertheless, he figured that in this case no news might very well have been good news. It certainly had also meant that the Imperial Army hadn't made any other significant gains that they had heard about just yet.<br/><br/>"I appreciate the vote of confidence, and I'll do everything I can to see this through. I figure that we should be able to capture the city intact. It would, indeed, be quite valuable and our borders might indeed be redrawn after the war to reflect the new territory."<br/><br/>Having these kinds of gains wouldn't have made the war worthwhile, as nothing could have done that. However, it would have made their country much more secure for the future.<br/><br/>Soon enough he found himself turning around once again, and hoping to continue to walk with Rubii as he had been previously asked. Lowering his head, he finally smiled and blinked for a moment. "Honestly you do, then, and you're not just saying that to me? That means the entire world to me."<br/><br/>It honestly did at this point.
