"So, my family, your three tribes, and the Children have entered the Labyrinth to do something about the Hydra? I get that part. But why the war?" Zach asked.
Maura rolled her eyes.
"With our history, would you expect anything else? The Evandiels left their posts, and we needed to enter the Empire. It was a natural flow of events," she answered lazily.
Zach wasn't satisfied.
"Couldn't you have told everyone about the Hydra? Couldn't you have talked with, I don't know, the Emperor? Maybe cooperated to deal with a greater threat or something?" He pressed.
A lot of lives had already been lost, and by Maura's words, it was seemingly for nothing. The war was a hoax. A front for something else.
How could Zach not be angry?
But he realized something else and spoke before Maura could answer.
"And why did the Children interfere in the war?" He asked in a chilly tone.
