Title.

He Is furious.
That's actually reductive. Seeing his little brother's face on a wanted sign, hearing the Emperor inconclusive blabbing on how these kids need to be harshly punished for their 'crime', being thrown sh*t at from his adversaries in the court, who try to get him dismissed... he could scare a Balrog.
As if this situation wasn't obnoxious enough, the North, as their usual, send WonPil's ID to Xhuanghen to warn that they took him prisoner. And Sao can bet his ass that his grandson had to be involved in all that matter too, since he would have absolutely no other reason to be anywhere close to northern soldiers.

With WuXin unreachable, HyunPil totally unaware and his list of potential witnesses being close to empty, he summons the only person he thinks to have some clue on the happening: TiHao.
It's been three days from the mess.
The location of the meeting is a totally desolated and uncommon place, where they won't risk to be watched or to come across some random passerby. Very late at night.
Sao knows someone could be trying to keep an eye on him and he doesn't have any intention to feed speculations.

WhereAmber "It's too easy to invent that it's the will of the gods, it's what everyone says when they don't have anything better. Even if it was true, unless Shii came.down herself to testify, nobody will believe it."
He shakes his head. "Not even the Crown Prince is, but he has two generals on his side. Feng's opinion might even be ignored, considering he is at the front."
He nods at his words. "I trust you. You are the only one I can trust entirely. I know you won't disappoint me."
He looks up. "They know he was caught by the northern. There is no way to keep him out of the matter."
He likes the idea to target the two adults. "Adults should know better."

Yokai "It'd be hard to believe. If only they could see Shiinden they'd see it can only be created by a God. They'd better not bring it up at all. The only reason was ending the war.
I'm glad he took a position at least. With WonPil and Kun involved, I could only stand with him." Before to confirm he wants to be sure Sao thinks the same.
"I'm honored, daejang." He really feels flattered but he can't focus on it right now.
"But he won't disappoint. He won't betray his nation, I know him well." The fact is that he trusts WonPil but doesn't know how he could react, since northern might involve tortures too.
"Ne. Their names should be BoonMe and Xika." He is a up for it too. XD

WhereAmber "They should learn their place. It's not up to them to influence such matters." And just to prove him wrong, Mortian will hear and take their message very clearly.
"I have no choice but to be on his side too, regardless what Jeonha will think about it." He can't risk something bad to happen to WuXin. His only real worry.
"You will need a solid plan. They won't let you in and out so easily." The northern, he means. "It has proven impossible even to send spies." Since none of them can turn into a fox.
"I'll be proud of him, if it's so." It'd also be the first time.
"I'll find all that can be gathered about those two." LaNi is up for it too. XD
"You should go now. The sooner you find him, the higher chances he is alive and worth coming back."

Yokai "How long has it been though..." He says very thoughtfully. "We didn't achieve anything all this time in their territories." It takes a lot for someone like him to realize but it happened.
He is very surprised to hear it from Sao. "I'll stand with you too. Should you need any kind of support.
Ne. I think I'll risk it all and try to get captured by them. They'll more likely leave me be, in Heinmenhos, if they think I'm a no one but then I'd have less chances to make it alive." He actually has a plan already but it involves Shiinden and can't let Sao know.
"He deserves to hear you are proud." Well, he appreciates, he doesn't see why WonPil shouldn't.
"Ne. I'll go for it. How are we going to keep in touch with each other once I'm there?"

WhereAmber "We are not here to discuss about this." All in all, he wouldn't even mind too much if the war ended, so that he could meet with his friend Eddie again. He can't admit, though.
"The more people against Jeonha, the better. It could also be a good step towards his abdication, it would be about time." And he is aware he could lose his role as General.
"You can't afford to lose your life, keep that in mind." He'd come to the halls to punish him.
"He will, in that case."
He shakes his head. "We can't keep in touch. You will be alone. There is no way to communicate between the two countries."
