The King was a tall man with long black hair that framed a tough-looking face, and even amongst the Generals, he possessed an aura of power that made him stand out! The king looked around at the surprised looks on the faces of his generals and continued speaking.
"The Witch has been a pain in our side for more than a decade now. If we continue to pull our punches, then we will lose this war. I believe the civilians themselves would wish for this madness to end as soon as possible, so if we need to kill a few of them to ensure the others are safe, then that is what we will do."
The generals all nodded along as they heard the confidence in the King's voice! They had already been prepared for something like this from the start, since they knew it was inevitable, so they quickly accepted their King's plan. One of the Generals on the right-hand side of the table finally spoke up.
"There is something else I found, my King. Bring him in."
