Master Of None

"You're telling me that you brought an entire army all the way here to meet us and you want to just turn around?" Alma looked at the frost elf as if she had just been told the most ridiculous thing in the world. The frost elf reacted much the same saying it.

"The ice queen has specified that we are not to battle in a human war…The words are in this letter as well." The ice elf commander had led two hundred ice elves to well outside of Genesis to meet up with Alma and her army of joint elves.

"Under no circumstance will my pure elves join any one sided battle where they shall be shields for humans. They are only allowed to participate in peace keeping efforts that will ensure the safety of nature and flow of water to ice through the seasons." Alma read it out loud. She looked at the commander who just shrugged a little.

"Do you interpret this to mean that you and your soldiers are not allowed to join all the other races AND the humans to defend the border? Does this sound like you are being told not to free an oppressed people from a system that causes many to suffer and die?" The pressure that Alma put the frost elf under was brutal.

"I would say they will be coming. They know that the water elves have joined you already. That is their only concern. They may have different states of water, but they want to rejoin with all the water elves." An elf wearing rune patterned clothing spoke softly next to Alma. the slightly lofty attitude made Alma want to cringe.

"Yes, I know this. I was just ensuring that we would not have anyone that might just fly away when we get there. The army will march all the way to the demon lord themselves and take them down." Alma had met up with the wind elves somehow.

Specifically, she had found that the letters and representatives sent to their city found that they had changed greatly. There were no longer kings or queens for the wind elves. They had switched to a council of elders at some point after the passing of their last queen. This led them to have a slightly different opinion of the other elves. But what brought them to side with Alma was that she mentioned the governing of Genesis. A council of all races. Now they were watching Alma's every move carefully.

"No one would dare fly away from such a cause. Freeing others is one way for everyone to free themselves of the chains we have holding us in place." The wind elf was one of the commanding elves sent by their wind elf council of elders. But they had constantly tried to undermine Alma thus far.

For a moment, Alma thought that chaining up such an annoying elf would save her sanity. Even more, it would most likely stop them from interrupting the forces already at the battle. "If you attempt to test my patience further, I will allow for the wandering wind elves to take the role I have offered your city on Genesis council leadership. Do not believe that I will accept those that attempt to bring harm to the home I have helped build." Alma's words were solid. Many that heard them felt a slight chill. Even the frost elves did not dare step on her toes.

"Let me be clear to all the archers, spell blades, and mages here. You are coming to defend the rights of a joined people. Not just elves but monster races, demi-humans, merfolk, elemental spirits, humans, dragons, dwarves, and I am sure more in the future! You are not behind me to make the elves the best and top race in the world. That will never happen while equality is the goal between races!"

The sudden announcement made every single elf freeze. They heard the boom of Alma's voice and from the wind elf mages' reactions, the elf in command was at a loss. They had no way to keep their position with so much support for Alma's goals.

What pushed things over the top were the reactions from the frost elves. They had left their forever frozen homes to make sure that they were able to see a future where all elves joined again. Where they might be able to bring their high elven heritage to the forefront of their races. Many of the oldest elves remembered the stories and records of the high elves.

The reason a high elf was so revered was not many. It was very simple, they had the ability to be in tune with nature, unlike any other elf. They became mages, powerful natural sorcerers, and spectacular healers.

"I just wish the light elves were anywhere to be found." Alma mumbled this since she felt that they were missing too much.

"The light elves aren't even on this continent. They left and that's why we have their city. They left behind a record of the light elemental mana becoming weaker in this continent and left across the oceans." The wind elf smirked while saying this in response to Alma's mumbling.

"Then we will sport them out next. The wyverns coming from across the oceans are the next big problem to handle after the demons are freed from oppression." The sudden exclamation from Alma was the first thing that truly stunned the wind elf commander. They had not expected such a goal or next step to exist.

To say the least, Alma felt powerful. She felt that nothing in the world could stop her and the joint elven forces that had been pushing toward the borders. They may have just left the city recently, but they were on their way. They would be right behind Scylla by only a half a day.
