"A war council," I replied. "Comprised of those who actually fight, not those who only talk. Warriors, healers, strategists, people who are in touch with reality and not people who sit in their glass houses all day drinking wine. People chosen for their skills, not their bloodlines."

"Yes!" I nodded. "Tell me, when was the last time the council advised me on anything that turned out good? Even after changing the previous council members with you all, I needed to surround myself with people I thought were good, but you are as bad as the previous council members."

"That's not true, Alpha..."

"Not a performance," I corrected. "A long overdue change."
