Internal Conflict: Betrayal in the Ranks

X796

Hyperion exited the meeting room in Othrys. "That war council could've gone better," he said to Cronus.

"They all have their own ambitions and goals," said Cronus, "and they each plan on using the Alliance to further those goals. Even after we've conquered Ishgar, I'm sure they wouldn't intentionally start a fight amongst each other.  The fighting would only deter them from their goals.  Take Guang for example, he simply wishes to protect his home land."

"As do we sir," said Hyperion, "although we also wish to expand."

"Precisely. Now, I'll be heading to my quarters.  Account for the other generals in the alliance." Cronus suddenly disappeared.

Hyperion's body turned to light as he flew around the compound. Everyone had already been accounted for, except for Guang. Due to his immense speed it didn't take long for him to locate the master, near the outskirts of Othrys. "What are you doing all the way out here Guang? Did you get lost.  The other masters are back in the center of the city." Hyperion had a bad feeling about Guang's intentions.
