The Forest Elf Queen spoke wordlessly.
As a border nation of the Human Race, military preparedness has always been of utmost importance; some things can be feigned, but the numbers of the Standing Army can absolutely not be falsified.
"Big sister, the Human Race is the most cunning and deceitful. They wouldn't be playing word games with us, would they?
They speak of arms reduction, but behind the scenes they might expand their military. That's something they would do!"
The Prairie Elf Queen said with disdain.
According to the experience of the Elf Race in dealing with Humans, all promises and contracts are time-limited.
One year they may play at arms reduction, and in a few years after a power shift, they might play at military expansion. It's nothing new.
Because of the lifespan differences between the two species, to the elves, all Humans are unreliable.
