Past the mountains that was in between the KA (Kingdom of Albion) was the nations that formed the ARE.

Currently in a massive room was their council. who were arguing about their lands and trade but they mainly focused on the war with the KA.

They were talking about different plans of attack with their generals and places they should try to defend, most people
were mainly focusing on what they could do with the KA's land and resources if they manage to defeat them.

Many people were arguing what to do with the KA's massive treasury, abundant resources and their much superior technology which they are getting a bit to excited about even though they are in a middle of a stalemate.

"Sending troops to attack the Screaming Palace is suicide councillor Fredrick, that place has been heavily fortified and it's filled with Albion's mechanical abominations, our troops would be ripped to shreds. what is going through your head to make you think we should attack that fortress ! " A woman with black hair in a ponytail with green eyes and red skin argued with a tall man with a bold head with the same skin and eye colour, they and everyone else in the room was wearing a black uniform with the logo of the ARE which was a silver castle surrounded broken chains.

"Your idea of attacking Albion's factorise through bombing raids are much worse Councillor Morgan, our bombers will be shot down before they even get close to the mountains that block off Albion, hell any aerial assault would be stupid, their planes have proper metal armour on them, we're just barely making planes made from metal and its a bitch to get them to fly !" Councillor Fredrik retorted

A random councillor who nobody cares about looks at them "Why not a naval assault, we completely outnumber them and we can easily take out their capital that way, it was what their king did to dethrone his brother." everyone looked at him and were dumbfounded, they would have said something if the doors didn't slam open, the doors hitting a chicken and sending it flying into the void.

Walking towards the councillors was all yellow Pegasus with a lighting bolt as a cutie mark and a green Gryphon with a bent beak who both walked to the centre of the room and bowed.

"Presenting representatives the from the ANE, Lady Thunder Hoof and Sir Strong Beak !" A guard announced to the council.

Councillor Fredrik turned to look at the newcomers "So these are the brave men and women who fought against the KA, we applauds you for your efforts even though you were pushed back"

"Our reports said you outnumbered Albion's defence fleet but something happened that destroyed nearly all of your fleet. what happened ?" Councillor Morgan asked the two delegates

Sir Strong Beak stood up "After our princesses failed to dispose of their king who we have heavily underestimated. Our fleet under the command of Captain Chicken Beak was attacked by a extremely powerful beam of what the reports said as a type of magic we have never encountered before." Strong Beak gave passed several pieces of paper to the Councillors. "The beam decimated the fleet and then the thing that fired it went on to... teleport into the middle of the fleet an-"

"IMPOSSIBLE !" The random Councillor from earlier, Councillor Christopher a man with blonde hair and brown eyes with tanned skin shouted" A SHIP THIS SIZED SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO FLOAT, LET ALONE TELEPORT SEVERAL MILES !"

"Believe me sir that ship teleported just look at the remains of out fleet and the camera footage we got from the few survivors." Thunder Hoof explained to Councillor Christopher.

A few servants brought in an Albion made projector (one of the many luxuries that was provided to them when they used to trade with Albion) and flicked it on.

The projected showed footage of the ANE fleet being torn apart by the black ship.

Strong Beak looked at the video and then back to the Councillors "As you can see, this ship is insanely powerful as it tore apart our finest ships and it caused our fleet to focus on it and completely ignore the advancing KA fleet which turned this into an outright slaughter." The whole room gasped as they saw the Black ship fired its main gun which erased an entire group of ships from existence.

"Well then Christopher, it looks like your plan to invade Albion from the sea has just become worse then Fredrik's plan to attack the Screaming Palace. That monster would destroy our fleet." Councillor Morgan Groaned "Does anyone have a solution that could break this damn stalemate besides demanding surrender and attacking worthless targets that would only drain our resources." Morgan glared at Fredrik

Thunder Hoof raised her hand which grabbed the Councillors Attention." I propose an Alliance. We will combine our forces and attack Albion from several fronts and overwhelm their defences."

The Councillors whispered among each other before Councillor Christopher spoke up.

"Why should we form an alliance with you. Your just some random nation that we haven't met that decided to get involved in a war against an industrial and military giant." The Councillor argued.

"Because forming an Alliance would be the best chance for both out nations survival because I'm pretty sure you have noticed that Albion has a massive and technologically advanced war machine that makes both of ours look like a bunch of savages who haven't left their caves yet. The only reason there is a stalemate is because you have the terrain in your favour but eventually the KA would just find other ways to invade you and then they will come storming down on us but if we both unite and combine our militaries and technology we will stand a chance against this threat and overthrow their tyrannical rule." Strong Beak said with a strong heart.

"Hmm maybe your right." Everyone looked up to see a man with white robes with gold stitching's gazed down at Strong beak. He was the High Councillor. "Eventually the KA will destroy us one way or another and if we don't get help we will be overwhelmed. it seems the enemy of our enemy is or friend." The High Councillor looked away from Strong Beak and stared at the Councillors. "Everyone not in favour of forming an Alliance may leave the room."

One councillor got up he was the Councillor of Umon'hon a nation that was east of Albion and Aurora so it didn't suffer much from the war with the KA.

"I WILL NOT HAVE MY PEOPLE INTERMINGLE WITH SUCH ABOMINATIONS. MY NATION IS LEAVING THIS WAR AND THIS COUNCIL YOU HAVE GIVEN OUR NATION NOTHING BUT MAKE US A TARGET FOR A GIANT !" The Councillor stormed out.

Another Councillor sighed before calmly walking out, she was the Councillor of the South Islands a nation next to the Uninhabited Lands which puts them under threat of the KA who are expanding down that area.

A minute later and no other Councillor left.

"Then it is concluded next week we will officially sign a deal with the ANE and form the United Nations of Ergon !"
