A small amount of people sat in the meeting hall in the Castle. They included the 3 Princesses, Duck de Steelhorn, and the Supreme Commander of all of Equestria's military, the Griffon Ironclaws. The rest of the High Council had not been called as they were still attending to the various sectors of the Empire they managed, but the 5 currently in the chamber were Equestria's war council.

"I advise we do not help with the Imperials, we lost a entire fleet and a Dreadnought, and while we have begun churning out replacements for both, if we assist we will be very weakened. The Triarians could use such a opportunity and finally finish us. If we avoid helping and only defend ourselves we can build up enough and the Triarians would not be able to strike us, as they be weakened by there war with the Imperials." spoke Ironclaw.

"But Lakfalle has been our friends for so long, it is likely they will call for our help." responded Twilight

"We realize this but we are in no position, Ironclaws is right, we need to prepare for further Triarian offensive" said Duck de Steelhorn

"Then are we all in favor of defending ourselves and not assisting with the Imperials?" spoke Luna.

They all agreed, leaving the chamber to attend to there various duties.
