The Cabal (Sorcerry RP)

[Frisk E. Coyote]

Ace gently nodded once, accepting everyone's points. He respected every one of the masters in the room irregardless of age, power, stance, or experience; everyone in the room was equal. One of the lion's ears flicked lightly as he felt the faint presence of magic being used. It was familiar too, curious, impatient perhaps? It was probably just Master Rath's apprentice again. "I suggest we learn more about our enemy first, what weapons they have developed to fight us, and what risks and stakes an all-out war would cost us. Perhaps we can start training spies?"

"Are you implying we use subterfuge? Like cowards?!" The white tiger growled. "I'm with Dark! I say we strike them, and strike them hard! We use every destructive force of magic we know, and wipe them out before they develop even better weapons with their pitiful 'science'!" Prometheus gripped his armrest until it splintered in his powerful paw. "We should make an example of them, we should show everyone who would dare oppose us the price they would pay if they dared challenge us!"

Ace shut his eyes and sighed quietly, interlacing his fingers together and lowering his head behind them. Master Tyranus was one of those sorcerers who believed that they were much better than people who could not use magic. "Master Cathors and Master Dakaruka do make strong arguments, however, Master Tyranus. I agree that observation and patience are the keys to victory. Taking into account everyone's proposals, it is my humble opinion that we make use of subterfuge to learn more about our enemy, and perhaps sabotage their defenses. Knowledge is power after all, and you do so prize power, don't you?" The lion chuckled.

Tyranus growled, but said nothing, sitting up and crossing his arms childishly.

"We must know our enemies." Ace added simply. "And when we do, we'll know what, when, how and where to defend, and when we have proven ourselves an indomitable bastion of unity, we use the same strategy and attack. The tactic I propose involves whittling down their forces as they attack us until they do not have enough to defend against us. I also humbly suggest that from now on, members of our Cabal do not travel on their own." The Dark Arts Master concluded. "It is one thing to be accompanied by the coven, or loyal apprentices and students, but members of the Cabal should travel in twos or threes. These are dangerous times, after all... there is no telling what may come for us. With two or more masters, there is a far larger chance of survival."
