We know that they think we will attempt the direct plan of attack, but as my Mate pointed out to me, if we arrive from the other side, they would not see us arriving. We could come up behind them and take the element of surprise away from them.
Regina is astonishingly smart at war maneuvers. She must have been studying up on this while; she suffered so much alone time when I am out patrolling, thought Rynok. As Rynok is laying out his plan in his mind, he is aware that his Mate seems to be sorrowful.
Rynok asked her, "Amore Mio, what is making you so upset? Regina answers, " I feel pulled between my children and my obligation for our home. And also, to be with my Mate. I just want the war to be over, so we can be family for just a little while."
"Let us get through this conflict, and maybe we could spend some time with the children in the mountains," said Rynok. " It has plenty of room, and we can still have alone time when they are sleeping, and we can instruct them some of the human traits as we as the dragon ones how, does that sound?" Rynok asked Regina.
Regina wrapped her arms around her husband and said, "la MIA vita (my life) that sounds perfect!" Rynok raises one eyebrow and askes her, " when did you start to learn Italian?" Regina smiles. And said, " a woman can have many secrets, my love."
" So, how many warriors are we taking?" Regina asked. Rynok replied, " he is calling on all reserves and those on leave for anything other than medical." "What about Barzulik?" Regina asked. "He is on medical," replied Rynok.
"He will be distressed with you, and you know it," Regina tells him.
" What he is doing is so important to the future of Dragonstone. He can be frantic, but he must finish what he started with his Mate," Rynok said. "My father will join as my second, and since he trained me, I am well- aware of how his mind thinks as he is mine."
Regina thinks about that and agrees it is the right thing to do. But she knows it will be difficult for Barzulik to stay home. She also knew Caroline would help keep him calm and appreciate what Rynok was doing. They needed to stay together during the transition.
Regina walked into the war room to see Tyr in with his son, and they were going over every option. And then she heard Rynok say, " Let's get Regina's opinions on this. She is damn smart when it comes to planning an attack.
Tyr looked at his son and said, " What are you talking about?" Rynok told his father, "his Mate is the one who came up with the idea of coming up from the rear instead of heading straight into a firefight." Now, it was Tyr's turn to be impressed.
Rynok noticed Regina. And told her, " come here, Amore and see what we came up with and help us determine which one would give them the best possibility to succeed." Regina walked over and studied each plan and noticed that if you combine two of them. They would improve their chances considerably.
Regina said, " If you take this system and add this method together, we will almost guarantee a win." " They will never think to cover both the back and the sides." Tyr said, "Damn, that is brilliant." Regina asked, " How many dragons did they have, and do we have enough to split into three groups?"
Rynok replies, "I shall be leading the charge from behind, with Tyr leading the attacking group from the East. I have an old war friend of mine, Draker, who shall be leading a squad from the West. Each squad will consist of 4 dragons. One dragon's strength can fell 100 foes single-handedly. 12 should be more than enough to crush TLFP and stop their insolent show of heroism. Rynok said, "I will let Draker know of the strategy so he can inform his 3 soldiers." "Tyr, go collect your three." Tyr nodded, "Yes, sir." "My love," continued Rynok, "let us go find us a couple of friends to fight with. We must hurry their planet Ymir is closing in fast."
Walking out of the war room, a couple of over-eager dragon warriors waiting, leaned up across the hall from the war room door. Rynok looks at them questioningly. "Yes? Can I help you?" Snapping to attention, the soldiers replied, "Captain, we would like to join you in this fight, my name is Norak, and my partner here is Marnia."
Rynok nods," Very well, you will assist Regina and me, stick close, and don't do anything rash." He turns and walks down the corridor to prepare for the landing. Regina watches him depart until he's out of earshot and looks back towards the couple. "Don't mind him; he's just distracted with the thought of the upcoming battle. We greatly appreciate your help Norak and Marnia." With a gentle smile, she motions for them to follow her as she heads to catch up with Rynok. The warning lights for imminent landing starting to go off as we enter Ymir's atmosphere. The battle is moments away.
