"Let this meeting of the Council of Amaria begin." Ordered the Chairman and all became silent. "We have enjoyed many years of peace thanks to Kalith's father Storm. We also have a surplus of supplies and I believe it would be wise to share them with our neighboring kingdoms." "Quit your jabbering and tell us why you called us here, you old Thunderbird." shouted the phoenix next to Kalith. "Silence Flame." said the griffin next to Kalith, Griff was his name. "Be quiet you old feather duster." "Respect your elders." "I am your elder." "Not in this life." "Silence all of you!" Thunder the Chairman commanded. "Yes sir." They said and quieted down.

  "Now, for the reason I have called this meeting," Announced Thunder. "Our citizens and troops have been attacked in our city of Greenleaf." Gasps were heard around the room. "This is insane." someone shouted. "Outrageous." Another agreed. "How are we supposed to believe that someone attacked an Amarian city, much less for no reason." Challenged an elder. "It's true." said Kalith. "I could see the smoke from Greenleaf on the way here." More screams of anger could be heard.

   If someone were to walk by the council center, they would run away in panic because of all the yelling. The door guards are trying to calm the people around the council center. 

   "Silence!" commanded Thunder, and all was quiet. "We need to save our energy for the fight against the enemy!" Loud cheers followed his announcement.
