Alongside the Imperial host ..the army assigned to deal with the Hollows ..an emergency council was convened near the field where Frey Starlight had fought his last battle.
It looked like a meeting from the outside, but in truth it was a hearing .. an inquiry held to hear the truth straight from Frey Starlight's mouth: what had happened, and what exactly had caused that much devastation.
On paper, the session was chaired by Gal Varion Sunlight, commander of that front, with several ranking officers at his side. Most of Frey's friends were present as well, gathered close behind him.
Within minutes, Frey took his seat across from Gal. The latter chose his words a hundred times before speaking, unsure how to handle someone whose power so vastly eclipsed his own.
