Audra (http://furry.booru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=287486) Farhowl (http://plothook.net/RPG/profiler/view.php?id=12963) listened to her lieutenants, sargent, and priestess discuss the current insurgency situation. She sipped at her ale, staring at the map while soaking in the various viewpoints. She hardly knew the women sitting at the table with her, but Audra was able to come to a few conclusions during the march to Candid. The fox twins she would go to when she needed some actual thinking to be done. If she wanted nothing left standing, she would briefly consult the horse before sending her on her way. When talks were possible...well, she supposed she could send the lizard.<br/><br/>It took the wolf some effort to lock down her scoff at the priest's suggestion for a peaceful solution. "These insurgents have been attacking Cane army attachments. From the reports they don't seem to care too much about taking our weapons or looting our supplies. They mean us harm and sowing discontent. I think our course of action is clear," Audra thought that laying out the situation a bit further would help support the decision she was going to make. "Lieutenant Mi'anna, I will shelve your idea for future use, but right now Lieutenant Li'anna is right: I won't commit any troops to any plans until I know the lay of the land a bit more. Li'anna, prepare the scouts tonight and commence the survey. Don't take any unnecessary risks. They likely know a sizable force is camped by Candid by now; we're not exactly hard to miss."<br/><br/>Just over 50 troops. That was what Audra was commanding. It might not be a legion, but knowing she had 50 lives to watch over and use...it was a bit unnerving. Part of her wondered if the four council members that voted against her promotion were perhaps right...
