Tarwin's smile widened as he was praised by the prince, leaning against the wall he felt a warm buzz going through him. "Well someone had to make sure they didn't block off your escape route." It was almost enough to make him forget he'd not earned a single penny through risking his life. He continued to smile, looking over the familiar faces in the room before turning to watch the prince finish his talk. He noted the support the prince received from the other former prisoners. 

Though Tarwin himself didn't say yay or neigh he decided to accompany the prince to the war room, after all it didn't seem right to just abandon them all right after he arrived. It wasn't like he had anything better to do either, the ruins that he thought would be his gold mine turned out to be the operating base of a prince who for all intense and purpose was planning a revolution, a coup, a rebellion, so it wasn't like he had any plans. Maybe he would join up, if not for the moral reasons of building a better and freer nation of peace, bridging the feud between humans and elves as well as getting rid of a corrupt king, then for the potential profit! Aiding the prince could potentially earn him a title, an estate, money, tax immunity?! Yes there was a lot of profit he might make, now all he needed to do was get involved and make a name for himself, get recognition. 

Tarwin stayed near the back of the war room for the duration of the briefing, taking and folding up one of the older maps before stuffing it into his pocket while nobody was looking and hoping he'd be able to sell it or examine it at a later date. After all was said and done he stepped forward, moving to the centre of the room next to one of the larger maps and smiling. "Ladies and gentlemen, tacticians and warriors. Let me start by saying I'm honoured to be in your presence but time is of the essence so I'll make my words swift." He gestured towards the prince on his throne. "You are our main concern at present, this war will be no good if we have no leader and so I believe any who might be able to aid Aevah should do so, it may also be beneficial if she and her team try to rally support for our campaign while they're over there, after all the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Though I'd advise only sending a few people who aren't part of their kin, if any." Waving his hand to point at the fields north of the citadel on the map he continued. "Rolling with that I suggest we seek aid from the nomads of these plains, decent fighters and men with many connections, they've struggled under the king's oppression and would likely aid us. If you wish I could go and speak with them, they're my people and I'd have a good chance of convincing them." He moved his hand over to the ruins of Ahya on the map. "I would also be happy to aid in the second and third phases of your assault on the ruins and supplies, I'm no great warrior but I can certainly handle myself in a fight and would be proud to lend my blade to the conflict." He looked up to the prince. "Finally, and I realise this may be bold, but I consider myself a fairly charismatic and creative person. If you find yourself short on leaders or advisors I'd like to put myself forward." With the display over Tarwin bowed his head slightly and stepped back away from the table, smiling confidently and giving a half hearted and casual salute.
