Even though they were simply preparing, the idea of a war did not sound fun at all. Hopefully Blackfall would keep their distance and not make any rash decisions. Elias had fled the United States to live out a better life for himself, so he didn't want to get caught up in more trouble (whether it has to do with the environment or politics or not).
The talk of spying and militarizing made a small frown tug at Eli's lips, and more nervous energy began to well up inside of him. Elias was but a simple a barkeeper — he wasn't prepared for war. He wasn't prepared for bloodshed. Would he ever be?
His attention was caught on a hook when Bianca's name was mentioned, and his brown gaze snapped over towards the younger woman. A general? Wow, he thought. Elias had never considered the idea of aspiring to be anything but a bartender, so for one of his kinda-friends to be promoted was pretty surprising to him. What would Bianca's duties be, he wondered. Would she head the army?
Before he knew it, Eli's own name was mentioned by the sovereign and he straightened up, not expecting this kind of attention at all. He glanced around at the people surrounding him, as they were staring, and he shrugged. "Ah, yeah. Of course." Elias answered, speaking formally in the presence of the leader, of course. He briefly caught Bianca's gaze and a ghost of a grin appeared on his lips before fading off. His mind was still on the whole war situation, and it was giving him feelings of uneasiness.
