"Trying to eliminate the only thing holding your clan back?" Damon almost laughed. "I heard about your troubles in the sky. Tengu goes last."
That part for Damon was non-negotiable. Ayame already told him how the Tengu clan countered the Dragon Clan's ability to rule the skies. If it wasn't for that, all the other clans would've long fallen. He wasn't going to give Yoru an advantage he wasn't ready to deal with yet."
She watched him for a couple of moments before slowly rising to her feet. "You dare negotiate?" she asked in a tone that would make any dragon or beast from this world crumble.
"No," he shook his head. "I'm not negotiating. Tengu goes last."
Yoru approached him with an expression that made him unsure what to expect. She paused only a step before him, her eyes never leaving his.
"Then we start with Phoenix," she finally said. "Any more questions?"
"Just one. Why are we here? Shouldn't we make a move before the others find out about our alliance?"
