“But I will be honest with you. Don’t underestimate Samkiel. As much as you and I hate him, he is volatile and unpredictable. There is a reason he was King of Rashearim for so long. Most beings would rather slit their throats than face him on a battlefield. Even Nismera has avoided fighting him herself because she knows it, too. When speaking of war with him, brute strength won’t cut it. He’d win.”
