Lind felt backed into a corner.
His wife was kidnapped but beyond his reach. He could get to her but the price would no doubt be very high. His Clan had burned many bridges to stop a war that was used as a pretense to strip the Under Lands bare.
It would have recovered but it would not have mattered for all the dead that would be left behind afterwards.
There were not enough resources to go around and the slaughter would only benefit a handful of Sovereign Tiers.
Lind was so tired of it all on that fact alone, but he was also fairly young compared to other Immortals. He had time they did not.
The meeting was adjourned as the Frey Clan had to return to protect their lands from the coming reprisals.
